Cherished in the Palm of His Hand

Complete.

A sweet, doting romance that starts with marriage, featuring a husband with a fatherly streak.

Next novel: He’s Been Plotting This for a Long Time, where the second male lead gets the girl.

Blurb:

1. He Xinyao's boyfriend of four years secretly climbed into the bed of a rich girl behind her back.

When she found out, he turned around and blamed her, claiming she never let him touch her.

She dumped the scumbag at once, only to get fired after offending a client.

Down on her luck in both work and love, she decided to go home and lie flat.

2. But just a few days later, she was forced to go on blind dates again, where she met one bizarre man after another.

That day, her mother found another "high-quality match" for her. He was a friend of her younger uncle, with a house, a car, and a stable career. He was a little older, but mature and good at taking care of people...

Out of patience, He Xinyao snapped, "Fine, fine, fine! Balding, with a big belly... I'll marry him, okay?"

As soon as the words left her mouth, the air fell utterly silent.

A breeze blew in through the window, carrying a faint scent of pine.

A deep male voice sounded from across the table. "Sorry I'm late."

He Xinyao looked up in a daze and met a pair of deep, narrow phoenix eyes.

The man was in his thirties, dressed in a well-tailored black suit, with thick hair and a straight, elegant figure.

His thin lips were pressed together, and gold-rimmed glasses rested on his sharp nose. His whole bearing was distant and cool...

3. When she got married, He Xinyao had no expectations for married life.

Who knew life after the wedding would be even more comfortable than before?

Once, when her younger uncle came over, she accidentally heard him grumble to Lu Lincheng, "How can you spoil her like that? Are you raising her as your daughter?"

He Xinyao's heart gave a sudden thump.

The next moment, she saw the man across from her holding a teapot smile. His usually cool voice held a rare hint of indulgence.

"I've waited six years. You try it."

4. Before bed that night, He Xinyao hugged Lu Lincheng for the first time of her own accord.

She sweetly called him, "Honey."

The next moment, she saw the man before her freeze in surprise, an expression rarely seen on him.

Then he pulled her forcefully into his warm embrace.

"Wifey~"

5. Later, He Xinyao ran into her ex-boyfriend on the street. The rich girl had dumped him.

She meant to pretend she hadn't seen him, but her ex wouldn't leave her alone and came over with an indignant look.

"Which old man's car is this?"

As soon as the words left his mouth,

a tall, slender figure stepped out of the car. The distinguished man drew her into his arms.

His tone was cold and domineering. "Her husband."

The hero is eight years older than the heroine. Both are virgins.

Next novel: My Rich Second-Generation Classmate Is a Little Scheming

That year, Xu Yifan gave it everything she had and finally got into City No. 1 High School as a student admitted through a special rural placement program.

But she discovered that, in the face of reality, hard work could sometimes feel painfully insignificant.

Some people slept through class and still ranked near the top of their year.

Others never missed a basketball game or a video game, and didn't care if they came in last.

The first kind was her deskmate, Ling Yue, a top student who could get into a top university without lifting a finger.

The second was her back-row classmate, Fu Jingyuan, who was always making fun of her. His family had money to burn, and even if he slacked off, he would inherit a fortune.

Back then, Ling Yue was the person Xu Yifan chased after, the only light in her grueling high school life.

Until one day, Fu Jingyuan found her diary.

"I'll walk against the light, and still stand beside you: Ling Yue."

Her secret feelings were exposed to everyone, with nowhere left to hide.

As her classmates laughed, Xu Yifan's face flushed red. She was so ashamed she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it.

But a slender hand returned her diary. A gentle voice said, "Thanks. Let's work hard together."

Xu Yifan stared at him in a daze. Fireworks went off in her head, and all she could see was the handsome boy's face.

One day later, Xu Yifan went to the basketball gym to look for the watch she'd left behind after PE.

There, on the vast court, Fu Jingyuan wore a white jersey and balanced a basketball on one finger, his expression languid. "If you don't like her, why give her hope?"

Not far away, Ling Yue's lean figure faced away from her as he casually shot a basket one-handed.

"...She's a student from the countryside on a special placement program. The teacher said we should look after her."

Not long after, Xu Yifan applied to change seats.

After graduation, her classmates never saw her again...

Seven years later.

Dressed in a black traffic enforcement uniform, Xu Yifan was dealing with illegally parked cars on the street.

As she reached the central avenue, a black Maybach appeared behind her, brazenly following close at her heels.

Through the car window, a pair of burning eyes followed her every step.

After checking two more cars, Xu Yifan calmly turned around and tapped on the Maybach's window with her white-gloved hand.

"Sorry, you can't park here."

In the glow of the setting sun, the window slowly rolled down, revealing the owner's handsome, confident face.

Fu Jingyuan took the cigarette from his mouth, his manner casual and unrestrained.

"Mrs. Fu, how many tickets do I have to collect before you'll have time to have dinner with me?"

You can stand right there, no matter how far away you are. I'll come find you.

Fu Jingyuan

Coming Soon: Marriage First, Love Later (Older Woman/Younger Man)

1. On the day the senior she'd secretly loved for years got married, Dai Xiaoying got drunk and somehow ended up in bed with Xie Yiming, her best friend's younger brother...

Xie Yiming was four years younger than her and was pursuing both his undergraduate and master's degrees at Z University. In the eyes of adults, he was a model, well-behaved young man.

He was also sweet-natured. Whenever he saw her, he would politely call her "Sister."

Looking at his young, handsome sleeping face beside her, Dai Xiaoying was mortified and fled in a panic.

2. During that time, she didn't dare go to the Xie family home, face her best friend, or answer Xie Yiming's calls.

She thought it was all behind her, but a month later, Dai Xiaoying discovered to her horror that she was pregnant!!!

After agonizing over it for a long time, she decided to sneak off to the hospital for an abortion.

But she hadn't even made it into the outpatient building when a certain younger man blocked her at the entrance.

"It's a little life, after all. Can you really be so heartless, Sister?"

"Do you know it can feel pain, too?"

"Aren't you afraid... it'll come back to haunt you?"

"Stop talking."

Dai Xiaoying covered her ears and caved in without a fight.

3. Under the pressure of being slapped to death, she nervously confessed everything to her best friend.

She hadn't expected Xie Yixuan to hear her out and then slap... her own younger brother on the shoulder.

"Damn, little bro, you've got guts!"

Then she happily put an arm around her friend. "Don't worry, sis-in-law. I'll have your back from now on!"

Dai Xiaoying: "..."

Why was this so different from what she'd imagined?

4. Under pressure from both families, the two got married not long afterward.

On their wedding night, Dai Xiaoying said guiltily to her young groom, "If you meet a girl you like in the future, we can get divorced anytime."

Xie Yiming's eyes flickered. He stroked her still barely visible belly, smiled, and said nothing.

On the day he graduated from college, Dai Xiaoying brought their daughter to the ceremony, only to see a young, beautiful girl confess her feelings to him.

That night, she took the initiative and brought up divorce.

After listening to her calmly, Xie Yiming smiled innocently. "The kids can't grow up without a dad!"

Dai Xiaoying: "...How come I didn't know I was pregnant again?"

Xie Yiming held their daughter, looking completely unruffled. "You're not yet, but we should respond to the country's call..."
