Han Sheng Li is the Crown Prince of the Great Han kingdom. Since the age of fourteen, he mostly went to the wars with his father, Han Wenji, the great emperor of the Han Kingdom. He's the most favored child of his father but, is the cruelest and ruthless among all of his seven half brothers. 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.

Sheng Li had lit the oil lamps inside the lanterns. The porch was illuminated with red lanterns. Ying Lili was still on the stool, waiting for Sheng Li to sit. As soon as he was done, he came to Ying Lili and sat opposite her, facing her. "Aren't we going to play a board game?" Sheng Li queried.
Ying Lili shook her head. "I have changed my mind. We will have our dinner first and then we will drink," Ying Lili pronounced. She called Xing-Fu and told him to send the dinner for them.
Sheng Li opened the lid of the jar and smelled the wine. "It is a strong one," Sheng Li lifted his eyes and looked at Ying Lili, "Are you planning to get drunk?"
"No. Brother Wanxi told me that you like this wine. Last time I had wine with you, which was stronger than this. I will not get drunk this time," Ying Lili confidently replied. The maidservants came there and served them dinner. Tasting the food, they told the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess to start.
