The Man Who Dreamed of Being a Father

----Please bookmark my upcoming novel---

What Should I Do If My Husband Refuses to Be a Court Official?

Wen Ning, daughter of a wealthy merchant in the capital, is fair-skinned and beautiful, graceful and refined. Her exquisite embroidery has won the admiration of noblewomen.

Unfortunately, she is already betrothed to her cousin Duan Shichao, who has lived with her family for years. Their marriage was arranged before they were even born.

On their wedding day, the whole hall is filled with joy.

But the groom arrives late in ordinary clothes, accompanied by the daughter of a prince. "Jiaojiao is the one I want to spend my life with."

The crowd erupts.

Later, Wen Ning's father suddenly falls gravely ill and dies, and her mother hangs herself. Her family is destroyed in a single day, and Wen Ning is left to beg on the streets.

Duan Shichao: "A Ning, I'll find a house for you to stay in. Once I regain power, I'll marry you as my principal wife."

The prince's daughter: "I find your house very comfortable to live in."

When Wen Ning falls gravely ill and clings to life, a man as beautiful as an immortal tends to her with loving care.

Even on the brink of death, she still longs for his warmth. "Would you marry me in our next life?"

She doesn't know that the man is Pei Zhao, the cold-blooded Regent of the dynasty.

He is ruthless and cruel, a bloodthirsty tyrant whom the entire court fears.

Rumor has it that he owes his position to the flattering Empress Dowager, whose charms have not faded with age. Having endured years of humiliation, he despises women.

But no one knows that he gave all his tenderness to the delicate young woman who mended his torn clothes in a ruined temple on a rainy night. His only regret in this life is that he found her too late.

When she returns to the day of her wedding, a handsome scholar arrives at the Wen residence, his hair as messy as weeds, dressed in coarse clothes and brimming with defiance.

"I've come as promised to ask for Wen Ning's hand in marriage."

Everyone laughs at his presumption. But Wen Ning's eyes fill with tears, and she smiles sweetly. "I will marry him."

In this life:

Wen Ning: I'll mend his clothes for the rest of my life. I don't mind living on simple food.

Pei Zhao: I'll give Ningning the very best. I suppose I can do the hard work of becoming emperor.

Wen Ning: ???

----Novel blurb---

In The Lucky Wife Arrives, the villainess has a heart as small as a needle's eye. Jealous and vicious, she spends every day hoping the heroine will die so she can take her place.

Obsessed with framing the heroine, she "successfully" hangs herself with a strip of white silk.

Ruan Qingyan sighs up at the sky. She is clearly on the heroine's side, so why has she ended up as a disposable villainess? Staying alive comes first!

From then on, she keeps to her home all year round, eating, drinking, and having fun. Although she has no interest in studying with her tutor, life is still quite pleasant.

Somehow, word begins to spread through the streets: The Ruan family has a daughter named Qingyan, beautiful and kindhearted, blessed with boundless wealth and destined to have many children and grandchildren.

Before long, countless people come knocking to ask for her hand.

Ruan Qingyan is shocked. That's complete nonsense!

Young Lord Gu: "Mingzhao has long been fond of Miss."

... ...

Can someone tell her why the male lead in the book is the tutor her family hired???

The Sickly Young Lord's Beloved

*Qin Qisi, the capital's greatest beauty, is born with exquisite features, skin like ice and bones like jade, and a willowy figure.

To escape being given away by her uncle in exchange for career advancement,

she makes a pact with the heir to the Duke of Zhenguo, rumored to have a face like a demon and a sinister, vicious temper, whom no woman would willingly marry.

The deal: a "sham marriage" in which she will serve as his bride to bring him good luck.

On their wedding night, the sickly Shen Zhaonan says coldly, "I don't like being tied down by women. When the three years are up, you can either resign yourself to widowhood or leave of your own accord. The choice is yours."

*Her former rivals eagerly await the miserable state she'll be in after being tormented.

Instead, they see power change hands, Shen Zhaonan recover from his grave illness and become a favorite of the emperor, and Qin Qisi's status rise along with his.

Just as they all rush to curry favor with her...

She leaves the residence with several huge chests of gold, silver, jewelry, deeds, and property contracts!

A servant reports it. Shen Zhaonan says languidly, "Let her go."

*At last free, Qin Qisi spends her days admiring flowers, boating on the lake, and composing poetry with handsome scholars.

She calls it looking for love: perhaps she'll happen to choose a future chief minister, and then she can enjoy his good fortune too.

*One day, as she peacefully enjoys tea and the scenery aboard a boat, a man who looks like an immortal suddenly appears.

"You've had your fun. It's time to come home, Madam."

Qin Qisi's eyes shimmer with flirtatious charm. She lazily refuses: "I only married you to save my life. Don't flatter yourself, Young Lord."

Theme: Always keep a positive and optimistic attitude, and use your intelligence and talents to build a good life.
