Seducing the Heart

Living within a chaotic palace, every step is a calculated move. Yun Jin believed that her marriage to Qin Zhanluo was nothing more than a transaction where each took what they needed. She had seen all walks of life, yet she found it difficult to decipher the true intentions of the person sharing her pillow.

With a gentle touch, Qin Zhanluo soothed her pain and comforted her loneliness. Yun Jin never expected that after all her scheming and calculations, she would accidentally lose her heart in the process. However, only Qin Zhanluo knew the truth: “Ah Jin, I came here specifically for you.”

One day, a maid came to deliver tea and pastries. As soon as she stepped into the room, she overheard some quite shocking words.

“It is a bit too slow; one ought to be decisive.” “Ah Jin, this is exhausting work. In the end, it is better if I take the lead.” “This Prince feels that is inappropriate. Although I am weak, my momentum prevails over yours.”

The maid had already stepped inside; she could neither leave nor proceed. When asked what her business was, she closed her eyes and said repeatedly, “Please continue, continue! I, I didn’t see anything, I didn’t hear anything!”

She set the tea and pastries down haphazardly and beat a blushing, hasty retreat. The two masters, in broad daylight!

Yun Jin looked sideways, holding a black chess piece and lightly tapping it against the board. Puzzled, she asked, “Why was she in such a panic?” Qin Zhanluo picked up a white piece and chuckled softly, “Probably, she misunderstood something.”
