They were closer than real siblings. Although Jiang Shen was sickly, he was handsome, and his smile was especially gentle. As a result, he had always been popular with girls. Whenever Ming Rao fell for someone, she would tell him and ask him to be her strategist. Jiang Shen would always smile gently and help her come up with plans, never growing tired of it. People say that pursuing a man is as easy as breaking through a layer of gauze. But Ming Rao had never once succeeded in winning over someone she liked. The person she had cherished as her white moonlight even confessed to and proposed to another woman right in front of her. On the day her white moonlight proposed, Ming Rao drank herself into a stupor. The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she felt, and on impulse, she confessed to Jiang Shen. When she woke up the next day, Ming Rao discovered that she had somehow gotten married. She stared at Jiang Shen in disbelief. "I was drunk yesterday. Why didn't you stop me?" Jiang Shen smiled gently and amiably, his clear, cool voice tinged with helplessness. "What do you think?" The man wore a shirt and trousers. His white shirt was buttoned neatly to the very top, making him look refined and restrained. His pale, handsome face showed signs of illness, giving him the unmistakable air of a frail young master. Ming Rao remembered forcing Jiang Shen to register their marriage the day before and suddenly felt like a terrible person. Her face filled with guilt. "How about we get a divorce?" The refined man, who had been smiling like a gentle spring breeze just moments ago, suddenly looked terrifyingly dark-eyed. It was as if he had become someone else, his air turning sinister and cold. He walked over and slowly bent down, bracing one hand beside her and trapping her between himself and the sofa. "Didn't you say you'd only love me from now on?" ──You are the one I have wanted for so long.

[Upcoming: "Only You Can Captivate Me" is open for follows~] Socially anxious beauty manga artist x gentle, obsessive man with a hidden dark side Wen Ning is socially anxious and a popular girls' manga artist. She hit her peak with her debut, and almost every one of her works has been successfully adapted for film or television. As the value of her copyrights soared, Wen Ning began to hit a creative block. Having cut ties with her family long ago and with no friends, Wen Ning thought it over for a long time before deciding to ask her editor for help. Wen Ning's editor, Chi Yan, was an exceptionally gentle man. He was also incredibly patient, and the editor she had worked with the longest. Wen Ning thought the main reason for her creative block was that she had never been in love. Usually timid, she summoned her courage and asked Chi Yan, who seemed both gentlemanly and gentle, to date her for a year. In a private room, the man wore a crisp suit, his long legs crossed and his hands held together elegantly in front of him. He looked refined and restrained. Chi Yan was silent for a long time after hearing Wen Ning's request. Understanding, Wen Ning stood and apologized. "I'm sorry. I was too forward. Please forget what I said." She turned calmly. "I'll ask someone else..." Before she could finish, the man grabbed her wrist. His elegant brows and eyes curved slightly, and his gentle voice held a hint of helplessness. "You don't need to ask anyone else. We'll date." After dating for a year, Wen Ning successfully overcame her creative block. As it happened, the time limit they had agreed on had also come to an end. In the same private room, Wen Ning once again summoned her courage and asked to break up. "Mr. Chi, thank you for taking care of me this past year." Wen Ning turned to leave. But he grabbed her wrist again. In the year they had been together, the handsome man had always been good-tempered. Now his eyes were frighteningly dark. A flicker of astonishment appeared in Wen Ning's calm eyes. The next second, the man pressed her down onto the sofa. His hand covered hers. His long, pale fingers slowly slipped between hers, interlacing their fingers so tightly that not a sliver of space remained. Chi Yan bent down leisurely and kissed her fingers one by one. A deeply brooding emotion filled his eyes. "Ningning, who said you could leave me?" Wen Ning finally realized that her handsome, good-tempered editor might not be as harmless as he seemed. [Upcoming: "Exclusive Summer" is open for follows~] Bright, uninhibited heiress x refined, self-possessed gentleman 1. Sheng Xia was known throughout Beicheng's upper circles as a stunning, icy beauty, with skin as smooth as jade and an air of untouchable elegance. On the eve of her engagement, her fiance fled to be with his white moonlight. On her way to the Xie family to call off the engagement, Sheng Xia got into a car accident and suffered memory loss. Her personality changed completely, and she mistook Xie Junci, who had come to visit her, for her fiance. Xie Junci was a prominent figure in the business world. He kept a low profile, but was decisive and ruthless in his dealings. No one in all of Beicheng dared to offend him lightly. Yet when the refined and distinguished Xie Junci arrived at the hospital, Sheng Xia rushed into his arms and demanded a kiss the moment she saw him. The situation quickly spiraled out of control. Sheng Xia continued to say shocking things. "Third Brother, why did you take so long to come?" Everyone: "!!!" Everyone thought Sheng Xia was doomed. Who could have guessed that Xie Junci, her fiance's uncle and the head of the Xie family, would catch the beauty in his arms? The beauty mark beneath the man's narrow, alluring eyes was cool and captivating, while his handsome face was covered in frost. Xie Junci knitted his brows slightly. "Who's your Third Brother?" Sheng Xia blinked. "You are. You're my Third Brother, Xie Junci." Xie Junci was silent for a moment. "Don't call me Third Brother from now on. Call me Brother Junci." 2. After recovering her memories, Sheng Xia was so mortified she wanted to bury herself on the spot. The person she liked was her childhood friend, the young master of the Xie family, with whom she had been engaged since childhood. Even if she was angry enough to call off the engagement, she could never like a man like Xie Junci: meticulous, proper, aloof, and utterly devoid of romance. And yet, the man she thought was cold-hearted, desireless, and dull had bought her countless treasures and pieces of jewelry while she was suffering from amnesia. He had even given her a villa, a luxury yacht, a private island... Sheng Xia even found a video on her phone of the two of them kissing on the island. In the video, she jumped into the man's arms and clung to him, demanding a kiss. Meanwhile, Xie Junci, whom she remembered as cool-eyed and stern, gazed at her with tenderness and adoration. The stern, terrifying uncle in her memories... seemed completely different from the man she had imagined. 3. Having finally seen the light, the young Mr. Xie came back to Sheng Xia's home from far away, ready to ask her to get back together. He never expected his uncle, Xie Junci, to be the one who opened the door. Xie Junci wore a bathrobe, the beauty mark at the corner of his eye still carrying a hint of sensuality. He was bewitching and alluring. "Your aunt is asleep. Whatever you need, tell me tomorrow." ──No one knew that Xie Junci had gone to great lengths to scheme for so long, all for the sake of having Sheng Xia to himself.
