It's complete! While I'm at it, here's a preview of my next novel: a modern romance, "The Real Young Master Became a Caregiver for a Disabled Tycoon and Found His Happy Ending"!
[Seems adorably clueless but is actually sharp and clear-eyed, a beautiful little schemer on the bottom x scheming, reserved, aloof, devoted general on top]
To resist being married off to an imperial prince he'd never even met, Wen Qiao fled the capital planet in the dead of night.
But his spaceship crashed on a remote planet. The pampered young master nearly lost his life, and now he was about to strip in front of a strange alpha!?
Wen Qiao couldn't stand the masked man's appraising gaze. He was just about to throw caution to the wind when the other man slapped a pair of heavy handcuffs on him.
Wen Qiao: ??? Entrapment?
Just like that, he was taken back to the capital planet aboard the battleship of the Empire's top commander, General Huo Lanxi, under the pretext of being a wayward Omega.
Wen Qiao, clenching his tiny fists as he hurried to make his escape: You really didn't have to be so nice.
After taking care of business, Huo Lanxi instructed his adjutant, “Send him to the Omega Protection Association.”
Adjutant: You didn't see that coming, did you, General? He's already run off with someone else!
·
Wen Qiao's attempts to escape his arranged marriage kept falling apart because of this general.
He took an under-the-table job to earn money, and Huo Lanxi caught him red-handed.
He bought a spaceship ticket to flee, and Huo Lanxi shut down the spaceport.
His first heat hadn't even arrived, yet this alpha had already marked him.
This time, though, Wen Qiao did it willingly.
Like every alpha in the Empire, if Huo Lanxi reached a certain age without bonding with an Omega, he would descend into a frenzy. Despite his many honors, he lost all dignity, becoming like a raging beast.
The Omega was refined, beautiful, and impeccably mannered. Facing the frenzied alpha, he showed no fear, instead holding Huo Lanxi tightly and gently stroking his back. “Don't be afraid. It's okay.”
The usually cold alpha could no longer hold back. Huo Lanxi asked in a hoarse voice, “What do you like about the person in your heart?”
Wen Qiao's mind was hazy. He paused, then mumbled, “He saved my life.”
Huo Lanxi smiled. “Oh? But I've saved your life too, many times.”
·
Huo Lanxi had another identity unknown to the public: as the second son of the imperial family, he was the most promising heir.
Faced with the marriage alliance imposed on him, Huo Lanxi had never given his consent.
Not long afterward, Huo Lanxi attended the engagement banquet as a prince and announced in front of everyone that he was calling off the engagement. Amid the crowd's astonishment, he hurried away.
Wen Qiao was missing, and he was worried sick.
Meanwhile, Wen Qiao had been forcibly taken by his family and made to attend the engagement banquet. But when he saw his fiance walk onto the stage, he froze.
The moment their eyes met, a stream of comments floated above them:
Wait, is it too late to change my mind now?
Reader's Guide:
1. One-on-one romance, happy ending. A ridiculous story built on one coincidence after another, with the leads not knowing each other.
2. The bottom is physically weak but strong-willed and knows how to stand up for himself.
3. Chapter titles don't indicate the timeline.
---- Coming Soon: "The Real Young Master Became a Caregiver for a Disabled Tycoon and Found His Happy Ending" ----
Yan Xiao was a lowly wage worker who got up early and stayed up late to save money for his family's medical bills.
The good news: One day, he was suddenly told that he was the real young master of the wealthy Lin family, lost to them years ago!
The bad news: Once he was brought back into the family, he had to marry Lu Yunzhen, the second son of the Lu family!
Lu Yunzhen was said to be cold and arrogant, with a violent temper. To top it off, he couldn't get around without a wheelchair.
Lin Zhilu, the fake young master who was supposed to marry him, was completely unwilling. So the Lin family decided to kick their own emotionless son out to form the marriage alliance, tricking Yan Xiao into thinking he was only going to the Lu home to help take care of someone.
Yan Xiao: Even young masters from rich families have to work as caregivers!? But the pay is incredible. Taking care of someone? That's my specialty, hehe!
Three months later...
Yan Xiao: No more hehe.
Yan Xiao had to admit the rumors were true. This was the most chaotic side job he'd ever had. He'd never met a more petty and fussy employer than Lu Yunzhen!
*
Once again, late at night, Yan Xiao was being sent back and forth until he was dizzy. In the middle of his frustration, he noticed some dirt on the exoskeleton in the corner of the bedroom, the one that helped Lu Yunzhen get around. He was just about to go over to it.
Lu Yunzhen suddenly interrupted him. “Yan Xiao.”
Yan Xiao paused and turned around. “What now, Young Master!?”
There wasn't a trace of remorse on Lu Yunzhen's face. His tone was cool. “Get out. If you keep me from sleeping, you're dead.”
Yan Xiao didn't leave. He brought over the first-aid kit, pulled back Lu Yunzhen's blanket, and skillfully disinfected his injured leg, using a cotton swab to carefully wipe away the pus. “Tell me if it hurts, okay? I'll be gentler.”
“You...” Lu Yunzhen was momentarily at a loss for words. He turned his head, the tips of his ears secretly reddening. “Don't think this means I'll put up with living with you for the rest of my life.”
Yan Xiao: Good heavens, you want to buy out my whole life too!
*
At a banquet three months later, everyone was waiting to laugh at the unloved real young master of the Lin family and the crippled second son of the Lu family. Instead, they saw a powerful military official bowing and scraping behind Lu Yunzhen!
Everyone: ???
It turned out that the mysterious leader of the Seventh Division, who wielded enormous power, was none other than the second young master of the Lu family!
Lin Zhilu regretted it so much he could have kicked himself. He was on his way to the restroom to fix his appearance before currying favor with Lu Yunzhen when he stumbled upon the second young master of the Lu family personally lifting Yan Xiao onto the sink.
Yan Xiao sprang up, trying to run, but Lu Yunzhen pulled him back into his arms. “There's a limit to playing hard to get. Are you trying to run away from our wedding?”
Yan Xiao's eyes widened in shock. What wedding? Don't make things up!!
Theme: Have the courage to fight injustice, and life will be brighter after the storm.
