A Paper Effigy Lover

Blurb One

When Li Yinge was twelve, she crossed paths with a paper effigy that had come to life, and accidentally let it suck her blood and vital essence. It kept pestering her and demanding that she go with him. In the end, she fought back desperately and managed to escape only after slashing the paper figure's neck with scissors.

She spent the next ten years living in constant fear, until she met Mr. Yi, who doted on her and loved her.

But one day, a wound split open the smooth, unblemished skin of Mr. Yi's neck, revealing bright red flesh and pale cervical bones.

He seemed not to feel a thing, and continued smiling at her tenderly.

Blurb Two

He is her paper effigy lover, ready to split apart with a single poke.

But he can't let her find out.

One-on-one romance

Happy ending

P.S. This is a story about love at first sight as children. But because he pursued her the wrong way, he ended up turning his childhood sweetheart into a vengeful ghost.

Inspired by a supernatural story the author once heard.

Set in a fictional world, with lots of original worldbuilding.

The male lead is an atypical yandere who graduated from Gentlemanly Conduct Academy, so he can't bring himself to act tough with the female lead.

Also titled Paper Effigy Lover.

A free short story. Writing isn't easy, so please don't insult the author or the female lead. Comments will be deleted if I see them.

Thank you for reading.

Folding That Yin Peach Blossom by Liu Qingxiu

Blurb

By chance, Chi Liu rescued a woman who was trying to drown herself at the seaside, and also won the heart of Qi Xingyun.

From then on, Chi Liu could see a tall, handsome man in her dreams every night.

She dreamed that he reached out to her, smiling as he said,

"Liu Liu, come with me."

P.S. The male lead is Qi Xingyun. He dies right at the start, so he's the female lead's ill-fated romantic prospect.

Since this is a short, free story, please don't insult the lousy author or the female lead. Comments will be deleted if I see them.

Thank you for reading.
