All Under Heaven

With his kingdom fallen and his city lost, Su Hexue was captured and taken to Yingdu, where he became a plaything for the royal family.

Qin Shuo had seen him in the prisoner camp: skin and bones, covered in wounds. He was frail yet otherworldly, and the sort of person who would never bow and scrape to the powerful.

Su Hexue, the man who would never bow and scrape to the powerful, climbed into the ranks of the newly risen elite on the Crown Prince's coattails. Before long, he had thrown the political landscape into turmoil and stirred up endless strife at court.

Qin Shuo thought, This is a male fox spirit stirring up trouble wherever he goes, wrapped in the skin of an immortal!

Then, the very next moment, the fox spirit sent himself to Qin Shuo's bed.

With a curl of his lips, he pinned Su Hexue down on one knee and snarled, "I'm not like them. You can't just beckon and make me fall for you."

Qin Shuo had nearly crushed Su Hexue's chin in his grip, but his tone remained flippant. "I only let you have your way with me. Isn't that enough sincerity?"

Qin Shuo slowly lowered his hips and bit his ear, cruelly. "You chose this yourself. Don't regret it!"
