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.

Deciding to change the topic, Li Xueyue asked, "Where did Yu Zhen go?"
"Oh, that's a good question. I lost track of him," Li Chenyang said, looking around in confusion. "Maybe he went home on his own?"
Li Xueyue examined their surroundings and noticed the majority of the guests had already left. Only a few lingered behind to have a final word with Marquis Ning who stood by the door and Ning Huabing who was bidding everyone goodbye. The large garden was quite empty, and Yu Zhen was nowhere in sight.
Li Xueyue wasn't sure if she wanted him to see her in this state. "He came with us, do you think he'd have a carriage to take him to wherever he's staying?" She didn't mean to sound so worried about him, but it just came out like that.
Li Chenyang laughed a bit and pinched her cheek.
"Try to not show you're so worried about a man. They'll like you more if you do," he teased her while placing a hand on her upper back to guide her towards the front entrance.
