[Happy Romance, Sweet Fluff]

Scheming, fake-tough, green-tea male lead with a love-addled brain & sincere, kindhearted, pure-as-the-driven-snow female lead

Don't walk past without stopping! Give it a favorite and see how it tastes!

[Corporate elite who thinks he's forcing a marriage on her VS comical girl who thinks he's a show-off and plans to fleece him before sending him packing]

Song Zhixia was scolded by her mother for not dating, with the warning that she'd never get married at this rate. So she was forced onto the blind-dating circuit. This was already the fifth man she'd met this month.

At last, Song Zhixia decided to fight back and ruin her reputation on the dating market!

First, get eight-centimeter-long acrylic nails and cover them in glittering rhinestones.

Next, put on a smoky eye with enough highlighter to blind people, then stick two ferocious-looking green dragons on her chest and arms.

Finally, bring along a standee of her latest celebrity crush.

During dinner, ask him all about his family, play on her phone, talk about her ex, and order the expensive dishes. Whatever will put him off, she'll do it.

Song Zhixia was brimming with confidence.

Long nails, celebrity worship, heavy makeup, tattoos, and saying whatever came into her head. There was no way she wouldn't scare him off!

But when she finally met her date, she found a man who was 186 centimeters tall, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and his hair slicked back. His impeccably tailored light-gray suit gave off the refined air of old money. When he pulled out her chair with his long, elegant hands, his gentlemanly manners were just right.

And he wasn't bad-looking, either.

Nearly every detail hit her right in the sweet spot.

Song Zhixia, armed to the teeth and ready to sabotage her blind date: "..."

Huo Xingye fell in love with a girl at first sight.

She had a sweet face and a soft, delicate voice, yet a tiny, exquisite mole between her brows gave her a divine air. When she lowered her eyes and smiled, she looked just like a bodhisattva gazing down upon the world.

His assistant told him she was dating his good-for-nothing younger brother.

Huo Xingye held himself back at every turn. His upbringing and his morals would never allow him to cross that line.

The next time he saw her was at the restaurant where she was on a blind date. She was on the phone, complaining to a friend that she'd been forced into the date and had to humor a so-called "ideal" man from the civil service, even though she wasn't interested.

As if possessed, Huo Xingye took the seat across from her.

"Hello. I'm the blind date your mother arranged for you."

After breaking up with Huo Xingye, Song Zhixia planned to go on another blind date. That evening, rain poured in torrents.

The two of them were unexpectedly trapped in an elevator.

Huo Xingye was soaked from head to toe. All the gentleness and restraint he had shown until now vanished, replaced by a terrifying obsession in his eyes. He held Song Zhixia tightly in his arms and kissed her again and again.

As their breaths mingled, Song Zhixia heard him say, "Zhixia, be good. Come back to me."

[The babbling, make-things-up-for-laughs girl and the meticulous corporate elite]

The male lead isn't the original blind date.

One-on-one, both leads are each other's first and only.

The female lead never dated the younger brother. Never dated him. Never dated him.

Upcoming novel: After Tempting a Lonely Girl into Sin

Blurb: Full manuscript currently in progress.

A freakishly strong, honest-to-a-fault crybaby heroine X a tsundere hero who can't stand to see women cry and soon finds himself hooked

Yun Yao accidentally saved a princess on the day the city fell, but as a result, her entire family was slaughtered.

The trauma left her with amnesia, and she wandered until Chen Sanlang rescued her.

Yun Yao fell for Sanlang, but the day after they consummated their marriage, Chen Sanlang vanished without a trace.

A year later, Yun Yao saw the long-missing Chen Sanlang on the battlefield, holding their infant in her arms. He sat astride a horse, ruling his own domain, clad in imperial yellow and wielding immense power.

The two looked at each other from afar across the battlefield.

Yun Yao couldn't understand the complicated look in his eyes. When her memories returned, she could only weep and wish she'd died instead.

Lu Chenyuan carved out his own domain amid the chaos of war. Known as the Cold-Faced Yama, he never expected to be caught off guard.

After kindly rescuing a lone girl, he found she wouldn't leave him alone. Every morning, he woke with new purple bruises on his body, but being used to injuries, he never noticed them.

One night, he returned from outside after receiving a military order and saw Yun Yao enter his room. Just as Lu Chenyuan was about to leave, the woman threw her arms around him and kissed and bit him, behaving with shameless impropriety.

His expression darkened, and he was about to knock her out when she suddenly pinned his wrists.

The woman was so strong that, for the moment, he couldn't break free.

Lu Chenyuan: "..."

Lying on the ground, he looked up at her face in the moonlight. Her cheeks were flushed, and she looked completely out of her mind.

Lu Chenyuan was helpless. He didn't want to take advantage of her, so he was going to blow the hidden whistle and summon his nearby confidants for help.

But the woman began to cry, tears falling one after another onto his chest like pearls.

The more she cried, the tighter she held him down, straddling him so he couldn't move.

Lu Chenyuan sighed. In all his life, there was nothing he feared more than a woman crying.

[Bonus Scene]

Lu Chenyuan lay on the bed with his clothes in disarray, his delicate skin covered in purple marks. His eyes were full of desire, but the person in front of him only had eyes for that little brat.

His voice hoarse, he said, "I've been longing for you for a year, and this is how you treat me?"

Yun Yao set their child down and came to the bed, but didn't bother to pull her clothes back into place.

Tears streaming down her face, she said, "If I don't tie you up before we do it, you'll run off and leave us mother and child alone again. You're a grown man. Are you really afraid of a little pain?"

Lu Chenyuan, whose eyes had reddened from the pain in a certain place: "..."
