My next book is The Lover Who Disappeared for Three Years. The blurb is at the very bottom.
Blurb:
When she was young, Ruan Taoran charmed a lot of people.
"Big Sis, Ranran likes you best. Can I play with you?"
"Big Sis, Ranran will stay with you forever."
Life was hard after her parents died, living under someone else's roof. She learned to be careful and to make people like her.
Later, when she went abroad to study, she had just stepped off the plane when she saw a woman in an ink-black suit, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, her bearing as cold as frost and snow.
"Ruan Taoran, do you still like me?"
Ruan Taoran couldn't remember who she was, but she recognized the seven-figure platinum watch on her wrist. This was an old acquaintance with money and power.
Instinctively, Ruan Taoran flashed a brilliant smile and went over to her. "Of course I do, Big Sis. I'm so happy you came to pick me up."
Ji Qingyun's gaze remained icy. "Remember what you just said."
As a proper kept woman and a thoughtful, comforting companion, Ruan Taoran was very professional.
She asked for no title, never made a fuss or picked a fight. Her entire world revolved around her benefactor, whom she kept happy.
Ruan Taoran never imagined that one day Ji Qingyun would speak in a tightly restrained voice beside her ear:
"Ruan Taoran, you're not allowed to call anyone else Big Sis."
"Ruan Taoran, will you stay by my side for the rest of your life?"
"Ruan Taoran, be my fiancee."
President Ji thought Ruan Taoran would always have eyes only for her.
But the other big sisters she'd charmed back in the day showed up too:
"Ranran, come with me. Ji Qingyun isn't right for you."
"Ranran, Big Sis will protect you for the rest of your life. You told me you liked me when you were little."
Everyone knew President Ji had an overwhelming possessive streak. No one expected that little canary to be so daring.
*Sunny, cheerful little sweetheart VS cold, obsessive, possessive CEO.
The Lover Who Disappeared for Three Years:
Song Xiangwan and Ming Jin had a furious argument, trading harsh words.
"You, President Ming, are domineering and overbearing. The first time we met, you took me by force and made me your kept woman. Did you ask what I wanted? Did you respect my freedom?"
She had always let herself lose her temper in front of Ming Jin without a care.
No matter how much they fought, President Ming would always be the first to back down.
But this time, it seemed she'd gone too far.
After their argument, Ming Jin vanished from her world completely.
During the five years they were together, Ming Jin gave her countless roles in TV dramas and movies, making her one of the leading actresses in the Chinese entertainment industry.
When they were together, Song Xiangwan thought Ming Jin was holding her back, a stain she could never speak of.
Now she was free, but...
There was no one to watch her quietly, the corners of their lips lifting slightly as she threw a tantrum.
No one to pull her through the crowd and take her home when she stayed out clubbing all night.
No one to gently coax her into eating another bite when she was sick and being difficult.
Ming Jin disappeared for a full three years, and Song Xiangwan felt as if those days had been a dream.
Until she happened to meet Ming Jin again.
Wearing a black shirt, Ming Jin had features as cool and elegant as a painting. Her clear, pale eyes swept over Song Xiangwan, and her lofty, dignified air was just as imposing as ever.
She was still surrounded by people, the center of attention wherever she went.
Everything was just as before, except... for the wheelchair she sat in...
Song Xiangwan's eyes narrowed slightly. What had happened over these past few years?
Desperate to find out, she blocked the wheelchair's path.
Those clear, pale eyes lifted to look at her, cool and detached, as if she were a stranger. "Miss Song, please let me pass."
As they brushed past each other, Ming Jin's fingers tightened slightly where they rested on the wheelchair, but her expression remained calm and composed.
She had given Song Xiangwan the freedom she wanted.
She would never cling to her again.
She knew that the way she was now, she was no longer worthy of that dazzling woman.
*Important: Ming Jin is paralyzed from the waist down, and she will not recover later in the story. Please don't read if this bothers you.
*Dazzling kept woman VS benefactor whose body is like deadwood.
*HE, HE, HE. Three times, because it's important.
Theme: Please cherish every spark of light in your life. Keep going!
It's no longer possible. Then we won't end up in this situation. It's so pitiful. Wow.
