[This book won't be abandoned. Let me get my mindset right, and I'll let everyone read it for free]
When Shen Shitan was seventeen, a young girl came to live with his family. Her name was Wen You. She stumbled over her words, blushed easily, and was timid. She was so exquisitely pretty that she looked like a doll in a shop window.
Shen Shitan couldn't quite say how he felt about it.
But,
she seemed pretty well-behaved and not like someone who would cause trouble. She even called him "big brother" in a sweet voice.
It wasn't out of the question.
-
Out of a need for someone to depend on,
Wen You naturally grew attached to Shen Shitan.
Among their peers, it seemed that Shen Shitan was the only one who spent all day wiping his little sister's tears and comforting her.
Watching the girl gradually grow up, with so many admirers around her, Shen Shitan's gaze darkened. For the first time in his life, he wanted to pluck this rose for himself.
-
On her twentieth birthday, Wen You drank a little too much.
Blushing, the girl gazed at him through drunken, unfocused eyes. Summoning her courage, she wanted to ask Shen Shitan if he would date her.
But the words took a detour. "...Shitan, when are you planning to start dating?"
At that, the man raised an eyebrow.
He calmly stubbed out his cigarette and smiled carelessly. "Why?"
"Do you want to date me, big brother?"
Sweet, gentle, well-behaved girl x cunning, bewitching man

Blurb for "Indulged"
When people mention Yu Qing, netizens think she's spoiled, troublesome, and bad-tempered, a pretty face with nothing behind it.
But her background is a mystery, and she has access to countless top-tier opportunities. It's said that even famous directors in the industry treat her with deference.
People in the industry joke that she's just here to experience life.
Yet nobody knows that this heiress married young,
and her husband is Shen Yishan, the current head of the Shen family in the capital. He's an unromantic, ruthless man who always carries a string of Buddhist prayer beads, yet shows not a trace of mercy in his actions.

One makes waves in the entertainment industry,
while the other is so feared in the financial world that people give him a wide berth.
Put them together, and they seem to have absolutely nothing in common.
That is, until a set of photos became a trending topic.
At a charity gala, in a quiet, secluded corner, Yu Qing wore a floor-length red gown. Beneath the sheer fabric, her porcelain-white, delicate shoulders showed. Standing beside her was a dignified man in a tailored suit.
The look he gave her could make anyone melt.
And both of them wore identical rings on their ring fingers, eye-catching and perfectly matched.
Netizens: "!" This has to be fake. I don't believe it!
That night,
the two of them faced off for a long time.
"I'll say it one last time." Beside her, Shen Yishan casually wiped his gold-rimmed glasses. His voice was faint in the darkness. "Make it public."
Yu Qing kept quiet.
After who knew how long, Yu Qing gave in.
[Stop guessing, everyone. It's a wedding ring. I'm married. @ShenYishanV]
After posting, Yu Qing kicked the man to get even for his earlier bullying and threats, but he caught her by the ankle.
Yu Qing got even angrier. "From now on, you can sleep in the living room."
Shen Yishan: "?"

Blurb for "Green Grape"
Ming Yao would never forget.
It was raining that day, and the street was flooded. Trapped outside a shop, she saw a young man beside her, his whole body hazy with the mist of the rain. He held out his umbrella. "Take it. Don't get wet."
She glanced up and met his languid, flirtatious eyes.
Her heart skipped a beat.

The day she decided she would stop liking Xu Qingye, Ming Yao secretly wrote him a letter and slipped it between the pages of his book
[Every moment of a secret crush is like tasting a bunch of green grapes that haven't quite ripened.
You never know what the next one will taste like.
Maybe it'll be sweet,
but it might just be sour again.
So, Xu Qingye, I don't want to keep trying.
And I don't want to like you anymore.]
-
Their reunion years later brought them back into each other's lives.
The flutter of young love was like a wilderness: once it caught a little fire, it spread uncontrollably.
Ming Yao tried her best to hold back, never overstepping.
Until that day.
The sudden rain fell without stopping. Ming Yao stood beneath the eaves. In the distance, a tall, straight-backed man walked toward her beneath a black umbrella and stopped in front of her.
In the silence, he spoke.
"I only hold my umbrella for my girlfriend."
"Have you made up your mind?" Xu Qingye tilted the umbrella toward her, their eyes meeting. His voice was just as it had been all those years ago when he lent her his umbrella. "If you have, come here."
