(Complete) Coming soon: My Cousin Is Soft and Knows How to Entice, please add it to your reading list.

After her divorce, Qi Zhao married Zhao Guannan, heir to the Marquis of Mubei. Rumor had it that she was a fox spirit who could bewitch any man.

His mother, the current princess royal, nodded in agreement when she heard this. "She is, and she's quite the accomplished one."

Thanks to Qi Zhao, her son, who'd been as unyielding as an iron tree, had finally blossomed. He would no longer disappear to the northern frontier for years at a time.

Little did she know that her monk-like son had been bewitched by this fox spirit for years, secretly longing for her all along.

That night, Zhao Guannan came home and found his wife staring into a bronze mirror. He stepped up behind her, drew her into his arms, and buried his face against her smooth, jade-like neck and shoulder. "Sister, what are you doing?"

"I heard that if you look into a mirror at night, your true form will appear. I was wondering what kind of spirit I might be."

The woman in the mirror smiled, her beauty lighting up the whole room.

"You're no spirit, Sister. You're a fairy who charms hearts and means to take my life," Zhao Guannan said reverently, then covered her rosy lips with his, eagerly devouring the life-saving elixir.

Coming soon: My Cousin Has Her Eye on Me, please add it to your reading list.

Jiang Pei'er was peerlessly beautiful, but as an orphan living with her aunt, she'd spent years treading carefully. Lately, however, she'd started provoking the household's cold and fearsome eldest young master.

Everyone thought she'd gone mad! The eldest young master was cruel and ruthless, and ever since he returned home injured from the battlefield last month, limping on one leg, his moods had become even more unpredictable.

They had no idea Jiang Pei'er had only gone mad because she didn't want her aunt to send her off as a concubine to the lecherous prefect!

If she had to become someone's concubine, she might as well pick someone handsome!

On a lonely night, Jiang Pei'er, her eyes stinging from chili oil, clung to Tan Xuanping's injured leg and wailed, pouring out her heartfelt "admiration" in a delicate voice.

"Elder Cousin, Pei'er sincerely wants to serve you."

"Serve me?"

The beautiful girl's clumsy seduction made Tan Xuanping, seated in his wheelchair, smile. He didn't call her out, though. "So, Pei'er, are you offering yourself to me?"

Remembering the two maids who'd tried to climb into his bed and been beaten to death, Jiang Pei'er shrank back, her whole body trembling. She wanted to retreat, but the prefect's leering face flashed through her mind.

Her watery eyes met his exquisitely handsome face, and she found her courage again. She steeled herself and clung tightly to his leg.

Tan Xuanping lowered his eyes to those reddened eyes. Tsk, she looked quite pretty when she cried. Those captivating eyes might be even more interesting crying somewhere else.
