Reborn, the Alluring Charmer Doesn't Want to Hold Back Anymore

Cen Qing, who grew up in a mountain villa, is taken home one day by his adoptive father. His father's kindness in raising him is a great debt, and he should repay it with all his might. But later, Cen Qing discovers that this so-called salvation is just a carefully woven cage. Trapped too deeply in the mire to escape, he has no choice but to endure it again and again. Still, he loses everything and ends up slitting his wrists in a suicide attempt. His adoptive father's son is a young man who treated him coldly even when everyone else doted on him. In the end, though, he holds Cen Qing tight, eyes red as he begs, "Brother, don't fall asleep..." When Cen Qing wakes again, he has returned to the day he was first taken from the villa. He sees Pei Ju, his adoptive younger brother. It is their first reunion since they met five years ago. The refined, handsome young man is still so disciplined and proper. Even when Cen Qing pins him in a shadowy corner, the tips of his ears flush and his breathing turns uneven. "Shh... Someone's coming." This time, Cen Qing won't hold back anymore. Those who hurt him will pay, one by one, at his own hands. Those he cares about, he will protect and keep safe. And Pei Ju... Cen Qing deliberately draws close to him, knowing full well that whenever he turns away, the young man's restrained gaze holds an ever more intense, almost crazed possessiveness. But it's not enough, not nearly enough to give him what he wants... ** Pei Ju has always regarded his father as the person he respects most, looking up to him for nineteen years without fail. Until one late night, he sees with his own eyes that the gentle, elegant man is coming out of his adoptive brother's room. "Still... he's my dad." Pei Ju turns the car around and drives in the opposite direction from Cen Qing. But later, he curls up in the quilt Cen Qing slept under, desperately drawing in his scent. He lets himself sink into ecstasy, pressing his feverish forehead to his phone during a call. His breath is hot, his voice hoarse. "As long as it's what you say, Brother... I'll do anything." Later still, on a small island across the ocean, cannon fire roars as the two sides clash at a critical moment. No one hears the dim closet in a derelict house. The door trembles softly under pressure, creaking as if it can't take much more. "Brother... what you just said to him..." Pei Ju lifts Cen Qing's chin from behind, brushing the damp hair aside with his canine teeth and gently biting the butterfly ear cuff. "What did you mean when you said that what he can't have is in my hands?" ◆ Reborn, I lure the "Wolf King" who killed me into a deadly trap, then capture that "little wolf." ◆ A hunter who wields only a blade of tenderness. #Cool, calculating beauty vs. refined, obsessive puppy, with a four-year age gap; the bottom is older #The bottom is the top's father's adopted son, with no blood relation and no legal adoption (there's a reason); they aren't on the same household register #All armed clashes take place abroad New novel: The Fake Young Master's Demon Childhood Friend Butler [Reborn] [Disabled but fiercely capable beauty young master bottom x gentle, gloomy childhood friend butler top] After being Reborn, Le Han learns that he is the fake young master in a melodramatic wealthy-family romance. In his previous life, he hid his talents to win over the male lead, only to end up disgraced and jump to his death. Now he sees things clearly. Two goals: 1. Lie flat. 2. Make money. As luck would have it, the motion-capture mecha game Satan launches and quickly takes the internet by storm. Le Han sweeps through the game from his wheelchair and makes a fortune. He meant to keep a low profile, but his skills are so good that when the powerful interests fail to tempt or threaten him, they publicly expose his secret identity. At the critical moment when the cameras are hacked, the butler scoops him up in his arms. His white-gloved hand gently cradles Le Han's face, yet half his face remains visible, exquisitely beautiful. The male lead once wanted him to submit, but now begs him to stay. Powerful interests try to buy his compliance, but he tramples them underfoot. And his childhood friend, the butler... Le Han notices that the sleepwear he recently changed out of always gets "accidentally soiled," requiring the butler to "wash it himself." His wheelchair also "happens to break," forcing the butler to "carry him around." At a banquet, someone hands him a glass of wine. He accepts it happily, but the usually silent butler suddenly steps forward. "I'm sorry, but everything concerning the young master is handled by me." That night, the butler finally tears away the restraint