The Apple of My Eye

Coming Soon: She Is Like My Mother Blurb: Thank you for your support all this time, and please continue supporting me in the future! Su Yuwei is the most beautiful daughter born to a concubine in the Su family. With her almond-shaped eyes, peach-blossom cheeks, slender waist, and fair skin, she and He Ruowei, the third son of the He family, are deeply in love and about to marry. But after meeting Prince Yi, Su Yuwei began to feel that her marriage to He Ruowei was in serious danger. Prince Yi is He Ruowei's superior. Before meeting him, Su Yuwei had heard He Ruowei say many good things about him. Yet the way this man looked at her made her deeply uneasy. He tried every means to invite her to Prince Yi's residence and sent her gifts, but Su Yuwei refused on the spot. But then the bastard went behind her back and had He Ruowei give her a jade bracelet. He Ruowei knew nothing about it and cheerfully treated the bracelet as a token of their love. Later, Su Yuwei wore clothes made from fabric Prince Yi had given her, and the jade bracelet he had sent, to meet He Ruowei. In the end, Prince Yi even held her in his arms... * In his previous life, Zhou Yi devoted his whole life to the imperial family, only to be betrayed in the end. All that splendor turned out to be nothing but an illusion. While fleeing, he was saved by a disfigured young woman. She was optimistic, kindhearted, and gentle. Zhou Yi fell in love with her. Later, she died. Reborn, he searched everywhere for her. When he finally found her, she was already engaged. She is his wife. Even if she is now his subordinate's fiancee, even if he must resort to unscrupulous means, he will never give her up. * Su Yuwei's marriage was switched, making her the laughingstock of the capital. She wept as if her heart would break. The bastard could barely suppress his smile. "Stop crying. I'll marry you." In a fit of anger, Su Yuwei married Prince Yi. Later, she learned about the underhanded things the bastard had done and slammed the door shut. The mighty Prince Yi, so imposing by day, came home and knelt on a washboard. "My lady, I was wrong." Coming Soon: Zhuang Min'er is the most beautiful maid in the Duke of Cheng's household. With her slender waist and tender, smooth skin, men always take a second look at her, yet despite her beauty, none of them dare lay a hand on her. The reason is that she looks remarkably like the late Marchioness. The heir, Cheng, keeps her in the study to serve him solely so he can remember his deceased mother. Cheng Anling, heir to the Duke of An's household, is peerlessly handsome. Clad in a plain white robe, he has a cool, noble bearing and deep, aloof black eyes. After three years of quiet companionship, Zhuang Min'er gradually developed feelings for this man, who had never harbored improper thoughts about her. * Three years later, the current Marchioness plans to sell Zhuang Min'er to an old man as a concubine. Zhuang Min'er thinks that if she has to become a concubine anyway, she might as well choose someone she knows well. So she sets her sights on Cheng Anling and tries everything she can to seduce him. She dances before Cheng Anling in gauzy clothes, her appearance alluring. His eyes remain clear and calm, utterly unmoved. After trying several times, Zhuang Min'er understands that because she looks like his mother, he will never fall for her. She puts aside the feelings she should not have and casts her net far and wide, hoping to catch whatever fish she can. She copies a poem over several pages and gives a page to every man she takes a fancy to. She gathers gingko leaves, dries them, and gives one to each man. Holding a gingko leaf, Cheng Anling begins to feel strangely unsettled. * After a hazy night together, Zhuang Min'er gets what she wanted. Before she can even celebrate, Cheng Anling confronts her furiously, holding two gingko leaves and copies of the poem. "Just how many men have you been flirting with?" That night, in the torrential rain, she is driven out of the courtyard. * A few days later, the old Marquis announces that he will take Zhuang Min'er as his concubine. When Cheng Anling hears the news, he cannot bear it and immediately finds the woman he abandoned, demanding to know why she is becoming a concubine. The woman smiles at Cheng Anling like a flower in bloom. "From now on, I'll really be your mother." Theme: Stay true to yourself, and learn to trust love and other people.
