An-Ying Lili, who is known for her kindness and beauty, is the princess of Juyan City. She could not see her family die at the hands of Han Sheng Li so agreed with the marriage alliance which was put forward by the Emperor of Han. ~~~~ “I heard you are the kindest woman in the entire Han Kingdom but, it seems opposite to me. You want me to die!!” The Crown Prince astonishingly said, keeping his icy gaze intact on the woman on his bed. “Cruel people are not worthy of anyone’s kindness,” the Crown princess pronounced sternly. The crown prince chuckled. “Kindest is the one who whimpers in pain. Are you ready for undergoing that pain with this cruel man?” Crown prince asked, slightly tilting his head, and a smirk formed on his lips. Leaning closer to Ying Lili's ear, Sheng Li whispered, "Never expect love from this evil and cruel man. Feed this in your mind- 'You will never warm my bed.' Remember this memorable wedding night, my dear Crown Princess." ~~~~~~ Thanks to "LydiaF" for proofreading the chapters for me. Thanks to My CE for this amazing Title suggestion.

Everyone said that the Second Miss of the Jiang Family was ethereally charming, virtuous, and as pure and kind as a white Lotus Flower. Dressed in resplendent red, he asked with a smile, "White Lotus Flower? She's clearly a Man-eating Flower that devours without spitting out bones." Jiang Li, "Duke, be careful not to break your hand." Jih Heng, "Such a ferocious Man-eating Flower is, of course, to be snatched up and brought back to my estate to guard it." Arrogantly beautiful man vs. noble daughter, a bewitching male lead and a white lotus heroine, join forces, tormenting the whole world. Are you scared yet?
