AUTHOR'S POV
-Lady Li is so lucky- a servant said with an enormous smile, after all today was her wedding, she was going to marry the young master from the Murong family. He is an elegant gentleman, son of the most powerful merchant of the zone, with a truly handsome face. Any woman would be delighted if they could marry him, any but Lady Li, an interesting woman with fire in her heart and already in love with someone else.
Li Ying was born in a prominent family with a lot of money and servants, she was raised to be an elegant woman with knowledge of every art. Of course, the only thing she lacked was parents love, her father was always traveling to earn more money and her mother was always going to dinners with important people. Despise her servant's efforts, Lady Li was never what she was expected to be, she was loud, curious, with great fighting skills and sucked at all the things ladies should do.
For this reason, a lot of people looked down on her, even though no one dare to say it out loud, she knew she was different form other but really didn't care about until a day came.
-FLASHBACK (LI YING 22 YEARS OLD)-
-This child never learns- a grumpy woman said out loud, a servant ran to her
-Madame, what happened?
-That filthy brat escaped again, when my daughter comes back from her night adventure give her a good punishment in my behalf, punish her until she understands that her behavior is surpassing my patience limits
-Yes, Madame Li, would you like to send someone to look for her? -The servant questioned with a little bit of fear, Madame Li really had a scary and volatile personality
-No, let her be for this time, when I have the chance I'll make her regret it- Madame Li said with a dark aura all over her
In the meantime, Li Ying was running to her favorite place to think, she got to the precious lake and let out a big breath. Here you could feel like all the problems dissolved, instead calm invaded every centimeter of your body. As she approached the lake side she heard a beautiful voice humming something, of course curiosity acted on her and she started to follow the music. When she found out the source of such delightful melody, she was amazed, a handsome man was sitting in a rock with a perfect posture looking at the moon.
When he heard some steps approaching with an excited pace, he stopped abruptly.
-Hey, why did you stopped, your voice sounded so soothing, it made me forget about my problems for a while- a young girl called with a beautiful smile, he just glared at her with light colored eyes and stand up ready to leave- Wait, are you going to leave a lady alone in the middle of night?- she quickly added with a mischievous smile- By the way I am Li Ying
-Lan Jun, courtesy Lan Qingheng- he made a small reverence, when he looked at her, this time more in detail, his eyes widened for a second. She was really beautiful, but not like all the women he had met in his life, she had an exotic beauty something powerful and mesmerizing. For them it was love at first sight, Li Ying sat and started chatting with him, until he realized it was nearly midnight, he was going to be in so much problems but as lon as Li Ying smiled nothing else mattered anymore.
-Lady Li, I'm really sorry but my fellow disciples might be worried about me, I have to go, if you don't mind, I would like to accompany you to your house
-Perfect, but don't call me Lady Li, I'll be Ying for you and you'll be just Jun to me, okay?
-As you wish, Ying- he pronounced without knowing that her name would give him the best and the worst feelings in the world.
After that significant first encounter they sent cards to each other almost every week and when Lan Jun had the chance, he would go to see her at their special place.
-6 MONTHS LATER (LI YING'S 23 BIRTHDAY)-
-Happy birthday to you my precious daughter, I have a little surprise for you today- Madame Li said with a devilish expression
-What is it mother?
-Let him in- the doors opened reviling a tall handsome man, dressed in expensive clothes- A-Ying, this is Murong Quan, your fiancé-
-Greetings Lady Li- the man said expecting Li Ying to greet him in return, instead she stand up fiercely
-My what???- Li Ying shouted attracting everyone's attention
-Just what you heard, your father and I have decided to seal a contract with the Murong family and this marriage will be our guarantee, aren't you happy? Finally you serve for something in this family, the wedding will have place in a week
-You can't force me, I'm not marring him- She said pretty sure and ran away from the house to her special place where someone even more special was waiting for her.
Lan Jun heard someone running to him, he turned to look who was being so noisy and then he was shocked, Ying was crying so loud.
-A-Ying what happened?
-Junjun my mom is forcing me to marry in a week- Lan Jun was also shocked without thinking he hugged her like his life depended on it
-You're not going to marry anyone but me, we're escaping the day of your wedding- A-Ying tensed and stopped crying
-Anyone but you? – Finally, Lan Jun was conscious of his words, he strongly blush and was about to reply when Li Ying talked again- Yes, anyone but you- they talked a little more and planned how they were going to escape, unfortunately someone saw them.
-PRESENT (WEDDING DAY)-
-Lady Li, are you ready? - a servant knocked the door- Lady Li, is everything okay? I'm going inside- the servant entered and her face turned pale. Lady Li was no longer there, neither her clothes, there was just a card that said "I'm sorry, but I'm in love with someone else".
The servant gave the news to the Li and Murong families, Murong Quan felt indignant, then he gave a psychopath smile.
-Fortunately, I know where she is, if she's not mine then she won't be anyone's.
Lan Jun and now Lan Ying went abroad and married, Lan Ying gave birth to Lan Huan courtesy Xichen, a beautiful smiley young boy. But every time they felt secure a Murong spy found them, Quan never forgot Ying's offense so he continued following them, fortunately he could never catch them. After three years Lan Ying gave birth to another boy, he looked just like his older brother but serious, he was named Lan Zhan courtesy Wangji.
When A-Zhan came to this world, Lan Jun was really happy but after two months of peace he suddenly received a worrying notice, Murong Quan was coming for them. Lan family went straight to the airport, they decided to go to Jun's younger brother house, after a twelve hours flight and two hours in car they arrived to Lan Qiren's house. They knew that Quan was coming for them so they left the two children with their uncle and went to the main training campus of Lan family to look for help. But when they were driving to the campus, they had a mysterious car "accident", killing them both immediately, since then the two brothers were raised by his uncle. Their uncle was angry, he thought that his brother's death was Lan Ying's fault, maybe if he had never fallen in love with her, he would be still alive. So, he taught his nephews that mutual love only destroyed people and Wangji engraved that deep in his heart.
