A Beauty in a Honey Jar

[The Pretty Beauty in the Honey Jar is complete. Come check it out!]

A year ago, Zhao Yuzhu had just been reborn. To escape the lecherous Crown Prince's clutches, she did everything she could to cling to her former fiance, who had broken off their engagement.

She knew Xue Yao was incredibly capable and would eventually become Prince Jin, a man whose power could shake the world. Protecting her would be a piece of cake for him, and crushing the incompetent Crown Prince would be as easy as crushing an ant!

She also knew Xue Yao would fall in love with his cousin sooner or later, and no one could change that.

So she wouldn't compete for his love. As long as Xue Yao helped her get away from the Crown Prince, she was willing to strike a deal: she would pretend to be his fiancee for a year...

A year later.

She ran into Xue Yao on the street, pinning a flower in his cousin's hair. Zhao Yuzhu smiled and immediately tossed him the letter breaking off their engagement.

Xue Yao's smile instantly froze. He shot her a sidelong look. "I just finished dealing with the Crown Prince for you, and now you're kicking away the bridge you crossed?"

Zhao Yuzhu kept smiling. "The contract was for one year. No extensions."

Xue Yao said darkly, "Just you dare try."

Try it? Gladly!

A couple of days later, the woman unilaterally announced the end of their engagement, making sure everyone knew about it.

Half a month later, Xue Yao stormed into her bedroom, radiating murderous intent.

Beside the gauze bed curtains, Xue Yao gripped the young woman's chin, his smile icy. "Dare to drink an abortion potion and kill my child? Just you try!"

The young woman bit her lip hard.

"Don't even think about running away! Wait for me to come back and marry you!"

Xue Yao picked up the clothes on the floor and slammed the door on his way out.

Through the gauze curtains, the young woman watched him leave and rubbed her nearly broken waist. Wasn't he supposed to be in love with his cousin???

[Please note: 1. The male lead had no feelings for his cousin in either life. Pinning a flower in her hair is a custom in his maternal family, a way to bless relatives who have come of age. The heroine was simply jealous.

2. The male lead only loves the heroine. He never forced himself on her, and other plotlines are involved.

3. The male lead has a secret identity. Xue Yao is an alias. His real name is Shen Yanzhi.]

After He Ascended the Throne, I Was Reborn (Complete)

The young princess was betrothed to the Crown Prince from birth. But at sixteen, she was drugged and forced to marry the Fourth Prince, who was shunned by the imperial family.

The proud young princess wept with hurt and humiliation.

It was even worse when she learned that the Fourth Prince had also been forced to marry her. He already had someone he loved, and it was her sworn enemy, her cousin.

What hope could there be in spending a lifetime married to a man like that?

That night, she dreamed that the Crown Prince died a violent death, and the Second Prince also met an untimely end.

The Fourth Prince, a son of a disgraced woman who had grown up outside the palace on scraps of leftovers, managed to turn the tables and seize the throne.

The cousin she detested most entered the palace in triumph and became a Noble Consort,

while the young princess...

She woke from the nightmare clutching her chest, unable to breathe, and gasped for air at the edge of the bed. It was bitterly cold, and she had punished the Fourth Prince by making him sleep on the freezing floor below her bed.

She collected herself, picked up the warm, thick quilt from the bed to cover the Fourth Prince, and climbed down with unsteady steps.

The light sleeper Fourth Prince suddenly opened his eyes. "What are you doing?"

The young princess's hand trembled, and the quilt landed... on the man's face.

"I'm... too hot. I can't stand it." The young woman's face flushed red. Barefoot, she stood on the icy floor, stammering in panic.

The Fourth Prince gave her a strange look, then reluctantly got up. Used to her making a fuss over nothing, he dug a thin quilt out of the cupboard and swapped it for hers.

That night, the Fourth Prince stayed warm beneath the thick quilt she had refused to use.

But half-asleep, he could clearly tell that the young princess was freezing beneath the thin quilt.

P.S. The male and female leads are each other's first.

The Bewitching Beauty (Coming Soon)

Su Yaoyao, the daughter of a marquis, had skin as smooth as ice and jade. She was a beauty rarely seen in a century, yet no one came to ask for her hand even after she came of age. Not a single matchmaker showed up.

Because she and her mother both had fox-like, seductive faces, with alluring figures and coquettish voices. Back in the day, her mother had bewitched her husband's elder and younger brothers into making mistakes, leaving the men of the family at odds with each other. They still hadn't made peace.

Which prestigious household with several sons would dare take her as a daughter-in-law?

