She stood in front of the window, watching a crowd of the nation's elites cluster around him like stars around the moon, treating him with the utmost respect. Yes, he was the sovereign of this country, the constant star of this world, whose intense light forced everyone to look up.

When he kissed her, she felt something.
He had offered her two choices—first, to continue as Xiao Tian's painting teacher, or second, to spend her life in prison.
