Day and night cycle and seasons change; before we knew it, we had entered winter from late autumn.
Yu Qianqian sat in the bamboo pavilion, raised her hand and gently opened the window a crack. With a slight glance, she saw a world covered with silver flowers.
Her bright eyes lingered on the snow-covered landscape outside, which stretched as far as the eye could see. She watched as the snowflakes fell from the sky and condensed into frost flowers, mingling with the cold wind as they landed on her. The biting chill brought her back to reality, and she suddenly realized that it was already winter.
The world outside the window was freezing cold, but the room was warm as spring. Yu Qianqian felt very honored because Su Yu had placed a stove in the bamboo pavilion in advance when she noticed that the weather was getting colder. Her room was especially well-treated. The small room, which was not very spacious to begin with, had several empty corners with stoves.
Even in this freezing season, she never felt cold.
Yu Qianqian originally wanted to stay away from the palace and the scumbag Mu and live a peaceful life in seclusion. However, the handsome young prince was warm-hearted and affectionate. In order to pursue her, the first thing he did every morning was to go next door to ask about her well-being and take care of her daily life. There was never anything that could catch her eye that Su Yu could not do.
Yu Qianqian said that this was the first time in her life she had been treated like a queen. Su Yu was not only handsome, but also proficient in playing the zither, singing, writing, and painting. He was skilled in all these things that are rarely seen in men.
They took even better care of her than her own parents.
She sometimes thought to herself that if it weren't for how good this man had been to her in the past, she would have long since abandoned all conscience and taken him by force. Such a handsome man, who wouldn't be moved by him? If it were any other young girl now, she would be 100% overjoyed.
But she only thought about such things. After all, he was still a young and promising man who was inexperienced in the ways of the world. She would never do such a cruel thing, even if it meant her death.
With a slight ripple of thought, she looked down at her fingertips, which were red and translucent, as she stretched out the window. Only then did she slowly realize that her entire hand was almost numb from the cold.
She gently lifted her frozen hand, then slammed the window shut. She was immediately enveloped by the warm air from the room, and at the same time, she heard soft footsteps approaching from outside the door.
She turned around and took a closer look, and sure enough, as she had expected, the person in front of her was the handsome young man with silver hair and a green fur coat.
Su Yu tossed a strand of snow-white hair around his fingertip, his steady steps and every move causing his green robe and silver hair to flutter. As his gaze turned slightly toward her, a smile appeared on his exceptionally handsome face.
The room, which was originally empty, would have become dull and boring after a while, but now, because of his presence, everything within their sight became picturesque.
Su Yu was still recalling the look of utter despair he had seen on Yu Qianqian's face before he entered the room. But as he stepped into the room, a broad smile spread across his face as he looked at Yu Qianqian: "Little Qianqian, I've come to see you."
Seeing that she still didn't smile at all, Su Yu quickly smiled and changed the subject: "This snow came a little earlier than usual. A good snow promises a good harvest. I heard that this is a very good omen. It means that people living in this country will have a peaceful and happy life. As long as they smile every day, they will be blessed by the god of fortune."
