The Villain Turns Over a New Leaf

[The full novel costs just over 1 yuan]

1.

Su Ke'er, an obscure comic artist, hit rock bottom in life and shut herself away at home, spending her days eating and drinking. Then she unexpectedly saved a mysterious man.

Lin Tianyou, the real power behind the Lin Group.

Her face burned. How had she mistaken a man in a perfectly tailored five-piece suit for a street thug?!

And then she'd asked him to repay her for saving his life by marrying her?

Oh, well. She'd just pretend to be blind and keep enjoying their ordinary life together.

Who could blame her for being so taken with his looks?

But later, she no longer dared to openly show him how much she wanted him.

By day, he wore a mask, but beneath it he was a wolf, bloodthirsty and savage.

She trembled.

Inner monologue: Is this domineering CEO always this shameless? His contract is up, and he still refuses to leave.

2.

He had never believed in the civilized world's idea of repaying kindness with kindness. Then he met a woman with even less shame than he had.

She said she was a person of high moral character and didn't need him to repay her kindness tenfold. All she wanted was for him to marry her.

She said they had been through life and death together, and while they didn't need to be sworn brothers, they should at least get to know each other as well as the back of their own hands.

She wanted him to marry her?!!!!

How could Lin Tianyou ever give in to a woman?

What? On his first day as a live-in son-in-law, she wanted him to jump over a brazier?

What? She wanted to buy his "contract of servitude" for 100,000 yuan?

What? She'd drawn him as the male lead in her comic and publicly humiliated him?

…

A few months later!

"Honey, don't kick me out! I'll even kneel on a washboard... sob, sob."

His only answer was the suit trousers he hadn't yet managed to put on.

Alluring male lead x drama queen heroine

Reader's guide:

1. Marriage first, love later. A short, angst-free story.

2. Both leads are each other's first.

The companion novel, "The CEO's Everyday Face-Slapping," is complete. Both leads make friendly appearances!

I recommend my friend Ye Mi's new novel, "The Money-Loving Beauty." I hear the whole thing is already written.

Upcoming novel: "A Good Match Is No Match for an Equal Partnership"

Zhang Nianxin owns a dozen apartments, runs a shabby bookstore with no customers, and occasionally posts videos where she never shows her face. One day, she's told she's the sole heir to the Zhang family's main branch. The condition for inheriting the estate is simple: she has to marry the aloof young master of the Ling family, a man who seems to have no human feelings.

She tells the modern-day "matchmaker" arranging the marriage, "Do I really seem like the kind of person who'd throw away my principles and self-respect for an inheritance?"

Then she turns around and marries into the Ling family.

Everyone assumes that Young Master Ling will divorce his family's chosen bride within three days. But after their wedding, he stays by his sweet little wife's side every day. He stops going to work and holding meetings, handing the title of China's number-one workaholic to his subordinate instead.

Zhang Nianxin: "What do you like about me?"

Young Master Ling immediately replies, "I like how shameless you are."

Zhang Nianxin: ...
