The Young Lady Elopes, and the Unhinged Power Minister Won't Stop Pursuing Her

After her father fell in battle, Ji Xian was left alone to live under the roof of the He family, walking on eggshells.

He Yuanzheng, the He family's legitimate son, was graceful and admired by all as a young chief minister. He was also her sworn elder brother.

He gave her shelter.

Yet she glimpsed the desire to control her beneath the gentle restraints he placed around her.

Their love took a wrong turn: she fell into it with no way back, while he had laid his plans step by step.

When he was to marry a noblewoman from another powerful family, he personally chose a suitable match for her and pushed her toward another man.

He thought he had everything under control.

But only when the red wedding candles lit up her bridal chamber did he learn what it meant to lose control.

Casting off every disguise, he fixed her with a possessive gaze. "Come with me, or I'll take you with me."
