From the day he was born, it was destined that his life would be smooth sailing.
The only unfortunate thing was that he met her.
—Zhang Tongyang
I am the only son of the Prime Minister's family, and also the son born in his old age.
My father dotes on me, my mother loves me, and I have everything I want.
Spoiled and pampered, he was no different from any other spoiled brat.
The only consolation is that his parents instilled in him the right values.
At least he hasn't done those things like rape, robbery, or other crimes.
Occasionally, he would even lend a helping hand when he saw injustice on the road.
Therefore, Zhang Tongyang considered himself a breath of fresh air among the纨绔 (wan ku, spoiled brats), a truly good person among them.
However, he also had his unlucky moments.
That is because he carelessly fell into the hands of that great demon king.
He thoroughly humiliated him, finally showing him what it meant to be outmatched and capable.
From then on, he toned it down a bit.
However, he never expected to meet her.
That day, just like any other day, he ran into that kid Song Chi again.
They couldn't stand each other. He thought he was pretending to be a good person, but he couldn't stand the fact that he did things that had no bottom line.
And so, they started arguing right there in the street again.
But that person saw her at a glance.
Women of the Northern Dynasties.
I looked her up and down, trying to see what the difference was between this woman from the Northern Dynasty and the woman from the Southern Dynasty.
They look pretty much the same, there's no difference.
He considered himself a seasoned veteran; women are just like that.
But in the end, they are still different.
He actually got retaliated against? And even looked down upon!
That's when I truly started to take this woman seriously.
However, besides making him very unhappy, he also vaguely felt that she was right.
That's what annoys me the most.
Unexpectedly, it was she who came to his rescue at the restaurant.
She believed him!
Sometimes, even her own parents might not trust him, yet she actually believes him?
However, the more you understand her, the more you discover her magic.
She's not the kind of person you fall in love with at first sight, but she's the kind of person you fall deeper and deeper in love with.
Later, he vaguely realized that he felt differently about her.
But will he back down?
Of course not, he is Zhang Tongyang!
Is there anything else that can stump him?
If there's anything you don't understand or can't figure out, just go after it and ask.
So he followed her to the Great Wei.
I want to see if I truly care about her, or if it's just a passing curiosity or a fleeting infatuation.
But before she could verify his true feelings, she discovered a cruel truth.
She already has a fiancé.
For the first time, he felt ridiculous.
Without asking anything or knowing anything, he resolutely followed her to the Great Wei.
But now it has come to this.
That way, he will never regret it.
At least he tried, no matter what the outcome.
However, he also knew the outcome he had in mind.
He realized that he had probably really fallen for her.
Otherwise, how can one explain the excruciating pain in one's heart?
But he is Zhang Tongyang!
How could he give up so easily? There's nothing in this world that Zhang Tongyang can't do.
Besides, he believed he was no worse than anyone else.
But later he realized that liking someone doesn't depend on how good or bad you are.
As long as she likes it, that's the best.
He can never surpass her.
He could only admit defeat in front of her.
Seeing how protective she was of that man, unwilling to spare even a shred of pity for him.
Only then did he realize what a cruel woman she was.
How could he possibly fall for such a heartless woman?
He has changed so much that he himself has become unrecognizable. When did Zhang Tongyang fall so low that he needed to crave other people's pity?
He is Zhang Tongyang, who is fearless and unique!
He had to leave.
Otherwise, he might not even know what he would become.
That was the last time he and she saw each other.
Later, he was assigned by the Great Demon King to do a mission to the Witch Clan.
Of course, he agreed with it himself; he needed time to heal his wounds and needed to do something to numb himself.
Let yourself forget her.
But how can someone like that be easily forgotten?
Unexpectedly, he encountered her people in the witch clan.
Perhaps it was fate, and he could never escape it.
But since he saved her, doesn't that count as helping her too?
I wonder if she will ever think of him or mention him.
Then I thought, tch, that heartless woman, she wouldn't do that.
After hearing her story and knowing that she was doing well, he knew it was time for him to let go.
It's time for her to take on her own responsibilities; after all, she's the one who bears the heaviest responsibility.
So when I got back, I met the girl my mother had chosen for me.
She seems like a very nice person, a very gentle person.
This person will be his future wife.
Even if he doesn't love her, he will still take on the responsibilities of a husband and make her life better.
Later, we would occasionally hear news from the Northern Dynasty.
For example, the Northern Emperor has a young princess, the two countries have signed a century-long agreement, and the Northern Emperor has introduced new policies.
My wife seemed to have noticed my particular interest in the diplomatic relations between the two countries, but she didn't think much of it, assuming I was just interested in politics.
Only I know clearly what I'm thinking.
