Shen Luyao was born into humble circumstances, but she is a beautiful woman with a stubborn streak.

Just then, Prince Yongkang, Wen Shiyu, comes to steal her away!

Beneath the blazing sun, he walks toward her holding an oil-paper umbrella. Even the fluttering butterflies can't help but gather around him. In an instant, Shen Luyao becomes the woman envied by the whole capital.

All the noble young ladies in the capital share one beloved man.

Prince Yongkang, Wen Shiyu, is an unparalleled immortal among mortals.

When Wen Shiyu was ten, he received an incomplete imperial decree arranging his marriage. Ten years have passed, yet the decree still hasn't named his princess consort, leaving all the eligible young women waiting eagerly in hope.

But on the very day Shen Luyao is to be married, he leaves the prince's residence with a large escort. It is his first time leaving the residence in ten years, and in full view of everyone, he does something so shocking it defies convention.

"If you agree, your name will be on that imperial decree."

"Your Highness is of such noble status. I'm afraid you've mistaken me for someone else."

"I haven't. I came for you, Shen Luyao."

After I Used and Abandoned Him, He Took Me by Force

Qinghui was once a supreme deity of the upper realm, but after being framed, she was forced to shed her divinity and fall into the mortal realm. Later, she formed a contract with a beautiful young merfolk who wagged his tail and begged for her favor.

In private, she liked playing with his tail and tracing his scales. She also liked pretending not to hear him as she teased him until he cried.

No matter how badly she treated him, when he went into heat, he would still cry to her, beg her for kisses, and even offer his tail to her of his own accord.

It wasn't until the pain-averse Dixi plucked off a scale and sealed their love with a kiss that she realized he could no longer live without her. She also couldn't bear to make him a sacrifice on the path to ascension.

With no other choice, Qinghui faked her death and returned to the Tongtian Pavilion to seek another way to ascend.

But when she reached the entrance to the Tongtian Pavilion, the merfolk she'd abandoned was staring at her with a deeply aggrieved expression.

*

After recovering his memories, Dixi killed countless people. But to please her, he continued to pretend to be a boy and stay close to her.

Now that she has chosen to use and abandon him, why should he keep pretending? After all, taking her by force is the nature of a beast!

*

Five years later, Qinghui rubs her aching lower back and kicks a certain fish out of bed, but her body still can't help spasming.

She never imagined he could get jealous over someone who was already dead, then repay her a thousand times over for all the ways she'd teased him.

#She gives him everything and spoils him, while he gives everything to love her#

1. This isn't traditional xianxia. It's a modern alternate setting with many original worldbuilding details.

2. One-on-one romance, both leads' first time, boy-girl romance, sweet story.

3. The hero is an innocent puppy at first, then turns into a vicious hound and wild wolf.

4. This is a story I wrote for myself. If it's not to your taste, feel free to leave, but please don't attack me personally.

5. "Big Sister" comes from the master-servant relationship and the rules of their contract. If that doesn't appeal to you, read with caution.
