After Raising a Hidden-Edition Yandere with a Sweet Exterior and Dark Heart

Coming Soon: "After Finding a Sickly Empress [Ancient Times to the Modern Day]"

Cold and aloof heiress x high-IQ, sweetly obedient, secretly ruthless beauty

When Yun Shu met Ji Jin, she was at the lowest point in her life: destitute and miserable, not even daring to look her in the eye.

Ji Jin, on the other hand, was a wealthy heiress who had been adored since birth, the cold and unfeeling head of a corporation, and the employer who treated Yun Shu like a plaything.

Back then, Yun Shu was afraid of her.

Later, she saw Ji Jin's tenderness and indulgence. Ji Jin always seemed to keep one foot on the brakes while crossing every boundary, as though genuine feelings were slipping out without her realizing it.

She would soften her voice and coax Yun Shu tenderly in their most intimate moments, embrace her when she was vulnerable, and shield her with her own body whenever danger arose.

Yun Shu took it all to heart.

Just as their agreement was about to expire and Yun Shu was working up the courage to act, she heard Ji Jin say, "It's just a transaction."

The words were cold and heartless, and suited the real Ji Jin perfectly.

Yun Shu smiled. Without saying a word, she turned and walked away without hesitation. What she struggled to suppress was not the tears that should have welled in her eyes, but the secret madness in her heart.

Recently, when the rapidly rising business tycoon agreed to a rare interview, a reporter asked whom she most wanted to thank. The young CEO, usually so amiable, only smiled faintly. Her clear eyes curved as she gazed into the camera with utmost sincerity. "The person I most want to thank is my... older sister."

That gaze pierced through the screen and into the eyes of the long-missing Ji Jin. The person behind her wrapped both arms around Ji Jin's neck, warm breath brushing her ear. She panted softly, her eyes curving just like the ones on screen. "Older sister, it's time to renew our deal."

Nine-year age gap

One-on-one, both devoted only to each other, happy ending

No stand-ins, no white moonlight

"After Finding a Sickly Empress [Ancient Times to the Modern Day]"

Yan Xu'an is a hard-luck graduate student in legal history, as well as an amateur rock climber. In her free time, she loves scaling all sorts of cliff faces like an ivy-covered wall.

Eight out of ten times her advisor calls, she answers while hanging off a cliff.

After countless climbs without a hitch, perhaps even Heaven had had enough.

One day, just as Yan Xu'an was about to complete her fiftieth outdoor climb, someone fell from the sky and knocked her down.

If that were all, it might have been fine. But the person had an arrow in her, too. Yan Xu'an had no idea why a cold weapon like an arrow would appear in the twenty-first century. All she knew was that its protruding tip pierced straight through her, the human cushion she'd been reduced to.

She was in so much pain she was gritting her teeth and barely holding on to consciousness when the arrow still wasn't enough: a dagger appeared at her throat, sending a chilling draft across her skin.

Yan Xu'an struggled to stay alert, but before she could even see what the culprit looked like, she heard a very weak voice say, "Save me."

What a strange world this was. Holding a knife to someone's throat while asking for help? That was practically criminal.

Yan Xu'an really didn't want to save her, but she had no choice. She had to save herself.

Later, after she had finally recovered from her injuries, she heard that the culprit had woken up and hurried off to demand an explanation. But when she stormed through the door, she looked up and met a pair of eyes.

Like the first snowfall of winter, settling on a wintersweet blossom.

Yan Xu'an, a beauty lover through and through, was just about to show off her fine manners when the woman's expression suddenly changed, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yan Xu'an stood frozen, trembling. Had she... thrown up because she found her disgusting?