As rumors mocking her for being unable to marry grew more and more widespread, everyone waited for Su Yaoyao to grow old alone. Then one day, an imperial edict came out, and everyone was stunned: the Crown Prince had taken a fancy to Su Yaoyao and wanted to marry her as his Crown Princess!

People slapped their foreheads. How could they have forgotten that the Crown Prince was an only child with no brothers? There was no one for her to lead astray.

But Su Yaoyao pouted in displeasure. The Crown Prince was so handsome, a man of unsurpassed beauty, a once-in-a-thousand-years sight. After they married, she wouldn't be the most beautiful person in her family anymore. No, she wouldn't marry him!

Crown Prince: ...

Be good, darling. From now on, I'll dress less handsomely, and you'll still be the most beautiful person in your family. How does that sound?

After the Crown Prince Took His Beloved, I Was Reborn (Coming Soon)

Shi Feixuan was born to a noble family and was the beloved niece of Emperor Longde.

She grew up with the Crown Prince, who was like an older brother to her. Everyone knew she was his future Crown Princess, and her life seemed destined to be filled with happiness.

That was until, a few days before their engagement banquet, she caught the Crown Prince gently comforting her sobbing half-sister behind a rockery.

Her father and stepmother urged her not to be petty. "Your half-sister can help you once she enters the palace. When sisters work together, they can accomplish anything."

Empress Jiang reminded her to be magnanimous. "She's only a concubine's daughter. At best, she can be a secondary consort. How could she possibly threaten you? As the Crown Princess, you must be tolerant."

The Crown Prince didn't think much of it. "The Eastern Palace is huge. I'm only giving her a small corner of it. Your position as Crown Princess will always be yours."

Reborn, Shi Feixuan saw things clearly. Her father had long forgotten her late mother and had eyes only for his fox-like stepmother. Empress Jiang was trying to curry favor with her powerful father, so she doted on Shi Feixuan's half-sister. And the Crown Prince's beloved had never been her.

Shi Feixuan sneered, dragged her half-sister along, and threw herself in tears before her imperial uncle, resolutely canceling the engagement ceremony.

Empress Jiang smiled gently. "Your Majesty, the invitations went out long ago. Even the imperial relatives from the southwest have come to the capital. We can't let them laugh at us, can we? The engagement must go ahead."

Shi Feixuan rushed into her imperial uncle's arms. "Imperial Uncle, we don't have to cancel the engagement banquet, but I want to get engaged to someone else."

"Who?" Emperor Longde asked.

"The Fourth Prince!" Shi Feixuan looked around and pointed at the Fourth Prince, who had just stepped into the hall.

The Fourth Prince stopped in his tracks.

The Crown Prince's face turned livid. She had to know when to stop fooling around. How could she marry some random man just to spite him?

Unexpectedly, Emperor Longde slowly nodded. "Done."

At first, the Crown Prince thought Shi Feixuan was just venting her anger. He figured he could apologize and sweet-talk her afterward. But at the engagement banquet a few days later, she was dressed in all her finery and still ignored him, walking straight into the crowded hall with the Fourth Prince's hand in hers. Only then did the Crown Prince truly panic.

Empress Jiang nearly ground her teeth to dust. The Fourth Prince was the orphaned son of the late empress, and his status was a notch above her own son's. Now that he had gained Shi Feixuan's support, Emperor Longde might reconsider who should be crown prince.

After the Male Lead Welcomed Back His Beloved, I Was Reborn (Coming Soon)

Rong Yue was the most favored princess of the Dazhao Kingdom, but she fell in love with Yang Zhao at first sight and ruined her life.

On the day the exam results were posted, Rong Yue acted on a whim and snatched up a husband from the crowd, carrying the elegant top scholar back to her residence to arrange their engagement.

She didn't know that Yang Zhao's mother had sent his childhood sweetheart and cousin back to her hometown to make this marriage happen. On the way, bandits attacked her and took her chastity. That wound became a thorn buried deep in Yang Zhao's heart.

Three years later, Yang Zhao's father had gained enough power to usurp the throne.

Only then did Rong Yue learn that Yang Zhao's father was the Crown Prince who had escaped when the former emperor was killed.

Yang Zhao's father ascended the throne, and Yang Zhao was duly named Crown Prince. Rong Yue not only failed to become Crown Princess, but her entire family was executed because her mother was a princess.

On the day she was taken to the execution grounds, she heard that Yang Zhao had gone back to his hometown to bring his cousin back and would soon name her Crown Princess.

Rong Yue smiled bitterly.

When she opened her eyes, Rong Yue had been reborn.
