She was the poison that could save his life, and he was already terminally ill.

[My next novel, "Eternal Night's Descent," is opening soon. Please add it to your favorites! It's my favorite kind of male-lead-angst-and-madness story again, though the heroine will have a hard time at first. Neither lead is a good person, so please don't read if that's not your cup of tea!]
A morally unscrupulous con woman vs. a cold-blooded man who's no good either
Blurb One:
At the main entrance of the Golden Hall, Qi Si looked out the car window at the intimate couple and suddenly felt like a complete cuckold.
Just two hours ago, she'd been pouting and acting sweet on the phone, telling him she was tired and wanted to rest. Now she'd given him a surprise like this!
Qi Si suddenly wondered how Shi Liangyue would talk her way out of it when she saw that he'd prepared a similar "surprise" for her. Would she use that clever little tongue of hers to argue her way out, or would she burst into tears, fall to her knees, and admit she was wrong?
But when he spotted Shi Liangyue's fingers interlaced with the man's, he suddenly stopped wondering. He no longer cared what excuses she'd make.
He never imagined that he, Qi Si, would one day be played like a fool by someone so despicable.
How utterly stupid. He was so stupid that he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"M-Mr. Qi..." The secretary had never seen the usually composed, dignified, and refined CEO wear such a terrifying expression. It made his spine go cold.
"Run into them." His tone was still low and calm, but every word was icy.
"W-What?"
The secretary hadn't understood. Qi Si's voice was so calm, as if he'd casually ordered something perfectly ordinary. But the CEO of Huanyu never spoke without a reason, so... The secretary glanced nervously at the driver. He didn't dare refuse, but he didn't dare actually do it either.
Qi Si's cold gaze swept over the front seat. Suddenly, he reached out and pushed the car door open.
Two words shot through the secretary's mind: "We're doomed!!"
Blurb Two:
To make a living in the Qi family of Yuncheng was, in outsiders' eyes, like winning the lottery in a past life.
Shi Liangyue had once naively thought so too. But she had entered the Qi family under shameful circumstances, so she never got to enjoy the life others envied. Even living like a normal person was beyond her reach.
When a solid-wood table more than three meters long slammed into her and made her vomit bile, she looked at the young man who hopped onto the tabletop and sauntered toward her with lazy disdain. All she could do was clench her teeth and swallow her bitterness.
The young man looked down at her. His eyes held not a trace of emotion. "You were born low. You need to know your place."
Shi Liangyue sneered inwardly. She knew she deserved all this. Someone like her, who had never been favored by fate, would have to endure tens or even hundreds of times more hardship and pain than others to get what she wanted.
So she held no grudge. This was her choice.
But one day, she too would stand on that table and look down on others.
Note: The leads are not related by blood. The male lead will go mad. There are no good people.
Coming soon: "She Crossed the Line"_______________________________________
In Pan Xi's investigation memo, a few lines were highlighted: Zhou Zhengan, male, 27, unmarried, wealthy family, young and promising. No more personal information was available.
Compared with the others, whose private lives could fill several books, his seemed simple, even dull. His academic record, on the other hand, was dazzling enough to leave her speechless. His awards from childhood through his doctorate alone filled five full pages.
Pan Xi wasn't sure she could win someone like him over.
Her fingers gently traced the handsome profile in the photograph. Her lips slowly curved into a smile, though her eyes remained cold. What if she failed?
After her deeds were exposed, Pan Xi gave up trying to hide and faced the silent Zhou Zhengan without fear.
"In that case, let's just break up."
"We'll go look at wedding dresses tomorrow."
Pan Xi looked a little taken aback. "Are you crazy?"
The usually gentle and mild-mannered Chief Procurator Zhou lifted his head. His handsome, open features were touched by a chilling smile.
"Xiao Xi, you can't treat people like this. You don't just throw them away after you've used them. Heaven will punish you."
Pan Xi had never seen Zhou Zhengan like this before. He was so unfamiliar that she felt a chill.
Unfortunately, by the time she realized it, it was already too late.
Theme: Strive to improve yourself.
How can I put it this way? After reading it, I couldn't stop reading it at the beginning, but then I gradually felt overwhelmed. The first part was so well written, but the second part of the story made me feel like I was getting revenge. The male protagonist was not there when the female protagonist was in the most difficult and most needed time. It can be said that the source of the female protagonist's bullying was him, and the second female protagonist could easily take away his mobile phone and subdue him. Anyway, I became more and more speechless, the rhythm became faster and faster, and I completely collapsed.
I feel like Tao Yan's good intentions are hard to deny. The heroine's family was ruined and her future was ruined. Doesn't it deserve a side story?
I came here from the neighbor's heart, purely because I wanted to see what happened next. Fortunately, there is no he in this world. Jinggou indirectly caused the death of the family next door, and he still hopes that Shengsheng can forgive him. He really died.
The male protagonist said that he did not receive a call from the female protagonist that year, but when the female protagonist was bullied, she still called the male protagonist, and it was the female protagonist who answered the call! The heroine mainly looks for the male protagonist, and the female supporting character sends a message to the male protagonist. The male protagonist also says, "Tell her to get lost" (although this is deliberately designed by the female supporting character). I don't understand what the male protagonist meant when he said to the female protagonist that he was confused about the phone call many years later and said he didn't receive the call. He also said, "Would everything have been different if I had received a call from you back then?" But it was clearly the male lead who told the female lead to get lost on the phone, so this was the call he received, right? I really don't understand
In fact, I prefer to watch a sniffing dog and a jingu dog break off their heads. Hahahaha, it's really exciting, but there's too little written about it. The two of them have been grudges for a long time, why don't they start a fight?
It's so disturbing that I'm about to collapse. I can't stand it.
I want to see Wen and Jing go to grandma's house with their wives to celebrate the New Year, doing housework together and killing pigs and chickens.
It's really rare. I really like this book. I read this book elsewhere and finally finished reading it in two days. The heroine is so strong, like a small yellow flower blooming in the snow in early spring. She blooms with her own color no matter how difficult the growing environment is. I really love her.
After reading it, I have a heart attack. What will happen if I write more? That's it. What do you want me to say? It's undeniable that this article is really beautiful, but it's just too little. If you write me 1,000 chapters, I can finish reading 10,000 chapters. In the end, all I can say is that you should write more for me in the next one. I begged her to read it.
I came from my neighbor's heart. When I compared the male protagonists of the two books, Wen Yu simply ranked higher than me. The male protagonist of this book is really cheap and bad.
