Pre-release: Bewitching You
Blurb
A beautiful woman who's cold-hearted and slow to fall in love vs. a devoted young lord who's sweet on the outside and calculating within
En Shu's family falls into ruin, and she's sold to Chunlan House to become a courtesan. She even earns the title of Jinling's most beautiful woman. But beauty is not her ambition. She wants only to return to the capital and become a nobleman's wife. At last, she gets her chance when she meets a young lord from the capital.
One day, after she finishes dancing, her slender waist and graceful figure glistening with sweat, she lifts her bewitching eyes and hooks a finger into the sash at the young lord's waist. Her breath is sweet as orchids. "My lord, am I beautiful?"
On a day of torrential rain, the beauty dances beneath the downpour, her snow-white feet seeming to tread upon his heart. Enchanted by her charm, Cen Yun finally gives in to her scheme. He brings her back to the capital and keeps her as his mistress, even though he knows she's planned it all.
"You're mine. You may show all your charms and use every trick you have on me, and me alone."
A little scene
At their first meeting, En Shu accidentally wanders into Cen Yun's room. He mercilessly throws her into cold water and tells her to get out, true to his reputation for avoiding women.
Later, everyone in the capital knows that the young lord who avoids women is hiding a beauty in his home, keeping her in a gilded cage and kissing her brow every night as he calls her "sweetheart."
He doesn't believe in Buddha, and sneers at those who worship, thinking it absurd to rely on something so nebulous.
But no one knows that after she dies, when he has nowhere else to turn, he goes alone to the temple said to grant miracles, making three prostrations at each step. The temple is a full eighty miles from the capital.
That day, snow blankets the sky and twilight darkens the world. He kneels before Buddha like a stone statue for a long time, frost and snow gathering on his shoulders. His lashes tremble as he gazes at the Buddha with lowered eyes. "I, Cen Yun, believe. I would give up half my life if I could only have a chance with her in the next. May Buddha grant my wish."
Content warnings
One couple, both virgins
Fake suspense, don't overanalyze
Theme: No matter how harsh their circumstances, ordinary people must keep striving.
I hate it when this happens. It's okay if a man likes you. Isn't this just a scheming bitch? What's wrong with not liking this?
To be honest, the second male lead is quite affectionate. How can I describe the character of the male protagonist? There is a huge difference in status between him and the female protagonist. He does love her deeply, but he always feels that there is something missing between them.
The name Li Eun-shu is so funny, it seems like a Korean name
Jiang is actually quite pitiful.
Come on(???_??)?
In ancient novels, most of the most beautiful female protagonists I read recently are stupid, weak, and weak. In comparison, I would rather the female protagonist has the scheming to change the adversity. Collection
Dog man, you will pay the price??
Why does Jiang Muzhi want to marry the heroine? I don't think he likes it very much'-'
Doesn't this one use v? Waiting for fattening^o^
The more you write, the better. Come on!!!
