[New novel: Marrying My Ex's Older Brother by Contract. Visit my author page to check it out. Please add it to your reading list~~]
Song Nian's parents died when she was young, and her older brother spoiled her as she grew up. Then the family business ran into trouble overnight and teetered on the brink of bankruptcy.
Watching her brother run himself ragged with worry, Song Nian spent a sleepless night and decided to enter an arranged marriage.
She drew up a list, with the powerful Cheng Jie right at the top.
When Cheng Jie was younger, he was playing a game with friends when someone asked what kind of person he liked. He answered casually, "Pretty and well-behaved."
Song Nian thought, That's me, isn't it? So she made her move.
She changed into a flowing, ethereal dress, gathered her courage, and stopped Cheng Jie outside his company.
"Hello, I'm Song Nian." Nervously, Song Nian clutched the edge of her dress. "I'm pretty and well-behaved."
"Would you like to form a marriage alliance with me?"
Cheng Jie: "I don't believe in marriage."
Song Nian, obediently: "That's okay. You can change your mind."
Cheng Jie: "..."
-
A renowned beauty in City B, Song Nian had fair skin, lovely features, and a slender waist. Plenty of people coveted her.
When they heard the Song family was in trouble, a whole crowd started eyeing her hungrily.
At a fashionable gala, a former rival deliberately invited Song Nian, eager to see her humiliated. Instead, in a corner of the venue, she saw Song Nian standing beside Cheng Jie, head of the Cheng family and a man feared throughout City B. Looking pitiful, Song Nian rose onto her toes. "My shoes are rubbing."
Cheng Jie patiently asked, "Should I carry you in?"
"No, I'd lose too much face."
Her nemesis: "..."
What exactly do you think having face means?
-
Much later, Song Nian suddenly remembered her first meeting with Cheng Jie outside his company. Deliberately shuffling over in her slippers, she hooked an arm around his neck and teased him. "Mr. Cheng, the man who doesn't believe in marriage. Doesn't that make you a hypocrite?"
"You misheard me." Cheng Jie lifted her into his arms without changing expression. "I said I don't believe in breaking up. I'm faithful to my partner and would never leave them."
What did being against marriage have to do with Cheng Jie being against breaking up? He wasn't against marriage. He wasn't.
Song Nian: "..."
Pure romance, happy ending.

The Le and Jiang families had been close for generations. Le Yan and Jiang Qi grew up together, and their families arranged their engagement when they were still young.
But just before their formal engagement banquet, Jiang Qi suddenly found true love and wanted to call off the engagement.

Not long afterward, news came that the engagement banquet for the Jiang and Le families would go ahead as planned.
On the day of the banquet, under the many different gazes of the guests, Le Yan smiled brightly and took the arm of Jiang Chen, the Jiang family's eldest son. "Let me introduce my fiance, Jiang Chen."

When he returned to the Jiang family home, he saw Le Yan getting out of a car with her arm linked through his older brother's.

Jiang Qi: ?
He suddenly realized that his older brother had been pulling strings behind every step of his broken engagement.
Bonus scene:
After Jiang Chen got engaged, a friend complained on his behalf. "Your half-brother caused all that trouble, and somehow your marriage had to be sacrificed to clean up the mess."
Then he grumbled, "I heard Miss Le spent 150 million last night on a diamond necklace just because it went with her dress. The Le family really spares no expense on her."
The handsome, refined man slowly looked up and corrected him. "I bought the necklace... And yes, it does go well with her dress."
He added, "Keep an eye out for other colored diamonds. She has so many outfits, it'd be good to have a few more on hand."
His friend: ?
A scheming, refined young master from a powerful family VS a dazzling socialite
The heroine falls in love after marriage; the hero's secret crush comes true.
Pure romance, happy ending.
[Please add my upcoming novel to your reading list: The Foolish Beauty Becomes a Villainess]
Lin Youyou had been as cute as a little jade doll since childhood. Unfortunately, she was a little slow on the uptake, spoke at a leisurely pace, and had a soft, gentle personality. Luckily, her family was well-off, so no one dared bully her.
Then, at her coming-of-age party, she accidentally transmigrated into a book and became the villainess with the same name in a wealthy-family novel. The original Lin Youyou had done every kind of wicked deed and met a miserable end.
Worse, she had to follow the plot properly or be erased.
Lin Youyou thought for a long time, then asked softly, "Erased... will it hurt?"
System, with the fond expression of a loving mother: How could anyone treat the Host like this? She's so cute and adorable. I... I'll spoil her rotten!
_
At the coming-of-age party.
According to the plot, Lin Youyou was supposed to dance with the male lead, her childhood friend. But he brought the heroine instead, publicly humiliating Lin Youyou.
System: "You need to walk over, slap the male lead, and splash red wine in the heroine's face."
Lin Youyou had never picked a fight with anyone. She bit her lip and hesitated.
The System immediately felt bad for her. "You don't have to do it yourself. You can get someone else to do it."
Holding a glass of red wine, Lin Youyou casually stopped a handsome waiter and politely asked, "Could you do me a favor?"
"I'd like you to slap someone and splash a glass of red wine on them."
"I'll pay you."
The handsome waiter looked up and gazed at her for a long moment. "All right."
The waiter completed the job swiftly. The male lead got angry and tried to fight back, but the other man subdued him with a single hold.
In the piano room, the second male lead and the heroine played a piano duet.
System: "That's your piano. You need to go over there, scold them, and kick them out."
Lin Youyou glanced at her slender wrists. Just then, she saw the waiter she'd hired before walking by and hurriedly called out to him. "Hello, are you still taking side jobs?"
He turned around.
Lin Youyou: "I'd like you to help me yell at someone and kick them out."
"I'll pay you."
"All right."
With someone to help her, Lin Youyou's tasks went more and more smoothly. Soon, it was time for the bankruptcy plotline.
System: "You need to stop the male lead at the banquet and ask him for help. He'll... slap you."
"It's okay, sweetheart..." the System said, feeling for her. "Once you've completed the plot, I'll give you a big bonus, so you'll still have money."
Lin Youyou gathered her courage. "All right."
She followed the System's instructions and went to stop him. When he turned around, she saw a handsome face. It was the same handsome waiter who had helped her with several tasks before.
He glanced at the documents in her hands, took them, and passed them to his secretary. Then he comfortingly patted her head. "Don't worry. I'm here."
"Are you hungry? Want something to eat?"
In a daze, Lin Youyou let him feed her, then in another daze, let him take her back. Suddenly remembering the interrupted task, she asked the System, "The task..."
"Forget the task for now." The System trembled. "The male lead's gone bankrupt."
Lin Youyou: ?
"Sweetheart, run! We transmigrated into the wrong book. The main villain has been reborn."
Lin Youyou thought it over for a while, then slowly asked, "Do I have a grudge against him?"
"No."
Lin Youyou let out a long breath. "That's great."
Then the System watched as its innocent, gullible sweetheart took the initiative to go over and cling to the main villain.
If he could bankrupt the male lead and help her complete every task, surely helping her wouldn't be a problem, right?
System: ==
How could there be no problem? He's the biggest problem of all!
A ruthless big shot with many secret identities VS a beautiful, adorable sweetheart
