[Sweet, Delicate Queen * Fierce Daddy Chancellor]
Yue Yin is the youngest daughter of the King of Yue. Adored by everyone, she lives a carefree life, but there is one person she fears above all: the chancellor at her father's side.
The chancellor stands eight chi tall and commands respect without even trying. With an iron fist, he governs the state with impeccable order. Just one glance from his dark eyes is enough to make anyone tremble.
So from childhood, Yue Yin has done her best to stay away from him.
Later, rebels rise in revolt, and her parents and elder brother are all killed in the palace. To preserve the Yue bloodline and kingdom, Yue Yin follows her father's final wish, disguises herself as a man, and takes the throne in her brother's name.
From then on, under Xiao Jingxing's supervision, Yue Yin has no choice but to study the art of governing. The pampered little princess of the past now spends day and night reviewing memorials, riding horses, and practicing archery. It is sheer misery.
Yet Xiao Jingxing seems never to regard her as a woman. He never shows her the slightest tenderness, and even when he changes her clothes after she falls into the water, his expression does not change.
As time goes by, Yue Yin's heart fills with grievances. At last, she gathers her courage and calls Xiao Jingxing to her room, hinting at her complaint:
"I am grateful for the chancellor's guidance. Today, I learned a new phrase from a book, and I would like to teach it to you."
Xiao Jingxing takes the bamboo slip. The four characters written on it are unmistakably: "cherish beauty and show tenderness."
Before she can react, a pair of arms suddenly encircles her waist and lifts her onto the desk. The man's low, hoarse voice, accompanied by warm, damp breath, brushes against her neck.
"I don't understand, so I hope Your Majesty will teach me by example."

At first, Xiao Jingxing looks at the little princess, who barely reaches his shoulder, and says calmly, "I have no interest in a little girl who still has milk on her breath."
Later, when Yue Yin becomes ruler, Xiao Jingxing always observes the rules between sovereign and subject, restraining himself and never crossing the line. "I would never dare entertain improper thoughts about Your Majesty."
But later, Xiao Jingxing discovers that the young woman is soft and delicate. After getting a taste for her again and again...
He can't get enough.
