[Possessive, Insane Crown Prince with Two Personalities x Gentle, Imaginative Young Lady (?)]

Fu Chenyuan is the person Wen Lingyue hates most in this life.

He is an arrogant, highborn crown prince, a cold-blooded killer, and the living King of Hell who forced her into marriage and imprisoned her in the Eastern Palace.

To her surprise, on their wedding night Wen Lingyue realizes that he is the handsome gentleman she drunkenly kissed by force.

And the man before her seems to have no memory of her at all.

That is, until the Moon Festival banquet. The crown prince gets drunk on almond wine, and when she tries to sneak away, he calls her back.

The expected cold sword is replaced by warm fingertips. Fu Chenyuan is all smiles, without a trace of drunken rage, like a pure-hearted young man plucking a flower for her.

Seeing her fear, the young man says gently, "This is the first time I've ever seen the Crown Princess."

A moment later, after a brief nap, that cold sword appears again. "Crown Princess, what a clever scheme, getting close to me while I wasn't paying attention?"

"...You fall asleep and wake up not recognizing people?"

"?"

Yes, he's still a completely deranged madman, never knowing what mood he'll be in.

*

Fu Chenyuan has a secret, one even he doesn't know about.

It has something to do with almonds, and with another "him."

When almonds mark the boundary, he grips her chin and threatens her with icy cruelty, as if he's about to crush her to pieces the very next moment.

When almonds mark the boundary, he'll secretly grin like a fool when their eyes happen to meet, then tenderly kiss her earlobe, cherishing and spoiling her as he asks her again and again to call him "husband."

*

Later, he too begins to yearn for her in his own innocent way.

Every kiss from Wen Lingyue should belong to him alone.

Wen Lingyue should have loved only him, from beginning to end.

Later, the other "him" also grows more and more greedy.

Crown Princess, could you be my Crown Princess too?

Crown Princess... could you be the Crown Princess of me alone?

#My husband gets jealous of himself when he goes crazy

[Reading Guide]

* One-on-one, both leads' first time, happy ending. A goofy, funny style. Every story element serves the romance, and the author has invented plenty of details.

* The heroine is an innocent beauty, not an airhead. She understands what's right and wrong, but is slow to catch on when it comes to love.

* The primary personality doesn't know the other exists, but the secondary personality knows about the primary. They don't share memories unless they deliberately tell the other personality.

* Lighthearted writing. Hope you enjoy reading! If that's not your thing, please skip it.

* A sweet bedtime treat, focused mainly on the romance. I'm waving the flag for sweet romances!

[Deceptive Princess x Nine-Tailed Fox Spirit]

.

Yu Changdeng's first half of life was miserable. She wandered the mortal world, so wretched that even the lowliest ghosts spat at her. Only a divine master saved her, allowing her to scrape by for another ten years or so.

Until she learned the truth of her birth, and before she rescued that fox, all Changdeng could think about was returning to the palace and reclaiming everything that should have been hers as the eldest princess.

And asking why they had abandoned her when she was still a baby in swaddling clothes.

In the thirty-sixth year of Guanglu, she found a white fox on the brink of death.

The first thing the fox did when he woke was proudly waggle the nine tails he'd "happened" to reveal and say, "Do you like me? If you don't, I'll follow you everywhere."

So Miss Yu was forced to change her plans: get rid of that fox as soon as possible, then storm the palace.

*

The land of Guanglu is divided into three realms: demons and humans are equals, with ghosts beneath them.

Among the demon clans, the foxes reign supreme.

In the thirty-sixth year, Ling Jiuqi was unlucky enough to visit the human realm for the first time on a mission.

He had to obtain the heart's blood of the supposedly dead eldest princess.

The truly inexperienced Ling Jiuqi decided to follow the foxes' usual routine. Step one: make her fall for this fox's good looks.

*

Along the way, the fox who wasn't so easy to get rid of would keep smiling at her and telling her he had nine tails, and each tail was a life.

Yu Changdeng, who wasn't falling for his good looks, didn't care much. She thought he was terribly noisy.

Later, she used every means at her disposal, her hands covered in blood, to finally reclaim the moon she had longed for, the one that should have been hers all along. But she forgot about the fox who had always followed behind her. It turned out he had been there all along.

Just as he had said when they first met.

Only now, he was missing all nine tails.

"So, Deng Deng, do you like me now?"

Reading Guide:

* A touch of ensemble cast. Not a power fantasy centered on an invincible heroine. The leads grow together. Here comes another strange pair of equally powerful leads?

* The male lead isn't an energetic puppy type. He's quite the opposite, and a bit of a rascal.

* A love between a human and a fox that never quite ended (?)

Theme: Believe that your existence is the most meaningful thing of all.
