Xiao Shuyi came from the finest branch of the Xiao clan, but she wasn't the Crown Prince's beloved. Wei Chengzhao looked down on Xiao Shuyi, yet he knew she was the best choice.
Xiao Shuyi didn't care what Wei Chengzhao thought. She only made the choices most beneficial to the Xiao clan.
It was spring, yet snow fell over Yujing. War raged beyond the city, and Wei Chengzhao looked distraught, his gaze anguished. "A Ling, you're the only one who has ever truly treated me well."
Xiao Shuyi stepped back half a pace and sighed. "See? You still can't read people."
The sounds of fighting outside fell silent. The great hall's doors opened, and daylight poured in.
The figure entering against the light was exceptionally tall, and still far too handsome. His sword was coated in dark red, drops falling onto the floor with every step. It was a chilling sight.
Xiao Shuyi thought, not without regret: See? This is what happens to a gambler.
She should have known when she chose the cowardly Crown Prince all those years ago. She had underestimated the Qi clan.
"A Ling, I told you. Nothing can stop me."
The young man's features were stunning, and his voice was soft. "So what if the imperial throne is ordained by heaven? What can heaven do to me?"
I just want to write a silly little love story about someone seeing the real you, every last part of you, and loving you anyway simply because you're you.
Still a 1v1 with both leads' first times. Because I really love this kind of setup.
Theme: Don't let outside forces change you. Staying true to yourself will pay off.
It looks good, I need to write more Otherwise you will forget Come on
