* The powerful one bows his head; the delicate beauty turns ruthless
* At first, he saw her only as a tool. He never imagined he would one day love her to the depths of his soul.
Ming Wu had secretly loved Lu Yuan for a long time.
But he was the powerful prime minister who held the empire in his grasp, peerlessly handsome and exalted in status. She was merely a merchant's daughter who was neglected by her family.
She thought they would never cross paths in this lifetime. She never imagined she would actually marry him.
After they married, he was cold, taciturn, and distant. Even in bed, when passion took hold, his eyes remained cold.
But she thought that was simply his nature. If she treated him well, one day he would come to love her.
Until he brought home a woman and let her live in the courtyard reserved for the principal wife.
The calligraphy she had begged him for countless times but never received was brazenly hung in the main hall by that woman.
Only then did she realize that he wasn't simply cold by nature. He just didn't love her.
He had even married her only because her unusual constitution made her suitable for cultivating a separation gu. Once the gu matured, he would take her blood and give it to that woman.
-
Lu Yuan was emotionally detached and ruthless, with his whole heart set on governing the empire. To him, love and romance were nothing but unnecessary distractions.
Until that day, when she lay quietly on the bed, allowing the separation gu to drain her blood. The light had vanished from her eyes.
At that moment, he, who had always been as steady as a mountain, panicked. He broke the gu's development, heedless of the consequences.
He thought he still had a chance to make it up to her, but he never imagined she would be so resolute.
A great fire consumed everything.
All that remained was the charred black lacquered jewelry box she treasured most. Inside were letters she had written to another man.
For the first time, Lu Yuan tasted the heart-devouring burn of jealousy. From then on, he suffered nightmares every night and torment every day.
-
He saw Ming Wu again at Prince Ning's wedding banquet. The wind lifted her red bridal veil, revealing the face he had missed so desperately.
She swept her indifferent gaze over him as if he were a complete stranger.
Lu Yuan's eyes instantly reddened, his heart consumed by madness...

The male protagonist's explanation is so funny, sister-in-law? He pampers his sister-in-law like clouds in the sky and tramples his wife into dirt on the ground. You also planted voodoo on your wife and drew her blood for your sister-in-law - who believes that you have never loved your sister-in-law in your heart?
It's been almost a month, I've forgotten all the plot, and it's been a week since I said I would resume updating [oh oh oh]
Is the male protagonist clean, but the female protagonist is unclean?
It's so painful... When are you going to run?
In this historic moment, in this great moment, author, have you seen my sincere heart?

The scumbag man and the bitch girl lock up just right. The heroine is cowardly and weak, and the man is even more scumbag and disgusting. After reading it, I felt like I had eaten history.
Suddenly I felt that the heroine was so cheap, she had been deceived and used, but she could still be moved. A horse could be bought with a few meals. She deserved to be treated casually by the hero and even used her to treat the female partner. You have put yourself so low, do you expect others to look up to you? And if you want to learn how to ride a horse, can you only find a male protagonist? In the final analysis, it is not a matter of refusing but welcoming. It's simply not too common.
I don't want two men, I want 1v1 🙏
