After I Was Married Off to the Chief of a Savage Tribe

Upcoming historical romance, The Household Slave, blurb below (a vicious woman and a vicious man tearing into each other)

Blurb for this novel

A straightforward, utterly macho man × a cold-hearted woman who isn't much sweeter with her words

When Yu Miao wakes up, she is already wearing a red bridal veil and being carried by a caravan to the northwestern frontier.

Endless yellow sands, a desert stretching beyond the horizon, strange tribal insignias, uncivilized tribes, shackled slaves, incomprehensible birdlike speech, and savage men who wear no shirts...

All of this was supposed to be endured by her older cousin. Yu Miao is merely a poor wretch who was knocked unconscious and sent here to marry in her cousin's place.

As a concubine-born daughter, she never enjoyed any wealth or glory, but she's always the first to suffer misfortune.

But since she's already here, she might as well try to survive, outlive the savage man, seize the throne, free the slaves, and lead the tribe back to take revenge on her cousin!

However, ever since Yu Miao entered the tent, she hasn't been able to leave, let alone take revenge.

Looks like she'll have to deal with the savage man first!

She boldly pressed down on his shoulder and, putting on a coquettish voice, said, "A'ao Si, let's try something different..."

Note: 1. Completely fictional, so fictional it's practically empty.

2. Not a power fantasy with a strong female lead.

Upcoming novel The Household Slave blurb:

The Li family has fallen into decline, its numbers dwindling. After her parents die one after another, Li Fuying is left all alone.

Fuying looks as delicate as a willow in the breeze, but she's willful and capricious. No one is willing to stay by her side except the household slave Li Yanxi, so she has no choice but to take him and seek refuge with her uncle, a thousand li away.

Fuying still thinks of herself as a young lady and treats Li Yanxi as a slave, beating and cursing him without a kind word.

But Li Yanxi remains meek and obedient, as loyal as ever.

Along the way, Fuying accidentally takes an aphrodisiac and has no choice but to ask Li Yanxi to help her dispel its effects.

But she still hopes to make a good marriage, so afterward she beats and curses Li Yanxi, warning him not to tell anyone.

Li Yanxi is obedient, staying silent and taking every blow and insult.

But after taking the drug, Fuying finds herself suffering an attack every few days. No medicine can cure it, and no matter how hard she tries to endure, she can only turn to Li Yanxi for help each time.

Li Yanxi is very accommodating, working without complaint and never saying too much.

Fuying is fairly pleased with him. She plans to marry her cousin at her uncle's home, then free Li Yanxi from his status as a slave and promote him to steward.

But after she becomes engaged to her cousin, the next time her symptoms flare and she seeks him out, she finds him lounging by the window, gazing at the sky with a blade of grass between his lips, completely unmoved.

"Want it? Beg me."

"You don't want to? Your future husband has already passed through the moon gate."

Neither the male nor the female lead is a pushover.

Theme: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
