The Young Widow

【Recently, several of my works have been maliciously reported one after another while being completed and settled. This has seriously affected my creative state of mind and my income. I have preserved the relevant evidence and entrusted a lawyer to handle the matter according to law. I reserve the right to pursue legal responsibility. The internet is not beyond the reach of the law. Please take note.】 Honest, devoted widow × refined scoundrel (Exclusively published on Jinjiang. Works with the same title on other sites are unrelated to this one.) On her way home from visiting her late husband's grave, Xue Qingqing came across a man. He was badly injured, handsome and refined, with the air of a scholar fallen on hard times. Whenever he looked at her, his peach-blossom eyes were brimming with affection and a smile. Xue Qingqing had a vague feeling that something was off about that look. Later, once the man's injuries had healed, Xue Qingqing packed his things and told him, “You should go. The world is vast, and perhaps we'll meet again someday.” The man looked at her for a long while, then quietly nodded. Xue Qingqing felt relieved, certain she would never see him again. That is, until a thug sneaked into her house in the middle of the night and tried to force himself on her. The man, who had been “away” for half a month, appeared like a divine soldier from the heavens and kicked the thug unconscious. “Qing Niang, see? Isn't it dangerous to be home alone?” the man asked gently, wiping away her tears. Xue Qingqing could barely speak through her sobs, but nodded again and again. “Then wouldn't it make sense for me to stay?” Xue Qingqing nodded again. … The Crown Prince Pei Huaizhen was the legitimate heir, born to the empress, and favored by fate. If nothing unexpected happened, he would spend his entire life high above the world, untouched by its dust. But life always has a way of surprising you. The first surprise came when he underestimated his enemy, was trapped, and fell from a cliff in a rainstorm. The second came when he was rescued while injured, only to repay his savior's kindness by seducing her. Bonus scene: On the ninety-somethingth day of his ongoing pursuit of the married woman, Pei Huaizhen finally got what he wanted. That night, the woman was drenched in sweat, her beautiful eyes unfocused. She reached out to push him away. “Don't… I, I don't want to get pregnant.” Pei Huaizhen smiled. His manner turned suddenly fierce as he breathed softly against her ear. “So you don't want to have my child, but you were willing to have one with your dead husband?” Content warnings: 1. The heroine is not a virgin, while the hero is. The heroine has a baby from the start, one month old. 2. The heroine is a transmigrator with no golden finger. 3. The heroine was transmigrated into a baby and has modern consciousness, but not much of it. She's about seventy percent assimilated. 4. The heroine is the timid, genuinely fragile sort. The author is a devoted supporter of little white rabbits, so blame the author, not her. 5. This is pure wish-fulfillment erotica. The author did think things through, but not much. If you think the plot is idiotic, then it is; if you think the characters are bad, then they are. All opinions are welcome, but personal attacks and repeatedly derailing the discussion are not. Those comments will be deleted. 6. Why give the heroine an “ABB”-style name? Because when Xue Qingqing appeared in my mind, she could only be Xue Qingqing. Any other name would belong to someone else. If you don't understand, please respect that. Thank you very much. 7. Comments arguing will also be deleted! (Bold and underlined for emphasis.) 8. The author is a die-hard official-couple fan. It's 1v1, with no love triangles, though there will be male side characters with one-sided feelings for the heroine. All supporting characters exist only to advance the main couple's romance. 9. Happy ending. Theme: Love is patient and kind.
