Capturing a Beating Heart

1.

Si Yihan was the leading figure among Ningcheng's elite. Strict and exacting, he kept women at arm's length, so no one expected him to fall for a woman like Su Rao, who was so brazen and flamboyant.

Su Rao got together with Si Yihan for one reason only: he was the man her stepsister, Su Yuwei, dreamed of having.

Su Yuwei joined the Su family when she was eight. She acted sweet and innocent in public, but constantly framed Su Rao behind the scenes, ruining her reputation at school more and more with each passing day.

Eventually, Su Rao decided to turn the tables and use Su Yuwei's own fake-sweet routine against her, leaving her nowhere to turn.

While Su Yuwei was still plotting how to confess to Si Yihan, Su Rao was already free to come and go at his home.

2.

After their relationship was made public, Su Rao shamelessly flaunted their romance right in front of Su Yuwei.

Whenever Si Yihan was around, she spoke in a sweet, coquettish voice and acted so helpless she could barely look after herself, completely unlike the person she was around Su Yuwei.

Fuming, Su Yuwei tried to expose Su Rao's true colors to Si Yihan, but he ignored her.

After that, Si Yihan spoiled Su Rao even more.

He bought her luxury cars and villas, showered her with every luxury brand imaginable, let her leave lipstick marks on the collar of his white shirts, took her traveling around the world, and brought her along to important business events.

Su Yuwei was so jealous she could barely stand it.

3.

Everyone thought Si Yihan was just caught up in the novelty and would get tired of Su Rao eventually. Even Su Rao thought so herself.

Instead, she got a marriage proposal from Si Yihan.

He cornered her in the hallway and looked at her with dark, unreadable eyes. "You've been acting for long enough. Time to play a different role."

Su Rao met his gaze, flustered.

He slowly leaned in and whispered in her ear, "Play Mrs. Si."

[One-on-one. Sweet, satisfying romance]

[I reach out to pluck the moon. Even if I fail, I'll still be among the stars.]

Blurb for Love Like Still Water:

1.

Everyone who knew Tang Ning knew how much she loved Lin Yue.

She had once been willing to put aside her heiress's pride just to pursue him.

After a year together, the Tang family went bankrupt. Before Tang Ning could even accept the reality of falling from the heights of wealth, Lin Yue broke up with her.

Not long afterward, Tang Ning saw Lin Yue with another girl, the two of them inseparable. He was gentle and smiling with her in a way he had never been with Tang Ning.

When they ran into each other, Lin Yue wasn't the least bit embarrassed. Instead, he brazenly told Tang Ning that the girl was the one he'd secretly loved for years. If she hadn't gone abroad and broken his heart, he never would have dated Tang Ning out of spite.

2.

The socialites all mocked Tang Ning, ridiculing her for being such a poor judge of character.

Once the center of everyone's attention, she had become someone everyone felt free to kick while she was down.

At her most humiliated, Tang Ning never imagined that Jiang Wenjing would step in to help her.

Known for his ruthless, cold-blooded ways, he was a powerful man revered and feared by countless people.

Jiang Wenjing helped the Tang family rise from the ashes, and Tang Ning had no way to repay him.

When she asked what he wanted, he remained silent.

A few days later, on a stormy night, the two of them were trapped in a car. In the pitch darkness, Jiang Wenjing spoke softly: "Didn't you ask what I wanted? I want you."

3.

At a business reception, someone noticed a ring on Jiang Wenjing's ring finger. Overnight, rumors that the business tycoon had married spread throughout high society.

At an international auction later on, Jiang Wenjing paid a sky-high price for a villa on a private island. When the media interviewed him, he openly said, "My wife loves the sea."

That settled the rumors once and for all.

Everyone who knew him wondered what kind of woman could catch Jiang Wenjing's eye.

Then a video secretly filmed by a passerby went viral online.

In it, Jiang Wenjing held a slender beauty in a cheongsam in his arms. Her profile looked especially sweet and delicate.

That night, as the video blew up, Jiang Wenjing registered on Weibo for the first time and shared a generous helping of couple content in the middle of the night.

[My wife got tired from walking and insisted I carry her. @Tang Ning]

Blurb for Love Never Sleeps:

On a midsummer night, Lin Anchu happened to witness a stranger getting rejected while confessing to a boy. She heard the girl ask, unwilling to give up, "Lu Yu, what kind of girl do you like, anyway?"

The rebellious boy glanced to the side. "Pretty and well-behaved."

Lu Yu didn't know Lin Anchu, but she knew all about him.

He was the star of the affiliated high school, an adored young man born with the world at his feet. Unruly and carefree, he had countless girls who liked him.

-

In the second semester of her sophomore year, Lin Anchu transferred to the affiliated high school and happened to become Lu Yu's deskmate.

At her old school, she was a tough girl who could carry giant water jugs for the teachers. Now, she sweetly set a bottle of juice in front of Lu Yu. "Open this for me."

At home, she could stomp a cockroach to death without batting an eye. But when a tiny bug crawled out of her desk, she grabbed the boy beside her by the sleeve, looking horrified. "That's so scary."

Lin Anchu hid every sharp edge and played the good girl around Lu Yu, never imagining there would come a day when her act fell apart.

Then one night, while Lin Anchu and a friend were at a barbecue stall, a man made lewd comments at them. She rolled up her sleeves and threw him to the ground with a sudden shoulder throw.

Lu Yu, who had just been about to sit down nearby: "..."

So this fragile little white lotus could take down three people with one punch?!

Theme: Love bravely.
