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.

Words of Gratitude
"Well, you girls stay in here and finish the embroidery ring. I will prepare my special tea and bring it in," Duchess Wang Qixing said as she glanced over at her daughters.
She hoped this abrupt alone time would force them to bond—something that might never happen if an opportunity wasn't created for them.
Li Xueyue rapidly blinked at the Duchess's obvious schemes. Usually, her mother would call for a servant to boil water whilst she took out her large box of ingredients to brew tea.
But very well. If that was what Duchess Wang Qixing wanted to do, Xueyue wouldn't stop her mother.
'Besides, I doubt Minghua would still have the guts to hurt me when no one is watching,' she thought to herself.
"What flavor would it be?" Li Xueyue asked when Duchess Wang Qixing rose to her feet.
"It's a secret," Duchess Wang Qixing responded with a wink. She reached over and pinched Xueyue's cheek before affectionately patting Minghua's upper back.
