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."

Seeing her wasn't unexpected for Li Yu, but her choice of words made him furrow his brow. He stopped and played with the jade bead bracelet on his wrist. He flicked it slowly. "What are you looking for me for?"


Accustomed to his indifference, Xin Qingwan didn't find it unusual. They had been interacting like this since they first met. So, she smiled gently. "Brother Yu, could we find a quiet place to talk?"


On the side, Little Quan was itching to curse but held back, and as his master remained silent, he couldn't say anything, feeling aggrieved and lowering his head.


Fingers gently fiddling with a string of jade beads, Li Yu fell silent for a moment before nodding, "Alright."


Little Quan was somewhat surprised by his response, glancing at him. Li Yu lowered his gaze and put the jade beads back on his wrist, saying lightly, "Let's go."


At the mention of going, Xin Qingwan shyly agreed, silently following him as they walked towards the Imperial Garden.


As Always
