Roses and Stethoscopes

[Anti-Piracy Threshold: 70%. My upcoming novels, Winter Is Pleasant, Year After Year, Pines and Yew, and Little Red Bean, are open for wishlisting!]

Mo Sui met Jiang Cha at the memorial service for his father, who had died in the line of duty. She was his father's apprentice.

He once thought he would never have anything to do with his father's profession, but he still couldn't help falling for her.

Because of her master's dying wish, Jiang Cha indulged his son, Mo Sui, time and again.

She never expected that giving in would only make him push his luck, until she ended up giving herself to him as well.

Late one night, Jiang Cha was injured while pursuing a suspect and taken to the nearest hospital.

The one who treated her wound was Mo Sui, called in to consult in the emergency department.

He worked deftly, but the pain made her see stars. "Are you this rough with all your patients?"

He set down the needle holder and glanced sideways at her with a faintly mocking look. "My patients are the nation's tender young shoots, so of course they need gentle care. As for you..."

His tone shifted, turning meaningful. "Officer Jiang, you can throw me over your shoulder just like that. Surely your pain tolerance isn't so poor?"

Jiang Cha: "..." I think you're taking a jab at me.

"My world is often overcast, until the little sun that belongs to me alone finally arrives." - Mo Sui

Winter Is Pleasant

Blurb:

Everyone in Rongcheng's upper circles knows the Pei and Wen families have always kept their distance. But with new heads taking the reins of both families, their relationship is entering a new chapter.

The start of their reconciliation and joint pursuit of prosperity takes the form of a marriage alliance.

Wen Jianchen, an emergency physician and the youngest son of the Wen family;

Pei Dongyi, a kindergarten teacher and the youngest daughter of the Pei family.

One is so devoted to work that he has no time to date, while the other takes life as it comes and has no expectations of love. They have little in common, but share one understanding: they must preserve the good relations between their families.

After marriage, their lives are like frogs in slowly heating water: they spend little time together, and their only shared hobby is gossiping about other people.

Until one day, the gossip turns out to be about them.

The entertainment company jointly owned by the Pei and Wen families has recently planned a variety show. To attract viewers (and save money), Wen Jianchen and Pei Dongyi are thrown in as guests, with the personas of "top-tier rich second-generation heirs." But then...

Viewers: "Are you sure these are top-tier rich heirs and not overworked wage slaves???"
