[My next novel, The Scheming Beauty's Rise, is coming soon! A scheming beauty VS a cold young master, an aloof flower coming down from his pedestal + a battle for her affections. Here's the blurb. Please add it to your collection!]
Ji Hongsheng was born into a marquis's family and had always been aloof and proud. After someone set him up, he developed a leg condition, and his personality grew even more eccentric.
The old madam took pity on him and specially assigned a personal maid to care for him around the clock.
In the flower hall, the maid was cautious and poised. Compared with the vulgar people in the household, she was just barely tolerable.
But the tiny hint of long-nursed scheming desire in her eyes was something he truly disliked.
The old madam said the girl was sensible and wouldn't upset him.
That night, however, Ji Hongsheng suddenly awoke to an unusual warmth beside him.
The maid's fingertips slid over his waist, and her soft, teasing voice slipped into his ears.
"Young Master, I'll give you myself, and you give me money and power. Think it over. Is it a good deal?"
She had come to climb the social ladder, but the young master wouldn't give in, no matter what she tried. Even when she was sitting in his arms, their lips barely a hair's breadth apart, she never managed to put her more intimate seduction techniques to use.
Seeing how things stood, Wu Qingyuan gathered her gold, silver, and valuables, preparing to slip away under cover of night. But the young master stopped her. "Where are you running off to? Who are you going to find?"
The fastidious young master came out in the rain, his hair damp, his robe hem muddy, and dirt and gravel caught around the wheels of his wheelchair. He had hurried so much that he was practically about to fall out of it.
Wu Qingyuan smiled. "If Young Master can't appreciate what makes me special, surely someone else can appreciate me."
The young master replied coldly, "I had no idea that the personal maid in my arms was the very woman my so-called someone else has been longing for, his not-yet-wed wife!"
Wu Qingyuan stepped past his attempt to stop her. "I never give my heart to just one person. Unless Young Master can offer me the security I need?"
Behind her came the sound of the wheelchair breaking apart. She thought he would make a fool of himself, but he rose deftly to his feet and strode toward her. Gripping her wrist, he spoke with conviction:
"Can the money and power you want count as security? If that's not enough, why don't we go together right now? It'll be the perfect chance to tell that dear friend you keep thinking about: Your wife belongs to me!"
Please don't!
That man is his own older brother!

[Novel Blurb]
There was only one thing Ninglong regretted more than anything in her life: not poisoning Guan Huaisheng into complete silence. Then he wouldn't have been able to cruelly carve up her body with his words, speaking with such brazen disrespect.
*
Ninglong had a face like a white lotus and a heart like a snake. Noble families competed to seek her hand in marriage.
At first, her interest in Guan Huaisheng, the new servant in her household, was purely accidental. He was a lowly, humble mute, but for some inexplicable reason, he stirred her pity.
She loved Guan Huaisheng's silent manner and thought she had found a way to amuse herself in her dull days.
Until she caught him touching himself as he stared at her portrait, his expression lovestruck as he murmured in a hoarse voice.
So he had only been pretending to be deaf and mute.
Ninglong personally poured him a cup of poisoned wine, coldly watching him writhe on the ground in agony.
She curled her lips into a smile. "Instead of pretending to be mute, you should make it real and become truly mute."
*
Later, a new dynasty was established. The Ning family lost its power, and the entire family was on the verge of execution. At their darkest hour, a benefactor came to the prison to help them.
The benefactor promised to protect the Ning family with casual indifference, on one condition.
He bent down, lowering himself to her. With fingertips roughened by calluses, he lifted Ninglong's chin, a profound look swirling in his eyes.
"I only want her."
Ninglong's haggard face filled with shock. This man was Guan Huaisheng, the very person she had once tormented in every way and cast aside without a second thought!
Guan Huaisheng brought her a cup of wine and poured it down her throat as if it were retribution.
Through tear-blurred eyes, she heard him sneer, "How does it feel to be abandoned by the one you love most?"
Guan Huaisheng took her out of the cage, only to imprison her in another deep abyss.
*
To Guan Huaisheng, Ninglong was a precious pearl he could never touch. And yet, in the end, that pearl fell into his arms.
Behind the curtains, he kissed the beautiful woman's lotus face, a profound look swirling in his eyes.
"You aren't running away. That must mean you still have feelings for me, right?"
Ninglong angrily slapped him, but he treated it as flirtation.
She did want to run away. But every time she tried, he caught her.
Gradually, she found herself realizing that his feelings for her were sincere.
◎ Our status may separate us, but you can only fall in love with me.

Hmm... This book does add the wrong setting of Es Amu. Because the review could not cover the neck below, I could only reveal it in a few words. However, at the same time, I can see a large number of third-person perspectives of the male protagonist concealing and teasing the female protagonist, so the perception is still that of abuse of women. The addition of this setting does not reduce the female protagonist's sense of frustration. However, this is in line with the nature of the story of rape and robbery... And as time goes by, this setting no longer has any sense of existence. Now the heroine is controlled by the hero at will, and she can do whatever she wants... Maybe it's because I've been reported and I don't dare to write about it. Well, I think many people who like to watch rape and plunder prefer male protagonists. It's reasonable to suspect that some...
I hope I can knock my eldest brother off the second time, it's so disgusting
Funny family, Father, wife, your son went for plastic surgery, did you see it? Little sister, let me rub, rub, rub, change it back for me It's okay for me, it's the same when chasing my wife. Wife, I want to kill you
The male protagonist is so mucky, hahaha
The small one makes me very angry, the large one I will come to save you right away
I can see again that the female protagonist has a fetish for S, but she is actually a sub on the inside, while the male protagonist is the opposite. She has a physical fetish on M and is a dom on the inside. How can this setting, which is originally called a female Esquire and a male Aimu, still look so strange? I have never been able to understand dom men and sub women...
After clicking a few more chapters, I felt that the author hated the heroine of this book. As a reader, I really felt that the heroine was written into a strange joke by the author.
The author should take a big break.
What a wonderful fate
I think the rhythm is very good. So far, it fits the character and there are no major crashes. The author, wife, doesn't need to be too anxious. Come on.
