Thank you for subscribing 🥰 Novel blurb: Pei Lingyao, the daughter of the Minister of Works, had skin as white as snow and a beautiful face. She greeted everyone with a smile, and no one could help but soften toward her. At eighteen, an imperial decree ordered her to marry into the Eastern Palace. On their wedding day, the Crown Prince said in a stiff, formal manner, “Now that the wedding rites are complete, I shall treat the Crown Princess with due respect and follow the old customs. You and I must reside in separate halls...” Pei Lingyao’s gaze swept over the Crown Prince’s straight, sculpted nose and settled on his moist lower lip. What on earth is he babbling about? He’s so handsome. I want to kiss him! * The Crown Prince, Qin Sishen, was noble and self-possessed, devoted to matters of state. To him, marriage was simply a way of obeying his father’s command. But later... On the morning after their wedding, the Crown Princess leaned against his arm, preventing Qin Sishen from getting up to study. Looking at his wife sleeping soundly, he broke his long-standing habit of rising at the first hour of the day and thought: They wouldn’t be sharing a bed very often, so there was no need to disturb her sweet dreams. In the late autumn after their wedding, Qin Sishen was ordered to leave the capital. The Crown Princess gazed at him with sparkling eyes and tugged on his sleeve coquettishly. “Your Highness, don’t let the wind and snow hurt your face. Remember to write to me.” Qin Sishen, who had never wasted time writing letters home, understood how much the Crown Princess cared for him. He lowered his eyes and said nothing. When he reached Jiangnan, he gazed at the clouds drifting over a low mountain and, for no reason at all, thought of his wife’s eyes. That night, he took the initiative to write a letter to the capital, yet found himself an excuse in his heart: He did not miss his wife. He was merely worried that the Eastern Palace had not written because something had gone wrong with the courier, and that this might delay other important matters. In the late spring after their wedding, Pei Lingyao kept glancing at the newly named top scholar. “I heard that a few days ago, a group of scholars held a poetry banquet in the countryside...” Qin Sishen calmly interrupted her. “If there is another banquet, perhaps the Crown Princess and I should go together.” Scholars? Top scholar? None of them could compare to him. But Pei Lingyao turned away and politely declined. “Why have you suddenly taken an interest in amusements, Your Highness?” Qin Sishen was disappointed, but stubbornly covered it up. “I merely wanted to test their knowledge.” And later still... In the early summer after their wedding, Qin Sishen suddenly realized that Pei Lingyao cared about him only because of his face. He agonized over it alone for several days, but in the end, he surrendered to the clear gaze of his wife and bluntly revealed all his thoughts: “You always say I’m handsome... If one day I weren’t handsome anymore, would you stop liking me?” #Oh no! She might only like handsome faces #No matter, she can only like my face “Amid the endless snow, how fortunate I was that spring’s breeze carried me through.” Blurb for upcoming novel, After an Ordinary Girl and the Chosen One Share a Dream Ordinary girl x chosen one | Powerful man bows his head | Flirtatious push and pull | Sharing dreams | Faithful to each other, sweet romance Shen Yao lived in the Prince of Guangling’s residence. Plain-looking, quiet, and well-behaved, she was the least remarkable among all the young women in the household. If nothing unexpected happened, she would be married off to a minor official’s son or sent to a powerful family to become a concubine. But she was unwilling to accept that fate. One spring day, the rain fell with the rising tide, and fallen blossoms covered the courtyard. By a twist of fate, she entered the dream of Yuan Xu, heir to the Prince of Guangling. Yuan Xu was an extraordinary man, brilliant and accomplished in both letters and arms. Before the age of twenty, he had already won the emperor’s favor. There were many eminent families in Chang’an, and handsome young noblemen everywhere, but Yuan Xu of the Yuan family was still the most unattainable moon among them all. Shen Yao had always been ordinary, always followed the crowd. It was only natural that she, like everyone else, should have designs on Yuan Xu. She knew there was an unbridgeable chasm between them, so she devoted all her effort and used every means at her disposal. She never expected that, in their dreams later on, she would sit high on a jade terrace, looking down at the elegant, refined young man, and sigh, “Xu, why can’t you bear to leave me?” - Yuan Xu had been the model of an aristocrat since childhood, disciplined and courteous, untouched by worldly concerns. Until he met a young woman in his dreams. He was astonished by how perfectly their thoughts aligned, and, though he could hardly admit it, he lingered over her elusive closeness. Later, he discovered that the goddess-like woman in his dreams was merely the least remarkable cousin in his household, and that all their past moments of accord had been carefully orchestrated by her. Then, by chance, he heard she was already planning to leave him behind. Yuan Xu raised the corners of his mouth with interest, his gaze fixed on the young woman huddled in the corner. 1.
