Come Get My Childhood Friend!

Xia Zhu had two childhood friends:

Shang Yao, the pampered young heir of a wealthy family, proud, unruly, and arrogant.

Shen Yibai, an autistic genius, quiet and aloof, who had won countless top prizes in math and science competitions since childhood.

Despite being such outstanding young men, the two had competed for more than a decade and still couldn't win their childhood sweetheart's heart.

After starting college, they finally changed their approach. If they kept competing, both would lose. Only by working together could they both win...

At the movies, Shang Yao gripped Xia Zhu's left hand tightly, while Shen Yibai pinched the soft part of her right palm.

At dinner, Shang Yao elegantly cut her steak for her, while Shen Yibai had already peeled a crayfish and held it to her lips.

Any guy who confessed to Xia Zhu was targeted by Shen Yibai in one competition after another, losing no fewer than three gold medals to him.

If he ran into Shang Yao at the stairwell, Shang Yao would pat his cheek, smiling with menace. "Try talking to her again. I dare you."

They made an example of one guy, and no boy dared go near Xia Zhu.

Xia Zhu couldn't take it anymore. She found them and had a serious talk, hoping the two childhood friends would tone it down!

But the two seemed to have completely missed her point and focused on something else entirely:

Shang Yao: "This really isn't good for Zhu Zhu. Taking turns in exclusive one-on-one relationships would suit Chinese babies better."

Shen Yibai: "We'll divide the year into long and short months. In long months, Zhu Zhu will be with me. In short months, she'll be with you."

Shang Yao: "..."

Shang Yao: "July and August are both long months, and every month has an extra day. Could you stop using your clever schemes for this kind of thing?"

Shen Yibai: "Let Zhu Zhu choose."

They both looked at Xia Zhu.

Xia Zhu: Damn it, just burn the whole world down!

P.S. This is a rotating one-on-one arrangement: the two buddies compete to win her over, taking turns. There won't be a threesome. Most likely there will be two endings, each with its own bonus chapter, and everyone gets a happy ending.

Wild Crossing

Jiang Baoli's parents both died when she was young, and she was taken in by the Shen family.

The Shen family had a son, Shen Yulou.

They spent many years together under the guise of being brother and sister.

Shen Yulou treasured and protected Jiang Baoli as she grew up.

That humid summer in the room after the college entrance exams, Shen Yulou stubbed out his cigarette and fastened a star necklace around her neck himself. His breath was warm and damp.

"Baobao, do me a favor.

He asked Jiang Baoli to seduce Si Du, the heir to the Si Corporation.

She was to sabotage his arranged marriage so he couldn't marry the eldest daughter of the Qiao family.

Jiang Baoli agreed.

Rumor had it the eldest young master of the Si family was calculating, ruthless, dark, and wicked.

Every woman who had been with him was terrified, saying he wasn't human but a demon!

Jiang Baoli thought she was stepping halfway into hell, but she steeled herself and went through with it.

Three months later, inside a Rolls-Royce, Si Du cradled the slender waist of the young woman and cupped her fair, innocent face, his gaze burning.

"Baobao, I want to kiss you here."

She undid the star necklace around her neck. "You can go a little lower."

As the young man kissed her passionately, Jiang Baoli looked toward the pear tree in the distance.

Shen Yulou's dark eyes were cold enough to freeze.

A scheming, wicked man vs. an ambitious school beauty who loves pretending to be sweet and obedient.

The male lead is Si Du.
