Matriarchy: The Darling Is Hounded by a Madman Again

[Matriarchal society + all male leads end up with the heroine + one-to-many romance] [Everyone’s favorite + yandere love triangle showdown + men competing for the heroine + unhinged characters] When Shen Jiaojiao opens her eyes, she has become the frail eldest daughter of the Shen family. She only wants to keep her head down, get healthy, and enjoy a wealthy, carefree life in a matriarchal society. But the men around her are all crazier than the last... Her aloof, painterly fiance kneels outside her door all night, his voice hoarse. “Jiaojiao, don’t leave me... If you can’t stand me, I’ll give up painting.” The heir to a merchant family richer than the emperor offers her all his deeds and contracts, obsession burning in his eyes. “Choose me, and the whole of Jiangnan will make way for you. If that’s not enough... you can have my life too.” The powerful Grand Tutor’s son coughs blood as he locks her among the brocade quilts, smiling eerily. “If I have to die... I’ll die in your bed, and my spirit will haunt you for three lifetimes.” A prince from another kingdom, once high above everyone else, asks to be stripped of his title for her sake and whispers against her earlobe, “Give me a place at your side, and I’ll share my kingdom with you.” Shen Jiaojiao rubs her temple and watches peach petals drift past the window again, lost in thought. And that’s not all... Her personal bodyguard warms her feet late at night. Beneath his quiet loyalty lies a burning desire. A poison doctor from the martial world offers her a deadly parasite as a token of his affection, smiling as he threatens, “If you don’t want me, tomorrow the water supply across the whole capital will taste sickeningly sweet~” A prince far away in his fiefdom sends her a secret letter, the writing tender: “Jiaojiao, the rain in Jiangnan misses you... and I’m going mad missing you too.” Shen Jiaojiao: “...I just want to retire in peace.” The male leads: “No, you want to fall in love.” (P.S. The heroine isn’t a powerful, take-no-prisoners type. This story focuses on romance and everyday life. Don’t read if you want her taking on the whole world! Check the reviews for warnings!)
