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.

Coward
Duke Li Taojun had expected so much more out of this conversation. He wanted to apologize for being so late in her life.
Duke Li Taojun wanted to form a father-daughter relationship with her. There was so much to be done, but he hadn't. He thought she'd at least hug him or shed a tear.
This encounter was a lot more painful than he anticipated. Who knew she'd be so heartless…? Who knew she was exactly like her mother?
"Don't you have any empathy for me, at all?" Duke Li Taojun demanded in a raised voice. He was hurt by her words.
"Don't flatter yourself," Li Xueyue said with a small laugh. "The only contribution you had in my life was bringing me into this world, which by the way, no thank you."
Duke Li Taojun was infuriated by her indifference. Was this how both families raised her to be? He was told she was a lot more humble and kinder than this. What had gotten into her?
