Post-Marriage Heartbeats GL [Reborn]

Completed. The blurb for my new novel, "After I Got Entangled with an Obsessive Beauty [Quick Transmigration]," is at the bottom. Feel free to bookmark it if you're interested.

Shi Qing had died once before. During the years her spirit drifted about, she witnessed her half-brother's betrayal and schemes, the collapse of the family business, and her mother's death from illness...

It had all happened because she had no interest in the family business and trusted the wrong people.

Fortune smiled on her and gave her a second chance. She returned to two years before her death.

Before long, her younger brother would take full control of the company, and she would be forced to "die of cancer."

Shi Qing chose to fight back, but she had spent her entire life painting and knew nothing about running a business.

So she set her sights on Fu Yibai, rumored to be the finest business talent in Jiangcheng.

The Fu family had been in business for generations, with an empire far beyond the reach of a small family like hers.

But only Shi Qing knew how many nights Fu Yibai had stood before her grave, eyes full of sorrow, confessing her love.

In this life, Shi Qing looked at Fu Yibai's indifferent expression and smiled as she proposed marriage, using it as a way to stay alive and strike back.

Sure enough, a flicker of delight passed through the eyes of the woman pretending not to care. She maintained her cool, reserved composure as she agreed, claiming she only wanted to avoid her family's nagging about marriage.

After the wedding, Shi Qing initially considered theirs a simple transaction: she would offer companionship, and in return she would receive protection.

But as Fu Yibai drew closer, she realized that perhaps from the moment she proposed, or even earlier, she had been unable to suppress her feelings for Fu Yibai. She was falling deeper with every step.

.

Fu Yibai had been in love with Shi Qing since she was young, but feared rejection, so she kept her feelings secret.

Only after Shi Qing died of cancer did she finally confess her love, and then she was speaking to a cold tombstone.

Years later, an air disaster struck her. She closed her eyes, then opened them to find time had turned back. She had returned to two years before Shi Qing's death.

There was still time. Even knowing Shi Qing would die of cancer, spending two years by her side would be enough.

When she saw Shi Qing, Fu Yibai's racing heart had yet to settle when the other woman proposed marriage.

A dream come true. She had no reason to refuse.

Not long after the wedding, she guessed that Shi Qing might have been reborn, and learned she was merely a tool for Shi Qing to take control of the company and exact revenge.

But she was still willing, as long as Shi Qing survived, even if Shi Qing would leave her once everything was done.

Yet just as she hesitated over whether to set Shi Qing free, Shi Qing gently returned her kiss one night when she pretended to be drunk and asked for one.

At that moment, it was as if a vine had broken through the soil around her heart and wrapped itself tightly around her. She lowered her eyes, knowing she would never be able to let go for the rest of her life.

[Shi Qing's Perspective]

"I embraced you as a spirit when you spent your birthday alone."

"I wiped away your tears as a spirit, but sadly, they passed right through my fingers."

"I traveled with you as a spirit and watched you turn down beautiful women who came to hit on you again and again. I couldn't help sneaking a laugh."

"I think I fell for you a long time ago, but back then, there was nothing in my chest that could beat. How lucky I am to have another chance, so I can truly feel my heart fluttering because of you."

1. A sweet married-life story about two women who have both been reborn. A reserved painter who is slow to realize her feelings is the bottom × a seemingly proper CEO who has been in love for years is the top.

2. Three-year age gap. They switch, but the older woman is more often the bottom. Mainly told from Shi Qing's perspective.

3. Both are virgins; happy ending; one-on-one. Not a face-slapping wish-fulfillment story. The revenge is only briefly covered, but she definitely succeeds.

"After I Got Entangled with an Obsessive Beauty [Quick Transmigration]"

Jiang You's mission is to complete the career path of the original character in each small world.

For example, get into a good university in a modern setting, start a company and become a business mogul, or, in an apocalypse story, become the Mother of Zombies, recruit followers, expand her territory, and become the strongest Mother of Zombies...

