This is the story of Lin Xue, a dandy young woman who values beauty and wealth above all else. At fifteen, she unexpectedly meets her soulmate. Instead of excitement, she feels only frustration.

"I thought I’d meet him at twenty," she grumbled.

"My lady, you can meet your soulmate at fifteen or older," her maid replied.

"Fifteen is too early! I hope he doesn’t propose. I’ll just tell him to wait until I’m twenty. I want to enjoy my life first."

Months Later…

"You… You’re the Emperor?"

Lin Xue’s mind reeled as she recalled her past words she had spoken so carelessly.

[Flashback]

"I heard the Emperor is handsome. Hah! I’ll call him ‘Handsome Without a Brain.’ He’s too young to rule a nation! He should be enjoying his youth instead. What a fool!

If I were Emperor or Empress, I’d abolish that ridiculous law about marrying at fifteen!" Lin Xue scoffed.

[End Flashback]

She turned pale. I badmouthed the Emperor… in front of the Emperor. I’m dead.

The Emperor leaned back, amused. "Miss Lin, do you remember your words? Let me refresh your memory ‘Handsome Without a Brain. He should enjoy his youth instead of ruling a country.’"

He smirked. "Well, Miss Lin, since you’re so concerned about my lonely youth, why don’t you join me? After all, you are my destined Empress. Waiting until you’re twenty is too long. We’re getting married now."

Lin Xue’s jaw dropped. "I refuse!"

"Oh? Do you want to die early? Because I don’t mind being a widower," he teased, his smirk deepening.

Lin Xue huffed. "You’re sickly. A sickly Emperor!"

The Emperor chuckled. "Then wouldn’t it be poetic if I died in your arms?"

"Shameless!" Lin Xue fumed.

Her maid whispered to her, "Miss, if you marry him, you won’t have to worry about money ever again."

Lin Xue perked up. "Really? …Fine! I’ll marry you!"

But their story is far from a fairy tale…

War.
Plague.
Revenge.
Robbery.
Assassins.
Treason.

Can a dandy girl and a sickly Emperor survive the storm?
