Where Love Leads

Starts November 7, updates whenever inspiration strikes.

--

The year Li Yuan met Gu Zhongyi, she was nineteen. She liked wearing cotton dresses and white sneakers, and she laughed often. Her eyes held the fresh innocence of someone who knew little of the world. She came from a comfortable family and had been dating her boyfriend for a year.

Later, Gu Zhongyi personally clipped her wings, until she gave in and yielded.

He was a Satan born of the darkness, and the only light he ever pursued was Li Yuan.

A refined scoundrel x a truly gullible girl

The plot comes first, so don't judge the characters by your own standards. Feel free to curse out the male lead, just don't drag the innocent author into it ^-^

Content warnings:

1. The leads have a seven-year age gap. This is an old-school, tropey story.

2. The male lead is not a good person, and the female lead is no universally adored beauty. Most of the male supporting characters are simply there to move the plot forward and won't have romantic sparks with the female lead.

3. The story starts slowly. The female lead's feelings for the male lead develop after she breaks up with her ex, who doesn't appear much.

4. We're all here to enjoy a story, so let's keep things light and cheerful~

Wu Xiaowang is here to wish you all an early happy new year!

My new novel, Call Me Sweetie, is in the drafting stage.

When Chu Weiyi learned that the person she had been pining for was actually her fiance, he was sitting on the sofa in her living room, leisurely sipping a cup of hot tea. He gave her, just as she walked in looking bewildered, an inscrutable smile.

She understood the look on his face. At a friend's birthday party that day, she had mistaken him for a waiter carrying drinks in the hallway of a club. On impulse, she'd groped his butt and shamelessly discussed with her best friend whether it would cost 8,888 to take this handsome guy with a peachy backside home.

Later, she got drunk, and somehow the two of them spent an ambiguous night together. When she woke up, the man lying beside her gave her a provocative look and asked with a smirk, "So, Miss Chu, was your 8,888 well spent?"

Chu Weiyi left a bank card behind and fled.

On their wedding day, he cornered her at the bedroom door and pinned her hands down. His gaze dark, he demanded, "You thought twenty thousand yuan would be enough to get rid of me?"

She retorted guiltily, "That was a generous tip. Wasn't it enough?"

Only that night did she learn that he had gone to great lengths to marry her.

Theme: Only love can heal everything.
