Pre-release: You Became a Liar After Losing Your Memory

Princess Yuanhe grew up surrounded by love, but when she first fell in love, she set her heart on the young bodyguard by her side.

The bodyguard was handsome. Yuanhe went out of her way to win him over. At first, he would blush and turn away to refuse her advances. Later, he would blush and softly thank her.

He sent the young princess's heart aflutter, but the Noble Consort found out and pressured them, cruelly tearing the couple apart.

When Yan Chu was young, his exceptional looks once earned him the love of a princess. But just as their romance was blossoming, the princess kicked him off to the borderlands.

Amid the sandstorms that blotted out the sky, Yan Chu came to his senses about love and swore to make that woman regret what she'd done.

A few years later, Yan Chu returned to the capital, bedecked in purple robes and golden seals.

Princess Yuanhe: I'm so scared...

On the first day after his return, the princess claimed to be sick and shut herself indoors.

The now-dark Yan Chu was terrifyingly ruthless: "I'll have my revenge. I'll poison her!"

He made a whole steamer basket of pastries, hesitated for a long time, then closed the lid of the food box with his pale jade fingertips.

He murmured, "Never mind. Next time. Next time, I'll definitely do it!"

Pre-release: You Became a Liar After Losing Your Memory

After Qu Yu was orphaned as a child, Madam Lin took her in and raised her herself. From a young age, Qu Yu knew that Lin Zhixu, the eldest legitimate son of the Lin family, was her betrothed.

But Lin Zhixu spent years away studying and traveling, so the two weren't close.

One year, Lin Zhixu suddenly returned. Qu Yu was out in the mountains with someone, and her betrothed went into the hills to find her. On their way down, the Lin family's carriage was struck by a rolling boulder, and Lin Zhixu was knocked unconscious.

That night, the Lin residence was thrown into chaos. Feeling responsible, Qu Yu volunteered to care for him herself. The next day, Lin Zhixu woke up, but he had lost his memory.

Looking at the refined young man rubbing his forehead in bed, Qu Yu had a bold idea. If Lin Zhixu liked her, then even if the Lin family blamed her for what had happened, surely Lin Zhixu would protect her.

Nervously licking her lips, she gritted her teeth and tugged at his sleeve, speaking softly. "You're finally awake. I was so worried about you."

At her words, Lin Zhixu turned his head and asked hesitantly, "May I ask who you are?"

Qu Yu burst into tears. "I'm your wife-to-be. We were very close as children. As soon as you returned from your studies, you went looking for me, but then the unexpected happened. You were struck by a boulder while protecting me, and that's how you lost your memory."

Lin Zhixu stared at her for a long while, then said doubtfully, "I don't remember you at all."

"Of course you don't remember, you've lost your memory." Afraid he wouldn't believe her, Qu Yu pointed to the jade hairpin she'd just bought and was wearing. "You carved this hairpin for me yourself. Why would I lie to you?"

Perhaps her expression was so sincere that Lin Zhixu nodded as if he believed her.

Qu Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

But the good times didn't last. Lin Zhixu seemed to take their supposed closeness to heart. He clung to her every day and even moved her courtyard next to his.

Six months later, Qu Yu accompanied him to pray for blessings in the mountains. At the very same spot, boulders came tumbling down, striking them both.

Lin Zhixu, whose memory had already returned, smiled at the amnesiac Qu Yu before him.

"You're finally awake. I was so worried about you."

Qu Yu shrank back a little and asked quietly, "Who are you?"

Lin Zhixu twirled a lock of her hair around his finger, his pale eyes full of laughter. He spoke unhurriedly. "I'm your husband-to-be. We were very close as children, but then the unexpected happened..."

Qu Yu looked at the handsome man before her, moved a finger, and asked hesitantly, "Why don't I remember you?"

Lin Zhixu's smile faded, and his eyes darkened. "You've lost your memory, so of course you don't remember. You have a white jade hairpin, don't you? I carved it myself."

Qu Yu scratched her head. "I think I bought that one..."

The man's expression grew grimmer and grimmer, so Qu Yu wisely shut her mouth.

After a long pause, Lin Zhixu's expression returned to normal. "Call me husband. I want to hear it."

Qu Yu asked in disbelief, "But aren't we still betrothed?"

Lin Zhixu chuckled and drawled, "That's because you cling to me so much. Look, you even insisted on moving your courtyard next to mine. I told you so many times, but you wouldn't listen." He sighed as if helpless.

"Why haven't you called me yet?"

"H-Husband?"
