Summary
A timely gust blew Xiao Zhan's veil aside, just long enough for Yibo to catch what might've been the shadow of a smile. Just that was enough to freeze him in place for the space of a breath.
He could've slapped himself for the lapse.
Once, he'd hoarded those smiles like a bandit with his treasure. But he was no longer that carefree child, and the man standing before him was no longer his precious Zhan-gege. Why would Xiao Zhan smile at his mortal enemy, who had broken the peace and brought so much turmoil to the realm and suffering to his people?
An out of favour prince is sent to negotiate peace with the notorious rebel general Wang Yibo, and nothing is quite what it seems.
Some debts can only be paid in affection. Others, only in blood.
