The Lemon-Scented Girl

[Seeking bookmarks for upcoming novels: Spoiled to the Bone / The Female Demon Lord Takes Over the Entertainment Industry]

Entertainment industry big shot He Yuqin is proud and noble, exceptionally handsome, but has paralyzed legs and keeps women at a distance.

The Ning family has a son and a daughter: their adopted son, Shen Qingyan, and eldest daughter, Ning Chuxia. Few people know they have another, youngest daughter.

Rumor has it that the He and Ning families intend to form a marriage alliance. The prospective couple are He Yuqin and the Ning family's eldest daughter, Ning Chuxia.

Not long after the news breaks, a woman appears at He Yuqin's side: bright-eyed, slender, and lively. She is none other than the Ning family's youngest daughter, Ning Meng.

1.

"He Yuqin, could you call off your engagement to my sister?" Ning Meng tries to reason with the man in front of her.

"Why?" He Yuqin parts his thin lips, his deep voice giving away no emotion.

"Actually, I fell in love with you at first sight." The girl stares at the man before her as if ready to face death.

"My wife could be anyone, but not you." He Yuqin rejects her proposal without hesitation.

2.

Ning Meng rests her chin in one hand and gazes at the man before her. "He Yuqin, since I like you so much, why don't you just give in to me?"

He Yuqin's gaze deepens, but his handsome, refined face gives nothing away. "What did you say?"

Ning Meng straightens up unconsciously, her soft voice ringing out. "I said, I like you."

He Yuqin stares at the girl before him for a long moment, then says just one word: "Liar."

And yet, though he knows she's lying to him, he willingly falls into her trap.

Blurb for upcoming novel Spoiled to the Bone:

Six years ago, Qi Zhijin fell into the tender trap Meng Zhiluo had personally laid for him, lost his heart, and was ultimately abandoned by her without mercy.

On the day they broke up, Qi Zhijin trapped Meng Zhiluo in a cramped corner, licking and biting her lips hard as if to punish her.

His eyes were bloodshot, like those of a caged beast. "Meng Zhiluo, did you ever love me at all?!"

Meng Zhiluo gave him a seductive smile. Her lips were bright red, with blood still staining them. "I did... I loved your eyes, your nose, your mouth... But now, I don't love you anymore."

Six years later, they meet again. The Meng family has fallen on hard times, and Meng Zhiluo has become an obscure actress with barely any fame. Qi Zhijin, however, stands at the top of the pyramid as CEO of Huaxing Pictures.

CEO version:

Qi Zhijin looks at the woman seated across from him and casually swirls his wine glass. "Be my woman, and I can give you everything you want."

Meng Zhiluo's red lips curve upward. "Are you going to dump me once you've had me, just to get revenge for the way I used and discarded you six years ago?"

So everyone waits for the day Meng Zhiluo gets dumped, including Meng Zhiluo herself.

Devoted stalker version:

Qi Zhijin gazes at the sleeping woman in his arms, his fingertips slowly tracing every inch of her skin, his eyes full of tenderness. "I love you, my queen, far more than you could ever imagine."
