Complete. [If you're following updates, start from Chapter 57. It's all new content.]
Blurb:
Gu Xuan fought for seven whole years in a lightless underground chamber before, at the age of thirteen, becoming the only shadow guard at Zhao Rongzhang's side.
At the time, Zhao Rongzhang was the most honored Princess Yingrong of Great Zhou. If she wanted something, she could have the finest things in the world.
She wanted a shadow who would be obedient and useful, one whose existence would never be known to anyone else. And so the mute boy Gu Xuan came before her: after fighting his way through the bloodbath at the underground chamber, he stood there covered in wounds and on the brink of death, unable even to utter a faint groan of pain.
Later, whether the finest things around her were lost or regained, through all the ebb and flow, only little mute Gu Xuan remained, the most loyal and silent shadow at her back.
He was so loyal that when she told him to kneel on the bed and lower the curtains, all he would do was blink his bright, dark eyes, lower his head in shy embarrassment, and obediently do as she said.
Zhao Rongzhang liked to toy with his flushed ears, exposed among his messy hair, while smiling and teaching him, "Love. Got it?"
So casual.
So casual, yet Gu Xuan thought to himself that he would reclaim for her, one by one, everything that had originally belonged to her.
He would cut down every revolting maggot and ant, all those people she hated and despised.
He wanted his love to reach her so clearly that even if she one day sat upon the highest throne in the world, she would still hear it.
Even a thousand sounds could not drown it out.
Content warnings:
1. I write straight romance and only love straight romance.
2. The heroine is no saint. If you hold her to high moral standards, this may not be for you.
3. This isn't a strong, capable heroine or a female-power fantasy. It's a sweet romance for shipping the couple, with a huge amount of romance.
4. The male lead's muteness will be cured later. Male-lead fans, stay away.
Also: I have another completed novel in the same genre, Spring Breeze Through the Curtain. See my author page.
Blurb for Cling to Big Brother:
Big Brother drew a line in their dilapidated rental apartment and spread some tattered cotton stuffing and a ragged blanket on the floor. From then on, he slept there. His little sister was almost nine now. No matter how cold or afraid of the dark she was, she couldn't sleep with him anymore.
His sister still had nightmares every night. In her dreams, their adoptive parents were trapped in the black smoke and red flames of a car crash. She would wake up crying at the sound of the explosion. In the dark, she would climb out of bed and press close to her brother's shoulder, holding on tight. Safe, dependable, warm: at last, she could fall asleep.
Her brother was only thirteen himself. He had no way to help except to hold his sister tightly.
They were so close back then.
Big Brother grew up. He earned money, saved money, and drank himself senseless at business dinners. He paid his sister's tuition, bought her clothes and shoes, and gave her a thick wad of spending money.
They had long since stopped sleeping together. Big Brother had scolded the sister who used to push open his bedroom door in the middle of the night again and again. She couldn't curl up on top of him to sleep, she couldn't, not even under the covers. Ten years had passed, and his sister no longer did that.
His sister seemed to have a crush on someone. A cheerful, sunny young man.
She brought him home and served him the food Big Brother had cooked. Those eyes that always cried in front of Big Brother, how could they smile at him like that? Big Brother hid the calluses on his hands, but he couldn't hide the smell of cooking oil on his clothes.
Big Brother showered again and again, but the smell wouldn't come off. When his sister came home and opened the door, the room was pitch-black. Big Brother was soaked, sitting in a corner and trembling softly.
She reached out to touch him. His whole face was wet too.
Big Brother wept as he unbuttoned his shirt.
Shamelessly exposing himself, clumsily trying to seduce her.
Then, in agony, he clutched his collar, curled up, and hid. He could never bring himself to say, "Please don't leave me."
Big Brother had only his little sister. Even if he had everything, he still had nothing. He had only her.
But he was her brother.
* They are not blood-related. Their relationship changes from familial to romantic only after both are over eighteen and their legal kinship has been dissolved.
* The blurb may look angsty, but the actual story is 100% sweet ^_^
* Big Brother isn't some loser. He's very good at making money and takes great care of his sister. The smell of cooking oil is because he loves cooking for her so much. Even after becoming wealthy, he'll still insist on cooking for her himself for the rest of his life.
Theme: Love life
The series has started again, friends! If there is no accident, 3,000 words will be updated every day at midnight. I can't tell you in advance. Leave a few comments after reading the update. Friends 🙏 I'm lonely and cold. I need to take my medicine alone~
I have been waiting for a long time to see the ending of "Princess". During the process, I always saw that the author would be worried about the length of the article, but for us, we were worried that it was not long enough. It's been a long time since I've read an article with such a long paragraph. When I read it, because the author's writing style was so brilliant, I felt it was a different kind of enjoyment. I still regret that this story I like is too short. I even think that even if the author secretly misses a few words, I would be willing to pay for it. With a work worth just over 200,000 yuan, I saw the mutual redemption and growth of the kitten and the princess. The love was revealed between the lines. Every moment when the kitten was worried that the princess didn't like him enough, the sour taste even reached my heart through the power of words. I really like this pulling feeling. Even for the princess, I simply don't know how to describe the perfection of this character creation. I have seen too many works that were sloppy, and even some of them turned out to be OOC heroines in the end. "Princess" is an exception. I can really feel her hard work in every experience, and finally move from a small love to a grander life narrative. Although most of the plot lines in the article are briefly described in long paragraphs or in a narrative style similar to narration, the author's great writing skills can also be seen. Also, what I always want to say is that pulling is really delicious. The author should not worry about the lengthy plot. Even if there is no profound background and it is just a simple love story, we will sincerely bow to the author's writing style. 😚 😚 In the end, I really liked this kind of tug-of-war, so much so that after the kitten recovered, I felt it was a pity that a lot of stories were missing. Hehe, of course, this is just a personal opinion, because I am vulgar and not that big-minded, so I love reading romance novels.
