.
Zhuang Baiwei once had a publicity pairing with another actress. Their ship became a sensation, topping fan-work sites everywhere for a time.
On the eve of the awards ceremony, her partner got married in a surprise wedding and left the industry. Along with her crown as best actress came a tidal wave of attacks from heartbroken fans of their ship.
After years of being poisoned by people insisting, "She's married! How can you possibly lose?" she had saved enough for retirement. With a grand wave of her hand, she announced:
"Stop nagging me. I'm leaving the industry."
"Get married? Never. I'd rather die than get married."
After leaving the industry, she was forced into a series of blind dates, where she met Jiang Muchen, a cool, fragile woman with an air of someone carrying a story. For a moment, she thought she saw someone from the past she'd rather not remember.
She decided to keep her distance and refuse to repeat old mistakes.
.
On the day her flower shop opened, Jiang Muchen quietly brought her a handmade white-rose ornament, beautiful and unique.
Zhuang Baiwei invited her to a meal to say thanks, but after they ate, Jiang Muchen suddenly fainted.
It turned out that the gifted designer had lost her inspiration, and at their blind date, Zhuang Baiwei had become her muse.
To return the favor, Zhuang Baiwei brought Jiang Muchen into the everyday life of her flower shop.
The flower shop's daily routine was full of small, warm moments. Jiang Muchen observed life, while Zhuang Baiwei observed Jiang Muchen.
As they grew closer, Zhuang Baiwei realized that although Jiang Muchen seemed fragile, she was actually very stubborn, like the twilight before dawn, persisting silently without a word.
And so Zhuang Baiwei was drawn to her and decided she had to bring that wisp of twilight into the morning light.
.
When Zhuang Baiwei proposed, Jiang Muchen was dazed.
This big slacker, who lounged lazily in the sun on the shore, had actually jumped into the deep sea for love, just to bring her light.
But the white rose had always shone brightly.
Even from the shore, it could pierce the deep sea and illuminate her.
There was no need to change.

[New novel launches in July] My Human-AI Teammate Is Putting on an Act Again
A sweet-looking but secretly ruthless psychic saintess x a ghost-subduing divine stone who acts like a robot
Wu Shengzhi, orphaned at a young age and raised under someone else's roof, possesses the power to commune with spirits. After a sudden accident, she put on a sweet, innocent facade and refused to open her heart to anyone.
After her college entrance exams, she got a job at a hugely popular horror escape room.
Faced with the smiling staff, her facade crumbled bit by bit:
There are ghosts in this escape room! So many ghosts!
Then came the Ghost Catchers, the Ten Kings of Hell, the Judge, and even the ruler of the underworld, all appearing before her in the flesh. It turned out that this place was a boundary between the living and the dead, established by the underworld...
Wu Shengzhi smiled stiffly: She wanted to run, but they were paying her far too well...
·
After catching ghosts time and again, she finally discovered that her teammate Shi Baiyue, who always wore a fake robotic smile, was actually a ghost-subduing divine stone who could share all five senses with her!
The divine stone was incredibly violent. The evil spirits Wu Shengzhi exhausted herself catching became so obedient after being subdued that they seemed like fake ghosts. One punch from Shi Baiyue nearly scattered their souls...
The divine stone was incredibly powerful. Whenever Wu Shengzhi ran out of strength, Shi Baiyue could pass some of her own to her. She was practically a walking power bank!
Once Wu Shengzhi got used to Shi Baiyue's robotic fake smile, she discovered that the divine stone was incredibly gentle. She prepared hair clips for Wu Shengzhi's short hair, secretly practiced smiling so she wouldn't frighten her, and held her close, staying with her through the night whenever she was sad...
Shi Baiyue: So, Saintess, did you think of me today?
Wu Shengzhi: ??
Shi Baiyue: Okay, you didn't. I'll ask again tomorrow.
·
As they kept catching evil spirits, they stumbled onto a shocking secret:
The ghosts planned to resurrect the Lord of All Evil, who had fallen ten thousand years ago!
Wu Shengzhi's heart blazed with a desire to save the world: Of course, we have to destroy it!
But the ghosts enthroned Shi Baiyue, wanting her to awaken her divine power and rule the world...
Wu Shengzhi: ...??
Shi Baiyue: ...I didn't, I haven't, they're making it up.
The ten thousand ghosts met their end.
