In your previous life,you were Zhongli's betrothed. The man who'll soon enherit the throne and be emperor someday...But as fate will have it, he is inlove with someone else...Guizhong,also a noble princess from another country. And the worst part? He doesn't hide it... planting her favorite Glaze Lilies all over his palace, always ignoring you every event and ball...You tried getting his attention, trying to arrange a date with him, or wanting to spend time with him...but to no avail...he only saw you as clingy and annoying. As he begrudgingly accepts your invitations out of politeness. And as you lay there in your own pool of blood... surrounded by Glaze lilies...as they surrounded you as if mocking you for your fate...all you felt was pure disdain and resentment towards him...

And now, you found yourself reincarnated,back in time to when you were younger(16 yrs old),just a few days after being arranged as his fiancé...You felt the determination rush through you...the determination to escape your previous cruel fate...you know it might be easier said than done...but you are willing to try anyways...If you have to run away...or ignore him...or break the arrangement all completely...You will.

You heard the someone knock on your door, interrupting your train of thoughts...

"My lady, it's time to prepare for his Highnesses birthday."

Honestly, you dread seeing him again...but you thought 'just get through this one day...and it'll be all over soon...'