It's so good that I finished reading it overnight... I really like the early description of the kitten's "love and hate" for the princess. He is so concerned about gains and losses, and has low self-esteem. Due to his identity and being unable to speak, it makes people feel a little bitter and painful. He will be anxious for the kitten. He is too loyal and capable. He is worthy of being the princess's best little killer. There is no reversal of dual identities. The innocent little secret guard is awesome. A kitten's loyalty always comes before liking. I was very moved when I saw it. Even when the cat felt like he was in hell, he still wanted the princess to go back. This kind of truest expression of emotion really protected the princess very well. I cried when I watched it ww The princess is brave and resourceful. Her character is so imperfect but so perfect. She is proud and arrogant, and then she knows the sufferings of the world along the way. After some training, the princess transforms amazingly. Whether it is the growth along the way or the emotional enlightenment, it is very moving. The big woman kills decisively. Her love and hate are equally clear, and there is no OOC from beginning to end. It's so amazing. The relationship between two people develops so naturally. It is soaked in details and companionship. They slowly understand each other and are slowly changed by each other. The two redeem each other and give to each other. It is a love that can be seen. After reading, I feel like I am being gently supported by warm water with just the right temperature. Finally, let's talk about the character Ren Ping. He is a fishy employee who assesses the situation. It makes people nervous several times. I can't quite guess whether it is good or bad. I find it funny when I see people not doing their best. What a wonderful arrangement. I like the author's big words! Aside from the fact that this stream of consciousness is so delicious that it makes people make mysterious ohhh noises in the middle of the night, it is also very immersed in the story itself. It is like having a camera next to it. It is real and smart. Every scene has a sense of picture and has been automatically animated in the brain.
Thanks for the great book! At first, it was a stream of consciousness that was very delicious. Later, the entanglement between the princess and the kitten really attracted me. I really, really wanted a kitten to be as beautiful and attractive as me and to be mine wholeheartedly. As the copywriter said, this is a novel with many emotional lines. The proportion of plot lines and emotional lines is just right for my taste. It is neither too boring nor too boring. It was so satisfying to finish the story. Reading it in one breath felt like taking a dip in the world of a princess. I don't like the heroine suffering, but this ordeal really highlights the princess' growth. The plot was briefly mentioned but left a deep impression on the princess, who witnessed the suffering of the people with her own eyes. She liked it very much. There is no long story to push the story to a high level, so the princess is written down to the grassroots level, from the frivolous environment of fine clothing and fine food to the common people. The kitten suffered a lot, and I felt sorry for the princess as well. The world kisses me with pain, and I repay it with broad shoulders, narrow waist, martial arts, strong, loyal, beautiful woman, who can hold anger in the hall, and be submissive to the princess who serves in the kitchen, what a kitten! The cool, white-skinned, thin-muscled, big-breasted, slender-waisted kitten that Naobu makes up is so delicious. What I am particularly boastful about is that the male protagonist is really just a secret guard kitten with pure martial arts skills. He does not participate in the plotting line or the heroine's power. He just protects the princess, takes care of the princess, and comforts the princess. Princess Kuku grows up, progresses, plays tricks and masters power, and the kitten plays a beautiful role in attracting readers' attention. I want to be a princess and want to customize my kitten. Finally, I would like to express my special thanks for a good article that enriched my Saturday morning. My biological clock made me wake up early, but I didn't want to get up. Who wouldn't want to gobble up a good article in a warm quilt in a hurry?
This is the real female standard. People who are dressed up as female fans but actually love male movies, please leave me alone.
I gave everything I had, Amen [Hold my thighs] I haven't read an article for a long time. I remembered that I hadn't read the article about the wife who lived in Tun before the college entrance examination. I read it in one go and it was still delicious! [Continued] The princess and the kitten want to live a long and happy life [Spread flowers]
I really like this book by my wife! Today I suddenly found out that it was all finished. What a surprise!!! Although the subject matter may be a bit cold, I really like it. This type of well-written article is really rare. Thank you for the wonderful article!
I finished reading it at 3 a. M. On June 7, 2026. This story is really great! The characters are described in detail, and the emotional progression is sour and sincere. It is completely the setting of my dream. Thank you for writing my dream CP! A person in love writes about a pair of real lovers. Although the subject matter is cold, people who understand it will only feel that they have been waiting for this book for more than 20 years after reading it. Thank you again!
Wow, finished reading! I think it was a sour love story in the middle period, and the princess' mouth was really tough, but it became a little sweeter in the later stages. Overall, it's pretty good-looking. [Gotou] I hope to open another book. I'll read the article like this.
In fact, I really like this book. The setting is very suitable for my xp. The author also writes very well. I feel that the ratio of the relationship line and the career line is also well controlled 🙏🙏🙏
