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.

Poisoned
Li Xueyue warily walked into the darkness holding a lantern in front of her. It was so dark in here, and she wondered how exactly Yu Zhen was able to see without a lantern of his own.
"Here, give me that," Yu Zhen said whilst sticking a hand out for her lantern.
Li Xueyue's heart raced in disbelief. She didn't want to part from the lantern—the only thing that reassured her. Without it, it would be like losing her security blanket.
Tightening her grip on his hand, Li Xueyue resolutely shook her head. "No."
Yu Zhen softly laughed. He turned his head, knowing she was too terrified of the darkness to part from her light source. But some sacrifices had to be made. She stared up at him with sheer defiance. But her lips trembled and jutted out in a tiny pout.
"It'll be alright, Sunshine," Yu Zhen gently said. He reached a hand out and tenderly touched the side of her face but she recoiled back and shook her head.
"No. I need this lantern."
