Blurb:
Lin Jingjing is the least-loved daughter of the Lin family.
Her eldest sister is sharp and capable, and gets along with everyone.
Her second sister is exceptionally talented, with a host of admirers.
Her younger brother has all the family's love lavished on him. They dote on him so much they fear he might melt in their hands.
Only Lin Jingjing has been sickly since childhood. Everyone keeps their distance, and she's nicknamed the modern-day Lin Daiyu.
The Lin family doesn't keep idle people, meaning people like Lin Jingjing, who has neither talent nor ability. So as soon as she reaches marriageable age, her social-climbing family sends her off for a marriage alliance.
Lin Jingjing would rather die than comply. Her money-hungry family gives her only one option: marry obediently and enjoy a life of comfort.
Crying, throwing a fit, and threatening to hang herself don't work. Lin Jingjing takes her private savings and prepares to run away in secret. To her utter surprise, she runs into a sickly man in a wheelchair whose legs are paralyzed.
Oh no! Her frail fiancé suddenly shows up. With her escape plan about to fail, Lin Jingjing cleverly pretends to faint.
The sickly, gloomy man is startled. His fiancée really is as frail as the rumors say. He had originally wanted to scare her off so she'd call off the engagement herself.
Then he suddenly changes his mind and immediately calls an ambulance...
Lying on the ground and pretending to be ill, Lin Jingjing hears the sinister man say he's taking her to the hospital. He must have some ulterior motive.
She can't keep up the act. She quickly opens her eyes and weakly rubs her forehead. "I'm so dizzy. Who am I? What happened to me? Where am I? Hmm, and who are you?"
Zhao Yuheng takes his time. His long fingers tap rhythmically on the armrest of his wheelchair, and he replies coolly, "Your husband."
"???" Lin Jingjing's heart skips a beat. Why isn't this man playing by the rules?!
I'm terrible at writing blurbs. This novel is also known as "First Married, Then in Love with a Sickly Big Shot."

Title: First Married, Then in Love with a Big Shot from the Capital
Blurb: The day Tang Xueying catches her fiancé cheating is also the day her true identity is exposed to the public.
The pampered darling of the Tang family, a spoiled little sweetheart, instantly becomes a fake heiress accused of stealing someone else's place.
Overnight, Tang Xueying becomes a laughingstock, scorned by everyone and left tragically homeless.
Meng Yunqi is the head of the Meng family, one of the capital's top wealthy families. Rumor has it he's cold-blooded and ruthless, keeps to himself, and has no interest in women. He's an untouchable moon in the sky.
Hit by one blow after another, Tang Xueying has nowhere left to turn. She plans to seek help from her ex-fiancé's uncle, the man who cheated on her, and the head of the Meng family, Meng Yunqi.
On the verge of tears, Tang Xueying tries to win his sympathy. "Uncle, for old times' sake, could you help me?"
The man looks down at her, haughty and nonchalant. "How would you like me to help, Miss Tang?"
Tang Xueying looks up at the terrifying man before her, her eyes glistening with tears.
She bites her lip nervously, unsure how to ask.
Meng Yunqi's gaze is dark and deep. He lifts her chin with a long, bony finger. "Say it."
With tears blurring her vision, Tang Xueying trembles and sobs. "I-I have nothing left. I just want somewhere to stay."
Meng Yunqi's expression is blank. "Marry me."
Tang Xueying: "Huh?"
Meng Yunqi's expression is inscrutable, and he says nothing more.
Tang Xueying decides to risk it all and clings tightly to her last lifeline. "What else do you need me to do, Uncle?"
Meng Yunqi replies coldly, "Be good and do as you're told."
Tang Xueying knows exactly what she is to him: Meng Yunqi just needs an obedient trophy wife.
Everyone in the capital's elite circles waits to see Tang Xueying make a fool of herself. Instead, they get the explosive news that she's married Meng Yunqi.
Rumors fly. So what if she has impressive tricks up her sleeve? Before long, her true colors will show. Meng Yunqi will surely get sick of her and throw her out.
After the wedding, Tang Xueying gradually realizes that this isn't the contract marriage they agreed on.
Once a certain someone breaks his celibacy, his supposed self-restraint and ascetic elegance turn out to be nothing but a lie.
Little scene:
Tang Xueying clutches her torn new dress, her eyes red as she complains in a sweet, aggrieved voice, "Meng Yunqi, you broke your promise! You said you wouldn't touch me, but we're having sex way too often!"
The veins on the back of Meng Yunqi's hand stand out as he gently strokes her slender back and patiently coaxes her. "Xueying, would you like your own private jet and luxury yacht? And how about a ski holiday in Switzerland together at the end of the year..."

Title: Midsummer Song
Blurb: In her second year of high school, Xia Xingli comes to the city from a mountain village for the first time and moves into the Xu family home, a place as luxurious as a palace.
Her mother is a housekeeper for the Xu family.
The Xu family has a rebellious young master, Xu Minglan, who's arrogant and doesn't care what anyone thinks.
You can offend anyone you like, but never the all-powerful eldest young master of the Xu family.
They first meet in the height of summer, with cicadas singing.
Xia Xingli carries a battered woven-plastic bag and wears a school uniform faded from too many washes. She can't even speak standard Mandarin properly as she goes to find her room.
The magnificent Xu family home is filled with stylish, well-dressed teenagers gathered around Xu Minglan, barbecuing in the courtyard.
Someone points to Xia Xingli, who looks so out of place, and asks curiously, "Young Master Xu, who's that girl?"
The pampered darling at the center of everyone's attention raises his beautiful, sparkling eyes. His gaze is cool. "She's here to collect the trash."
In the courtyard's shadow, Xia Xingli looks up at the dazzling, free-spirited boy among the crowd. He's aloof and noble, high above anyone's reach.
They seem to belong to two different worlds, even though they're standing in the same place.
~~
After school starts, Xia Xingli is forced to sit beside Xu Minglan. She sees his charm firsthand. Different people confess their love to him every day, and he receives so many love letters and gifts he can barely keep up, yet he remains unmoved.
Xia Xingli knows what she wants: to study hard, get into her dream university, and do what she loves in the future.
To get through high school in peace, Xia Xingli has no choice but to rely on Young Master Xu's influence. Before long, she becomes his little sidekick.
One day, Xu Minglan gets hurt in an accident. On a sweltering summer night, his dark eyes are unreadable, and his voice is hoarse. "Xia Xingli, come here and let me kiss you."
Just before graduation, Xu Minglan and Xia Xingli make plans to study abroad together.
But instead, he receives word that she left without saying goodbye.
From that day on, Xia Xingli's name becomes taboo. No one dares mention it in front of Xu Minglan.
~~
Years later, they meet again at a business conference. Xia Xingli brings her latest designs to seek investment and unexpectedly runs into the man seated at the head of the table.
By then, Xu Minglan has become a major investor in the business world.
He sneers at her designs and says coldly, "Trash. Not worth investing in."
After the meeting, Xu Minglan blocks Xia Xingli's way inside his luxury car.
On a wet, rainy night, the man holds her captive in his arms. His eyes are red, and his cool voice is restrained and pained. "Xia Xingli, how dare you show your face? Do you remember what you did?"
Xia Xingli: "I was young and foolish. It was just a game. Why take it so seriously, Mr. Xu?"
The man's anger turns into laughter. He calls her by name. "I'll let you keep playing."
Outside, torrential rain pours down. Xia Xingli's voice is calm and even. "I don't take out the trash."
