This Novel's Blurb:

"Marriage first, love later x long-planned courtship"

["Romantic Playboy" Young Imperial Uncle x "Pure and Harmless" Great Talented Lady]

1.

After Ye Qingyi's father was falsely imprisoned, her stepmother schemed against her and married her off as a concubine into the Chancellor's household.

That very night, Ye Qingyi fled her wedding. In her panic and confusion, she met the notorious young imperial uncle, Li Jingzhi, a dissolute wastrel who was rumored to neglect his proper duties.

Amid the misty rain, Ye Qingyi saw him reach out to her. His words were bewitching, too.

"If you have nowhere to go, Miss Ye, why not come with me?"

The Chancellor's men were chasing her from behind. Before her stood a man holding an oil-paper umbrella, seeming like an immortal descended into the rain.

As if possessed, Ye Qingyi took his hand.

From then on, the imperial uncle who had never married before never took another concubine.

2.

When Li Jingzhi ran away from home at fourteen, he met a young girl.

Her small frame stood protectively in front of him and led him out of danger. From that moment on, he could never forget her.

Five years later, Li Jingzhi had become a notoriously dissolute young man in the capital.

The little girl had become a great talented lady, praised by everyone and sought in marriage by many.

He had thought they would never cross paths again.

Until one day, when dark clouds hid the moon and rain poured down.

A young woman in wedding clothes, covered in mud, appeared before him, just as she had back then.

Thank goodness fate had looked kindly on him.

He had found his light again, his bright moon, the most beautiful sight in his eyes.

[Little Scene]

Everyone waited to laugh at the talented lady for marrying a wastrel.

But from the moment Ye Qingyi entered his household, Li Jingzhi never once set foot in the pleasure quarter again.

Then one day, passersby witnessed Ye Qingyi throw Li Jingzhi and all his belongings out of the residence.

Only then did they realize: "So the young imperial uncle is henpecked!"

Li Jingzhi, furious with embarrassment: "Henpecked? That's called loving my wife!"

Currently serialized novel, "The Little Princess Has Banged Her Head," blurb:

"The proud young general's daily face-slapping"

[High-spirited young general x Little princess who pretends to be crazy and foolish]

The little princess of the Jiang Kingdom, Jiang Shuiyan, had bright eyes, pearly teeth, and an alluring beauty. Her dimples appeared whenever she smiled, making her seem lively and charming.

It was a shame.

Her mother, the late empress, died young. The new empress bullied her, her father did not love her, and her older brothers did not care for her. Then, at the age of ten, she hit her head and became a foolish, brainless ornament of a princess.

At that time, Shen Keting had just returned victorious from battle, in the prime of his youth and full of confidence.

At the victory banquet, the ruler of Jiang, drunk and unsteady, waved his hand and promised him a marriage contract.

As they drank and celebrated amid luxury, a friend teased him.

"Keting! That foolish princess is quite beautiful. Why not marry her and keep yourself entertained?"

Shen Keting swallowed his liquor and sneered disdainfully.

"I don't want to marry a fool."

Later, the little fool followed him around every day, calling him "Brother Keting" so affectionately that she gave him a headache.

The streets were abuzz with rumors:

The young general of the Shen family wanted to marry the foolish princess.

He had intended to deny it outright, but when faced with Jiang Shuiyan's little face scrunched up with hurt, he simply could not bring himself to say so.

"Brother Keting, do you hate A Yan because she's a fool too...?"

"Who said that?" The young man's ponytail flicked as he snapped angrily.

"I like fools!"

At first, Jiang Shuiyan only wanted to find someone to rely on so that she could escape the palace walls once and for all.

Shen Keting had no parents, making him the best place for her to go.

She deliberately got close to him and treated him with every kindness.

Until Shen Keting saw through her disguise.

"Aren't you tired of pretending for so long, Princess?"

But Jiang Shuiyan had pretended to be crazy and foolish for years. How could she reveal a flaw so easily?

Shen Keting saw only what she wanted him to see.

So she looked at him with tear-filled eyes and spoke in a soft, sweet voice. "A Yan has no choice but to act this way. My foolishness is an act, but my feelings for Brother Keting are real."

The proud young general turned and left in a huff.

But the next day, Shen Keting got drunk at a tavern, thinking only of the girl with the flower-like smile.

"So what if she's a liar...?"

"I like liars!"

*You're a liar, and I'm the fool. We were made for each other.*

This is the story of a young general who gets proven wrong and falls in love anyway.

Upcoming novel, "Marrying the Ruthless Hero," blurb:

#Ruthless hero and beauty

#Size difference, height difference, age difference

After recovering from a serious illness, Yin Zhaoxin kept having the same dream.

In the dream, enemy forces surrounded the capital, and she was forced to go to the Yi Kingdom as a princess to marry into its royal family.

On the road, her carriage was ambushed. Caught up in the chaos of war, she became the spoils of the ruthless warlord who ruled the north and was confined to a small corner of his territory.

At first, Yin Zhaoxin thought it was just a dream and dismissed it without a second thought.

Until a few days later, during the autumn hunt, the horse beneath her was startled and bolted into the forest with her. At the moment of danger, a man rescued her.

He wore his hair in a neat ponytail and was dressed in fine, fitted clothes. He was tall and straight-backed, his muscles faintly visible beneath his clothes. Everything about him seemed strangely familiar to Yin Zhaoxin.

Later, the emperor arranged her marriage. When she encountered the man again on her wedding night, her heart raced beneath the red bridal veil.

"I still don't know my husband's name."

"Wei Jing, the newly appointed commander."

Unable to believe it, she lifted her veil right in front of him.

The ruthless hero in her dream was also named Wei Jing, and he looked exactly like this man.
