Episode 1

"Princess, you are to be engaged to the young master of the Lin family."

"Understood."

A man in a butler suit stood in the dark room only lit by a small lamp at the bed side. Sitting on the bed was a small figure, seemingly a child about 5 years old.

The room was luxurious, with an ancient vibe to it. There were a few book shelves lined with the left wall, filled with book not even most adults would be able to understand.......

There was a huge bed in the centre of the right wall, adjacent to the book shelves. A figure sat upon it with her small frame and answered the **man in butler suit.

"Your orders from the old master are to preserve this engagement until further orders." Conveyed the man.

"What's there to preserve when the engagement is set?"

Asked, the little princess with no emotion on her little face. The man felt conflicted by her lack of reaction, but the little princess didn't care.

".....I'm just conveying orders princess. I don't know the details."

"Understood." Said the Little Princess.

Seemingly understanding that the little princess didn't wish to say another extra words, the man opened his mouth,"Then I shall take my leave**."

Clank. **The door closed and the little princess was the only one left in the large room. She got off the bed and picked a book from the last shelf. She, then, sat on the large study table next to it and started reading the book.

After exiting the room, the man wondered why such a little girl is so cold and indifferent when her age is of playing with other children her age, as he made his way towards the old master's room. But instead she preferred reading complicated books in her room?

The man had just started working here. In the past few days of working here, he learned that the young mistress of this palace is cold and did not speak much. But after interacting with her today, he realised it was more than just disinterest to speak........

The Little Princess seemed as though she wasn't interested in **anything. **He only talked 4 sentences with her and yet he was cowering in fear? Fear of what exactly? Isn't she just a little girl? What is he afraid of?

As the girl sat on the bed, the man couldn't help but analyse her delicate features. Even though little, she gave off an unexplained cold aura with the vibe of a real princess. Her white hair were cut short, but not too short. She had a hair cut like a boy and a few long strands of hair that reached her bottom neck. Her skin was a white as a porcelain jade. Her eyes were a beautiful blue but there seemed to be no light in them.......

As he was thinking, he realised he had reached the old master's room. He gave two knocks on the door**.

Knock. "**Enter." A voice replied.

The young butler opened the door and stepped inside the room**.......
