My Boyfriend Isn't Human

Coming Soon: Ah? The Aloof Chief Secretary Really Likes Me?

Wen Shi's life took a sharp turn when she was fourteen. Her father died for no apparent reason, and afterward, her mother grew to hate her while her older brother became distant.

At fifteen, she quietly moved out and began living on her own.

At eighteen, Wen Shi was a senior in high school.

Strange things began happening around her.

#Nightmares That Appeared Out of Nowhere#

#Strange Footprints in the House#

#Someone Watching from the Shadows#

Wen Shi suspected she had encountered something that wasn't supposed to exist after the founding of the country.

It all stopped when she met a young man.

[The first time they met.]

The stunningly handsome Gu Jin held an umbrella over her, shielding her from the rain, while she looked utterly disheveled.

Wen Shi thought: How embarrassing.

[The second time they met.]

Wen Shi was in her garden, sighing over how quickly time flew, when she suddenly heard a scream. Barefoot and clutching a high heel, she stood ready to throw it at a moment's notice.

Instead, she saw Gu Jin holding some unknown creature in one hand, with nine enormous tails swishing behind him.

They stared at each other in silence.

Wen Shi was stunned. Why could she see his tails? And what was that thing in Gu Jin's hand?

Gu Jin panicked. This was so sudden. Would she believe him if he said the thing in his hand was jelly?

[After they got to know each other.]

One day, Wen Shi inexplicably lost control of herself. Her legs carried her automatically to the school rooftop, and just as she was about to jump, someone wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her back.

The person asked anxiously, "Are you all right?"

Hearing that familiar voice and looking at that familiar face, Wen Shi thought: Why is it you again? Why are you everywhere?

Wen Shi said weakly, "I didn't want to do that. Do you believe me?"

Before Gu Jin could answer, Wen Shi continued in a hollow voice, "Did you suddenly mutate, or am I hallucinating? Why have your hair and eyes turned silver?"

So you really aren't human.

Gu Jin: Oh no, I got too worked up. I accidentally revealed my true appearance.

A little scene

Gu Jin looked at Wen Shi innocently. "Wenwen, I don't want to study."

Wen Shi wasn't falling for it. "You don't want to study? What gives you the right? Your eighteen points in math, or your sixty in Chinese?"

At seventeen, Wen Shi finally met her god.

The heroine's family will face a reckoning, and she won't forgive them. The harm they've caused won't simply disappear.

The heroine's mother takes in a scheming adopted daughter who targets the heroine, only to get face-slapped in return.

Coming Soon: Ah? The Aloof Chief Secretary Really Likes Me?

Liu Ronggui was beautiful. People often said that if she didn't have a county magistrate for a father and a powerful family for a fiancé, countless people would be fighting to claim a woman like her.

Then, overnight, her family fell into ruin.

Her father was caught by a censor embezzling government funds and sentenced to death after the autumn harvest. Liu Ronggui, his unmarried daughter, escaped punishment.

On the very first day her family fell into trouble, a local bully showed up at their door. Seeing how beautiful Liu Yungui had become, he tried to abduct her by force.

Liu Ronggui took up a Green Dragon Crescent Blade and drove the bully away with a few mighty swings.

Just then, a letter arrived from her fiancé's family, who held office in the capital. They said they didn't mind what had happened to her family and hoped she would travel to the capital so they could go ahead with the wedding at the end of June as planned.

Liu Ronggui had heard that the censor who had punished her father had been promoted to chief secretary for his service. And the current chief secretary was her fiancé's uncle.

Her maid watched Liu Ronggui sharpening the enormous blade and asked timidly, "Miss, what are you doing? Aren't we going to the capital?"

Liu Ronggui's beautiful, peach-blossom eyes looked dazzling in the sunlight. "Of course. I'm going to the capital to cut off the head of the dog who slandered my father."

After arriving in the capital, Liu Ronggui secretly searched for a chance to go after Xie Xuejin.

The first time, she pretended to fall into the water, planning to drag him down with her when he jumped in to save her. Instead, he called a female bodyguard to pull her out.

The second time, she pretended to be drunk and homesick, then threw herself into his arms and cried. But he dodged so quickly she didn't even touch his clothes, and she ended up crashing into a tree.

The third time...

Liu Ronggui grumbled angrily, "Why is this man so hard to kill?"

She decided to go straight at him with her blade. Hesitation meant defeat, so she had to act decisively.

But before she could bring the blade down, she overheard someone outside the door and learned that Xie Xuejin wasn't the censor. She had the wrong man. What's more, Xie Xuejin had been searching for evidence that her father had been framed all along.

Liu Ronggui was overcome with embarrassment and guilt.

In the days that followed, she did everything she could to care for Xie Xuejin, hoping he would clear her father's name as soon as possible.

Xie Xuejin: She truly admires me so much. A woman, and yet she doesn't care what the world thinks.

After Liu Ronggui's father was cleared of all charges, she picked up her luggage and went straight back to her hometown.

Xie Xuejin: Fine. Just you wait. For her, I can give up being a gentleman.

Xie Xuejin was born into the prestigious Xie family. From a young age, he held himself to the highest standards of propriety. Outsiders all said that the Xie family's second son was a true gentleman.

He became the top scholar at eighteen and rose steadily through the ranks, becoming chief secretary at twenty-six.

He had assumed he would marry a woman from a similarly distinguished family and spend their lives treating each other with respect. That was until he met his nephew's fiancée.

The beautiful, vibrant young woman seemed to be secretly trying to seduce him. He had thought his heart was still, but in the end, she threw him into disarray.

He realized he had never been the proper gentleman everyone thought him to be. If he could, he wanted that young woman to keep her eyes on him alone.
