The Little Liar and the Foolish Crown Prince

Please add my upcoming novel The Bandit's Captive Beauty to your collection. Its blurb is below~

Blurb for this novel: Chen Xiangyin gets into the wrong bridal sedan and is forced to marry the crown prince of an enemy nation. She hears that the prince is foolish by day but returns to normal at night. Whether he's truly mad or just pretending, she'll rely on her old tricks: swindle his money, seduce him, and play with his feelings, all to find a chance to get away as soon as possible.

After accidentally exposing a secret case, she gets her wish and leaves the palace. But nothing goes right, and every scheme ends up backfiring on her. Just as she's about to lose everything, a scornful voice sounds behind her: "With a scam this familiar, how could you not see through it?"

Her vision went black as someone tied her up and carried her back to the manor.

*

The crown prince had never known a shred of familial love. He'd fought his way through with nothing but his own flesh and blood, only to be ambushed through someone else's treachery. When the pain became unbearable on moonlit nights and he lashed out with his fists and feet, a beauty would take his fists in her soft, tender hands and say in the soothing tone one might use with a fool, "There, there."

They heal each other, 1v1, HE.

The leads are native to this world; the supporting characters are reborn.

Blurb for the upcoming novel The Bandit's Captive Beauty:

Mei Qingjian comes from a family of generals. Her father was framed and died on the battlefield, while her older brother was exiled and disappeared. She is captured and taken up a mountain by accident. The bandit chief is bright-eyed, handsome, and tall, nothing like the fierce, scary brute of legend, and he's quite considerate toward her, though he doesn't seem to know how to behave.

When she catches a chill, the chief says, "Drink more hot water."

When she's wearing the trendiest bitten-lip makeup, the chief says, "You haven't applied your lip color evenly."

When she asks for his opinion, the chief gives her the three-part answer: "Whatever you want. Either way is fine. Looks good."

Mei Qingjian holds her forehead and patiently lectures him. "At this rate, you'll never find a wife. You should do it like this..."

Later, her brother returns to court and roots out the corrupt officials. She comes down the mountain and resumes her life as a young lady who always gets her way, only to be swept off her feet and onto a horse by someone on the road, who makes her blush with just a few words.

Looking at the flirtatious husband she trained herself, she finds she can't quite bring herself to give him away...

*

The bandit chief had seen her before, in the backyard of his sworn brother's home. She was only seven then. She fell out of a tree and injured his right arm. The little girl was terrified. Sobbing, she clung to his arm and called out to him, though he was the same age as her older brother: "Uncle, I'm sorry."

Free-spirited little wolfdog heroine x earnest, rough-hewn hero
