Jin Shuyi's maternal family is the wealthiest in Jiangnan. Unfortunately, her grandfather is getting old, and she can see the greedy relatives circling to carve up the family fortune. She has no choice but to find herself a live-in husband.

The man is exceedingly handsome, and he does whatever she says.

That's because she paid him to.

Though her handsome husband married into her household for her money, Jin Shuyi needs his help so often that she feels bad about it. She does everything she can to adorn him with gold and silver, and asks him more than anything else, "Do you have enough money to spend?"

Even so, he is rarely happy. Jin Shuyi understands why, so once she has the family business firmly in her grasp, she writes him a letter of release. After putting it off for days, she finally decides to set him free.

"If you want to leave, you can go anytime," she says.

She looks up and sees his lips pressed tight, then adds in a small voice, "To tell you the truth, if I keep supporting you like this, I'll... I'll run my family business into the ground..."

Three years later, the whole country institutes new policies. Jin Shuyi is brought to the capital by the father she'd barely known, and overnight becomes the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenguo.

Three months after arriving in the capital, she is taken to a palace banquet. It is her first time in the palace, and she is so nervous that she does not dare lift her head. Just as His Majesty is about to arrange her marriage, a familiar voice comes from above, as casual and indifferent as she remembers: "There is still plenty of time, Your Majesty. Why not think it over?"

She looks up sharply and sees His Highness Prince Yu, famed for his formidable methods, leisurely lifting his wine cup beside the emperor.

Their eyes meet, and she freezes on the spot.

Th-that's her husband, the one who left home in a huff!

Straightforward, slow-on-the-uptake heroine VS scheming hero who plans several steps ahead

Coming soon: A World of Grace

The martial world had been quiet for a long time, until news broke that Xie Qi, the Divine Healer and vice master of Duanshui Manor, had been kidnapped. Everyone was shocked.

The kidnapper had broken through the manor's gates with a single crack of her Ghost-Whipping Whip, seized her target, and disappeared as if no one were there.

Duanshui Manor sent out invitations to heroes across the land, vowing to bring the demoness to justice.

By a thatched cottage, Zhou Yao uses the whip at her side to haul a bucket of water from the well. She turns back to look at the person coughing up blood nonstop.

She begins to wonder what on earth she has kidnapped.

Strong and sturdy, yet fragile and afraid of death, demoness VS delicate and sickly, yet steadfast and devoted, divine healer

Coming soon: A Match Made by Time

Yan Shixue, the most beautiful woman in the capital, has been terribly uneasy lately.

Ever since she returned from the Lantern Festival palace banquet, her old illness has relapsed!

When she was young, she suffered from a strange malady.

It wasn't painful, but it made her have a strange kind of dream.

In the dream, she always saw herself from the perspective of a bystander.

She could even feel a heartbeat that clearly wasn't her own.

It was as if she had fallen ill with narcissism.

She thought she'd recovered after five years in the south, but now that she has returned to the capital, her condition has worsened!

Specifically, every time she dreams of herself, her heart beats wildly.

It's going to be the death of her!

**

Everyone in the capital knows that the youngest Minister of Justice in Great Huan is a jade-faced King of Hell.

He is cold-faced and even colder-hearted, with ruthless methods that strike fear into people's hearts.

They say that when he was handling a case in Jiangnan, someone offered herself to him and nearly got run through with his sword.

So even though the emperor wants to arrange a marriage for him, no one dares marry him.

But with a political marriage looming, Yan Shixue has no choice but to take a gamble.

That day, the spring breeze was gentle, yet she trembled violently.

It took her ages to piece together a complete question: "M-M-Mi... Minister... would... would you be willing to m-marry me?"

The person before her remains perfectly calm. He merely lowers his eyes at her words, making her even more terrified.

After a long moment, something settles on her shoulders: his cloak.

By her ear, she hears a tone as cool and mild as his expression: "I will."

That night, in her dream, Yan Shixue looks down at herself, timid beneath his cloak.

Her heart pounds like a drum, each beat threatening to burst from her chest.
