My Husband Is No Good: A Tale of Forceful Possession

[A twisted, possessive, scheming prince × a stubborn, cool-headed, resilient woman who transmigrated]

The first time Meng Qingzhi met Shen Baixu, she was the bride of a general in the enemy camp.

Captured in a single day, she sat beneath her red bridal veil and heard Shen Baixu draw his sword and calmly ask who among them had been most favored by the general.

Everyone around her silently stepped back in unison, leaving Meng Qingzhi alone to face the blade.

Unwilling to accept it, she flung back her veil and argued her case. Her clear, composed phoenix eyes dazzled Shen Baixu.

Ignoring the rumors, Shen Baixu insisted on keeping her in the military camp. One day, after returning victorious, he had drunk a little and stumbled as he walked. As if possessed, he lifted the flap of her tent.

After a struggle, she grabbed a bloodstained dagger and fled. She traveled thousands of li, changed her name, and took a master. Together, they roamed the martial world, living carefree lives.

One day, she saved a young lady and escorted her home. The old madam of the household took an instant liking to her, made her an honorary granddaughter, and welcomed her to stay.

After she had lived there for over a month, she heard that the old madam’s distant cousin’s son had come to visit. The old madam called her over to meet their guest.

The moment she stepped into the reception hall, the smile she had arranged on her face froze into ice.

The newcomer wore white. Handsome and refined, he chatted with easy composure. His gaze swept over her face, and his brow twitched.

She heard him say with a smile, “My great-aunt says I haven’t married because I haven’t met the right person. Looking at this young lady, I’d say she’s wonderful.”

…

In the prince’s residence interrogation room, Shen Baixu displayed the paintings he had collected over the past six months one by one, and asked slowly, “With so many men, which one of them is…”

He meant to ask which man she was truly loyal to, but the words that came out were, “the one you love.”

Meng Qingzhi turned her face away in disgust. “Get your filthy hands off me. Is this really necessary for an interrogation?”

Shen Baixu chuckled. “It’s not necessary for ordinary suspects. But you’re different.”

He tore open his shirt. The scar on his left shoulder was still visible. He touched her shoulder and asked in a low voice, “Tell me, should I leave a mark in the same place on you?”

A few years later, Shen Baixu’s career flourished, carrying him to the highest reaches of power.

Drunk, he turned to look at the cool, composed woman sitting in his arms.

Her gaze was still defiant and untamable. He felt as though he had fallen right into it, and couldn’t help staring, entranced.

All his life, all he had wanted was to tame her. He never realized that in the end, it might be she who tamed him.

A preview of my upcoming novel, Years of Knowing You:

[Forced possession] [The groveling ex arc] [A love steeped in hatred]

The famine was so severe that people ate one another.

At the Lu family estate, fifteen-year-old Lu Yizhou took a sack of grain from his sworn sister Lu Qiansheng. At her urging, he fled along the route she had pointed out.

But he ran straight into starving refugees, who had been lying in wait, their eyes red with hunger.

The setting sun was red as blood. After a frenzied struggle, trampling, and looting, Lu Yizhou escaped with his life. He looked at his mangled left hand and collapsed on the ground like a madman, laughing and crying.

He had been adopted by the Lu family as their attack dog. He should never have entertained a single hope.

No matter how well the Lu family’s second young lady, Lu Qiansheng, had treated him, she had only ever meant to use him as a scapegoat.

Consumed by hatred, he joined the army without hesitation. He fought as though his life meant nothing, winning battle after battle, and was eventually named a battalion commander.

One day, he received military orders. After days of fierce fighting, his troops finally captured a city. As he led his men in repairing the broken walls and ruins, he suddenly spotted a refined young scholar speaking gently to a group of children.

An inexplicable sense of familiarity drew him closer. When he glimpsed the man’s slender waist and the beauty mark between his brows, he lost himself for a moment.

…

Beneath the red gauze bed curtains, the woman before him was weeping as she spoke, unable to get her words out.

He hated her “charity” back then, hated how casually she had brushed the whole matter aside, and hated her… for not having him in her heart.

*

Because of the famine, Lu Qiansheng became completely separated from her family. Disguised as a man, she wandered for five years before finally finding her sworn brother, Lu Yizhou.

After their reunion, Lu Yizhou treated her poorly. Knowing what the Lu family had done to him, she thought of it as penance and endured in silence.

He didn’t want to hear her call him brother, and he didn’t want her to spend time with him.

But when she started making arrangements for her own marriage, he came rushing at her like a savage beast unable to hide its fangs.
