Playing Nice

[The early chapters lean toward satisfying wish fulfillment, while the later chapters are more healing in tone. It stays sweet from beginning to end.] Xu Zhi is beautiful, with a red beauty mark beneath the corner of her eye. Everyone thinks that even the most beautiful adjectives in the world could never do her justice. But only Xu Zhi knows how vindictive and ruthless she really is. She repays those who bully her tenfold, a hundredfold. The sweet, well-behaved girl is just an act. She wears that disguise only so that, when she sees that person again, she will still look like someone good and lovely. But what she doesn't know is this: When she corners another girl against a wall, lightly pats her cheek, and smiles with a curl of her lips, saying, "Try that again, and things will end even worse for you." Around the corner, a young man leaning lazily against the wall lets out a low, amused laugh. Ah... So she isn't that well-behaved after all. Does that mean... He can get close to her without having to suppress his feelings? * Xu Zhi never expected Chen Ci to see through her true nature. From that day on, Chen Ci, who had always kept his distance from her, became like a rabid dog. He was constantly thinking about how to devour her whole. Xu Zhi had never planned on falling in love. A high wall stood around her heart, bristling with thorns, allowing no one to come near. But Chen Ci forced his way in, tore down her wall, and told her she could put away all those sharp thorns, because he would protect her. He also took her into his world, where she was surrounded by his passionate love, and showed her that someone was willing to love every part of her and would never abandon her. Chen Ci really was a rabid dog, a bastard who kept stealing kisses from her, but he was also the light of her life. Yet one day, Chen Ci told her, "Xu Zhi, you're the one who lights up my world." Only then did Xu Zhi realize that seven years earlier, they had already entered each other's worlds like rays of light. It was their reunion as two lights that allowed them, each wandering alone in the darkness, to pull each other out of the abyss. From a single ray of light, they became each other's sun. P.S.: 1. A one-on-one story of mutual healing, not an old-fashioned trope. The leads don't fall for each other because of something that happened in their childhood. 2. There are no misunderstandings between the leads throughout the story, and no secondary couples. Once they're together, they stay together. It's all sweetness and wish fulfillment. 3. The female lead is ruthless and a green tea schemer, but only toward villains. She really does hold grudges and get revenge, so don't read if that's not your thing. 4. The male lead is unbelievably, unbelievably, unbelievably wonderful! He's the stuff of daydreams! He's a shameless flirt and a bit of a dog, but deep down he's incredibly gentle! 5. The leads are adults, having taken time off from school. My next book will be "Caught in a Fire." Here's the blurb: They say you're reckless and depraved, but my soul caught fire because of you. [College Campus] The first time An Mi met Chen Yu, she smashed a bottle over his head and drew blood. Well, that's how they met. It was all a misunderstanding. Chen Yu had no intention of holding it against An Mi. He only said, "Remember, you owe me a favor." But An Mi said, "I don't like owing anyone. If you're still angry, call the police. I'll go sit in jail for a couple of days." Chen Yu curled his lips. "Crazy woman." He thought she was crazy, and the second time he ran into her, she was even crazier. Every man who had seen her lose it kept his distance, but Chen Yu's gaze remained fixed on her. That was probably why everyone else only saw her crazy side, while he alone saw her pure white soul. His friends could tell he was interested in her and advised him, "A playboy like you, who changes women every few days, has no business messing with a lunatic. Playing with fire around a crazy woman could get you burned to death." Chen Yu listened and laughed with a carefree, roguish air. "Then I'll just be crazy too." She's crazy, so he'll go crazy right alongside her. * He could become a lunatic for her, or transform into a god for her. On An Mi's twenty-first birthday, he asked, "What did you wish for?" "It won't come true if I tell you," An Mi said. He smiled. "A wish has to be spoken aloud to come true, because..." "The gods won't grant your wish, but I will." P.S.: - Both leads are each other's first and only. The male lead is a playboy in appearance, but a true romantic at heart. - The female lead is genuinely crazy, and genuinely a Good Samaritan. - There are plenty of female supporting characters, but they're all competing for the female lead. - There are misunderstandings, but both leads know how to communicate. Theme: May everyone find their own salvation.