Jiang You diligently carries out her missions, but she can't shake the feeling that a pair of obsessive, resentful eyes are always fixed on her from behind.

Jiang You: I really didn't mean to get involved with her!

World 1: A true heiress focused on her career × a seemingly sweet but secretly cruel, gloomy fake heiress

In the original story, the fake heiress was vicious and jealous. But the fake heiress Jiang You met was wonderful in every way, aside from being a little aloof, and exceptionally beautiful, too.

Jiang You: So we spent years getting along like sisters. I have no idea why she turned evil after the male lead showed up, or why she said she'd break his legs if he ever saw me again.

World 2: Mother of Zombies in the apocalypse × an unfeeling research genius

Jiang You: Thanks for asking. I just transmigrated, and I'm on my way to being tied up and taken to a research facility.

After using her psychic powers to give the sexy researcher with black hair and red lips several vivid dreams, Jiang You finally found a chance to escape.

But on her first night in an abandoned hotel, the mattress beside her sank slightly. The researcher's cold fingertips slid across her cheek, and her lovely voice slithered into Jiang You's ear like a snake:

"Running away is a bad habit. I wish you'd be as obedient as you are in those dreams."

Jiang You: No! My back would break!

World 3: A bewitching female ghost × a prodigy of the mystic arts

Jiang You transmigrates to fifteen years before the ghost-hunting protagonist is supposed to destroy her, which happens to be the day the protagonist's family is massacred. Without a second thought, Jiang You saves the young protagonist. Good children should be taught properly from an early age, after all.

With a life debt between them, surely the protagonist won't kill her fifteen years later.

Fifteen years later, the protagonist has become the respected, noble head of the mystic world's enforcers. No one knows that a female ghost has always lived inside the talisman at her neck.

By day, the upright leader of the mystic world is a model of propriety. By night, she greedily breathes in the ghost's hair fragrance and gives herself to her again and again in the name of repaying her debt.

Jiang You: How is it fair that a righteous leader bullies a little ghost like me every night?

World 4: A prodigy of the immortal path × the holy maiden of the demonic Gu sect

She transmigrates into an unfinished story idea: "Before I die, I kiss my nemesis..."

Jiang You can't remember how she answered this popular fill-in-the-blank question back then, but this time she repeats the top-voted answer and tells her nemesis that she's in love with her.

Nemesis: I don't believe you. Prove it.

After Jiang You is abducted to the demonic sect's territory and proves it countless times to no avail, her nemesis unexpectedly arrives one day with a red wedding dress and says they should get married.

Jiang You: Wait, didn't you say you didn't believe me?

Nemesis: I still don't, but I recently found a pair of Heavenly-tier love Gu...

World 6: An interstellar healer × a humanoid war machine

Good news: She transmigrates into a cruel interstellar world as a member of a highly prestigious healer clan.

Bad news: All her siblings have healing abilities. She doesn't.

Jiang You should have been kicked out of the family, but was allowed to stay at the request of her twin sister, who has an SSS-level talent. She gets to live a luxurious life as a noble.

When her sister is about to become the designated healer for the so-called "war machine," she panics and runs away. To protect the family's interests, they send Jiang You in her place, since the two look exactly alike.

No one cares that she has no healing talent, because the "war machine" is always surrounded by a violent aura, and both of her previous designated healers died on the first day they met her.

Jiang You: I may not have healing powers, but I have special healing techniques.

The "war machine's" eyes, once filled with rage, gradually grow clear. Her beautiful sapphire-blue eyes fill with Jiang You's image.

In countless intimate moments, she wraps an arm around Jiang You's waist. Her sapphire eyes ripple like a lake, and her voice remains calm even as her words turn feverish:

"I need you to stay by my side forever. Forever..."

Theme: Make the most of the present and leave no regrets.
