The Maid Is Actually a Cross-Dressing Boy Who Knows How to Reel Them In

[I'm very sorry, everyone. I tried writing several endings, but they all felt jarringly disconnected, and I can't keep updating. I'll discuss taking this novel off the paid platform with my editor. I'm truly sorry. Maybe someday I'll come back and finish this story.]

Song Fei is a member of the demonic sect. At a young age, he reached the pinnacle of the martial world. His martial arts are so formidable that he can stand on the surface of a lake without relying on anything, face his own reflection as an opponent, and stand unrivaled beneath the heavens. Those who have seen him also say he is the most beautiful person alive.

Few know that his martial arts can only be practiced by male virgins. To avoid trouble, Song Fei usually presents himself as a woman in skirts and makeup.

Unexpectedly, one day he woke up having lost both his virtue and his internal energy.

The culprit had already made a clean getaway.

His friend Qiu Shaoyou, a renowned doctor, examined his pulse and suggested, "This art is quite sinister. Your internal energy was probably just stolen by the other person. You can simply steal it back."

Song Fei blinked. "How?"

"Take it back the same way you lost it!" Qiu Shaoyou said anxiously. "With your looks, use every trick in the book to seduce her. I refuse to believe she won't take the bait!"

Song Fei agreed.

He found the culprit, Lin Yanqiong, and became her servant, attending to her every need. He kept her accounts and helped her get dressed. When her family introduced her to a poor scholar, Song Fei even personally chased the man away.

After she discovered he was a man, Song Fei dropped hints time and again, striking seductive poses.

Unfortunately, Lin Yanqiong seemed unmoved.

.

Lin Yanqiong had been away from home for eighteen years before her father, the wealthiest man in the land, found her and brought her back. To take over the family business, she hired a group of maids to help her.

One of them was a breathtakingly beautiful young person with striking features, who was obedient and sensible, until Lin Yanqiong discovered that this pretty young servant was actually a man.

Well, a man was fine, as long as he could work.

But this servant named Song Fei kept showing her his collarbone one day, then baring his chest the next. His eyes sparkled, and his alluring foxlike gaze seemed to flirt with her.

Lin Yanqiong was very nervous.

She was plain-looking. Why was this young man acting like this? Could he have ulterior motives and want to take the money she had?

So she pushed away the red-robed youth leaning against her. "Please behave more properly!"

Song Fei bit his lip and agreed.

The next day, he changed into a respectable outfit and continued to seduce her with a dignified air.

Lin Yanqiong: ...

A guide to reading:

1. Still has that old-school flavor. The pairing is a bewitching, foxlike, red-robed demonic sect male lead and a forthright, big-eating, money-loving female lead.

The male lead is constantly seducing the female lead. He may well have Stockholm syndrome, and he falls for her first.

2. Sweet romance, mostly everyday life. Weibo: @LateStageInsomnia

"No One Said He Was Into That, Either":

Fang Han transmigrates into a book. The System tells her that if she can't win over the story's villain, Xu Jie, she'll be trapped in the book's world forever.

Fang Han thinks of her cramped, stifling cubicle and dreary rented apartment in the real world, then looks at the beautiful mountains, clear rivers, birdsong, and fragrant flowers before her. She thinks, Is there really such a good deal? Whoever wants to win him over can do it. Even if she dies, she'll die here.

The future demonic lord, a villain who will kill without batting an eye, is currently a respected martial uncle in an immortal sect. He's as flawless as fine jade, exceptionally graceful, gentle-tempered, and admired by many.

To make him hate her, Fang Han viciously mocks and insults him, and even attacks him.

She thinks she can lie flat now.

Unexpectedly, in the dead of night, Xu Jie knocks on her window.

Standing outside, his elegant, striking face flushed an eerie red, he asks, "Could you... hit me and scold me again?"

Fang Han freezes. Xu Jie thinks she doesn't want to, and pleads pitifully, "Please."

Xu Jie calculated that a woman would deliberately approach him and bring him calamity, so he always pretended to be kind and pure, warm on the outside and cold within.

Then Fang Han appeared. She treated him as though he didn't exist, and when she occasionally looked at him, it was as if she were looking at garbage. She ground him into the dirt, stepped on him, and slapped him.

She really despised him.

He loved it.

Night after night, he savored every scornful, vicious, disgusted expression she made, and relished her harsh, grating insults.

He thought, I can't live without Fang Han.

Note: The male lead has issues. The female lead is deeply world-weary and has no empathy. When she attacks the male lead, she really is attacking him. There's no reason or tragic backstory.

Theme: True love must be met with sincerity, and people should treat one another honestly.
