The Frail, Blind Beauty Is Actually a Miracle Doctor

Flighty, sickly beauty x younger, doting caretaker

Gu Min was born blind and frail, and his family abandoned him. His one hope in life was to cure his eyes before he died.

Though he had medical skill, he lacked the crucial medicinal ingredient needed to treat his eye condition. It could only be found in the imperial palace's medicine storehouse, so he had no choice but to cozy up to the powerful in order to get it.

As luck would have it, one such powerful figure was already at a local pleasure house:

Rumor had it that the heir apparent, Ji Qingzhen, was a womanizing playboy. But as the emperor's nephew, he often went in and out of the palace.

To get the medicine, Gu Min stole Ji Qingzhen's jade pendant.

"You're so handsome. How did you turn into a little thief who steals people's jade pendants?"

Gu Min: !!!

Ji Qingzhen was a shameless, lecherous scoundrel.

Gu Min's heart clenched. The most important thing was getting his medicine. "I can help Your Highness cure the plague."

Gu Min felt Ji Qingzhen press a sword against his shoulder. The next moment, Ji Qingzhen fainted right into his arms.

Gu Min: "..."

Gu Min hurriedly called for help. When he examined Ji Qingzhen, he discovered that the man had been poisoned. With no other choice, Gu Min first had to treat him, grumbling all the while.

At long last, Ji Qingzhen was cured. But after they returned to court, before Gu Min could get the medicine, the emperor issued an order sending Ji Qingzhen to fight the barbarians.

Gu Min: "..."

Gu Min was frantic, but he still refused to admit it. "I don't want to go looking for him. I just don't want all my efforts to have been for nothing..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed off to the battlefield to find Ji Qingzhen.

The moment he arrived, Ji Qingzhen pulled him into his arms. "Were you worried about me?"

Gu Min pushed away the mouth Ji Qingzhen leaned toward him. "I came because I thought you were going to die. It's not like I was worried about you..."

After the two returned victorious, they happened to meet some of the people Gu Min had treated as they passed through the plague-stricken area.

An old man took his hand. "Thank you for saving my life, Doctor Gu. I would have been dead without you. You're a miracle worker, the very equal of Hua Tuo."

Back at court, Gu Min's parents, who had once despised him for being blind, came looking for him of their own accord.

The noblewoman took Gu Min's hand, speaking hesitantly. "I'm your mother. You can't deny us."

Gu Min shut the door and told Ji Qingzhen to drive them away. "I don't have parents like you!"

Though Ji Qingzhen was an heir apparent, he had never been able to truly be himself. To keep the emperor from becoming suspicious, he had to pretend to be a wastrel and waste his days away.

When the emperor ordered him to treat the plague, Ji Qingzhen had planned to bluff his way through it as usual. But along the way, he met a beautiful little thief who was blind himself, yet confidently claimed he could cure Ji Qingzhen.

As it turned out, Gu Min was sick every other day, with a minor ailment one day and a serious one the next. He could barely look after himself, yet still had to help with the plague, treat Ji Qingzhen's poison, and even follow him to the battlefield.

Seeing Gu Min curled up under the covers with a cold, Ji Qingzhen's heart ached. From then on, he took charge of Gu Min's daily life. He kept track of how much Gu Min ate, how much water he drank, and how long he walked, always thinking of him and protecting him.

He treasured him like something so precious it might break if dropped, or melt if held in his mouth.

Gradually, color returned to Gu Min's face, and he smiled more whenever he saw Ji Qingzhen.

Little by little, his eyesight improved too.

Ji Qingzhen held Gu Min and made a promise. "Once your eyes are better, we'll get married and travel the world together."

Next novel: Who Stole My Underwear?!

Snarky, straight-laced bottom x wife-obsessed, lovesick top

After transferring schools, Jiang Mian discovered that his belongings kept disappearing every few days. At first it was just pens and paper, but then things got worse. The thief even went after the underwear he'd worn!

Furious, he vowed he would never let the culprit get away with it.

One day, Jiang Mian forgot something and went back to the dorm.

There he came face-to-face with Ji Yan, who had never liked him. Jiang Mian looked down and saw that Ji Yan was holding his underwear.

Jiang Mian's face turned ashen. You sick pervert!

/

Jiang Mian thought Ji Yan was his nemesis.

They were at odds in every way.

Ever since he met Ji Yan,

Ji Yan had stolen his long-held spot at the top of their grade.

Ji Yan reported his phone, which he'd hidden for ages, and got it confiscated.

Ji Yan mocked him for writing his first-ever self-criticism.

Ji Yan snatched tickets to a signing event for his favorite comic.

He even stole his favorite pair of shoes.

Then Ji Yan taunted him, saying he was going to give them to him.

Jiang Mian complained furiously to his friend.

His friend: "...Wait, he bought those sneakers to give to you?"

Jiang Mian: "He was taunting me! Taunting me!"

His friend: "...Uh, and at the comic signing, he got your favorite artist to sign them for you? He gave you the autograph too?"

"..."

Jiang Mian: "Yeah."

His friend: "...Could he possibly be gay?"

Jiang Mian's ears perked up.

"! What do you mean?"

/

Ji Yan liked Jiang Mian. He'd planned to get into the same university as Jiang Mian, then pursue him.

Who knew fortune would suddenly smile on him?

Jiang Mian transferred to his school.

Jiang Mian smelled so good.

The pen he'd used smelled so good.

His notebook smelled so good too.

Everything about Jiang Mian smelled good.

He began following Jiang Mian, collecting his used tissues and notebooks, following him home, gathering his photos, and drawing portrait after portrait of him, some of them indecent, some of him sleeping face-down.

He bought tickets to a signing event for Jiang Mian's favorite comic and a pair of new-release sneakers to win him over.

But Jiang Mian coolly turned him down.

One day, Jiang Mian hadn't put away his underwear properly.

Ji Yan only wanted to smell it.

He hadn't meant to steal it...

/

Ji Yan thought his stalking was flawless, but one day Jiang Mian cornered him in an alley.

"You've been following me? Are you really gay?"

Ji Yan swallowed, wanting to lick the finger Jiang Mian held before his eyes.

Thesis: Persevere and strive for self-improvement.
