Apocalypse novels have been a bit of a sensitive topic lately, and I don't even know if I'll be able to write this one. For now, don't add it to your favorites. Go check out My Son Is Unfilial and High Treason instead. Historical romance is my comfort zone, so I won't let you down.
Readers who only like the male lead, beware!!!
A spoiled, sharp-tongued, sickly young heiress x a lovesick little bodyguard with masochistic tendencies
Blurb One:
Lin Sheng hates this world. She hates her father, who cheats on her mother and is cold and heartless. She hates her mother, who, in a fit of madness, grabs her by the throat and tells her to die. Most of all, she hates herself, trapped in a cage with no way out.
She cruelly beats and drives away one maid after another, but a little bodyguard is always at her side.
She also hates this boy her father sent to spy on her, and hates how he silently endures and yields to her.
Until one day, he pushes open her bedroom door, covered in blood, his eyes holding back a raging storm.
He lifts her into his arms, throws open the window, and leaps out.
Behind them, with twisted limbs and snarling, come the... zombies.
"Where are you taking me?"
"Taking the young lady to escape."
Blurb Two:
Gu Yan was only seven when the head of the family brought him before Lin Sheng. His parents had died, and his aunt sold him to the Lin family as a servant.
His duty was to keep an eye on the mercurial young lady, but little by little, he came to feel that protecting her was his most important mission.
The young lady is cruel to him. She slaps him, kicks him, and humiliates him with her words, but she never sends him away.
Everything he has comes from the young lady: his food, his clothes, and the things he uses. She buys them with her scholarship money.
"You're my dog. You have to use everything I give you."
"Yes. I'm the young lady's dog."
Blurb Three:
When the apocalypse arrives, an unconventional couple appears in this perilous land.
The girl is always carried on the boy's back, dressed in a spotless white cotton dress, as clean as a lily.
The boy always carries a katana. Apart from his exceptionally handsome face, his body is covered in countless small wounds.
"Who could love a selfish, wicked young heiress?"
"I could."
Gu Yan will always love the young lady.
Reading Guide:
1. Gu the puppy really does have some masochistic tendencies and likes being beaten and scolded by the young lady. If that's not your thing, read with caution.
2. This includes niche BDSM and some gender-bender content. If that's not your thing, definitely read with caution!!!
3. Gu the puppy has dual abilities and is at the peak of combat strength. That's just how he's written. The female lead awakens her abilities very late.
4. I've already made the characters' traits clear in the blurb. If you don't like the leads as they are, please don't read or leave comments. Thank you.
Theme: We don't fit in with the world, but we love each other
