Su Yan'er had always thought she was the most pitiful person in the household, until the day the master brought home a beautiful, enchanting young man.
She heard that the master abused him every night, leaving him covered in all kinds of wounds.
By chance, Su Yan'er encountered the boy and found the courage to offer him some medicine. His handsome eyes were dark and gloomy, yet his smile was exceptionally warm and gentle.
"Thank you, Madam."
Later, her husband's entire household was slaughtered, and she alone was spared.
The boy from back then turned out to be the heir apparent, notorious throughout the capital for his cruelty and wickedness. Now he held her chin and kissed the tears from the corners of her eyes...
"Please, let me go..." Terrified, she bit her lip and begged timidly.
He lowered his gaze, his peerlessly handsome face, and gently stroked her cheek. With a soft laugh, he said, "All right."
(PS: Both leads are sexually inexperienced; the male lead is a little unhinged.)
Next book: A gentle beauty and a ruthless wolf of a general. Please add it to your collection.
Blurb: Gu Xixi was abandoned by her fiance. When she and his cousin were kidnapped by bandits, he didn't hesitate for a second before choosing to save his alluring, delicate cousin.
In the end, the famous General Ye Chen, known as the God of Death, happened to pass by and rescue her.
From then on, Gu Xixi's reputation was ruined. On top of that, her fiance's cousin framed and slandered her, and her fiance mercilessly destroyed her family.
With nowhere else to turn, Gu Xixi ran into Ye Chen.
The gentle beauty held back her distress and pleaded movingly, "General Ye, please help my family."
The tall, handsome, rugged man gazed at her with dark eyes and a smile at his lips. "Miss Gu, if I help your family, what can you give me?"
Gu Xixi's little face turned pale, and she bit down hard on her lower lip.
No one knew that she had been kidnapped by bandits that day and had nearly lost her chastity.
And she would always remember how he held her by the waist and said in a husky, amused voice, "Miss Gu, what's so good about a fiance like that? Why not come with me instead?"
Ye Chen was intrigued by this gentle, lovely young woman at first sight. When he saw her crying like a flower in the rain, he knew that she would belong to him alone for the rest of his life.
(PS: The male lead is Ye Chen. The heroine has no affection whatsoever for her scumbag fiance. Sweet romance!!)
Theme: Try to look on the bright side.