he has always maintained. Moisture stains his white gloves. His voice is low and hoarse, just like the NPC in the lust-themed game scenario. He respectfully calls Le Han "Master," yet always leaves him helpless and tempts him into surrender. * Everyone says Ling Yi is the perfect butler. Only Ling Yi himself knows what unspeakable feelings he harbors for his young master. He created Satan himself. In the game, he takes advantage of his disguise to cross every boundary. In real life, he remains refined and impeccably polite, beyond reproach. Until the day the fake young master's true identity is revealed. Everyone, including Le Han, thinks Ling Yi should return to his proper place. But Ling Yi walks toward him step by step, drops to one knee, and places his white-gloved left hand on the third button of his uniform over his heart. "Master." Only Ling Yi knows that every time he makes this gesture, he imagines from this angle how he might overstep his station. #The bottom's legs will recover later; he is top-tier in both strength and looks #One of the bottom's two IDs is a female character for a reason. The game features giant mecha like those in Pacific Rim, with a focus on gritty heroics and tender feelings. Just enjoy the excitement; knowing nothing about games won't matter #The top really is gentle, and really is a yandere, crazily in love and occasionally perverted #Both are each other's first love and have only been with each other; the bottom had a fake ex-boyfriend and was never in love with the original male lead #The bottom's surname has multiple pronunciations, most people say it as Yue, rhyming with "way"; readers can pronounce it however they like Coming soon: I Refused to Cultivate the Heartless Way and Became Everyone's Favorite Ming Shi transmigrates into an old-school cultivation novel as a background-character uncle-master to the male lead. The uncle-master barely appears, but has an extraordinary identity: the first person in the world to master the Heartless Way. His role in the plot is to kill his "wife" to prove his Dao, then persuade the male lead to cultivate the same way. Instead, he ends up becoming the male lead's greatest supporter. Ming Shi arrives at an opportune moment, with his sword pointed at the heart of his cheap Dao companion. The companion is blind, his eyes covered by blue gauze. His left arm is crippled and he looks frail, like a weak scholar. Ming Shi immediately puts away his sword. He won't cultivate the Heartless Way or marry a man, so he writes a divorce letter and makes a run for it. The cultivation world is full of dangers, so Ming Shi sensibly chooses to rely on his sect. He searches for a way back while continuing to play the background character. But after a while, he realizes something is wrong... His martial nephew, that bright young man, gives him a sword pendant that should have gone to the male lead's love interest. The male lead's love interest, his aloof senior brother, says they should cultivate their mental techniques together, yet his gaze is full of dark undercurrents. Even the greatest villain in the book takes off his mask of benevolence, revealing bloodstained fangs, just to make Ming Shi his. Ming Shi uses his god's-eye view to gather rare treasures and work hard at cultivation, afraid that before he can return to his own world, some strange people will do unspeakable things to him. But who would have thought that taking things too far would have consequences? One day, he advances too quickly, his meridians reverse, and he grows feverish with burning desire... After a night of indescribable passion, he wakes to find an immortal in blue standing tall, white hair cascading like a waterfall. Amid drifting immortal mist, the divorce letter lies before Ming Shi. ...It's his cheap Dao companion. Not only has his eyesight returned, but judging by last night's performance, his stamina is beyond compare. Several people who came rushing to find him freeze at the entrance of the cave. Ming Shi sees his senior brother bow respectfully and grit out, "Master." They say the Venerable Immortal Lang Huan went into seclusion for three hundred years. It turns out he had descended to the mortal world to undergo a tribulation. They also say he mastered the Heartless Way and entered the Deity Transformation realm. #Transmigrated in body; the bottom is a seemingly gentle but truly indifferent beauty, extremely powerful and clear-headed, and no one can make him suffer #All the tops are devoted to one another, both physically and emotionally; the original male lead and his love interest haven't fallen for each other at this point, and the master and the original character were never true Dao companions Theme: Brave the thorns and pursue freedom
