[Main story complete] Please add my upcoming novel, Wen Wan, to your library. Its blurb is at the bottom. At seventeen, Yu Jingxian married the man she loved, full of hope. She thought she would be happy for the rest of her life, but instead she was trapped in a desolate, dilapidated estate, and her life was wasted away there. When she awoke again, it was just as the scoundrel was proposing marriage. Sick of him and unwilling to get entangled with him again, Yu Jingxian resolutely turned him down. She knew she couldn't rely on a man or his family background. Only by relying on herself could she feel secure. Yet she never expected to be caught between being forced into marriage and breaking off engagements, over and over! She caused such a stir in Shengjing that no one dared marry her. Unfazed, she lived life to the fullest, only to realize belatedly that at some point a handsome man had appeared by her side... Ye Jin used repaying a debt of gratitude as an excuse to meddle in her affairs, and even volunteered to keep an eye on her useless younger brother... He went so far as to "help" her ruin one marriage arrangement after another... Until one day, after getting no response, Ye Jin cornered Yu Jingxian and asked softly, a smile in his eyes, "Jingxian, could we repay this debt of gratitude in a better way?"
