The Green Tea Wolf Prince Comes Calling

〓Beautiful Bandit Chieftain × Sly, Flirtatious Wolf〓

Gu Qiao is the chieftain of Tiger's Den, possesses a vast fortune, and is stunningly beautiful.

One day, a young man came up from the foot of the mountain. He looked about eighteen or nineteen, with slightly dark skin, handsome features, and a tall, slender build.

A young underling guarding the gate asked, "What business do you have here, sir?"

The young man lowered his eyes to the small child in his arms and smiled gently. "Please let the chieftain know that I've brought my child to see his mother."

"Who's your wife?"

"Chief Gu."

Gu Qiao, who had been watching the show while snacking: ???

How had she suddenly become a mother?

At first, she wasn't interested in the dark-skinned young man. But he was handsome, knew just what to say, and would even turn red-eyed for her at the drop of a hat.

Later, he even showed her his fluffy ears and big tail and let her pet them as much as she wanted.

Ah… who could resist that?

I'm claiming him!

Blurb for the upcoming novel The Little Songstress:

#A stepchild romance in an unconventional sense

[Beautiful Songstress with a Sweet Voice × Dashing Young Top Scholar]

Female lead's perspective:

The little songstress Yan Li was reborn.

Her family was dirt poor, and her parents favored boys over girls. She and her older sister, Yan Fu, were forced to sing for money, while being harassed and insulted was an everyday occurrence.

When Yan Li was seventeen, her sister was sold to a coarse butcher to provide for the family. Less than half a year later, she was dead from his abuse.

Half a year after that, Yan Li refused to become the concubine of Lord Ying, a wealthy merchant in Lingcheng, and hanged herself on the very night she was carried into the Ying residence.

The sisters' lives were both short and miserable.

When Yan Li awoke, a chubby little brother was beating and kicking her.

Their mother gently urged him on from the side. "Rongrong, take it easy, or you'll hurt your hands."

Yan Li: …

She decided she would no longer put up with this.

She slapped her chubby little brother and said viciously, "If you hit me again, I'll sell you to Sun the Butcher."

Yan Rong froze, then burst into tears. Yan Li was immediately beaten half to death by their father and left lying on a straw mat.

That night, she dragged her sick body over and quietly woke her older sister. The two of them fled home together.

Later, a pair of songstress sisters appeared in the capital. Their beauty was unparalleled and their singing enchanting, making countless young noblemen swoon. Yet the sisters were proud and rarely agreed to sing at anyone's home.

Naturally, some people were disgruntled that two singers-for-hire were so high and mighty.

One day, Yan Li was abducted. The kidnappers drugged her as part of their whole operation. When she woke, she found a remarkably handsome man.

His clothes were disheveled, and his eyes were closed.

Hmm? A handsome young gentleman with an impressive bearing…

After the drug wore off, Yan Li slipped away.

A few days later, she went to sing at the residence of the newly appointed top scholar. When her eyes met those of a young man in red seated below the stage, she froze.

How could Ying Ce, the top scholar, be the same man from that day?

Ying Ce's thin lips curled into a smile, and a glimmer of amusement flashed through his dark eyes. This time, at last… I've caught you.

Male lead's perspective:

When his father's seventh concubine was carried into the residence, Ying Ce glimpsed a pair of clear, bright eyes beneath the bridal veil embroidered with twin lotuses.

They fluttered like butterflies, and he heard his own heart beating far too fast.

Before the night was half over, he heard that she had attempted suicide.

As he was consumed by regret, he opened his eyes again, his vision blurred, and found the girl who should have been dead standing before him.

Her face was flushed, her lips red, and her almond-shaped eyes were veiled in mist. Blushing, she tugged at his lapels.

Ying Ce lowered his eyes and silently held her tighter.
