You’re Picking on Me [Wealthy Family]

The main story is complete. Bonus chapters are being posted. Next up: "Want to Go Viral? Get a Divorce."

Blurb:

Ye Nan, adopted daughter of the chairman of a world-famous hotel group, wore a red dress,

with fair skin and beautiful features, and light makeup.

Her lowered eyes made her look like a Buddha, but when she looked up, she was a temptress.

She handled herself effortlessly at the group's welcome banquet, stealing the spotlight,

when a link to Amazon's "Handsome Monks Catalog" suddenly popped up on her phone.

A photo of a handsome monk practicing with his hair still on appeared before her.

He wore a spotless ink-black robe, with pale wrists,

long fingers, and a focused, pure gaze.

He was so handsome and upright, so aloof and disciplined.

Ye Nan clutched her phone, so angry she nearly ground her teeth to dust:

After four years apart, Sui Jianian was actually going to buy a temple in Japan and become a monk!

The socialites who envied her saw what was happening and began whispering among themselves:

"Oh, Ye Nan looks so upset. Could the Sui family be about to kick her out?"

"The eldest Sui heir should have come back to inherit the family business ages ago. What's an adopted daughter worth? She'll be thrown out with nothing sooner or later."

"Brother Jianian is handsome, gentle, young, and wealthy. If I married him, the first thing I'd do is kick Ye Nan, who bullied him, out of the house."

At last, Ye Nan granted the socialites their wish, severing ties with the wealthy family and ending her adoption.

Sui Jianian hurried back to save her and pulled the "demon in his heart" whom he could never bring himself to love into his arms. "Who's bullying you?"

Ye Nan clung to Sui Jianian, now legally unrelated to her, and said miserably, "You are."

Blurb for "Want to Go Viral? Get a Divorce":

In the third year of Ning Yixing's marriage to Xie Jiaoyang, the heir to a wealthy family,

the man who had spent the whole year out partying came home for his first love's birthday party.

His first love looked down on Ning Yixing and said to her close friend, "It's just an old-fashioned arranged marriage. Brother Yang has been sick of housewives like her for ages. It's only a matter of time before they divorce."

Ning Yixing glanced at her handsome, charming husband, smiling on the outside, while trembling with anger inside.

That's right. She had secretly loved him for seven years, and spent three years in a marriage where she was basically a widow.

At the peak of her popularity, she quit acting and left show business to become a full-time housewife just because he asked.

But living with him was like sitting in an ice cellar all day. Her heart had gone cold.

Divorce wasn't a matter of when. It was a must.

A friend laughed and asked, "Brother Yang, you're really going to leave things like this? Aren't you going after her?"

Xie Jiaoyang flicked the ash from his cigarette and sneered. "No need. She's just throwing a tantrum."

2.

After three years of a marriage where she was basically a widow,

Ning Yixing returned to show business, with a top actor paving the way and countless friends in the industry reaching out to her.

After she shot to fame, one admirer after another came calling,

and the trending topics were full of rumors about her love life.

At last, Xie Jiaoyang couldn't sit still any longer.

A lunar meteorite worth tens of millions once again sent Ning Yixing to the top of the trending topics.

It came with a love note: "A beautiful star for you, just like my love for you, eternal and unchanging."

Nosy netizens were astonished to discover: that handwriting... why did it look more and more like that of Xie Jiaoyang, the heir to a certain conglomerate, who had recently been rumored to be marrying his first love?

Before long, Xie Jiaoyang called her.

He poured his heart out: "The most beautiful meteorite for the person I love most. Will you come back to me?"

Ning Yixing sneered. "Sure, if this meteorite can crash through your shameless face on its way down."
