[A vengeful, bickering heroine VS a gentle yet sinister hero]
Astrology blogger Wen Zhaoxue transmigrates into a book, becoming a cannon-fodder passerby in a political intrigue novel with no romance.
To survive, she disguises herself as a man and falls back on her old trick of using astrology to hoodwink people. She starts telling fortunes for "perfect matches," spinning wild stories and making things up as she goes. To her surprise, the women of the capital flock to her.
A streetwise "young rascal" like Wen Zhaoxue never expected to cross paths with the novel's male lead, Xiao Huan, a noble heir who is as radiant and refined as he is sinister and terrifying.
But then something absurd happens.
Wen Zhaoxue makes a mistake and unfortunately falls into Xiao Huan's hands. After a flurry of excuses, Xiao Huan insists she tell his fortune.
She struggles for a while, then manages to blurt out, "A strong sex drive." Xiao Huan nearly has her dragged out to be dealt with.
Thanks to the golden finger of knowing the book's plot, Wen Zhaoxue is taken on as Xiao Huan's adviser, barely managing to save her life. Protected by her male disguise, she spends every day trying to keep up with him.
Wen Zhaoxue insists on eating the best food and going to Xiangyun House to find the most beautiful girl there.
Whenever trouble strikes, she immediately grabs onto a powerful ally, wrapping her arms around Xiao Huan's waist and refusing to let go.
When Xiao Huan tells her to read to him, she reads him a story she wrote herself: Spoiling the Beloved Concubine: The Heir's Thirty-Three Days of Desire.
She thought that if she pushed him far enough, she could escape and live freely. Who knew things would take another absurd turn?
On a snowy day, Xiao Huan warmed her hands between his own.
After a trip away, he brought her a hairpin he had carved by hand.
If he didn't see her for a moment, he said he missed her.
Before she even realized when her secret identity had been exposed, Wen Zhaoxue found herself being confessed to.
After their wedding, Wen Zhaoxue remembered the second time Xiao Huan asked her to tell his fortune, this time about his marriage prospects.
She'd made something up in a hurry: in the next month or two.
She should have realized something was off right then,
because Xiao Huan gazed at her with burning eyes, his expression full of tenderness. He was clearly smiling.

As the son of the Marquis of Zhongyi, who commands the Iron Cavalry, Xiao Huan was trapped in the capital from a young age, surrounded by wolves and schemes. Before he had even come of age, poison blinded him. His life had plunged into an abyss early on, silent and dark.
When a little light and a little sound finally found their way in, he seized them and didn't want to let go.
*The hero is blind early on, but recovers later.
*Not a serious political intrigue novel.
*Happy ending, both leads' first time.
Upcoming contemporary romance, Gentle Bites. Here's the blurb. Please add it to your reading list, mwah~
[Mutual healing | A love-crazed lunatic VS a fake-good, cold-hearted woman]
(1)
Entertainment reporter Xi Tong was forcibly taken to top-tier star Lu Chengxiao's private villa after exposing his scandals.
A party was underway at the villa, with a hall full of people from inside and outside the industry, as well as prominent figures from all walks of life. Lu Chengxiao stood in the middle of them, surrounded by guests. His face was arrogant and defiant, and he carried himself with careless pride as he raised his glass to toast.
Lu Chengxiao always repaid a grudge, and Xi Tong was a reporter with no connections. Everyone expected him to humiliate her as thoroughly as possible and eagerly waited for the show.
Instead, he stared at her without blinking for a long while, then asked, "Why did you take pictures of me?"
Xi Tong said, "I'm short on money."
A long silence.
Lu Chengxiao gave a derisive laugh. "Be with me, and you'll have all the money you need."
Everyone was shocked, thinking that this was just like Lu Chengxiao: he had a particularly unusual way of humiliating people.
Xi Tong refused to back down. "Twenty million a year."
"Deal."
Everyone in the capital's social circles knew that Lu Chengxiao had found himself a woman. She had the delicate looks of a sweet little flower, pure and gentle, and was every bit as beautiful as the most popular actresses.
When word about the party got out, someone mocked Xi Tong to her face and even laid hands on her, hoping to win Lu Chengxiao's favor. Instead, he broke their finger bones one by one.

Xi Tong became Lu Chengxiao's lover, but she never shared his bed or suffered his mistreatment.
Lu Chengxiao was always away filming, so they saw each other at most once a month.
The most intimate thing they ever did was hug.
Before leaving each time, Lu Chengxiao would hold her so tightly it was as if he wanted to meld her into his bones. He would say, "Don't leave."
Sometimes, "Don't leave" would become "Don't leave me again."
Xi Tong had given nothing in return. Instead, she rose steadily thanks to Lu Chengxiao. In just six months, she went from a newspaper office to a TV station, and from a reporter to a news anchor.
She thought it was time to end their relationship, so she returned the twenty million. She meant to leave without looking back, but when she opened the door, she saw Lu Chengxiao rushing toward her, his face dark with fury.
"Xi Tong, you dumped me once. You want to do it a second time?"
He rushed forward without a thought and kissed her like a madman.
In the dizzying, passionate kiss, Xi Tong tasted something salty.
Lu Chengxiao was crying.
*
"At seventeen, we were trapped in the same mire. I swore I'd give you all my light and warmth."
"At twenty-seven, I stand in the brightest spotlight, peeling back my rotten heart. The only untouched spot, right at its center, is filled with your name."
*The heroine suffers a severe brain injury and loses her memory, but will recover.
*Happy ending, both leads' first time.
Theme: Who says women are inferior to men?
Wuhu! Congratulations on the ending. I enjoyed watching it.
The story is good, but a lot of personal pronouns are used incorrectly, which is a bit embarrassing.
How can I put it this way? The heroine is really fooled every time and has no defense at all.
I was fascinated by it in the middle of the night T_T
What is the rhythm of this article?
It's so beautiful. I urge you to update more~
The heroine fights to the death not to reveal that she is a girl.
The hero's eyes will get better soon. Once his eyes are healed, he can see what his wife looks like, hahaha
So... The heroine's fortune-telling purely relies on horoscopes? I can accept the fortune-telling method of heavenly stems and earthly branches, after all, everyone's calculation is different. But is it too hasty to just look at the horoscope? No matter what year it is, it's too broad to just look at the zodiac sign. In my superficial understanding, even if it's the same zodiac sign but on different days and times, the personality and destiny should be different. But the heroine is so famous and it feels like the calculation is very accurate.
This male protagonist is so good!
