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

Dowager Empress Chen looked at Xie Wan, then at Li Yu, her expression growing heavy.


Her youngest son had always been a man of few words. Even in his most rebellious years, he preferred actions over words. To say the least, she had never heard him speak this much at once!


Even when Xin Qingwan entered the palace, and she asked for his opinion, he had simply said, "I have no objections, Mother."


But now, he was talking confidently, all for Xie Wan's sake. It was as if he was afraid that she might label Xie Wan with the ill-fated curse and sever his connection with her.


However, Dowager Empress Chen wasn't paying too much attention to this right now. Her mind was fixated on Xie Wan's words about the curse.


She looked at Xie Wan, and her heart raced. Memories that she had sealed away for a long time, things she didn't dare to think about, suddenly surged back.
