My Archenemy Is Acting a Little Strange

[Sequel: "Criminal Investigation: A Light in the Darkroom". Synopsis at the very bottom!] [Two-faced, ruthless, scheming beauty who seems innocent on the surface, the bottom × Fierce and intimidating to everyone else, but gentle and considerate only to the bottom, a loyal puppy and wolfdog all in one, the top] [Both reborn / Mutual secret crushes / 1v1 / Happy ending] At the age of twenty, Yun Shou inherited the Yun family estate and entered the imperial court. Ruthless and unscrupulous, he schemed at every turn to clear his grandfather's name and exact revenge. Though he eventually avenged his grandfather, he ended up trapped in a desperate situation, burdened with a deadly poison. Before his death, the only person who tried with all his might to save him, and who ultimately faced death at his side without hesitation, was the Crown Prince's grandson, Ming Heqing, whom Yun Shou had once believed to be his sworn enemy. Reborn, Yun Shou sees everything clearly and understands it all. He only wants to find hard evidence, deal with his true enemy, then leave the imperial court and live out the rest of his days in peaceful seclusion. But the Crown Prince's grandson, who in his previous life was so composed, dignified, and serious, now keeps finding excuses to have heart-to-heart talks or admire the moon with him. When all else fails, he uses one pretext or another to take Yun Shou out for a stroll, and every so often acts sweet and tries to charm him. Yun Shou: ... Yun Shou: You're acting weird. Very weird. * In his previous life, Ming Heqing believed he owed Yun Shou for his mother's actions. No matter what Yun Shou did, he silently put up with it, never realizing that a treacherous schemer would exploit the situation. After being reborn, Ming Heqing learned just two things: First, make sure to have a heart-to-heart with your sweetheart every few days, whether you have a reason or not. Talk things through and share your feelings. Second, a man who knows how to act cute has the best luck. In short, the Crown Prince's guards were later endlessly curious about the expressions on the faces of those who called Ming Heqing a fearsome devil when they saw the dignified Crown Prince's grandson nestled in Lord Yun's arms, asking to be kissed, hugged, and lifted up high. PS: This is not a cultivation novel in the traditional sense, though cultivation levels, magical artifacts, and things like that do come up. [Synopsis for the next novel] If you like it, please add it to your favorites! [Carefree, two-faced, decisive and resolute, concealing his true abilities, exceptionally skilled in combat, baby-faced bottom × Serious, upright, disciplined, a well-rounded old-school official with an unexpectedly adorable side, top] [Yu Miao (bottom) × Jiang Zhaolan (top)] PS: The extra skill is secretly acting cute in private. Nine years ago, Yu Miao disappeared without even saying goodbye. Jiang Zhaolan didn't even know whether Yu Miao was alive or dead. For years, all he did was work overtime and wait for Yu Miao to come back. Nine years later, during a long-planned operation called "Homecoming," jointly organized by multiple agencies to investigate and bring down a criminal network, Jiang Zhaolan finally learned that Yu Miao had spent all those years walking the line between good and evil, adhering to his principles in the most all-or-nothing way possible. Returning home, Yu Miao emerged from the shadows and stood openly in the bright sun beneath the national flag, smiling radiantly at Jiang Zhaolan. "I once swore before the national flag, 'I will devote my life to this noble calling, stay true to my original purpose, and serve until death.' I gave my word, and I kept it." After Jiang Zhaolan pinned the police insignia Yu Miao had waited nine years for onto his sword-shaped shoulder board, he smiled and said: "Welcome home, Officer Yu." * Beneath the glamour and extravagance lie dark swamps that threaten to engulf the rising sun. Countless temptations and desires wear borrowed names, trapping and dragging people along. Some go with the flow and repeat what everyone else says; others worship blindly and take reckless risks... "And what about a third option?" "Better to die making a stand than live in silence." Darkness can devour only the body. The soul will remain forever pure. This is not only a way to break free from the many shackles of life, but also the principle a people's police officer upholds for life. * PEA levels can probably only stay at their peak for an average of 2.5 years. People aren't naturally inclined to love someone forever, but you are the one I will defy nature for, faithful until death.
