I Came Down to Earth to Scare You

[Complete, dive in without worry]

[Next up: Pretending to Be Infatuated. Blurb below, please add it to your reading list]

Wen Yan secretly descended to the mortal realm. Once there, she had to learn the rules in order to get by, so she chose Lu Yanxing as her role model.

Lu Yanxing was not only handsome and alluringly abstinent, he had everything he could want and could command the wind and rain. Most importantly, his home had a luxurious two-meter-wide bed that was soft and comfortable to sleep in.

Wen Yan had to stay in the mortal realm for a full month before she could reveal her true form.

At a banquet.

Lu Yanxing was smoking on the terrace, the air hazy with blue smoke, when he spotted a pretty young girl standing in a corner.

The girl had bright eyes and pearly teeth, and smiled sweetly at him. She pinched the hem of her skirt, and with every turn, her outfit changed.

Lu Yan rubbed his eyes, hardly daring to believe what he was seeing.

His friend noticed him staring into space and waved a hand in front of his eyes. "What are you looking at?"

Lu Yanxing gestured toward where Wen Yan was standing. "Which family's daughter is that? I've never seen her before. She's pretty."

His friend stared at the empty space in front of them: ???

You should get your eyes checked!

When Lu Yanxing realized he was the only one who could see Wen Yan, he acted calm on the outside, but inside he was panicking like crazy.

Finally, he worked up the courage to speak to Wen Yan. "Could you stop following me? I'll recite sutras and help you pass on."

Wen Yan didn't quite understand what he meant. She only thought there couldn't be a better role model, so she shook her head. "Nope."

Lu Yanxing tried all sorts of ways to ward off evil and drive Wen Yan away.

Later.

The peachwood sword he hung outside his bedroom was picked up by Wen Yan, who waved it in front of him like a fascinating new toy.

Wen Yan put the broom he had left upside down back the right way, then scolded him with a stern little face for making extra work for the servants.

She thought the talisman he'd brought back from a master was ugly, crumpled it up, and threw it straight into the trash.

One day, Wen Yan angrily ripped the talisman off her forehead for the umpteenth time. "Why do you keep sticking weird things on me and picking on me?!"

Lu Yanxing completely lost it, fled in a panic, and hid at the Lu family home.

But why had the girl followed him back to the family home? And why did she keep squeezing into his arms when they went to bed at night?

The difference this time was that he could really feel the warmth of her in his arms.

Pretending to Be Infatuated: Blurb

[Clear-Eyed Realist vs. Aloof High-Flyer]

Her family is buried in debt, and her stepfather runs off, leaving Xun Sang behind as collateral for the creditors.

Unemployed, tricked by a talent scout, stalked, harassed by late-night knocks at the door, threatened and intimidated, Xun Sang cries until she has no tears left and nearly reaches the point of no return.

Just when she is out of options, Luo Yu appears before Xun Sang as a rich young master who spends money like water.

Xun Sang clenches her fists and grits her teeth. Him. I'll go with him!

Xun Sang is so beautiful you can't take your eyes off her, so Luo Yu lets her come home with him.

But he often sneers at her, because he thinks she offered herself to him and is therefore cheap.

In public, Xun Sang is docile and sweet, looking at Luo Yu as if he were the stars in the sky. In private, she secretly works hard to become a wealthy woman in her own right.

Two years later, Luo Yu falls for her and plans to propose.

When he gets home that night, he finds the house empty. The only things left on the table are a note and a bank card.

[All the money is here. The PIN is six zeroes. This includes the interest, plus an extra 300,000, calculated at 10,000 a month as rent. I earned it all by trading stocks with my own savings. I didn't take a single one of the bags or pieces of jewelry you gave me, either. You're pretty good in bed, so that takes care of the service fee. Thanks for taking me in for two years, Senior Luo. See you never!]

Luo Yu snaps the bank card in half, tears the note to pieces, and smashes everything in the house he can get his hands on.

After a month of searching, he finally tracks down Xun Sang.

By then, Xun Sang has just watched an opera at the Vienna State Opera. As she walks out, Luo Yu, his face dark with anger, blocks her path.

"Was Paris fun?"

Xun Sang is panicking inside, but perfectly calm on the outside. She nods. "It was fun."

"Was Prague fun?"

Xun Sang nods again.

"Was I fun?"

Xun Sang's mind goes blank. She doesn't understand what he's saying.

Just as she's about to nod again, Luo Yu lifts her chin. "Try nodding one more time."

Later.

A few rumors quietly circulate in their circle.

1. Luo Yu got married. His wife is Xun Sang.

2. Xun Sang doesn't care for Luo Yu, because he used to mock her and tell her not to get her hopes up.

3. Luo Yu forced her into marriage. He carried Xun Sang to the civil affairs bureau and made her fill out the marriage registration form.

Reader's Guide:

The male lead is foul-mouthed and not a very nice person at first. He genuinely looks down on the heroine and only wants her physically. The heroine has award-winning acting skills, pretending to smile at him every day and showering him with flattery and sweet words.
