My Cousin Has a Problem

It's complete! Please add my upcoming novel, My Ex-Husband Keeps Going Insane, to your collection.

Female lead is not a virgin; the male lead is* coercive pursuit* groveling after losing her

Living under someone else's roof and targeted by schemers, Xiao Hanyu has no choice but to worry about her marriage.

The first time, she and the newly appointed top scholar exchange tokens and agree to ask His Majesty to arrange their marriage before the throne.

But in the blink of an eye, the top scholar becomes her cousin's enemy and breaks their engagement, even going to her home to do it.

The second time, a young general who has fought on the battlefield falls in love with her at first sight. Just after they enter the bridal chamber,

an urgent order summons the general back to camp. Before long, news arrives that he has died in battle.

The third time, Xiao Hanyu takes the hand of a young imperial physician, just as she is about to confess her feelings. Her proud and aloof cousin appears behind them, and the young physician hurries away, blushing.

Seeing her marriage prospects fall through again and again, Xiao Hanyu grows desperate and asks her cousin for help.

After all, he is of noble birth and holds great power. Since they were children, he has always granted her every request.

But when Xiao Hanyu wakes, she finds her usually cold-hearted cousin sitting beside her bed. He winds her hair around his fingers and asks gently,

"Little sister, who else do you want to marry?"

"Who do you think you can marry?"

Everyone says Wei Hanzhang is a gentleman of noble character. Only Xiao Hanyu knows how dark and despicable he is. Otherwise, he would not have arranged several marriages for her, only to hide her away in his private residence and keep her in his bed.

* The heroine has her reasons for what she does. Read the novel for details.

* Later on, expect coercive pursuit, groveling after losing her, and other melodramatic tropes.

My Ex-Husband Keeps Going Insane

Yuan Chenglan despises Wei Chao, but marries his younger sister, intending to use the marriage to vent his spite.

Unexpectedly, on their wedding night, Yuan Chenglan loses control and is easily swept away by Wei Jiuniang's tenderness.

After one reckless night, he wakes from his dream and finds himself savoring the memory.

Yuan Chenglan: ...I despise myself.

Yuan Chenglan later: I despise myself more and more.

Just as he thinks the two of them are inseparable and will never part, Wei Jiuniang leaves the city to pray at a temple and falls to her death from a cliff.

Half a month later, guests arrive at the Wei home to pay their respects. Yuan Chenglan, once their brother-in-law, comes by to keep Wei Chao company.

But he accidentally gets Wei Chao's collar wet and sees a small mole near his shoulder blade, exactly like his late wife's.

Yuan Chenglan: ...He begins to question his life.

At first, Wei Jiuniang thinks she can put up with him for a few more days. But she eventually cannot stand Yuan Chenglan's lack of restraint, so she stages her death and cuts all ties with him.

Then, one day, he discovers her secret, and her self-important ex-husband goes completely and irreversibly mad.
