On the night of a lunar eclipse, Xie Wan was marked as the ill-fated lone star.
Growing up in a Taoist temple, Xie Wan returned home to find herself without her parents. She faced external threats from vicious wolves while dealing with younger brothers crying for food.
To make matters worse, her biased grandmother had her heart set on driving Xie Wan out of the residence.
A certain man said, "Enough with the preambles, get to the point!"
"Oh," Xie Wan smiled faintly, "the point is, I've taken a liking to someone. I'll plan step by step, enticing him, using his influence to establish my family's power, and employing his help to uncover the truth."
The man wasn't pleased, "Aren't you supposed to seize the opportunity and take me down?"
Xie Wan replied calmly, "No hurry, no hurry. What's in the bowl won't go cold, even if we wait to eat it later."
The man retorted, "I feel pretty urgent though."
Xie Wan: ...

The Marquis's Daughter Seduced the Prince, and He Can't Resist Anymore

Xie Wan wasn't quite sure why she was considered part of their group. However, she didn't show any reaction on her face and took a seat.


Sun Mei poured a cup of tea for her and said, "This is the finest Mengding Ganlu tea. Give it a try."


Xie Wan took a sip of the tea and immediately praised, "It's delicate and fragrant, like sipping a cloud. The aroma lingers and doesn't dissipate. This tea is truly extraordinary."


Just as her words fell, Zheng Yu burst into laughter and reached out to Sun Yiyi, "Willing to bet, willing to admit defeat. A hundred taels on the line!"


Sun Yiyi snorted lightly and took out a hundred taels of silver notes from her clothing, handing them to him, "Here, take it!"


With the silver notes in hand, Zheng Yu's smile grew even wider, and he cheerfully pocketed the money.


Curious, Xie Wan looked at Zheng Yu and then at Sun Yiyi. She asked, "What's this all about?"


No Quarrel, No Acquaintance
