Marrying into a Prestigious Family

At eighteen, Yan Ling came to the capital and secured a place in the He family with a marriage contract.

Yan Ling knew the He family had agreed to the match to avoid marrying their son to a princess. He Tingzhou himself had no feelings for her. But she didn't care, because she had her own reasons for coming to the He family and getting close to He Tingzhou.

At last, she got what she wanted and escaped the He family.

Unfortunately, she hadn't even made it out of the capital before she was caught and brought back. Someone chained her to the bed.

The chains clinked in the dark room.

He Tingzhou stroked her lips, his expressionless face at odds with his gentle, dangerous voice. "Yangyang, why couldn't you keep up the act for the rest of your life?"

Male protagonist's perspective:

At first, He Tingzhou agreed to the marriage because he thought she would be easy to control.

Only later did he realize that she controlled all his emotions.

One-on-one romance, primarily sweet

"The White Moonlight's Daily Survival Guide" is now available.

Su Zhenyue accidentally discovers that she is living in a novel about a man winning back his wife.

At the end of the story, the male lead wins back his love and kills the white moonlight after she turns evil.

Su Zhenyue isn't the heroine. She's the white moonlight who gets killed.

To change her tragic fate, she decides to find a husband within three months, marry as soon as possible, and stay out of all the drama. So she sets her sights on her distant cousin, Shen Ji.

She knows that before long, Shen Ji will place first in the imperial exams and become famous throughout the land. Then, for certain reasons, he will leave the capital, making him practically the perfect husband for her. But she never expected Shen Ji to be so hard to win over. No matter how she flirts with him, he remains unmoved.

When that approach goes nowhere, Su Zhenyue promptly changes targets.

One afternoon, after asking her fourth cousin for advice on painting and calligraphy, Shen Ji corners her beside a rock garden.

The young genius gives her a dangerous look. "Cousin, is this what you call being devoted to me?"

Male protagonist's perspective:

Shen Ji had assumed that his cousin from the Su family loved him deeply, which was why she went to such lengths to get close to him.

He thought that, in return for her deep affection, he might ask their elders to arrange a betrothal once the period of mourning for the late emperor was over.

He never imagined he would discover that she had another reason for being so friendly.

Shen Ji had always been self-assured. After much thought, he decided to give her the cold shoulder for a while. Who could have guessed that she would turn around and flirt with someone else, using the very same tricks she had used on him?

Shen Ji: ???
