Crossing the Line

This story is free and will not be going premium~ A little sweet treat to mix things up.

Coming soon: [Remarry If You Keep Acting Up]. Blurb below.

Tong Yusheng first met Zhao Wanchu when she was called into the office over a question of dating while underage.

She looked up and saw Zhao Wanchu walk through the door.

The teacher told her that this was the parent of the person she was dating. Tong Yusheng had been trembling with nerves, with eyes only for the cool, gorgeous woman.

Reborn in high school, Tong Yusheng timed her entrance for when Zhao Wanchu came in, then gave a lazy laugh. "What took you so long?"

Zhao Wanchu: "?"

As her stand-in guardian, Zhao Wanchu earnestly tried to talk Tong Yusheng out of dating her sister-in-law while they were still in school.

But the girl said something shocking: "Then how about you instead?"

From then on, Zhao Wanchu had a little shadow following her around.

At first, the little shadow just sweetly and obediently called her "big sister." But once she got into Zhao Wanchu's home, she started pushing boundaries, taking over her bed, and refusing to sleep without kisses and cuddles.

Zhao Wanchu: Who could resist that?

Then they got married...

Only then did Zhao Wanchu realize that the girl had been pretending to be sweet and well-behaved all along. She'd been the school bully queen back in the day, and after they married, she seduced Zhao Wanchu senseless in bed every night.

Blurb Two:

When she opened her eyes again, Tong Yusheng smacked her thigh in delight.

She'd thought she had fallen for someone she could never be with, so she never confessed, even before she died in her previous life.

It wasn't until she saw Zhao Wanchu clutching a diary full of Tong Yusheng's innermost secrets and weeping uncontrollably that she realized how much Zhao Wanchu loved her.

Night after night, she'd heard Zhao Wanchu murmur, "If there's another life, could you tell me sooner?"

After being reborn, Tong Yusheng confessed at once.

Zhao Wanchu: "You dated my sister-in-law while you were still in school, and now you want to go after me too? You're asking for trouble."

Tong Yusheng: "...You didn't say that in your previous life. QAQ"

#No dating while underage, just getting married young#

#Your favoritism lets me push the boundaries without fear#

1. The underage-dating ex was a misunderstanding. No dating before adulthood.

2. There are school scenes, but the story mostly focuses on romance and married life. It's a big, sweet, everyday-life healing story. If it's not sweet, you don't pay!

3. See my profile for more upcoming and completed stories. There may be a few changes when this story begins.

4. Ten-year age gap. The plot is melodramatic and simple. Feel free to drop it if it's not for you.

New story blurb:

A woman long established at the top x an ambitious beauty

On the night they got their marriage licenses, Xu Xingren watched Gu Congshu seated in the middle of a booth, surrounded by everyone. As Gu Congshu picked up her glass, the wedding band on her knuckle gleamed.

People cheered and pushed Xu Xingren into Gu Congshu's arms. Gu Congshu wrapped one arm around her, her cool presence enveloping Xu Xingren and making her heart pound.

For a moment, Xu Xingren almost thought her years-long unrequited love had finally seen the light of day.

"Stop it," she heard Gu Congshu say, her voice cool and distant. She quickly let go. "We have no feelings for each other."

On their anniversary, the whole city lit up just for Xu Xingren. Countless Louis XIV roses descended from a helicopter, creating a dreamy, dazzling spectacle.

The mysterious person who had spent a fortune on Xu Xingren sent the invisible Mrs. Shen, who had been married for three years, straight into the spotlight.

Gu Congshu dismissed it as her acting out, until the divorce papers were placed before her.

A few months later, Xu Xingren swayed gracefully at a ball and took her place on a glittering awards stage.

A reporter asked, "People say President Gu has been making great efforts lately to mend your relationship. Is there any hope that you'll get back together?"

"Get back together?" The bright-eyed beauty smiled, looking radiant and harmless. She enunciated every word: "Impossible."

In the darkness below the stage, Gu Congshu's jaw clenched. She struggled to contain her anger, her heart as if thrown into an icy cellar.

That night, Gu Congshu pinned Xu Xingren hard against the wall of a dressing room, her eyes red.

"What do you want me to do?" she murmured, with none of her usual pride. "I was wrong. Will you come back to me?"

"When I loved you, I finally learned what it meant to ache for someone, to lose control, to suffer, to feel wronged, and to wait. I was no longer proud. I only wanted to bow my head for you."

A sweet romance, a sweet romance, a sweet romance!

The blurb will be polished further and may change. President Gu will grow up! She'll become a wonderful partner. No need to tell me if you drop the story.

Theme: Seizing control of your life means embracing all kinds of possibilities.
