She Has Ulterior Motives [Infinite]

New work "The Real Heiress Only Wants to Be a Couch Potato" is now available.

Blurb 1:

The boss of a Republican-era haunted-house instance has recently acquired a pretty, obedient little wife. Unlike the other players, who see the boss as a vicious beast, the little wife seems naive and innocent, as if she has no idea how terrifying this ghost is. Every day, she speaks softly and sweetly, charming the instance boss into a good mood.

Once the boss is in a good mood, she plans to make sure her little wife clears the instance, since a weak and helpless human might hurt herself just by picking up a knife, and would only get bullied by the other ghosts.

But just as the instance is about to end, the little wife drops her weak facade. All those sweet words become blades, aimed at the boss's only weakness. In the end, the instance boss becomes an item in a human's hands!

The "weak and helpless" human: Nuan Nuan, ghosts need to stay safe when they go out, too.

Xia Yingnuan really wants to find a chance to kill the human who deceived her. But the rules of the game prevent her from harming the other woman. What she can't understand is why, now that she has dropped her act and Xia Yingnuan is no longer worth deceiving, the human still keeps whispering words of love in her ear.

I was simply following my instincts.

Reader's Guide:

1. Updates follow the rankings before VIP status, then daily updates afterward. Hiatuses if needed.

2. The protagonists aren't perfect. This is my take on an infinite-flow story, with lots of original worldbuilding.

3. The setting is not all-female. Please don't read if that bothers you.

4. Please don't give writing advice or start arguments. Report personal attacks. There are countless great stories on Jinjiang, and there's one for everyone. If you come across something you dislike, please stop reading. No need to announce that you're dropping the story.

Blurb 1:

One day, Tao Yitong of the Special Incident Management Bureau gets an assignment. A colleague has received intelligence that someone in the Jiang family of Haishi may be involved in a case concerning a cannibalistic demon that the bureau has been investigating for over twenty years. To follow the clues and find the mastermind, her superior packs her off to live with the biological parents she has just found: the Jiang family.

The atmosphere in the Jiang household is very strange. When she first returns, it seems everyone bears her some ill will. Good. Tao Yitong doesn't like them much either. But for the sake of the assignment, she has to calm her fiery temper every day and remind her hands not to accidentally hang them from a lamppost before the mission is complete.

A week later, the fake heiress returns. Tao Yitong hides her sharp edges and pretends to be a poor little thing neglected by both parents. But she seems to overdo it, because the fake heiress looks at her with increasingly tender affection. She gives her shares and spending money, and takes care of everything from meals to clothes to a place to live.

Nearly turned into a couch potato, Tao Yitong is jolted awake by her colleagues' resentful reminders. Jiang Zitan has been silently eroding our will! This is terrifying!

Even more terrifying, there are always strange people telling her that Jiang Zitan will leave sooner or later and can't protect her forever. Tao Yitong doesn't need protecting, but whenever she thinks about the first half of that sentence, she tosses and turns, unable to sleep.

Until one day, a strange book falls out of the melodramatic story of the real and fake heiresses her colleague has brought her. She flips to the ending, where it says the two heiresses live happily together...

Tao Yitong (shocked.jpg): What a great book! It's worth putting into practice!

Blurb 2:

Jiang Zitan accidentally learns the truth about her birth. She is not her parents' biological daughter, and the real heiress has been living away from home for over twenty years, suffering through many hardships.

The real heiress is well-behaved and sensible, but the atmosphere at home grows increasingly strange. Her parents are very cold toward their biological daughter and even seem to despise her for some unknown reason.

Anyone would eventually develop psychological problems in such a suffocating environment, so Jiang Zitan simply brings the other woman to live with her. She wants to return everything the Jiang family owns to the real heiress. She just never expected the poor little real heiress to be so clingy and good at acting cute, making her give in a little more each time.

The real heiress is adorable. She wouldn't mind raising her as a little sister for the rest of her life.

But she never expected to become a target in the dark. People coveting her flesh set up a trap and invited her to a banquet, where she sees another side of the world. Ghosts and demons revel in the night, and she is to become food for the monsters they keep.

Just as she is backed into a corner with nowhere left to run, her little sister, who should not be there, suddenly appears behind her and covers her eyes. She hears ghosts being torn apart, and something chewing beside her ear.

Her friend screams and calls it a monster.

They say monsters eat people.

Fangs that do not belong to a human brush her delicate neck. Jiang Zitan makes no move to defend herself, instead embracing the "monster" with complete trust.

She believes Tao Yitong won't hurt her. But if Tao Yitong needs flesh and blood, then she will provide it herself.
