"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.

You Win
Once the Imperial Physician left, Yu Zhen ordered the servants to bring in their morning meal. It quickly came for no one dared to starve them. After a joyous meal, the tonic was boiled and served to Li Xueyue.
"It seems bitter," Yu Zhen commented. He lifted the teacup, examining the pungent drink.
"Really? I couldn't tell," Li Xueyue remarked. She watched as he blew on the drink, cooling it down for her.
Yu Zhen raised a brow. "You decide to be sarcastic as I'm helping you?"
"But I didn't ask for your help," she snapped, suddenly irritable by his question. She took the cup from his hand and placed it down.
Not a second later, she felt remorse for her abrupt attitude.
Li Xueyue turned his hand over to reveal his palm."What if you burn your fingers?" she worriedly said.
Her forefinger traced over the prominent lines, knowing they meant something.
Yu Zhen raised a brow. "It takes more than boiling tea in a cup to hurt me."
