Golden Hairpin Locked in Copper Sparrow

Copper Sparrow^[1]

Loving to the brink of obsession means aching with an insurmountable craving to lock them away behind golden bars. The moment Duan Yelin first laid eyes on Xu Han, he was driven by a desperate need to shield this treasure from prying eyes, forging a precious cage to keep him captive. Before long, he turned that desire into reality.

Xu Han fought desperately against his confinement, but the instinct to survive ultimately prevailed. Bound by a multitude of unfinished matters, the youth finally accepted his fate and stepped through the gates of the Xiaotong Guan estate.

Only long afterward did Duan Yelin look back and realize the truth: within his grand halls, he had caged no proud, aloof songbird, but an icy, lethally sharp golden hairpin.
