Adelaide had risked her life in exchange for playing the role of the Duchess, but she never had any intention of loving Klaus.

He was a Northern noble with an elegant facade, yet lacking in any true nobility. Dealing with such a Duke was always a source of embarrassment for Adelaide, who had lived her whole life as a noble lady.

They were merely using each other. So there was no way that this could be love, just something as insignificant as that.

“You mean something to me.”

The more she fell for him, the deeper she fell, everything became a mess. Like an uncontrollable fire.

“Do you have any value other than yourself?”

Klaus sharply rebuked her with his lips against her throat.

“I want everything from you, even your very breath. How is this not love?”

“You’re completely insane…”

In the worst possible way, you made me realize. The fact that all we have left between us is nothing but hatred. <<less

This isn’t a love-at-first-sight story!

“Boss! Miss Mu is back!”

“Got it.” The man responds indifferently.

“Boss, someone gave Miss Mu a bouquet of roses!”

“Adulterer! Humph!” The man finally raises his head, narrows his eyes, and snorts.

“Boss, Miss. Mu and that man watched a movie today, had a candlelight dinner, and…”

She was quiet, petite, wearing glasses, had thin eyebrows, and her presence was faint.

She was different from the other girls who always approached him. She was silent and indifferent. It was as if she didn’t exist, yet there were traces of her everywhere.

Bai Lu calculated every step she took, carefully in control of the pace. Neither hot nor cold. Like a shadow.  

She said: “You knew that you are different.”

Xu Hui smiled humorlessly, his body shifting. He sat up straight. The smile on his face had not dissipated. He said nonchalantly, “How so? Do I have two heads?”

Bai Lu’s voice fell lightly on Xu Hui’s lashes, “You know that it’s so easy for people to fall for you.”

Xu Hui froze. <<less

The turbulence of the world fostered us, whose existence upon joining jianghu going by as quick as a blink.*

"In this world where war erupts throughout, jianghu is a cycle of vengeance and retribution. You either persist, or you perish."

Many years ago, a young Chu Xiwei who recently joined the sect was chilled to the bone by those words he happened to have heard.

Seeing that his young disciple was scared quite enough, Ye Fusheng leisurely sipped his tea, "What I just said is pure nonsense."

Every young chivalrous individuals joining jianghu would happen upon one martial art scroll or another. Ye Fusheng was so often tricked by this preconception in his younger years that when he got older, he decided to hoard other people's scrolls.

Legends would never fade with the withering time, just as hatred would not disappear in a peaceful age.

The Mu family, who wanted to marry the young patriarch of the Huo family at the beginning, had no way out because the heads of the two families who had a good relationship in the past swore a heart oath. ... more>>

So, the wedding was held as scheduled. Although the oath could not be violated, it did not specify the name of the person to marry.

Huo Jue, the useless man whose spiritual platform has collapsed, knew that his bride had changed, and the new bride was also planted with puppet voodoo.

Huo Jue also knew about the fact that the Mu family wanted to let her steal the Huo family's top-grade magic item.

One month into their marriage, the little puppet sneaked into Huo Jue's room in the middle of the night and hurriedly moved to Huo Jue's bedside.

What Huo Jue was waiting for was for the puppet of the Mu family to show her true colors. He was lying on the bed while breathing slowly, and his subordinates were all outside the door, waiting for his signal.

As long as the puppet dared to touch the spiritual item on his neck, she would be taken down on the spot.

Unexpectedly, the puppet approached Huo Jue, half-kneeled, lowered her head to follow Huo Jue's hand that was placed in front of her and kissed his fingertips warmly.

Then she got up, jumped three times on the spot, and danced silently in the room like a madman.

Huo Jue, "..."
