My next novel will be Betrayed by My Disciple. Please bookmark it in my author page!
Wen Yu, master of the Red Chamber, is known to the world as the greatest gentleman of his generation, without equal.
In her previous life, Shang Lige's only encounter with the young master was when she pleaded with him from behind a screen to let her live happily ever after with the man she loved.
Reborn, she faces her former lover, who is still as tender as ever. Shang Lige suppresses the scorn in her eyes and gazes at him with pitiful, delicate eyes.
"I have pledged my life to the Red Chamber. In life, I belong to the young master; in death, I'll be his ghost."
Hearing this from outside the curtain, Wen Yu glanced over. At the time, it never crossed his mind that before long he would search a thousand miles and turn the earth upside down, just to imprison her in his arms and share whispered intimacies with her.
He wanted to hide every inch of her bewitching body away from the world.
Shang Lige keeps a notebook. Beside the name Wen Yu, she has written: "Get close to him and win his favor."
After learning the secrets of the Red Chamber, Shang Lige doesn't hesitate to cross his name out, fake her death, and flee. But in a foreign land, she runs into an old acquaintance.
The young master casually flips through her notebook, then points to the page where she crossed out his name and humbly asks, "This student is rather slow-witted. What does it mean to win someone's favor?"
Shang Lige replies, "It means winning people over."
The young master asks again, "And how does one do that?"
Shang Lige grits her teeth, curls a slender finger around his little finger, and smiles coquettishly. "Like this, young master. Do you like it?"
His gaze darkens. After a long pause, he finally replies:
"Very much."

Coming next: Betrayed by My Disciple, originally titled My Disciple Always Thinks He's a Replacement:
At the height of her power, Zhao Jiuning once took a disciple.
She rescued him from the jaws of a demon beast, taught him to read and write, trained him in swordsmanship and cultivation, and cherished him deeply, placing great hopes in him.
Everyone knew Jiang Lanyue was Zhao Jiuning's beloved disciple and the heir to the Sword Saint of Ziwei Peak. No one dared look down on him.
Until the day the Demon-Sealing Mark broke. Zhao Jiuning stayed before it to protect all living beings, but her disciple transformed into the leader of the demonic cultivators. He drove the famous sword Fuguang through her chest. She had personally engraved it with the sword intent of a great master and given it to him as a gift to celebrate his breakthrough.
Betrayed by the disciple she trusted most, Zhao Jiuning lost her Canglan Sword and her life star fell. The Ziwei sect was branded as colluding with demonic cultivators, despised by everyone, and reduced to a scattered few.
When she opened her eyes again, a hundred years had passed.
With a woodcutter's knife in hand, Zhao Jiuning dug Si Lian, covered in wounds, out of a ravine.
He was as lonely and cold as winter, his cultivation likewise ruined, and he had endured betrayal. Only his features bore a slight resemblance to Jiang Lanyue's.
Zhao Jiuning decided to get back up where she had fallen.
"Will you become my disciple?"
·
The day Zhao Jiuning's name rang across the continents once more, Jiang Lanyue was overjoyed.
He knelt before her, intending to kiss the hem of her robe and confess his love.
Zhao Jiuning listened patiently, then ran him through the chest with her sword.
When Si Lian met Zhao Jiuning, he was at his most wretched and destitute. He had lost an eye, his star meridians were destroyed, and he was being hunted.
Zhao Jiuning saved him, treated his wounds, took him as her disciple, and helped him cultivate again.
He thought that for the rest of his life, he would willingly stand behind his master and be someone else's shadow.
But later, he met Jiang Lanyue and saw the resentment, obsession, love, and madness in his eyes.
For the first time, Si Lian let his predatory nature show. He pinned the man to the ground and crushed every one of his delusions, then said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "She's mine."

Theme: Even when surrounded by thorns, forge your own path to a better life.
I did my second brush today and saw some places I hadn't noticed before, and gained some new feelings. As mentioned earlier, when Li Ge was wearing a hairpin, even though she preferred the gilt hairpin given by Ji Zhou, she still wore the double-butterfly hairpin given by the young master. Later, when I went to play polo, I mentioned that Lige got off first before getting off the bus, and then helped the young master get off with her hands. There were several other times when the young master might have just asked him a casual question, but Li Ge felt like she was facing a formidable enemy and tried every means to cover it up, even using some intimate means to get past him. I have a bold idea: She is in awe of the young master, even afraid of him. This fear runs through Li Ge's fear and caution in the first half. In order to survive, she has to please the young master, going against her own will and worrying about every step. She does not expect the young master's thoughts. When Li Ge has some expectations for the young master, the assassination in Tianluo Lane slaps her hard. Li Ge was betrayed in her previous life, so she was extremely insecure. The young master undoubtedly pushed Li Ge away by himself. When I read it for the first time, I only felt that the first part was ambiguous and fascinating, but now I feel sorry for Lige when I read it again. I even wanted to break up with everyone later. Later, the young master said that everyone in the Red Mansion was in a different state after Lige left. I just felt sad. I know that Lige is a soft-hearted girl. She will eventually return to the place where she was once extremely suffocated and depressed. The place where intrigues and intrigues only suppressed her breathlessness. She went back. But in this life, she has received Yin Qianqian, Ji Yun and other friends here, and a master like Zhou Munan, who also has her countless concerns. But I secretly thought that she should want none of these things. If she wants freedom, she should be loyal to freedom. But we have overlooked that Li Ge is not a heroine from time travel. She actually has nothing to rely on except her own skills and some intelligence. Ji Yun even has an older brother who cares about him in every possible way. However, Li Ge has neither a high court nor a person who can trust her wholeheartedly. Perhaps ordinary people say: you only need to look back and you will see the love of the young master. But people today often say that love is unreliable. A woman who wants to take care of her destiny through her own efforts ends up sharing the same mind with the person who controls her destiny. Maybe this should be the ending that that world and that era should have, but I don't think it should be like this. She finally broke free of those shackles, finally embraced freedom, and experienced the vast world, a world under her control. At the end of the story, the young master gets the love of Li Ge, but I think there is actually some calculation on the part of the young master, and his win is not honorable. He seemed to be showing weakness, putting his and Li Ge's identities on a seemingly equal stage, and handing over the initiative to Li Ge, but he still said some words that disturbed people's aspirations. I was very angry at the time: If you want to let a few of you choose, why would you say something that affects her aspirations? In the end, Li Ge got the support of the Prince of Nanning, which reminded me of the end of "Jane Eyre". After inheriting the inheritance from her relatives, Jane Eyre reached an agreement with the hero's status and class. They overcame many difficulties and finally got married, receiving everyone's blessing. In fact, if you think about it carefully, this metaphor is not appropriate, because no one or class is blocking them from being together. However, can Li Ge really get a sense of security from the young master when their status is unequal? The various descriptions above have also shown that the young master is a pampered person who has always been in a high position to strategize. Even though he was once in a state of poverty and embarrassment, his dignity and arrogance have not been shaken. In the end, she seemed to be giving in to Li Ge, but in fact, she pressed harder and forced Li Ge to make a choice. However, Lige's hard work in running the business in Minzhou was no match for the young master's orders. Even if she became a leader, she could be easily kidnapped and secretly persecuted. I think this is also a microcosm of that society. The awakened one struggled but the noble one raised his eyebrows. I can only be glad that the young master is willing to travel with Li Ge to the beautiful mountains and rivers, and there is no disrespect! Maybe I over-interpreted it, or maybe I wasn't doing what I wanted at the time, so I thought the characters in it were also not doing what they wanted.
