The Obsessive Crown Prince's Cinnabar Mole

Story blurb:

The Crown Prince of the Jin Dynasty had once been a moon-bright, jade-like young man, gentle and refined as an immortal. After a high fever, his personality changed completely. He became ruthless and decisive, yet was also a brilliant scholar and strategist who knew how to govern. He was the heaven-blessed pride of the court, adored and feared by its officials.

The capital’s third-rank Prefect of the Capital had an unloved legitimate youngest daughter. Her mother died when she was young, and on the night she was brought back from the family estate, the Crown Prince broke into her chambers. His voice was low and hoarse. “This time, I won’t let you go...”

Later, an imperial edict announced that the Crown Prince would marry her. In the bridal chamber, the beautiful young woman was nervous and timid, as if facing a great enemy. The door creaked open, and a man’s low laugh came from behind her. “Are you nervous?”

The maids behind her were startled. When had the usually ruthless, sinister Crown Prince ever spoken so gently?

The people of the Eastern Palace soon discovered that the Crown Prince, normally cold and indifferent toward women, seemed like a completely different person in front of his sweet and delicate Crown Princess.

But only she knew that he treated her well simply because he mistook her for someone else.

Later, she remembered, too. In their previous life, she and he had been entangled in a relationship full of distance and misunderstanding. It turned out that she was the cinnabar mole in his heart.

In this life and the last, she had always been the cinnabar mole in his heart. He could never forget her, so he had searched for her and would protect her by his side for the rest of their lives.

☆Next up: The Chief Minister’s Parasitic Vine

A lowborn cousin came to live at the Marquis of Anyang’s estate. She was beautiful as a hibiscus, graceful and slender, and as delicate and obedient as a parasitic vine, inspiring everyone’s pity. Before long, she won the heart of the heir to the marquisate.

A cousin from some backwater town, trying to climb the family tree, dared to covet the position of future mistress of the marquisate? How shameless!

Before long, Awan became the target of everyone’s scorn through no fault of her own.

The heir claimed he would marry no one but her, then turned around and got engaged to another woman. Just as everyone was waiting to see her humiliated, the Chief Minister, a powerful man at court known for his ruthless methods, personally came to ask for her hand in marriage!

Everyone was stunned!

Awan was stunned, too!

Chu Chen had been having vivid dreams lately, full of scenes too steamy to describe. It was only after he met Awan that he realized the woman in his dreams was her.

Along with the dreams came frequent heart attacks and difficulty breathing. Then, one day, he took Awan’s hand and was astonished to find that the symptoms suddenly disappeared.

It couldn’t be a coincidence.

Later, Chu Chen remembered that in his previous life, Awan had been a canary he kept. But he hadn’t known that she was no fragile parasitic vine. She could also choose the most decisive way to leave him.

Chu Chen’s heart had twisted with pain, but it was too late.

If there were another life, he would cherish her in the palm of his hand and never let her be hurt or cry. Otherwise, he would suffer the torment of heart disease.

In this life, Awan was both his poison and his cure.

[Little scene:]

Awan’s eyes reddened, soon turning wet with tears. They looked ready to spill at any moment.

Chu Chen frowned at once, his voice instinctively turning threatening. “Don’t cry!”

Awan froze, forcing back her tears, overwhelmed with hurt.

Chu Chen sighed inwardly, pulled her into his arms, and spoke gently to soothe her. “It’s all right. If you want to cry, cry in your husband’s arms.”

1. In his previous life, the male lead took Awan by force, held himself above her, and didn’t know how to cherish her. He’s a little scummy, but he’s learned his lesson. (If this bothers you, read with caution.)

2. Awan has terrible luck with men, except for the male lead (not counting his previous life).

3. As is customary, 1v1, both leads are sexually inexperienced.
