My Archnemesis Confessed to Me After Skiing

Thanks for supporting the official release. Please add my upcoming novel to your favorites!

Skiing prodigy Gu Shiyan is described by commentators as a steady competitor in major events.

Steady mindset, steady performance... steady good looks.

Fans: Gu is looking as gorgeous as ever today.

At the end of the competition, Gu Shiyan takes second place. The one above him keeps beating him, every single time.

His fans comfort him, saying that once he presents as an Alpha, his physical abilities will improve and he can take another shot at winning.

Gu Shiyan believes them and swears that he'll present as a top-tier Alpha!

He keeps setting himself up for failure, but Gu Shiyan is still second... and Shen Yunjue presents as a top Alpha first.

Gu Shiyan asks his teammate: Is there any creature stronger than a top Alpha?

Teammate: A top Omega, of course. They're Alpha kryptonite.

Gu Shiyan: ?

Later, after Gu Shiyan really does present as an Omega, he chases that teammate down the street for three blocks, until the guy hides behind Shen Yunjue.

This is the rival he probably won't ever surpass, a competitor blessed by the mountains and snow, with a reputation to match and a gentle nature all the same.

His rival reaches out to help him, secretly slipping him a bottle of suppressants, his smile as gentle as a breeze.

He tells Gu Shiyan softly, "Don't let anyone find out about your Omega pheromones."

Holding the suppressants, Gu Shiyan turns away and rubs at his reddened eyes. Suddenly, a low, dark murmur comes from behind him: "I won't be able to control myself."

But when he turns around, Shen Yunjue's smile hasn't changed. Gu Shiyan thinks he must have misheard.

He doesn't see Shen Yunjue's fingertips clenched until they're white.

My other novel, The Sickly Beauty Never Meant to Turn His Homophobic Childhood Friend, is being serialized next door!

A lazy sickly beauty bottom who turns his childhood friend gay x a possessive fatherly top whose obsession has warped into an S disposition

Qiao Qi was born prematurely on a damp, rainy day and was sickly from childhood.

His parents asked their neighbor's son, who was a year older and a freshman in college, Xie Chuanting, to take Qiao Qi to and from school.

Qiao Qi and Xie Chuanting were inseparable, growing up together.

By the time Qiao Qi graduated from high school, Xie Chuanting was already the president of A University's basketball club and a campus celebrity. Rumor had it that he was a germaphobe, frigid, and homophobic.

He simply turned down girls who confessed to him, but when a guy confessed, he beat him so badly he ended up in the hospital with broken bones.

After a sudden summer downpour, Qiao Qi lay in Xie Chuanting's arms, his hair half-wet, letting him dry it.

Suddenly, he looked up and moved close enough for their breaths to mingle, feeling Xie Chuanting's muscles tense.

"Do you hate it when I do this, big brother?" His smile was damp with the rain as he pulled away.

Qiao Qi was lazy and had no interest in the difficult task of turning a homophobic straight man gay.

After thinking it over, he realized he just wanted to try dating Xie Chuanting.

Qiao Qi made a new account and pretended to be a girl so he could date Xie Chuanting online.

Xie Chuanting wouldn't add his new account on WeChat.

All of Qiao Qi's friend requests went unanswered. In the note for his final request, Qiao Qi wrote two words: "Big brother."

The request was accepted.

x: Don't call me big brother.

x was incredibly hard to pursue, so Qiao Qi said he was pretty.

He put on a skirt, took a photo, and sent it to x.

After he sent the photo, their relationship suddenly progressed smoothly.

After dating online for a while, x asked to meet in person.

Qiao Qi broke up with him.

After Qiao Qi deleted his account, Xie Chuanting went mad on the spot and eventually found the culprit.

Caught in the act, Qiao Qi tried to comfort him: "Because I can't marry you."

Xie Chuanting's eyes were bloodshot as he pulled Qiao Qi close by the waist and said, "You can."

"All you have to do is ask."

Qiao Qi: ?

That's not what I meant. [Not listening, just playing the victim]

Angsty, melodramatic upcoming novel: He Loved Me Only After My Heart Died [Substitute]

Wen Dong is the illegitimate son of the Wen family and only dares to secretly love Ji Huaiyan.

By chance, Wen Dong becomes Ji Huaiyan's lover.

The day he moves into Ji Huaiyan's private residence, Wen Dong sees a wall in the bedroom covered with photos of Ji Huaiyan and "him," from childhood to the present. They silently declare the depth of their love, leaving no room for anyone else.

He stares at them for a long time. The housekeeper remains politely indifferent, and Wen Dong realizes that his own love is worthless. In silence, he moves out of the master bedroom.

Later, a photo of Wen Dong, homeless and in a sorry state, is taken. The next day, it appears in the news alongside another report: Ji Huaiyan, holding flowers, standing at "his" grave, his love plain to see.

On the day Wen Dong eagerly expects their relationship to be made public, Ji Huaiyan goes out to sea to find "him," leaving Wen Dong to face endless ridicule.

On a long-planned anniversary trip, Ji Huaiyan changes their route at the last minute, forcing Wen Dong to look out at the pitch-black sea.

"Back then, he gave me the chance to live on a sea like this, while you can't even stand on your own."

Wen Dong's face turns deathly pale. His voice is barely audible. "I'm not him. I'm sorry..."

After the shock, Wen Dong develops a high fever that won't go away. A helicopter takes him away, and a few days later, Ji Huaiyan receives news that Wen Dong has died of illness.

*

The Ji family heir seems to have gone mad. Even though the white moonlight he loved has returned, he pushes him away and rushes to the cemetery in the middle of the night.

Muttering, "Wen Dong is afraid of the dark and water. He can't stay underground," he digs at the soil, completely disregarding his appearance.

They say there was no one inside the coffin when it was finally opened.

The belief that Wen Dong is still alive is all that keeps Ji Huaiyan going. He often lies awake until dawn in Wen Dong's bedroom, which is filled with Wen Dong's paintings.

Obsessed, he visits art exhibitions and buys paintings, demanding to meet the artists behind them. Others think Ji Huaiyan has simply changed his tastes, but the housekeeper knows the truth: Ji Huaiyan doesn't want the artist. All he wants is Wen Dong.

Among the winners of the highest honor at the World Illustration Awards is an unknown, slender, gentle young Chinese man.

The reports circulating in China show only a blurred silhouette. The moment Ji Huaiyan sees it, he grits his teeth, eyes red with fury.

Wen Dong.
