Ji Zhen Tang first saw Zhong Yu Bai at her boyfriend’s birthday banquet.... more>>

Amidst the clinking of glasses, the man sat calmly in the midst of swirling smoke, unruffled, quietly listening to the conversations around the table.

Her boyfriend leaned in to whisper to her, giving her a heads-up: “That’s my third uncle, don’t provoke him, I can’t handle it.”

On the same day of the birthday banquet, her boyfriend got drunk and embarrassed her in front of everyone.

Leaving the Zhong family mansion, she walked in the rain. Before long, an umbrella was held over her head, and Ji Zhen Tang looked back.

The person following her turned out to be the same uncle from earlier. The man smiled gently, with a comforting tone, “Let me walk with you a bit.”

–

Meeting her ex-boyfriend again at a friend’s gathering, they were now former lovers.

Ji Zhen Tang overheard her ex-boyfriend’s tone full of envy as he talked about his uncle, mentioning how Zhong Yu Bai bought a tea plantation in the prime land of the mountains and rivers for his little girlfriend.

People started gossiping, “Which woman is so lucky?”

Before anyone could finish their words, someone stepped in from outside. The man exuded an imposing aura, silencing the whole room.

Without paying attention to anyone else, Zhong Yu Bai walked straight to Ji Zhen Tang and gently embraced her.

“The feng shui of the mountains and rivers is suitable for begonias. Since she likes it, everything is negotiable.”

–

Ji Zhen Tang had heard about Zhong Yu Bai from others, portraying him as a high-status, gentle and wealthy man. Mr. Zhong was perfect in every aspect, except for being too ruthless and not understanding the meaning of compassion.

But she had clearly seen it. When she was sick, he patiently brewed medicine for her by the stove, gently massaging her numb and painful hand until late into the night.

He spoke words of comfort in the softest and gentlest manner, afraid of troubling her.

“Does it still hurt?”

Zhong Yu Bai listened with a smile, his eyes full of affection as he gazed at his sparrow—

“She is a bird, and I am not her cage.”

“I am her sanctuary.” <<less

In the Academy, where magic reigns supreme, I stand apart as the sole practitioner of the world's greatest martial arts.

There is a little-known secret in the Ji family of the Imperial Academy: the eldest daughter of the Ji family, unloved by her parents due to an inauspicious birth date, has a twin sister who has been lost and living elsewhere.... more>>

The two sisters, living vastly different lives, have developed contrasting personalities.

The elder sister is weak and easily bullied, simple and unsophisticated; the younger sister is vengeful, ruthless, and kills without blinking.

In the political turmoil of the court, disaster strikes the innocent.

The elder sister is schemed into marrying her father's archenemy—Ho Xian, the infamous Commandant who recognized a traitor as his father.

Huo Xian is notorious for his ruthless methods and association with eunuchs, despised by many. He is also infatuated with beauty, with a harem filled with countless concubines, each as cunning as the next.

While everyone was mourning for the elder sister's fate, little did they know that the one sitting in the bridal sedan heading to Huo household was no longer a meek and easily bullied innocent.

-

On the wedding night, facing her notorious husband, Ji Yuluo pretended to be frightened, trembling so much she fainted from fear.

Huo Xian found it boring and didn’t visit the inner courtyard for several days.

One day, by chance, he returned home and saw one of his beloved concubines struggling for help in the water while his timid new bride sat nearby, casually applying nail polish, and said nonchalantly, “What’s the rush? She won’t die.”

The other concubines knelt nearby, trembling as if they had seen a ghost.

Huo Xian watched with interest.

Later, he stared at the sparkling water droplets on the beauty’s neck, his gaze dark and unreadable—

"Tsk. She truly is an ancestor, my ancestor."

Huo Xian, despised by everyone, walked a path of betrayal and isolation until he met someone who, in the face of extreme danger, handed him a blade to cut through the waves.

- Even if my name is forgotten in history, I will stand by him.
