The emperor's youngest brother, Liu Yue, went to war at thirteen and campaigned in the southern territories at seventeen. When he returned to the capital, he became the famed Prince Jing.

Prince Jing has a secret he has never shared: he once spent a night of passion with a woman he didn't know.

He can't remember her face. All he remembers is the cinnabar mole on her back.

Even after ascending the throne and becoming the most powerful man in the land, he still can't forget that reckless dream beneath the lotus-patterned curtains.

Reborn into a new life, he returns to that night. His beloved is at his side, fast asleep, and he spots the cinnabar mole on her back at once.

He parts her dark hair, sees her face, and remembers her forever.

Both reborn, one-on-one romance, both virgins.

A very loose historical setting, with countless original details.

Upcoming contemporary romance: "Hard to Hide"

Blurb:

I first met Jiang Wan on a chilly, rainy day.

The girl stood by the swimming pool, her slender silhouette seeming fragile and delicate in the cool evening breeze.

A coat was draped over her shoulders, carrying a faint, fresh woody fragrance.

Jiang Wan turned around and looked straight into a pair of deep-set eyes.

Her heart, long since sunk to the bottom, began to beat again.

Yun Ze was tall and slender. He looked at her with slightly lowered eyes, a gentle smile on his lips. "It's cold out. Keep warm."

Yun Ze learned from his parents that Jiang Wan's parents had died in a car accident, and she would be living with them from now on.

"Make sure you look after her. Treat her like your little sister," his mother instructed.

Yun Ze said nothing, but his gaze kept drifting to the quiet girl.

Before long, Jiang Wan transferred to Yun Ze's school.

She was quiet and well-behaved, yet had a face that turned heads wherever she went. Her arrival on campus caused quite a stir.

A friend who had a crush on Jiang Wan learned she was living at Yun Ze's house and asked him to put in a good word.

Without a moment's hesitation, Yun Ze said, "No."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm her brother."

Jiang Wan, waiting to walk home from school with him, heard those words and felt her budding hopes sink to the bottom.

*

One day, years later, Yun Ze ran into Jiang Wan and one of her admirers at a shopping mall.

Seeing Yun Ze's stormy expression, the admirer asked Jiang Wan awkwardly, "Who's this?"

"My brother," Jiang Wan answered without hesitation.

Not long after, Yun Ze cornered Jiang Wan in a stairwell.

Outside the door, her admirer was looking for her.

His eyes were bloodshot, but he still kept his voice low and controlled. "Jiang Wan, tell him I'm not your brother."

Upcoming: "Summer Intrusion"

Blurb:

The first time Yun Xia was alone with Wen Heng was the day her grandfather died. Her brother, Yun Ze, was busy with the funeral and couldn't get away, so he asked a friend to pick his sister up from school.

The fifteen-year-old boy had his right hand in his pocket and a cigarette between his lips. He leaned lazily against the school gate, unruly and arrogant, the kind of boy even little kids would steer clear of.

Yun Xia was no exception.

"Xiaxia, your brother asked me to take you home," the boy said with a roguish grin, looking at the frightened girl who wanted to run away.

The second time Yun Xia was alone with Wen Heng was many years later, at her engagement party.

Friends and family offered their congratulations one by one. Only he stood far from the crowd, his gaze fixed on the girl in the middle of it all, smiling and chatting. An unreadable light gleamed in his narrow eyes in the darkness.

Her fiance went to the restroom and didn't come back. Yun Xia went to look for him, but Wen Heng suddenly pulled her into the stairwell. The scent of red wine clung to him, and she was so close that it made her head swim.

The third time Yun Xia was alone with Wen Heng was the day news of her fiance's affair spread everywhere.

The most prominent trending photo showed her fiance kissing someone in the hotel hallway on the day of their engagement party.

When Wen Heng found Yun Xia, she was sitting all alone on the stone steps. The cool rain dripped from the edge of his black umbrella. He looked down into her eyes. "Xiaxia, I'll take you home."

The male lead is seven years older. He has a secret crush that comes true; she starts out engaged and falls in love afterward.

Theme: Cherish the present and look forward to the future.
