Blurb:

In her previous life, Tang Congxin was summoned to the palace at fifteen, then executed by the emperor with a white silk cord when she was twenty. Only as she lay dying did she learn that the so-called imperial favor had been nothing but a thoroughgoing conspiracy.

Reborn, Tang Congxin opened her eyes to find herself in the Empress Dowager's bedchamber, her fingers resting on the Empress Dowager's wrist. She broke into a cold sweat at once.

Afterward, the Empress Dowager asked what reward she wanted. Tang Congxin's eyes darted about, and she lowered her head shyly. "This humble woman fell in love with Prince Huai at first sight. I only ask for more chances to see him and grow closer."

The Empress Dowager agreed.

Prince Huai, summoned to receive the decree, said, "Fine. Just don't chicken out."

In front of the Empress Dowager, Prince Huai was unfailingly courteous. "Thank you, Miss, for your miraculous treatment."

Tang Congxin was mortified.

When they were alone, he cornered her against a wall. "I hear you're smitten with me?"

Tang Congxin was aghast. Could the dignified Prince Huai really have two faces?

That night, Tang Congxin finally got her wish and went on a pleasure boat with Prince Huai to cultivate their relationship. While no one was looking, she tried to jump overboard, but Prince Huai grabbed her by the belt and yanked her into his arms.

Prince Huai said, "Once you're aboard my boat, don't even think about getting off."

From then on, from the martial world to the imperial court, from the snowbound northern frontier to the halls of supreme imperial power, she had boarded his "pirate ship" and truly never got off.

Quirky young doctor x domineering, scheming imperial uncle

Notes:

1. One-on-one romance, slow burn.

2. The story combines the martial world and the imperial court. If that's not your thing, please don't read.

3. This isn't a wish-fulfillment story. The plot and relationship develop seriously and gradually.

Blurb for The Strange Domain Labyrinth [Infinite], coming soon:

As a boy, Jiang Zhu was the "other people's child" in the eyes of teachers and parents. As an adult, he became the "untouchable flower on a high peak" in the eyes of colleagues and friends.

No one knew he kept a secret hidden from the light of day: someone had left a scar on his soul.

Then, on an otherwise ordinary evening, Jiang Zhu was walking alone through the streets when, just after turning a corner, he inexplicably found himself on an unfamiliar island. There, he met someone from his past.

Beneath the blood-red glow of the setting sun, memories of the past shattered into countless fragments and swept over them like snowflakes: the breeze stirred by a boy's uniform as he passed during class, their deliberately distant brush in the old family home, the chase and restlessness in the dark alley...

The man looked just as rebellious as ever. He turned his head toward Jiang Zhu and smiled slowly. "Young master, long time no see."

With danger closing in, the two men, each harboring his own motives, had no choice but to join forces for the time being and face the imminent crisis together, gradually uncovering the secrets behind this bizarre encounter.

Death Island, Sky City, the Imperial Tomb... In the Strange Domain Labyrinth, which door will you open?

Elegant and courteous on the outside, an obsessive stalker within, high-IQ shou x handsome, roguish and flirtatious on the outside, pure-hearted within, highly skilled in martial arts gong

Reader's guide:

1. Plot and romance are equally important. They fall in love while clearing levels.

2. A mystery-solving Infinite-style story, suspenseful with mild horror.

3. First love as teenagers, then rekindled romance.

Theme: May I win one heart, and never be parted until our hair turns white. In her previous life, Tang Congxin was trapped in the inner palace and met a miserable end. Reborn, she only wanted freedom, never expecting to become bound to one person at last and find another kind of freedom.
