Description:
Hu Shanlan was born with such captivating beauty that countless men were drawn to her. Her family sent her to the Minister's residence to secure a position as imperial merchants, and she became the concubine of Zheng Wei, a secondary son.
Zheng Wei was upright and refined, with an exceptionally handsome face. He would carry her home on dark nights and tenderly apologize whenever he upset her, indulging her in everything. Hu Shanlan thought, how could a man like him not stir her heart?
So, when he told her not to make a fuss, she tolerated his cousin's many schemes. Knowing his circumstances were difficult, she endured the Zheng family's abuse and persecution. Her family finally secured the imperial merchant position, but Zheng Wei's legitimate elder brother molested her in front of a crowd, ruining her reputation.
Holding her in his arms, Zheng Wei comforted her again and again: "It doesn't matter whether you become my principal wife. You're the only one in my heart..."
Hu Shanlan gave everything she had to make sure Zheng Wei reached the examination hall safely. He sat his exams for several days, and she was forced to kneel for just as long.
On the day the good news arrived, Hu Shanlan still couldn't get out of bed. Then she heard him speak of her indifferently to someone: "She's just a plaything. Don't take her seriously."
She even learned that he had orchestrated the disaster himself. Little by little, he shattered her desperate hope that he would offer an explanation: "Your family has no standing at court. How could you be my principal wife?"
Hu Shanlan fell gravely ill and nearly died. When she woke, she finally understood: it had all been part of his scheme.
*
Several months later, Zheng Wei saw Hu Shanlan, whom he had searched for so long, standing in a newly opened silk shop in the city. She chatted and laughed, her alluring eyes sweeping over him with a coldness that made it seem as if she didn't know him.
He rushed toward her in a frenzy. Who could have imagined that when he used himself as bait to lure her into his trap and make her a pawn, he would end up ensnaring himself, too?
But even after he begged humbly and went through life and death several times, she only smiled faintly. "I was just saying. Why did you believe me, my lord?"
1. Delicate, soft beauty × refined scoundrel.
2. Both leads are virgins. One-on-one.
3. Updates: Before the paid chapters, updates follow the platform schedule. Afterward, daily updates. If I can't update, I'll take leave in advance.

A Record of the Heir's Groveling Arc
As a noblewoman raised to be prudent and proper, the boldest thing Bai Zhixia ever did was ask Lu Yan to marry her, since he owed her his life. She always remembered how, years ago, when she rescued him from a pond, the boy had clutched her hand and begged, "Don't leave me..."
But it seemed she was the only one who remembered those words.
Lu Yan was convinced she had schemed to harm his childhood sweetheart. He resented her for using her life-saving favor to claim his position as her husband, and treated her with cold distance. He even brought his widowed childhood sweetheart into the prince's residence and cared for her attentively. Each and every thing he did tormented Bai Zhixia.
When the Bai family was framed and sentenced to execution, Bai Zhixia knelt before him with divorce papers in hand, begging him to clear their name. Lu Yan flung the papers to the ground and sneered, "Keep dreaming..."
On the day the Bai family was executed, Lu Yan confined her to her room and forbade her from collecting their bodies. After noon passed, Bai Zhixia vomited blood again and again, then died before his eyes.
Lu Yan thought Bai Zhixia was putting on an act. But when he moved her body, he saw the scar on her leg.
Years ago, on Mount Fuyu, he had only seen the girl who rescued him cut her leg underwater, the blood staining the water before his eyes... Yet all these years, he had believed his childhood sweetheart was the one who had saved him.
*
Lu Yan was reborn.
The first thing he did was go to the Bai residence, only to see Bai Zhixia smiling warmly with a handsome young man, her expression gentle.
Not long afterward, Lu Yan, the decisive heir to Prince Jin, knelt at Bai Zhixia's feet, his eyes red.
"Yingying, I'm the boy from Mount Fuyu."
Bai Zhixia smiled carelessly.
"My boy died on Mount Fuyu a long time ago."
