Clear-headed rich young woman vs. sick, sinister black lotus
*
The discarded twin, Xiao Yan, had been confined to a tiny space from birth. For years, no one paid him any mind, and he suffered abuse and neglect. The first taste of sweetness he ever knew was the poison that kept him alive when he was dying of hunger.
He was a snake in the gutter. The only time anyone remembered him was when they wanted him to die in place of his Crown Prince elder brother.
Abandoned in a mass grave, Xiao Yan slowly bled out, his life slipping away. His boundless hatred drove him to pierce his elder brother's throat with an arrowhead and take his place.
One day, to escape danger, he disguised himself as a woman and infiltrated the Song residence, where he met Song Tiaotiao, a young lady of the Song family who was selecting a companion reader.
Their eyes met. She took his hand, her eyes clear and translucent as cut jade, and called him by his elder brother's name.
Thinking of the chaos of the present day, Xiao Yan smiled broadly and clasped her hand in return.
He would claim everything that belonged to his elder brother: power, status, and honor.
Now that he was once again benefiting from the favor his brother had bestowed, what was wrong with that?
*
It was only natural for Song Tiaotiao to take an interest in Xiao Yan.
He understood people's hearts and was skilled in manipulation, like a demon from a folk tale, easily bewitching people and playing them in the palm of his hand.
Most importantly, he had a face just like that of an old friend from her youth.
So even though his identity was questionable, she still risked her life to save him in the perilous mountains.
She never imagined she would come to regret that decision so bitterly.
For many years afterward, she would keep moving her pieces across the board, plotting how to take his life.
*
At first, Xiao Yan thought a young lady like Song Tiaotiao, inexperienced in the ways of the world, had mistaken him, a snake, for a lamb. She tried to advise him, soothe him, and protect him. She was far too kindhearted.
But after she showered him with fragrant flowers and sweet treats, and they weathered danger together again and again, his resolve finally began to waver.
Just as his heart stirred, the young lady saw through him and laid bare his bloodied, ugly insides.
With swords drawn and a storm brewing, Song Tiaotiao left without looking back, even taking refuge in another man's arms. He bared his fangs and followed his base nature, pulling her into his grasp and locking her away in a gilded cage.
Together until death.
1. Set in a fictional world. The plot serves the romance.
2. Neither protagonist is perfect. The author loves multifaceted characters.
3. The heroine's name comes from a poem by Du Mu, as mentioned in the main story.
4. The main story has an open ending; the extras have a happy ending. Both leads are each other's only partners.
Note: The rebellion has nothing to do with the heroine. It is an inevitable result of the political intrigue plotline, so please don't link the two.
Theme: All rivers flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full.
(The following is just my personal thoughts, minor spoilers are involved) Today I had nothing to do but read it again at home, and there seems to be a paragraph added at the end. It seemed a bit half-understood at first, but when I saw the explanation, it made me feel a bit qaq when everything was put together... I don't know why I indirectly like to read this kind of yandere and rape novels. I saw the explanation on the Internet that it was because the growing environment was suppressed or ignored, and a part of the weak self was developed, and a strong person was needed to deny the weak self. There is no way of knowing whether this explanation is accurate or not. I think it's more that I lack love and feel insecure. Ordinary people in real life can't get absolute and extremely pure love, but paper people can, especially yandere paper people. Xiao Yan's twisted childhood has caused his yandere character, which has led to his extremely morbid love. He is desperate to stay by his side even if he flies into the flame. Some people may find it scary, but I... Feel a little relieved. He is very twisted, he keeps struggling, and uses various means. He only needs to look far away and look far away. Even if in the end, Yuanfan wanted to win completely, at the cost of his life, he would just say: Let her win. He really made me cry to death TT
This is the first time for the babies to write an essay, and they have no experience to draw from. They are perfectionists and have revised the essay many times. They have tried their best to do what they think is as good as they can within their limited abilities. They read a lot of materials and stayed up late. Although they struggled and did not make much money, they finished writing. There are no cuts in the whole article, just because I have to take the postgraduate entrance examination and internship, it speeds up the progress and does not affect the plot... If there is anything you are not satisfied with, can you please include it? If you say you don't hate it or like it, but it's just a dull experience, please don't just give it a low score, okay? (Of course! If you find it difficult to accept, please let me know)T▽TPlease, please, you can just mention it in the comment area without giving a score. You can praise it or give it a few points! But when I saw this score, the little author was really going to break into pieces... It's not that this score is useful. For low-traffic articles, this score shouldn't be of much use... It's just that the author has a glass heart that hangs all the time. You can see it from time to time, and then secretly shed tears and keep denying yourself. Everyone said in the comment area that it is okay to speak freely and criticize and correct me. Relatively speaking, I will be more accepting of it. Is that okay? Please, babies! I am indeed a bit sensitive and thoughtful, thank you for your understanding>_
The writing is very nice and has a very ancient flavor, but some of the expressions are rather obscure and make me feel dizzy. When the heroine meets the hero, it's like a farmer meets a snake, Mr. Dong Guo meets a wolf. He saves people kindly but is repaid with kindness. The heroine is really innocent. Trying to break off the bird's wings and trap it in a cage is too cruel, let alone an independent and free soul like the heroine. Every time I see the heroine finally escape but is caught repeatedly, I shed tears silently and wish I could tear Xiao Yan apart. I admire the second male lead more than the male lead. They had a friendship from the beginning. The second male lead has always wanted the female lead to be free and happy. Unfortunately, they are not destined to be together. I can smoke the female lead and the second male lead, Yin An, He Yunzhi, and Xiao Ning Yue, but I can't get enough of the female lead and the male lead. Sorry to the author, so this ending is actually not suitable for me. I even hope that the female lead will be ruthless and never look back. Wuwuwu, my precious heroine, Song Youtuo, don't encounter paranoia in your next life, and live a free and unrestrained life.
The author's writing style is really good, and the simple and ancient style of the picture is super strong. Who knows that I really like the sour and bitter pull between the male and female protagonists, especially when describing the male protagonist's crazy possessiveness. Even if you want me to die, I still can't bear to hurt you. It makes me, a person who hates forced parties, can't help but watch it. There is also a male protagonist who hates his brother to death, but I want the female protagonist not to hate it. I should learn the appearance of my brother by myself, who knows, it's so exciting for me, I really like it when the male protagonist goes crazy, and there are a few paragraphs when the author's plot is connected, which is confusing, and the rest of the book is really super good. If it is the first book, it would be great. The author must continue to write, I will follow your article to the death [Star Eye] [Star Eye] [Star Eye]
The ending is pretty good, but it's a pity that the war was cruel and so many people died
Great! Looking forward to the next one!
The male protagonist looks like this when he sees the female protagonist [rolls eyes]
If nothing else, does the author really have strong literary skills? This article really feels like reading an ancient novel. I admire [Caigou]. She must be a talented woman in reality.
Dear author, can you please leave your contact information? I like your writing style very much and want to communicate with you about writing?
The story ends ~ I feel that the heroine has little psychological activity, so the emotional transition is a bit stiff, but overall the writing is very good, especially in line with my xp, and I like bad women, and mad dogs. The author's writing is also very good. It can be seen that he has done a lot of homework. I praise the baby - 3 - in the end, it is very beautiful.
