Fallen Star

Yan Xu has been a fan for six years, and she considers her idol's rival her sworn enemy. So when she sees this hot-topic, top-tier star show up at her family clinic, her first thought is to take him in. Only then can she torment him at leisure. She'll stick the acupuncture needles in extra hard and prescribe the bitterest traditional medicines. Yan Xu waits with her hands tucked into her sleeves, expecting the young star, rumored to be arrogant and domineering, to reveal his nasty nature. But as she waits, she suddenly realizes that all his nasty behavior somehow doesn't apply to her. He's unreasonably good to her, and even asks her to wait for the first snowfall. Messages coming from every direction, along with the unusual, flirtatious atmosphere between them, convince Yan Xu that Lu Chengfang will confess his feelings to her when the first snow falls. She waits a long time before the snow finally comes. On the evening it snows, she waits beneath a white ash tree, full of anticipation, her bangs damp. Only after a long time does she hear Lu Chengfang's voice: "Let's forget it." A fleeting dream of splendor, ended with no warning. Yan Xu drags her suitcase back to her little clinic, retreating into her shell. - Lu Chengfang thinks falling in love and letting go aren't equal processes. He fell for her at first sight, easily and completely. But when he pushed her away, he looked back at every step. The agony was like being tortured, as if a thousand ants were eating at his heart. The day he said he didn't love her, he slashed his wrist. The day he said he didn't miss her, he burned himself with a cigarette, as if to punish himself. Lu Chengfang doesn't want Yan Xu to get tangled up in his mess again. But he never expected her to come back anyway. She sees him at his ugliest and, driven to desperation, forces him to face her. Her stubborn eyes are red, and every word and every gesture seems to provoke him: "Do you dare to love again? Do you dare?" She's forcing him to open Pandora's box. The countless nights of darkness and disorientation he'd endured vanish in an instant. Lu Chengfang lowers all his defenses and collapses against her neck, utterly drained. Against his nature, he whimpers like a puppy. He gives in. You came to me yourself. If you have what it takes, drag me back into the light. If you don't, come to hell with me. This time, he won't let go. "My heart says 'I'm alive' 70 times a minute, But when I'm with you, it quickens a little, saying 'I love you' 110 times."

Next novel Inferior Desires Yao Chen spent years putting on airs among the elite of the capital, only to end up unceremoniously driven out of the city. A blood test report dropped a melodramatic twist into her lap. She wasn't their biological daughter. She was a fake heiress, pampered for years and raised on money. After learning the truth, Father Yao hurriedly entrusted her to the driver, making an excuse about sending her away for experience. The day she was thrown away like trash in a tiny backwater city, Yao Chen realized she might never escape this poor place. But she had to find a way out. - Liu Musheng accidentally opens a diary. The words "inferior" are scrawled across the title page in red and black ink, carved into the paper with knife marks, desperate and chaotic. He raises his cool-eyed gaze slightly and asks without thinking, "Inferior? What does that mean?" "It means I'm inferior now." The squeaky fan rattles annoyingly. Yao Chen answers offhandedly, adjusting her crooked, cheap camisole. "Then what about me?" Liu Musheng asks again. Yao Chen falls silent. What she really wants to say is, My stupid, vulgar ideas don't deserve to define you. - After dumping Liu Musheng, Yao Chen climbs into bed with a rising business tycoon. Tonight, she'll be his date at a business gala. The return of the once-ridiculed fake heiress after five years is a rare spectacle of drama in business circles. Wearing couture, Yao Chen affectionately takes the arm of the rising business tycoon. As she lifts her chin and accepts the astonished gazes of the elite, one pair of cold, arrogant eyes catches hers. Those eyes have seen all her humiliating, wretched moments, and the last of her innocent days. That night, Liu Musheng tears her couture dress, rips off the jewelry another man gave her, and bites her shoulder until it bleeds, as if letting out his anger. "Like climbing the social ladder?" "Then climb mine." I have the most inferior desires, surging day after day, never seeing the light. The protagonists aren't good people in the conventional sense. They have flaws. Both are virgins.