1. Both leads are reborn. The female lead saves the male lead twice.
2. Dramatic angst and ridiculous misunderstandings, with no white moonlight. The so-called childhood sweetheart is only tied to him by gratitude and responsibility. The male lead has always loved the female lead but was deceived and kept in the dark.
The Emperor's Groveling Arc After My Death by Chi Xiaotai
Out of gratitude for saving his life, the sparrow demon Li Shuang fell in love with the mortal boy Shi Yong. She gave up her life pearl to rewrite his ill-fated destiny, and was frozen for ten thousand years in return.
After ten thousand years, Li Shuang finally ascended to immortality, only to learn that Shi Yong was the reincarnated form of the Silver River Emperor, who had descended to the mortal realm to undergo a trial. The Silver River Emperor was the only ancient deity left in the Ninth Heaven, pure and untainted, who cultivated the path of emotionlessness and had forgotten his mortal memories.
Unable to forget their past, Li Shuang was willing to serve in his residence as an obscure immortal attendant, just for the chance to see him now and then.
At his request, she plucked out her most precious feathers and traded them to the Hundred Flowers Immortal so that the agarwood blossoms would bloom forever, but he never looked at them again. To cure his poison, she willingly served the Demon Lord for fifty years, but when she returned, he didn't even ask her a single question...
For thousands upon thousands of years, even though he never cherished her, she still refused to turn away.
Until the Silver River Emperor forced her to the Execution Immortal Terrace for the sake of Princess Luofan of the Heavenly Realm: "We just need to cut out your Seven Apertures Exquisite Heart to save Luofan. Don't be afraid. It'll be over soon. It won't hurt."
At that moment, her heart turned to ash, and her eyes could no longer shed a single tear.
"Fine. You can have my life pearl and my heart. From now on, I owe you nothing." Smiling, she cut out her heart and leaped from the Execution Immortal Terrace.
Watching her divine soul get torn apart by the astral winds, the Silver River Emperor went deathly pale and staggered back.
Reading note: The male lead loves no other woman. Both leads are virgins. One-on-one, happy ending.
Theme: True love must never be abandoned.

Um... I thought the male protagonist was Shen, but Shen is actually quite good in the role. It wouldn't make sense for Zheng to die and replace the female protagonist (not a writing guide, just a personal opinion)
This Rokuro is too weak! He was beaten, injured, and vomited blood at every turn... He had no real power at all. How many times did he save the heroine just by being beaten, and the injuries were resolved?
If Shen Da commits suicide, will it be possible for Jin Chan to escape from his shell? TvT Otherwise, the second sister would be too miserable...
I don't understand why the male protagonist received such a beating. He was so angry. Did he really want to take revenge on his family? I didn't see it. He had gone so far and let him be beaten and be beaten, or else he should go back and listen to his father and be a good baby. His only focus is on dealing with the heroine, and when it comes to dealing with other people besides the heroine, especially the Zheng family and the Yu family, he honestly doesn't know how to do anything.
It's so touching. The author's writing is so good. I just want to watch a movie. I feel so melancholy [Tuck my chin][Tuck my chin]
I like this pair of sisters better
So-so. I didn't want to read it after seeing this. It was just that I was attracted by some old pervert again. Then the male protagonist quietly solved it. I bought a few chapters later. It was about the same, but a bit boring. Maybe my requirements for the crematorium were too high, and this level was not enough to make my heart move. And another point is that arranging a second male protagonist to entrust the male protagonist... It makes it even more obvious that the male protagonist is not a toy. Respect the blessings
I really hate this kind of cannon fodder who is looking for trouble. Apart from creating opportunities for the male protagonist, it has no other use.
My daughter did a beautiful job~ Xiao Shen is so nice!!
Sigh the lost magic medicine +1. Following the old saying about drug addiction, a bad drug comes out, hehe. The author defeats the enemy with one move (finally no longer has to worry about writing the ending of the male supporting character to focus on the main plot)
