After Dressing as a Woman to Bring Good Fortune to a Fake Gentleman with a Sinister Side

#Next book: Caught by the Blackened, Seemingly Proper Schemer

#Lin Chu'ai is a gorgeous, delicate cross-dressing streamer with a tiny following, willing to do anything for money.

One day, a friend offered him a lucrative gig with little upfront effort:

marry into the Jin family, the richest family in the country, and bring good fortune to their dying young son, Jin Xiangbo.

Lin Chu'ai was tempted by the money, but his conscience held him back. "I can't. They're looking for a girl."

His friend was exasperated by how dense he was and pointed to a line circulating in some group chat: "Just get married, no kids. Treat each other like brother and sister. Must be pretty, well-proportioned, and flat-chested. Isn't that you to a T?"

Staring at that long string of zeroes, Lin Chu'ai shamefully began to waver.

After his friend talked him around again and again, he dressed as a girl and went to apply at the Jin family home.

By chance, he ran into the legendary young Master Jin, who was supposedly on the verge of death.

Young Master Jin had the delicate beauty of carved jade, so handsome he seemed almost otherworldly. When he saw Lin Chu'ai sit down in a short skirt and struggle to get comfortable, he even told the housekeeper to bring him a blanket.

He was every bit the perfect gentleman, refined and proper. It was a shame he coughed three times with every step. Hearing it made Lin Chu'ai's heart soften.

So when Lin Chu'ai learned that he'd gotten the job and that his birth chart was exceptionally auspicious for Young Master Jin, he didn't think twice before going to register their marriage.

It was a win-win: he could save someone's life and make money, too.

Lin Chu'ai never expected that he'd get the money but wouldn't be able to get away.

Every night, Jin Xiangbo would climb through his window and slip into his room, kissing him again and again until he was breathless, then asking if he planned to take the money and run.

Lin Chu'ai wanted to cry. Later, he didn't want to run at all.

Who wouldn't want a life with a baby, a husband, and money?

#Upcoming book blurb:

Lin Hanqing runs into Xu Heting at the hospital. After years apart, Xu Heting is still cool and handsome, his shirt buttoned all the way to the top. He's the unattainable beauty all the young nurses can't help drooling over.

The look he gives Lin Hanqing is complicated and gloomy, but vanishes in an instant. Lin Hanqing runs as if for his life. He's afraid of Xu Heting.

Because on that chaotic night, he was the one clutching the bedsheets and crying as he begged for mercy.

...And he was the one who ran away.

Later, Lin Hanqing had almost forgotten all about it, until he saw Xu Heting waiting outside his home.

Xu Heting loosened his tie and draped it around Lin Hanqing's neck, then pushed him inside. As their lips met, Lin Hanqing heard him say,

"Lin Hanqing, if you dare run away again, I'll have you collapsing in bed."

Restraint, propriety: it was all an act.

This man was a ravenous wolf who'd devour you without leaving a bone behind.

He shouldn't have flirted with him in the first place...

Lin Hanqing didn't want to repeat the same mistake, but Xu Heting had learned his lesson after being fooled once.

No matter how much Lin Hanqing begged, he was always the one who ended up exhausted and falling asleep.

After being worn out yet again, he snapped, "If you're so capable, get me pregnant!"

Xu Heting raised an eyebrow but said nothing, only putting in even more effort than before.

A few months later, Lin Hanqing crouched by the toilet. "Ugh."

Oh no.

Also titled The City Bureau's Version of Marriage First, Love Later / Episodic / Arrogant BKing in a Suit, a Violent Cop X Fake Gentle, Scheming, Flirtatious Little White Flower

The city bureau has two legends who can't be put on the same team.

One is a financial crimes hotshot, gentle and handsome, with exceptional brains and people skills. Everywhere he goes, there's laughter, and every case he takes ends with the truth coming to light. He's the bureau's shining example.

The other is a criminal psychology consultant, sharp-tongued and a walking disaster wherever he goes. Yet his case-solving rate is astonishing, making him the bureau's nightmare.

The first time they worked together, they broke the bed in their hotel room. Xing Yufan was furious and declared that from then on, if he was on a team, Yu Feng couldn't be, and if Yu Feng was on one, he couldn't be. That's how their feud began.

As long as the two never crossed paths, everything was peaceful. Even when their teams collaborated, the subordinates handled the handoffs.

But a major serial murder case in the city forced them to become partners.

Everyone at the city bureau was on edge, afraid the two legends would tear the office apart.

Who knew that on the very first day they met, Xing Yufan would pull out a chair for Yu Feng with a scowl? After receiving a gentle smile in return, he said fiercely, "I was just worried you'd be stupid enough to pinch your hand. That's all."

Yu Feng put a piece of candy in his hand and replied amiably, "I know. Thank you."

Xing Yufan gave a snort. "Good. I'm just a kindhearted guy."

The crime investigation team: "...?"

Boss, if you're being threatened, blink twice. Don't do this, you're scaring us.

The financial crimes team was already used to it. They were even betting on how long it would take Yu Feng to win Xing Yufan over. No one could resist the charms of a gentle beauty.

Yu Feng was a practiced liar who used gentleness to deceive people. After a while, he had forgotten what he was really like. It wasn't until he got drunk on a business trip and went wild with Xing Yufan until the bed collapsed that he found a little of himself again.

But it also earned him the enmity of this colleague, supposedly straighter than steel. Xing Yufan targeted him at every turn, so Yu Feng could only keep his distance. Later, when someone told him Xing Yufan was the straightest man in the world, he wanted to laugh. He didn't know about straight, but he was definitely hard.

Yu Feng thought they'd never cross paths again, but fate forced them to become partners.

Only now, the arrogant consultant's gaze didn't seem entirely innocent...

A few notes:

1. The main character is the bottom. There will be livestream chat interactions and streamer PK challenges.

2. The top is genuinely unwell at first, but will actively seek treatment later and become a devoted husband.

3. The bottom cross-dresses as the plot requires and scams the top, though the top knows all about it.

4. There will be children later. Both are each other's first and only. Expect an uninhibited story full of melodrama and thrills!
