After We Swapped Emotions, the Crown Prince Started Fawning over Me

As the Crown Princess, Wen Tingwan was the laughingstock of the palace.

Everyone said the Wen family's daughter was madly in love with the Crown Prince. She had traded a priceless painting to become his Crown Princess and done all sorts of foolish things to win his favor, yet she never earned his affection.

But one day, after falling into the water and waking up, Wen Tingwan suddenly realized she no longer loved the Crown Prince.

Looking back, her once lovesick, self-effacing behavior seemed so ridiculous.

So what if the Crown Prince wouldn't even look her in the eye? So what if he never summoned her to his bed?

Gardening, admiring the moon, and drinking tea were much more enjoyable!

One day, after falling into the water and waking up, Crown Prince Jing Zhan realized he couldn't get the woman named Wen Tingwan out of his head.

He had hated her with all his heart, so why did every smile and frown of hers now seem so charming and adorable?

Well, he could spoil her a little.

But why had this woman suddenly started avoiding him like the plague and playing hard to get?

One day, the Crown Prince finally said, "I have not summoned the Crown Princess for a long time, and she must be feeling lonely and resentful. Let her attend me tonight."

A short while later, a nervous palace servant reported, "The Crown Princess says she is feeling unwell today and should not attend you tonight."

The Crown Prince stormed to the Crown Princess's chambers and seized Wen Tingwan's hand.

"My beloved, where are you feeling unwell? Shall I call a physician?"

Wen Tingwan: ...Call one for what? Call one to make you leave!

A few months later, Wen Tingwan and Jing Zhan accidentally fell victim to a spell that swapped their feelings.

Jing Zhan discovered that he still couldn't stop thinking about Wen Tingwan.

He waited for her to cling to him like she used to.

But all he got was Wen Tingwan calmly and resignedly saying, "Your Highness, rest assured. I will never bother you again."

For the first time, Jing Zhan felt panic. He summoned the old Daoist who had cast the spell in the middle of the night, suspecting that the man had tampered with it.

"The spell that switched your feelings has indeed been lifted. But if everything is still the same as before..." The old Daoist stroked his long beard and hesitated. "Then perhaps the Crown Princess truly doesn't love you anymore."

A few days later, a palace servant saw the Crown Prince pinning the Crown Princess against a wall, barely holding back his anger.

The next moment, he pleaded pitifully, "Wen Tingwan, what must I do for you to forgive me?"

Reader's guide:

1. One-on-one romance, both leads are virgins, happy ending, with a full-on groveling pursuit throughout.

2. At first, the Crown Prince is controlled by the spell, but he's still a jerk. Later, he genuinely falls for the heroine.

3. The feelings are swapped, not personalities, intelligence, or memories, and only their feelings for each other are affected.

[Charming, timid little concubine vs. obsessive, violent emperor]

Yan Yuan, an illegitimate daughter of the Yan family, was set up by her stepmother and sent to the imperial palace in a small sedan chair in place of her elder sister. Everyone knew the current emperor was a tyrant who could kill without batting an eye.

On her first night in the palace, she drank poisoned tea, vomited blood, and passed out. When she woke up, she had somehow become the little cat from the Western Regions, a tribute to the emperor.

Yan Yuan lived in terror, spending her days as a cat and her nights as a human. But then she happened upon the tyrant, who had been poisoned with an aphrodisiac and was in mortal danger.

She kindly saved him, only to be devoured in return.

The next morning, as the tyrant flew into a rage and ordered a massive search throughout the palace for the woman from the bamboo grove the night before, Yan Yuan was licking her fur as she lay on the desk in the imperial study. She gazed at the cold, chaste man and remembered how he had tormented her all night. She silently cursed, "Beast."

The tyrant had two recent worries.

One was the cat in his study that seemed to have become a spirit. The other was the woman from the bamboo grove, whose charms had left him craving more.

Later, just as he finally discovered a ridiculous and absurd truth, he caught that damned woman trying to run off with the cat.

*

The whole country knew the tyrant had become increasingly tyrannical of late. He kept his distance from women, never summoned his consorts, and spent all day holding a little snow-white cat.

He took it to court, whipped and executed servants who annoyed it, and gave it rare treasures from the imperial treasury, even the empress's ceremonial seal, to play with.

No one knew that in the dead of night, within the Hualu Palace, red silk curtains swayed as a jade-white foot slipped out from beneath them, a golden ankle shackle jingling around it.

The tyrant's eyes were dark with desire. He pressed a large hand against her slender neck and chuckled. "Are you going to run away again?"

Yan Yuan was drenched in sweat, panting softly through her tears.

"I won't dare again..."

Reader's guide:

1. In the early part of the story, the heroine's soul inhabits a cat's body. She is a cat by day and a human by night, but later her soul returns to her body for good.

2. One-on-one romance, both leads are virgins. The tyrant is possessive and genuinely unhinged. The harem is empty.

3. A fluffy, brainless sweet romance.

Core theme: Women should always think independently and strive to make themselves stronger.
