Fang Shujing always thought her childhood friend, Rong Shenchuan, was a bookworm who did nothing but study: dull and stiff, wasting a perfectly good face.

Later, the two families arranged their marriage. Fang Shujing took it in stride and joined Rong Shenchuan in a three-year marriage that was only for show.

They didn't interfere with each other, and kept clear boundaries.

When a friend brought it up, Fang Shujing only laughed casually. "It's a marriage in name only. We each live our own lives. As long as nothing goes wrong, he can do whatever he wants."

She thought this loveless marriage would last forever.

-

Until one day, amid the bright lights and revelry, she spotted a figure she knew all too well.

Rong Shenchuan sat lazily in the shadows, a beautiful woman beside him. His expression was casual and carefree.

His shirt collar was still buttoned all the way up, but the vivid red lipstick mark on his chest blazed like fire, hot and eye-catching.

As for whose eyes it caught, Fang Shujing choked on her words.

It was the first time she'd realized this man was more than a bookworm. That handsome face hadn't gone to waste either: one little red lipstick mark was enough to make him look utterly abstinent and captivate who knew how many women.

She forced a smile and walked up to tease him as if it were nothing. "You're really letting loose. Be careful someone doesn't make you take responsibility."

As soon as she finished speaking, Rong Shenchuan abruptly grabbed her wrist and pressed her slender fingers against the lipstick mark.

His gaze burned with a hint of amusement. He leaned close to her ear and drawled each word slowly:

"So whoever left the mark has to take responsibility?"

"..."

Rong Shenchuan chuckled.

"So, my wife is finally willing to take responsibility?"

- All the world's beauty and romance cannot compare to the love poems you give me.

Sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, glamorous bartender x scheming, ruthless tycoon

Childhood friends / marriage first, love later / both each other's first and only / devoted to one another in body and heart from beginning to end

Blurb:

Liang Zhi always knew that Qin Qu married her only to rebel against his family's plans for him.

Even though she got her wish and became the enviable Mrs. Qin, she would never find a place in his heart.

So she carefully hid her seven-year-long crush, lowering her eyes and playing the role of his "shield" without a word of complaint.

She also knew that Qin Qu had a white moonlight in his heart.

The day his white moonlight returned would be the day she obediently gave up her place as Mrs. Qin.

So when she heard that the woman was coming back, Liang Zhi decided to file for divorce first.

-

The day Liang Zhi mailed her ring back, Qin Qu thought she was throwing a tantrum. He simply laughed it off, not even sparing it a second glance.

After all, she had always been the one to give in.

He never imagined that, over the next three years, every night would find him tossing and turning, eyes red, his heart twisting with regret over what he'd done that day.

Nor did he imagine that the woman who had once loved him with all her heart would be so resolute once she stopped loving him.

No matter how much he begged, she wouldn't even look back.

-

Later on.

No one would have expected Qin the Third, always so carefree and laid-back, to brave the blizzard and wait all night outside a small wooden cabin.

Snow piled on his shoulders, and he didn't even notice.

The fire inside the cabin burned brightly, its glow reflected in the window.

The woman by the window didn't look his way once. When she lifted a hand to tuck back her hair, the diamond ring on her left ring finger flashed with a dazzling light.

Qin Qu tugged at the corner of his mouth, but refused to leave.

-

When I love you with unwavering devotion, even dying embers can set the plains ablaze.

-[Gentle and stubborn x carefree and cold-hearted]

- One couple, both virgins, happy ending. The heroine does not marry anyone else.

- Groveling husband trope and melodrama ahead.

- The author really can't write blurbs. Banging my head against the wall and begging you to click through and read the story, qwq.

[Blurb for Toward the Stars]

The day before Xie Xunxing was released from the transplant chamber, Jiang Ling stood outside it, gathered her courage, and haltingly signed to him:

"Big Brother, you have to stay healthy and live a long life."

The young man had cool, distant features. Sitting quietly beside the hospital bed, he looked like a painting.

The moment their eyes met, Jiang Ling fled in a panic.

-

Eight years later, a young man who had just won astronomy's highest honor stepped down from the podium amid the crowd's attention, then disappeared from the venue.

Leaning against the door of the medical team's lounge, he casually hooked a finger into the back of a young woman's collar and leaned close to her ear with a muffled laugh. "Little mute, how can Big Brother live a long life without you?"

-

No one knew that after Jiang Ling left that day, Xie Xunxing had slowly walked up to the glass window and reverently kissed the spot where the girl's shadow had fallen.

His eyes half-lowered, he looked through the transparent glass and silently mouthed:

"Okay."
