---- Synopsis ----

Shen Suisui longed to get close to Xiao Yunting, but she didn't dare provoke him.

Ever since she was a child living under someone else's roof, Shen Suisui had suffered from a strange illness. The imperial physician called it "skin hunger."

The only cure for her strange affliction was the true master of the manor.

He was refined, cold-hearted, stern, and abstinent. His treacherous, ruthless methods made everyone tremble at the mention of him, calling him a living King of Hell who claimed lives.

Terrified of him as she was, with no other way out, Shen Suisui could only sneak into his bedroom and steal a hug while he slept.

But give someone an inch, and they want a mile. Gradually, that was no longer enough for her.

One night, Shen Suisui burned incense to make him drowsy, then quietly lifted the hanging bed curtains as she always did.

"Caught you."

The man's presence was intimidating even when he said nothing. His deep, dark eyes were impossible to read. Shen Suisui tried to escape, but he seized her wrist and yanked her back.

Xiao Yunting had controlled his clan for years, turning the clouds with one hand and the rain with the other. He plotted at every turn and stopped at nothing, to the point that even the emperor had to fear him.

Yet, at some point, every night he would be overcome by an evil force, his consciousness muddled. He would dream of a snow-white fox entering his tent and slipping into his bed, disturbing him while he could neither move nor tell what was happening.

Days later, the nightmares became even more brazen and unspeakable.

After a month of searching without success, a young girl in the manor wandered into his territory by chance. Graceful and lovely, she swayed as she walked.

The instant their eyes met, the girl went pale with fright and fled in a panic.

All that remained in the air was a faint, sweet scent, familiar and bewitching.

Xiao Yunting stared for a long time in the direction the girl had fled, then smiled.

A sycophant beside him asked, "Has the Ninth Master come across anything that has made him happy lately?"

"Nothing much."

His smile was inscrutable and wanton. He said lightly, "I caught a little fox."

Later, Xiao Yunting caught that audacious "vixen" and decided to strip away her fox pelt and keep her imprisoned at his side for the rest of her life, tormenting her as he pleased.

Upcoming Novel One: My Villainous Husband Is Crazy and Vicious

"I've met your fiancee, my lord. She's very cute."

On the day the great traitor Yan Wenzheng received an imperial pardon, he raised an eyebrow at the only upright official who had exposed him, looking wild and wicked.

The next day, Yan Wenzheng abducted the official's fiancee, Ruan Liuqing, in full view of the public.

Yan Wenzheng was volatile, brutal, and bloodthirsty, a mad dog feared by everyone.

As soon as the news spread, the entire court was outraged and pitied Ruan Liuqing for what would become of her.

Several days later, they finally found her in a ruined mountain temple.

The young woman lay unconscious, her black hair damp and disheveled. Beside her sat Yan Wenzheng, the devil, fully dressed and neat.

He deliberately revealed the marks on the shoulder and neck of the girl in his arms, smiling as wildly as he had in court that day.

From then on, Ruan Liuqing was forced to become a caged bird at his side.

Day and night, he wantonly tormented her, leaving her covered in wounds.

*

A year into their marriage, Ruan Liuqing never expected Yan Wenzheng to fall into a ditch and become a fugitive.

Nor had she realized that he had already made her take poison.

She had no choice but to save him.

She imprisoned the madman in a wooden cabin deep in the mountains.

She copied his old ways and used them on him.

She made him wash her feet and massage her legs every day, and even wash her underwear.

If he displeased her in the slightest, she would lash him hard with a whip...

But their good days didn't last. He rose to power again.

Flames roared around the cabin as ranks of armored soldiers bowed before him.

Ruan Liuqing knew she was finished. She hadn't forgotten how recklessly she'd mistreated him before. Collapsing to the ground, she said, "...Husband, I was wrong."

Yan Wenzheng remained silent, then let out a cold laugh. "You know you were wrong now?"

"Too bad. It's too late."
