Upcoming novels

Upcoming 1: "The Perfect Ending to an Abandoned Novel"

[A lighthearted, sweet story]

The summer after his second year of college, Shang Min went to visit his maternal grandmother. His aunt would occasionally complain that the trumpet vine next door had grown too lush, creeping over the wall and spreading into their yard. They had to sweep it up every morning. It was such a nuisance.

He paid it no mind until the day he was pruning the trumpet vine and glanced over the wall, catching sight of a man reading beneath the grape trellis in the yard.

The man wore black-rimmed glasses, his hair obscuring his brows and eyes. Quiet and still, he reminded Shang Min of the dandelion growing in a corner of his grandmother's yard.

Later, he learned the man's name by chance, and only then realized that the world he had always taken for reality was nothing but an abandoned, angst-filled romance novel on some website.

The man was the novel's protagonist. Because of his health, he rarely went out and had shut himself away in the house, which was covered in trumpet vines.

One rainy day, a strange man climbed into his yard and discovered his physical secret. From then on, the man became trapped in an emotional entanglement he couldn't escape, ultimately ending his miserable life by suicide.

People have mixed opinions about trumpet vines, with criticism outweighing praise. Even Qi Yuanyi thought of himself as a trumpet vine in the yard, unwanted and disliked.

Until one day, a young man knocked on his door and asked with a smile:

"The trumpet vines in your yard are beautiful. May I come in and admire them?"

Content warnings:

1. 20-year-old gong x 24-year-old shou

2. The protagonists are imperfect, and so is the author's writing.

3. Both protagonists are hopelessly lovestruck.

(P.S. In real life, love isn't the most important thing. Whether or not you have it, live the way you want to.)

4. When they meet, Xiao Qi has a hidden health condition. He has surgery later.

Upcoming 2: "The Sickly Villain Gives Up"

Blurb:

Yan Lishu was born lowly and skilled at currying favor. He schemed and plotted his whole life, and was on the verge of finally rising to power.

But evildoers never get a good ending. The protagonist eventually makes a dazzling entrance.

Everything Yan Lishu did merely paved the way for someone else.

Returned to the beginning, what schemes? What revenge?

Yan Lishu: Should I break this leg, or this one...? If my legs are crippled, I can eat and drink without working until I die, right?

Xiao Qian was a famous prince of a different surname in the capital. Both his legs were disabled, and he was sickly through and through. Cold-hearted and indifferent, there seemed to be nothing in the world that could stir his emotions.

Until...

At a banquet, the frail young man, who looked even weaker than him, tried to push his wheelchair but couldn't. His eyes instantly reddened...

When they met again, the young man smiled innocently, then lifted a rock and smashed it against his own leg...

Xiao Qian: That night must have affected him badly. It was my fault, after all. I'd better look out for him when I can.

Later, Xiao Qian sat in his wheelchair with the young man on his lap. The young man looked at him with tear-filled eyes,

Yan Lishu, who had given up and still risen to power, mused: There are no shortcuts in this world. But if you do it enough times, there are.

A seemingly docile and obedient shou who goes crazy from time to time x a fatherly gong with plenty of tricks up his sleeve and a ruthless streak

The two have a height difference, an age gap, and a difference in build.

[P.S. The gong is not disabled. Neither of them is a good person. A brainless, sweet story in a fictional setting.]
