After thinking it over carefully, Su Yushan corrected, "You weren't here yesterday."
Hongli chuckled and said, "I stayed in the palace last night, I couldn't possibly just find any palace maid, could I?"
Su Yushan pondered for a moment and said, "If I were to encounter someone who is beautiful, it wouldn't be impossible."
Looking at the beauty beside him, Hongli raised his hand and gently stroked her soft cheek with his thumb. "In terms of looks, who can compare to you?"

Hongli's almost vow-like promises kept knocking on her heart. When her inherent view of love clashed with the ancient rules, what would Su Yushan do?
Should you stubbornly stick to your own opinion and continue to guard your heart to avoid being hurt, or should you compromise, bravely choose to believe in him, and love passionately without asking about the outcome?
