1-

Xu Yunzhi has no influential family background and is the fiancee of Zheng Yannong, a famous jewelry designer. She's an ordinary girl, while he was born into a family of great wealth. They're a poor match in status.

Young Master Zheng has never made their relationship public. Everyone in the know thinks he never truly cared about her.

Once again, Zheng Yannong was caught up in a romantic scandal. Xu Yunzhi looked at the photos and felt completely worn out. Without hesitation, she broke off her engagement to the Zheng family and cut all ties.

At first, Zheng Yannong assumed she was just playing hard to get, so he joined forces with others to suppress her, waiting for her to come crawling back. He never expected Xu Yunzhi not only to refuse to give in, but also to start dating his sworn enemy!

The only son of the Ji family, the wealthiest family in the country, was handsome and refined, one of the most outstanding members of his generation.

He was a young lawyer with the highest success rate in court and the most sought-after eligible bachelor among the old-money families. Then, out of the blue, he got engaged!

The engagement ceremony drew countless guests and powerful figures. Ji Zhuoxiu wore a white suit and was the center of attention.

One of his admirers, furious and indignant, showed up and made a scene, saying his fiancee was good for nothing.

The tall, refined man heard her and retorted with a cold laugh: How could the woman I love be ordinary?

Halfway through the ceremony, Zheng Yannong tricked Xu Yunzhi into a secluded corner and spoke with a tenderness he'd never shown before: "Yunzhi, come back to me."

He had just taken out a ring when his arms were twisted behind his back.

Ji Zhuoxiu had rushed over. Anger was rising in his usually calm eyes behind his glasses. "Mr. Zheng, show some respect. She's my fiancee."

From then on, Xu Yunzhi kept receiving evidence that Ji Zhuoxiu was using her.

One day, after drinking, Ji Zhuoxiu clasped Xu Yunzhi's slender, pale wrist, looking dejected. "Yunzhi, do you really not care at all?"

Xu Yunzhi didn't answer directly. "We're not really getting married, so how much can it matter whether I care?"

The man leaned against Xu Yunzhi's shoulder, his voice low. "Who says I don't want to really marry you?"

"Yunzhi, I've wanted to steal you away for a long time."

The first person Ji Zhuoxiu met after arriving in Zhoucheng was Xu Yunzhi.

Back then, he had nothing. All he could do was watch Xu Yunzhi orbit Zheng Yannong, pretending to be a stranger to her.

When they met again, she was isolated and helpless, but the warmth in her clear, beautiful eyes hadn't faded despite all she had suffered.

This time, he was going to steal her away!

Next novel:

Forest Firefighting series, "Sweet Rain"

Character setup: earnest, baby-faced female journalist x handsome, sharp-tongued instructor

☆

Two unexpected arrivals left all the soldiers at Yecheng's Forest Armed Police Company astonished:

1. Zhang Linlin, a petite, baby-faced reporter

2. Instructor Gan Runze, fair-skinned and handsome

No one thought the baby-faced reporter could make a good documentary, and even fewer thought the fair-skinned prince could lead his soldiers well.

But later, Zhang Linlin's documentary won a major award, and Instructor Gan led his team to first place in the competition.

☆

There was never any shortage of rivals in Zhang Linlin's career, but she'd never met a man more handsome or fair-skinned than her. Once she decided Gan Runze was a pretty boy, she never gave him the time of day. But later...

He was the one who rescued her from a fire, the one who pulled her back from the brink of being kidnapped and killed, and the one who gave her a home.

On their wedding day, Zhang Linlin looked up at the man in his flame-blue uniform. "Gan Runze, I take back what I said."

The man looked at her and smiled. "Which thing?"

"That we would be at each other's throats for the rest of our lives."

"Then I'll take back something, too." The man drew Zhang Linlin into his arms.

"What?"

"That whoever married you would be the unlucky one."

[Meeting you was the luckiest thing that ever happened to me, like long-awaited rain after a drought.]

Theme: Love is courage.
