A fake playboy who’s really a calculating, scheming, black-hearted power player ✖️ A genuinely hard-to-tame, seemingly delicate, sensual little white rabbit
Sweet romance / Married first, love later / Long-planned seduction / The powerful one bows his head
Wei Yingshi goes from being a model young civil servant to the daughter of a convicted minister, exiled to the southwest. She’s been framed, but her accompanying maid falls gravely ill, leaving her in a desperate bind. With no other choice, she climbs into Prince Min’s bed.
The rumors say Prince Min, Xiao Yan, is a lecher who suffers from a hidden ailment. Perfect, right?
But on their wedding night, Xiao Yan lowers his lashes and bends to kiss her soft lips, his breathing unsteady.
The next moment, his burning body presses tightly against hers.
Wei Yingshi panics. “Your Highness, I thought you…”
“Thought I what?”
“Couldn’t…”
His voice is low and husky, coaxing her. “So curious? Why not find out for yourself?”
Their fingers intertwine, and they spend a passionate night together, so wild she can barely remember it.
No one knows that Xiao Yan had already set his sights on her while traveling to his fief.
Once the daughter of a noble family, she has now been convicted and exiled. The officials traveling with her watch her hungrily; danger is everywhere, and she lacks food and clothing.
At the time, Wei Yingshi’s attendant fell ill. Xiao Yan was in his room, debating whether to offer help, when the door opened.
The young woman wore a thin robe, tears glistening at the corners of her eyes, and a faint scent of wine surrounded her.
She knelt at his feet, offering her body in exchange for his help.
At that moment, he should have remained perfectly composed.
But the woman before him was the one he had yearned for over the years, the one he could see but never have.
After only a moment’s hesitation, he reached out and pulled her tightly into his arms.
But when they met again in the army, she seemed to have completely forgotten the tenderness and passion of that night at the post station.
It didn’t matter.
He would make her remember every last bit of what she’d forgotten.

Dual rebirth / Younger man / Forced possession / Forbidden romance / Chasing his wife / Running away while pregnant
1.
When Jiang Qiao was sixteen, her parents sold her to the village hunter for three strings of coins.
Her husband was a little rough, but life was otherwise manageable, aside from having a cold, sharp-tongued younger brother-in-law.
But her good fortune didn’t last. Her husband died in an accident, and her in-laws treated her like a jinx and kicked her out.
After she went back to her parents’ home, they tried to sell her off again. She refused at all costs and drowned herself.
When she woke, it was the seventh day after her husband’s death. Her younger brother-in-law, who had looked down on her ever since she married into the family, had returned.
He helped her settle her family troubles, and the two of them lived in neighboring rooms in the old house.
But little by little, she realized he had changed. He treated her with great care.
Until one day, she found the crimson undergarment she’d lost three years ago beneath his pillow.
2.
Zhao An was born without much capacity for emotion. He was indifferent to life and had no interest in the imperial examinations, so he joined the army and went to war. But his brothers betrayed him, and he was ambushed at the foot of Wolf Mountain.
When he woke, he had returned to the day before he decided to enlist.
His older brother had taken a wife. She looked weak and easy to bully, and he disliked women like that.
What he found most unbearable was that after nightfall, the paper-thin wall between them carried the sound of his sister-in-law’s stifled sobs every night.
One midnight, he was woken again by those sounds. He pushed open the door and found his sister-in-law flushed, her slender pale legs wrapped tightly around his brother’s waist.
Worse still, she noticed him.
3.
On the seventh day after his brother’s death, he returned home in disguise and found his sister-in-law being bullied, frail, lonely, and with no one to rely on.
His heart ached for her, but a secret thrill also rose within him.
She was so weak, anyone could bully her. How could she manage without a man in the house?
He knew he shouldn’t feel this way, but he couldn’t control himself.
His pure-hearted, kind sister-in-law naturally failed to notice his feelings and treated him with care in every way.
Until one day, she discovered his secret and trembled with anger.
“Zhao An, this is against all human decency!”
He laughed cruelly. “A father’s death followed by inheritance passing to his son, an elder brother’s death followed by inheritance passing to his younger brother. It’s only natural.”
