Hard to Escape Drowning

My other novel, Dance to the Heart, is now live. Rolling around and begging for favorites!

Blurb:

The famous musician Longai (Chang Qing) has been successful for five years, yet has never appeared in public. Some say she is too ugly to show her face, while others say she is aloof and doesn't like meeting people.

Then she appeared on a music show, and her shy, introverted, adorable image stunned everyone.

The adorable girl gave a bashful smile, then turned around and roasted her online haters until they were speechless.

The day her relationship was exposed, Longai's public image collapsed overnight. Rumors spread that her private life was a mess, that she had shady deals with investors, was entangled with a car dealership owner, and had even been caught kissing a mechanic in the street.

Everyone mocked her, saying she had no standards.

Then someone photographed the mechanic's globally limited-edition off-road vehicle: Sorry, we didn't mean to interrupt.

It turns out a car dealership owner who can't fix cars isn't a good investor.

Rescuing a damsel in distress without asking for her hand in marriage is just being a hooligan!

[One-line blurb: You were my hero five years ago. Now you have to be my man.]

A chatterbox, rapid-fire musician x a self-controlled, retired car dealership boss who reads people like a book

Bonus scene:

Chang Qing's alt account signature: When I say my car's broken, I mean I miss you.

Later, on a boundless wilderness, a black road stretched into the distance, and a fiery red off-road vehicle sat boldly in the middle of it.

Ji Xu leaned over and trapped her against the hood. "What? Miss me?"

Chang Qing wound herself around him like a temptress. "No, this time I really did get a flat tire."

He scoffed, lowered his head, and fiercely bit her red lips.

There was never a truthful word out of this girl's mouth. Her lips were beautiful and tempting, but not suited to talking, only to kissing.

I once conquered this land. Now, on this land, I willingly surrender to your red lips.

Chang Qing: I like absolute devotion, or absolute freedom.

Ji Xu: I like helping you change your tires...

#My tire's flat again, and now it's flat again again. PS: Don't ask. I'm just so beautiful that cars blow their tires when they see me.#

#You thought I was after his car? No, I'm even more after his body.#

1. The moment the show Dance with Your Heart aired, it became a sensation and sparked nationwide discussion.

Yu Anzhi is the country's top classical ballet dancer. After her stunning opening performance, the public dubbed her the woman who lives inside a music box.

They say she started dancing as soon as she learned to walk, and is already a veteran of the dance world at a young age. They say she has represented the country in international dance competitions several times, only to narrowly miss out on first place every time.

They say her team bought a sky-high insurance policy for her legs, which are worth as much as a city. They say she's an untouchable fairy who never drinks milk tea or eats candy...

Anzhi smiled silently at these public images, until one rumor claimed she would devote her life to art and never marry or have children. Then she secretly ran away...

The internet was abuzz with speculation. Shi Huaijin smiled as he held a cup of milk tea, then looked down at the little fairy who had descended to earth in his arms. "Is what they're saying true?"

The little fairy gazed at the milk tea in his hand, her eyes sparkling as she sucked on a lollipop. "Let me have a sip, and I'll tell you."

Shi Huaijin leaned down toward her. "Kiss me first."

The little fairy stretched up and pecked him twice on the lips. "It's all false. I'm your fiancee, and that's true."

"You kissed me twice, so I get two sips."

Anzhi: They used closed-door training to make sure dance was the only thing in my life, but I never won that gold medal. What helped me win it was the freedom you gave me.

They tried to use public opinion to make you break off our engagement, but now that fate has brought us together, I won't let go. From childhood on, I was forced to persevere at dancing, but I chose to persevere with you.

#I don't partake of earthly pleasures, but I do partake of you.#

2. Shi Huaijin had known since childhood that he had a fiancee. He had never met her and never cared, until one day his younger sister made him watch a dance video.

Anzhi soared across the stage in a red dress. Every turn and glance, every movement, danced on his heart. All the judges said she perfectly captured a butterfly's lightness, but only he saw a bird trapped in a cage, crying out for freedom.

He never expected that the next day, the bird would fly into his kitchen with a strawberry mousse in her mouth, hide in his arms, cover his mouth, and look extremely nervous.

"I'm not a bad person. I just heard the desserts here were really good, so I came to try them."

"Someone's looking for me outside. Can I hide here?"

Looking into her clear eyes, he turned and led her into a room. "Do you like milk tea?"

"I've never had it."

He made her a cup of bubble tea and placed it by her hand, smiling warmly. "Then why not try it?"

She was his fiancee, and also the bird in a cage he wanted to set free.

Shi Huaijin: They say everything below your chin is legs, but only I have measured them. And only I know how soft your body is and how strong your will is.

True love isn't a cage. It's the freedom to roam the world as you please. That gold medal, just like me, was always meant to be yours.

A fake untouchable fairy who's really a big, adorable foodie & a private chef who loves feeding people sweets at every opportunity, with a food city at home
