Lychee Flame

Original title: I Want to Nestle in Your Arms

[Sweet, Adorable Tease x Cold-Faced Loyal Hound]

The Li family was one of the most prominent families in Quancheng. Li Zhizhi, a pampered heiress raised with every indulgence, was full of quirky ideas and hated being tied down.

She used every trick in the book to drive off countless personal bodyguards, but, in an unprecedented move, agreed to let Jiang Yan stay after he applied for the job, happily accepting his protection and company.

Jiang Yan had an outstanding resume. He graduated in mechanical engineering and automation from Quanda, one of the country's top universities. During his military service, he received special forces training and took part in United Nations peacekeeping exercises. He was the very definition of security.

Everyone thought Li Zhizhi had chosen Jiang Yan for his extensive experience, and even Jiang Yan himself thought so.

But the young woman ran her hand over his solid biceps and stared straight at him. “I think your face looks better than your resume.”

From then on, Li Zhizhi went from being a mischievous little princess to a sweet, clingy tease. She stuck to Jiang Yan all day under the guise of being his employer, like a love bandit.

She took his hand and blinked her limpid eyes at him. “I can make your dreams come true and give you wealth and status. What can you give me?”

Jiang Yan didn't dare meet Li Zhizhi's gaze. His back stiffened, and he answered with the crisp force of a soldier replying to his instructor. “My life!”

Li Zhizhi pouted. “I only want you.”

Jiang Yan remained unmoved, never letting her flirtation show on his face. Though he still did everything he could for Li Zhizhi and cared for her attentively, he treated her in a strictly professional manner.

After accumulating enough disappointment, Li Zhizhi agreed to an arranged marriage between their families.

At her engagement party in M Country, armed robbers burst into the venue. Jiang Yan risked his life to protect her, but was shot himself.

Li Zhizhi cared for him day and night, though her words were anything but honest. “You've already been fired.”

Jiang Yan gripped the young woman's hand tightly, his gaze burning. “I don't trust any other man to look after you.”

This time, he let out the feelings he'd repressed for so long and stopped holding back...

Dazzling and Unrestrained [Marriage Before Love]

[Deceptively Obedient Fake Heiress x Scheming Fake Playboy]

The Tong family was a rising power in Jiangcheng, and their only daughter, Tong Wei, was a dazzling, free-spirited young woman adored by everyone in high society.

But a paternity test turned her from a true heiress into a fake one. When the biological daughter returned, Tong Wei's very existence became a joke.

The biological daughter's resentment and suspicion, along with betrayal by her fair-weather best friend, brought Tong Wei nothing but hardship. The Tong couple had already taken their daughter's side, and, egged on by her, made every step impossible for Tong Wei.

From being the darling of the crowd to being abandoned by everyone, Tong Wei placed her last hope in her boyfriend. Then, at a party, she saw him with his arms around another woman. He sneered, “I only dated Tong Wei for the Tong family.”

When she was at the end of her rope, Qi Sizhou gave Tong Wei a helping hand.

He was the head of the Qi family. Though he dominated the business world, he was always surrounded by women, making him exactly the kind of man Tong Wei kept her distance from.

But Qi Sizhou reserved all his patience for Tong Wei. In the first month, he gave her a check; in the second, he bought her a villa; in the third, he helped her start a business.

Everyone assumed Qi Sizhou was only interested in her for a little while and that he'd never keep it up for more than three months. Then the fourth month came...

Tong Wei looked at Qi Sizhou, who seemed lost in thought, and asked nervously, “Are you sending me away this time?”

Without another word, Qi Sizhou drove Tong Wei to the marriage registration office. “I want to give you a marriage certificate.”

After the wedding, Tong Wei continued to hide her true self, acting gentle and obedient and treating Qi Sizhou with polite respect. When they went out, she even gazed at him adoringly and acted coy, like a parasitic vine. Few people knew it was all an act. Every day, she was thinking about getting a divorce.

One day, Tong Wei was messaging a friend but accidentally sent Qi Sizhou: [Send me 50, and I'll tell you my divorce plan.]

Qi Sizhou lifted his eyes and glanced at Tong Wei, who hadn't noticed anything amiss. With a small movement of his fingers, he sent her a red envelope and said in a low voice, “Go on. The more detailed, the better.”

Tong Wei pressed her lips together and started to turn away, but Qi Sizhou grabbed her around the waist and pulled her into his arms. His voice was muffled against her throat. “You take everything from me and then try to run? Who taught you to repay kindness with betrayal?”
