[A selfless, love-struck death warrior x a clever, meticulous, teary-eyed sect leader's wife]
A story about breaking free of one's chains and searching for oneself
(My first attempt at writing, just for practice. The whole story is free. Please feel free to read, but if it's not your thing, no need to say so.)
[More or less the blurb]
Before meeting Shen Huayi, Chi Hongxiao's world was small.
She was trapped in the false affection her master had woven around her, living without a self of her own as a death warrior.
Then Chi Hongxiao met Shen Huayi, who had been forced to marry into a sect. Somehow, Shen Huayi, the sect leader's wife, wound up leading her out of the sect.
Chi Hongxiao knew she shouldn't get close to her. After all, what could Shen Huayi offer to tie her down as a guard? Wealth? Status? Glory?
These days, you need real money to get a death warrior to give her all. Out on the run, Shen Huayi had only her beauty and those shallow words, "Hongxiao, I like you," to lure her in.
A capable woman like Chi Hongxiao would naturally... foolishly follow right along.
Though Shen Huayi had nothing, luckily, neither did she!
Wealth and status were out of Chi Hongxiao's reach, and even the affection she had gained was false. A little bit of true love was all it took to make a love-struck woman like her follow Shen Huayi on the run.
Until Shen Huayi, who had nothing, showed her the world and helped her find herself.
She let Chi Hongxiao deal with the old master who had oppressed her, gave her a sect of her own, and filled the emptiness inside her.
Chi Hongxiao discovered that in private, Shen Huayi was actually such a clingy, easily frightened, tearful person.
She would cry her eyes out, then settle the score with ruthless precision. Having just dealt with someone, she'd turn around and come back to act spoiled with Chi Hongxiao.
Shen Huayi really couldn't stand up for herself at all, but the greatest joy in Chi Hongxiao's life was watching her wife act spoiled...
If only Shen Huayi could act spoiled with her for the rest of their lives...
"From the very first moment I saw you, I thought you must be the very best woman in the world. If I were the sect leader, I would find a way to marry you, too. All I would want is... to spend my life with you..."
"Then I won't let you think that we both have to find a great tree and beg others to give us somewhere to shelter...
So, will you come with me? To see how vast the world is..."
"I'd be delighted."
A few tips:
1. The story focuses on the growth of the two female leads. It's plot-driven and has a happy ending.
2. Even though it's finished, I still can't get enough of the main couple, so I'm planning both a Republican-era version of Twin Geese Crossing and a modern-day version. If you like my narrative style, I hope you'll follow along when they're out~~
Theme: Twin geese cross through hardship; at the end, spring mountains await
Tonight, a sudden inspiration struck, and I changed the copy and the local name to suit the context. I've finally decided on the proper title for this story! I plan to call it "Two Geese Crossing the River," the idea being that the two female protagonists, like two geese, overcome hardship together. Two geese cross hardship, and at the end lies spring. Let's encourage each other! The new cover is on its way!
Some readers in the Lily section act like chickens with their necks stepped on when they see a man. Many good authors have been driven away by their insults. I really don't know how such people live in real life. Authors should ignore them.
Keep it up, author! I've been reading your story all the way through, and I've read about your initial intentions and the challenges you faced when you started writing it. Although this book has an opening that yuri readers might not like, I can feel your dedication to developing the female lead's character and realistically portraying her suffering from her perspective, without exaggerating or…
Fragmented absorption is dangerous. Short videos and lighthearted romance shows can make you miss many details, and their fast pace creates a one-sided knowledge loop, essentially an information cocoon. When you present the facts and show them otherwise, it triggers a strong backlash. I hope the author continues writing; critical thinking is invaluable. 🌈
🤗Shen Huayi's explanation and frankness to Lu Shanggong here are so natural! Many works, in order to portray the female lead as unmoved by money and power, often say that she herself is indifferent to fame and fortune. But who doesn't need money to live? How many people in this world can openly say they don't love money?
I originally planned to practice digital drawing before creating character illustrations, but staring at the empty character cards from JJ's new releases for too long was really frustrating! So, I squeezed in a couple of hours of free time to quickly sketch one. My drawing skills have been rusty for years, and I'm already thankful I can manage this.
😭😭Oh my god, that hurts so much! I know Hongxiao is in pain too, but she hit her so hard! I feel so sorry for Huayi, I feel so sorry for both of them. Who can we blame now? Blame the villainous uncle! 💔
Family, I recently commissioned artwork and a new cover, which will be updated gradually! The book title on the cover is now officially titled "My Wife Urges Me to Become the Sect Leader." Although this title was just something I came up with randomly at first, the story has become increasingly focused on two female leads, and while the title is a bit cheesy, it's actually quite cute and aptly…
This Crown Princess is like a garbage bag; she can really hold a lot.
I really like this book. Author, you can update slowly, but please, please don't stop updating!
