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 blinked innocently, "I'm here."


Li Yu's face turned cold, and he said in a cold tone, "I see you've learned quite a bit from Li Ze!"


This is bad! This is like lifting a stone to smash your own foot, bringing up something you shouldn't have!


Xie Wan hurriedly said, "You're misunderstanding me. Early on, I had someone from the palace deliver a message to you. On that day, I didn't see anything. Moreover, I gave you the chest wrap first; Li Ze's incident happened later. There's no way I could have learned anything from him."


"The Daoist philosophy emphasizes the harmony of Yin and Yang. Throughout history, there's been a practice of dual cultivation. I just happen to know a bit more about it. It's within reason, don't you think?"


Upon hearing this, Li Yu's expression improved slightly, but only by a bit.


Some things must be faced and resolved; otherwise, the knot will become deeper and turn into an unbreakable deadlock.


I Can't Help It
