A Fleeting Longing

The Empress Is Trying to Get Herself Killed Every Day. Please add it to your collection! Blurb below.

Chen Miaomiao was sold to a brothel. The day it happened, she refused to submit and was brutally tortured to death.

After being reborn, she decisively chose to give in.

Not only did she put her name on the brothel's roster herself, she also became the madam's most obedient little darling and favorite.

But even the most innocent and obedient girl can't resist the advances of a handsome young physician.

In the end, he swept her off her feet, and she wound up pregnant.

But men are all liars. His intentions were impure, and he was hiding a whole web of schemes.

Chen Miaomiao was just about to flee with her baby when disaster struck.

Several years later, Chen Miaomiao was attending a banquet when a little dumpling ambushed her, lassoed her with a rope, and dragged her away.

As the little dumpling went, he shouted for his father: "Look, Daddy! Mother's ghost is back! I caught her, so now she won't run away!"

Chen Miaomiao, utterly bewildered: "..."

The dumpling's father, eyes brimming with tears, immediately carried her off. Raising that dumpling wasn't for nothing!

Chen Miaomiao, nearly dying of rage: "You lot are a family of bandits!"

Reader's Guide: The heroine and hero have only ever been with each other. The heroine starts out as a courtesan who has not yet received clients, but later leaves the brothel. There is a little angst, followed by a groveling arc. Happy ending.

Theme: Life is more important than anything.
