After a Flirtation Gone Wrong, the Ascetic Prince Claims Me for Himself

[Brothers Competing for Her + Taking Her by Force] Luo Sheng was born with a bewitching beauty, sweet and bright. As a child, she fell into the hands of a brothel, but the Luo couple rescued her and adopted her. As she grew, she became ever more soft and sensuous, with a body that could captivate the soul. One day, her adoptive mother fell into the water and began muttering incoherently that she had been reborn. She said that Fifth Prince Xiao Chuai was a hypocrite, aloof and noble on the surface, but ruthless, violent, and lecherous underneath. In the future, he would destroy the Luo family and force Luo Sheng to marry him. With righteousness at stake, Luo Sheng steeled herself to sacrifice her virtue for her benefactors' family. She would seduce the Fifth Prince and serve as a spy. In the palace, the ladies all said that the dignified, bright, steady, and self-controlled Fifth Prince didn't concern himself with worldly desires. Luo Sheng scoffed. In the dim Buddhist shrine, she wound herself around the man's shoulders and arms like a bewitching demon. “Your Highness, my legs are weak...” The next moment, he coldly lifted her away. Luo Sheng: “...” Luo Sheng tried every trick she could think of, but he still wouldn't take the bait. Wasn't he supposed to force her to marry him?! Until one day, Xiao Chuchen, the Fifth Prince's twin brother, appeared. Her adoptive mother let out a piercing scream. “Oh no, that's the one!” Luo Sheng immediately dropped the Fifth Prince and changed targets. At a banquet, Luo Sheng had just given Xiao Chuchen an exquisitely embroidered sachet when the usually cool and composed Fifth Prince Xiao Chuai crushed the teacup in his hand! On the day Luo Sheng was forcibly taken to the Eastern Palace, she stared at Xiao Chuai, trembling. “Shengsheng, did you toy with me without ever thinking about the consequences?” Reader's Guide: 1.

Blurb: In her previous life, after Lu Weimian was forced to marry Feng Xingyuan, the iron-faced ghost general, she still devoted her heart to her beloved Crown Prince, remaining faithful to him. Instead, she received the news that the Crown Prince had ascended the throne and married her cousin, and that Feng Xingyuan had died in battle. Only then did Lu Weimian realize she was just a pawn in their plot to kill Feng Xingyuan and seize control of his army. Overcome with grief and anger, she fell gravely ill and lost her sight. One day, a coup broke out. Rebel soldiers stormed the palace, the young emperor and empress were executed, and she was seized by the rebel leader, imprisoned deep in the palace, and forced to serve him night after night. She couldn't see who he was, but she was terrified of that madman. When she awoke, Lu Weimian had returned to the day of her wedding. Looking at the man before her, she thought of the Crown Prince and the rebel leader. Only then did she realize how innocent and kind her poor husband was. She vowed that in this life, she would protect him and make sure he never suffered another undeserved calamity. At a banquet, the Crown Prince said her husband was no good. Lu Weimian scoffed. “My husband is refined and courteous. He's nothing like certain people who are fake, rude, and shameless.” Nearby, Feng Xingyuan, hearing praise for the first time, froze. The coldness on his face slowly vanished, and, refined and courteous, he stabbed a prisoner at his feet! * Lu Weimian always raised her husband as if he were a poor little thing. But as she did, she couldn't help thinking that her husband resembled the rebel leader. Ridiculous. Her husband was so innocent; he couldn't possibly be a deranged villain. Until, worried that she might drag him down and cause the tragedy to happen again, Lu Weimian left him a divorce letter and fled. But she was caught before she got far.
