Synopsis

*Please see the author’s note in Chapter One for reading information and content warnings.

Blurb:

Song Cheng and Wen Xiangyi have been together for ten years, and Song Cheng has always thought she was being forced into it.

Wen Xiangyi only chose her because she was an athlete and looked decent enough!

Reborn in high school, Song Cheng is determined to study hard and never again become a woman’s plaything.

Most importantly, she must keep Wen Xiangyi from taking an interest in her. She’ll get rid of every single thing Wen Xiangyi likes about her.

At university, Song Cheng can’t hold back any longer. She sneaks off to the gym to lift weights, keeping it a secret.

In the shower room, Wen Xiangyi suddenly pulls back her curtain. Song Cheng clearly sees her gaze linger on her abdomen.

She follows Wen Xiangyi’s gaze and sees her own clearly defined abs.

Alarm bells go off in Song Cheng’s head. She hurriedly explains, “They’re drawn on.”

Wen Xiangyi looks at her stomach, then at the water droplets on Song Cheng’s jaw and neck. After a long pause, she gives an ambiguous “Mm.”

Beautiful but oblivious, sharp-tongued yet soft-hearted, silly and obedient top x mature, lovesick, gentle but domineering bottom

[At seventeen, Wen Xiangyi was a tender young shoot in no need of embellishment. One fleeting encounter was enough to leave Song Cheng frozen in the spring that had suddenly arrived.]

Super Seductive, Super Steamy, I Love It (

Hehe, I feel like all these books cater to my tastes. Ahhh, I love them so much. They’re impossibly good, and they’re also very spicy, especially stories with teasing, seductive bottoms, gloomy yandere characters, possessive bottoms, and queen-like older-sister bottoms.

My Reading List (Mostly Top-Focused GL)

I feel like I've read so many books, only to forget what happened in all of them. I'll revisit them slowly... My reviews and content warnings are pretty random, based on what I remember.

Stories with Male Leads Pursuing Men

GL, gong-focused (mostly younger gong). Not for readers who dislike seeing the gong suffer, though I can just about accept a blazing wife-chasing crematorium.
