The Rise of Xueyue
"What do you want from me?" "Everything. Your soul, your body, your heart, but above all, I want you. Come to me, and you will be sheltered from every storm and hurricane that might come our way." - - - - - Like every pitiful protagonist, Xueyue's life was riddled with unfortunate events. An aloof birth mother? Check. A crazy father? Check. An older sister with a superior complex?Double-check! Through a twist of unfortunate events, Xueyue was sentenced to death by beating. And no, she did not reincarnate to a better life. Offered the opportunity to have a new identity, Xueyue eventually found herself colliding paths with a mischievous and fearsome, but devilishly handsome Commander who'd stop at nothing to acquire her heart. Will he succeed in doing so? Sly. Vicious. Ruthless. The very whisper of his name was enough for soldiers to abandon their weapon and armor in the battlefield. Yet, this merciless Commander found himself on wits-end with a sharp-tongued woman that turned his entire world into beautiful chaos. Many say love is a fleeting emotion, but to them, love is a constant devotion. - - - - - [WARNING: THERE IS MATURE CONTENT IN THIS STORY.] Note: This is an ORIGINAL story, and not a translation.

Incense Sticks
Li Xueyue didn't realize she had fallen asleep until the next morning arrived, completely unaware of the chaos that happened yesterday. She was dazed and confused, feeling something was strange. Her eyes were heavy and she could barely open her eyelids.
There was an unfamiliar scent in the room. It was heavy and was luring her back to sleep.
"Hmmm…?" Li Xueyue touched the empty spot beside her and groggily sat up with shut eyes. She patted the spot again, realizing it was cold as ice. Where exactly was Yu Zhen? Did he not return the entire night?
Li Xueyue was tired. What exactly was happening? She nearly couldn't even open her eyes out of sheer exhaustion. Finally, when she did so, she saw something burning beside her nightstand.
Li Xueyue rubbed at her heavy eyelids. Finally, her vision sharpened and she saw it. There was a small circular pot crafted of metal. Its legs were curled inwards, a design of a forest and cliff was carved into the pot.
