Not to Be Trifled With

This novel will be VIP from May 4. Thank you, dear readers, for your support!

1.

The Huo family of Beicheng is a family of scholars.

Huo Xiang, the Huo family's third daughter, is poised and reserved, gentle and refined.

She is renowned in high society as a proper young lady from a distinguished family.

One day, photos of Huo Xiang's fiance, Qin Cheng, kissing a popular young actress make the headlines, causing a huge uproar.

Everyone in their circle feels the Huo family has been wronged, and curses the Qin family for picking on someone they think won't fight back. Given Huo Xiang's gentle nature, she's sure not to make a scene.

Even Qin Cheng thinks so. He confidently tells his friend he'll smooth things over with a few sweet words later.

But no one expects Huo Xiang to break off the engagement that very day, then make a very public show of sponsoring a handsome, impoverished college student.

2.

By chance, Huo Xiang ends up sponsoring a poor college student.

Although his family is poor, he is neither servile nor arrogant, and is modest and polite, like a rose flourishing in a crack in the stone.

Thinking his life must be difficult, she secretly keeps helping him.

Until, at a banquet, the head of the Bo family, the most prominent family in Beicheng, returns.

Huo's father takes her to meet him.

At the sight of that familiar face, Huo Xiang freezes, then addresses him according to their place in the family: "Uncle."

Her voice is soft.

He gives a quiet affirmative, passing by as if by chance. But the instant their shoulders brush, he turns his head and chuckles. "Why aren't you calling me 'stinky little brother' today?"

3.

Qin Cheng never imagined his seemingly pure and kind girlfriend was actually a two-faced hypocrite who treated people differently depending on their status.

Remembering how good Huo Xiang was to him, he regrets everything and waits downstairs, hoping to get back together.

But the ring on her left ring finger burns his eyes. His eyes redden as he asks, "Who is it?"

A tall figure steps up behind Huo Xiang and envelops her, taking her hand in his. Their two rings gleam in the moonlight.

The man's cool eyes are filled with possessiveness as he says, "Pretty, isn't it? I bought it for your aunt."

#You're even harder to mess with than I am#

My next novel with a spark, Lovesick Addiction, is in the same series. Don't miss it if you're interested, darlings!

Blurb: Luo Li suffered cognitive impairment after an illness when she was little. Her nicknames changed from little princess and pretty girl to little fool and big dummy.

When she was four, her parents divorced and her father left. At five, her only friend abandoned her. At six, a new family moved in next door.

The new neighbors had a boy her age. He was fair-skinned, clean-cut, and gentle, a handsome young gentleman. He was the only one willing to play with Luo Li. He smiled at her tenderly and never called her a big dummy like the other children did.

It was no surprise that Luo Li fell for him. She loved him with all her heart, without reservation, and there was no cure for it.

But a genius with an extraordinary IQ and a fool with an intellectual disability were never meant to have a future together. In their senior year of high school, he was admitted to MIT through an early recommendation. As he was leaving, Luo Li reminded him, "You have to call me."

He smiled and nodded. "I know."

But years passed, and she never heard another word about him. Like a bubble evaporating in the sunlight, every trace of him vanished from her life. It was as if he had disappeared.

Then, two years into her career, Luo Li ran into his mother on the street.

Gathering her courage, Luo Li went over to ask, "How is he?"

Madam Yin smiled broadly. "About the same as ever. Jia Yu is abroad, and he's getting married soon."

She couldn't remember how she got home that day. All she remembered was writing in her diary: Yin Jiayu, do you feel guilty about me?

In the tenth year, the person who felt guilty toward her came back.

P.S. Don't trust the blurb. This is a sweet romance = =
