My Husband Is Frail and Helpless

[This novel will be available to subscribe to on Wednesday, September 8, with three chapters dropping that day. Thank you for your support!]

Fosheng has always kept a secret, and it has tormented her for a long time: she is not really Prince You's consort.

Huo Tingyun's original fiancée was attacked by bandits on the way to marry him and tragically died. On that very day, Fosheng was being hunted. After barely escaping with her life, she hid inside the bridal sedan and was carried into Prince You's residence, where she became his consort.

Prince You, Huo Tingyun, was infamous for his ill luck. It was said that he had caused the deaths of three fiancées and was a sickly man. Fosheng only had to wait for him to breathe his last, then she could leave with her mission complete.

Huo Tingyun was nothing like the rumors claimed. He was gentle and considerate, and treated Fosheng very well.

That only made her feel more guilty.

When Huo Tingyun was attacked one day, Fosheng gritted her teeth and couldn't bring herself to abandon him.

Once he awoke, Fosheng intended to confess the truth and leave for good.

“I'm not your consort. Your consort is dead. I'm an impostor. I'm sorry.”

To her surprise, Huo Tingyun wasn't the least bit surprised. “I know. I was the one who had her killed.”

Fosheng: “Tha...” Thank you for taking care of me all this time...

Fosheng: “!”

Huo Tingyun said, “The night you returned to the residence badly wounded, I was the one who treated your injuries.”

Fosheng stared at him. “Didn't you say it was a maid...”

Huo Tingyun said, “I'll take responsibility for you.”

“For the rest of our lives.”

"Proud and Precious"

Chen Yan, the cousin of the Marquis of Pingnan's daughter, has lovely almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks. Unfortunately, she's a bit of a fool.

Chen Yan was betrothed to the heir of the Marquis of Pingnan from birth, but he disliked her. He schemed to have her lose her innocence, then used the situation to break off the engagement and drove her out of the marquis's residence.

The day Chen Yan was thrown out, a crowd gathered to watch. Pointing at her, the heir said, “You shameless thing, you got yourself pregnant by another man. When you give birth to that bastard...”

Amid the commotion, the Crown Prince's carriage stopped in front of the marquis's residence. His presence was imposing as he demanded, “Did the heir just call my child a bastard?”

Only then did Crown Prince Xie Yu turn to A Yan and scold her fiercely: “Come here. You were mistreated and didn't think to come to me? Do you think I'm dead?”

Chen Yan pouted, then burst into tears.

Xie Yu stiffened. The usually cold and ruthless Crown Prince personally carried her into his carriage and coaxed her in a gentle voice. “Don't cry. He bullied you, did he? I'll kill him.”

Only then did the woman in his arms tug at his collar and say, “You can't just kill people.”

The Crown Prince has a peculiar condition: he dislikes women and never lets them near him.

That is, until the day someone played a trick on him and locked him in with a woman. After that, he changed completely.

He saw that woman five days out of every ten. The Empress was overjoyed and hurried to ask the servants attending him, only to learn that her son... had been climbing over walls at night to visit someone.

The Empress was beside herself. When she asked further, she learned the woman was the fiancée of the Marquis of Pingnan's heir.

Stealing another man's fiancée... well, it wasn't out of the question. The Empress doted on her son and planned to ask the Emperor to issue an edict. But before she could, her son had already carried the woman home.

He was calling her darling and baby. He was nothing like his old self.
