Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

Married Off To A Cold Eyed Knight

What would you do if almost everyone around you saw you as a hindrance or not at all? What if your own father was one of those who wished you gone? That is the story of Rosemary's life. Ever since the death of her mother during accident where only she survived, Rose has felt useless. Despite her best attempts to ignore the hurtful glances and words of the royal court and her father, she can't help but feel like a wilted flower. It becomes so bad that she considers ending it all, until she is rescued by a handsome young man with cold violet eyes who promises to change her world. ---- Before long, I reached a stone bridge overlooking Kaguya river. Luckily for me, the place was empty at the moment. Although, would anyone have even bothered saving a wretch like me? At most, they probably would have just watched as I met my end in a moment of morbid curiosity. And as I stood at the edge, I remembered all the times I had cried. All the times I had hurt. But now, I was ready. I smiled as the wind whipped around me. It was time to end it. Turning around, I let my body fall backwards into the river. The sky was a sea of stars. The city lights around me sparkled like gems. It was so beautiful. For the first time in a long time, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. I didn't regret it. No, I had finally found the courage to stand up for myself in my very own way. The water was high, so the fall itself didn't kill me instantly as I had hoped. As the river enveloped me, I closed my eyes. This was the end of my journey. A journey full of misery and tragedy. If there was another life, I hoped it would be better than this one. "Sis!" I heard a voice scream. Orlin! My brother came for me? What was he doing here? Had he followed me? But why? Did he care about me? Or was it just pity? No, right? Surely at least one person in this world loved me. Why had I given up on myself so soon? I knew he loved me. Yet, I still went through with this stupid decision. I allowed those girls and Father's words inhibit my better judgment... "Sis, where are you? Rose! Please show yourself! I want to talk!" Ore yelled at the top of his lungs. Right, my life was not all misery and tragedy. There were faint glimmers of joy and hope left. Ore was a big part of that. How selfish of me... I was actually about to abandon my brother. I tried to resurface, but my swimming skills weren't the best. To make matters worse, the current was far too strong. If not for the current, I would have at least been able to dog paddle over to the edge with some effort. My right hand broke through the fierce waters and was yanked by another hand. I was pulled out of the murky depths and saw a pair of cold violet eyes staring back at me. Father? No, it wasn't him. Although, those eyes felt familiar. Before I could make out the face of my rescuer clearly, darkness swept over me. Was it too late? I didn't want to die... Not anymore!

I've always believed that a person's true strength isn't just in their physical abilities, but more importantly, their mental endurance." Tang Rou softly said," I know you're confused right now, but trust me, time will help you grow, making you stronger." Ye Fei raised his head and looked at Tang Rou, feeling a surge of gratitude in his heart. He understood that Tang Rou had always been his supporter, helping him grow. "Tang Rou, I have a bet. I have a promise. I will prove my strength and make you proud of me." Ye Fei said," I hope you can be proud of me one day." Tang Rou smiled and nodded,"I believe that you, Ye Fei, will become a true expert." Ye Fei looked at Tang Rou with confidence. He knew that he would not give up easily. He would work hard to make himself stronger. "Then our bet is that you can win a game for me to prove my strength." Tang Rou said," If I win, I'll treat you two to a movie. If I lose, I'll treat you two to supper." Ye Fei and Tang Rou looked at each other with anticipation. They all knew the importance of this bet and knew that only by working hard could they win. "Okay, how about we bet five dollars a bottle of beer?" Ye Fei said," The loser will treat the other party to a movie."
