Bend the Beauty's Waist

After transmigrating, Jiang Sese finally managed to accept the fact that she had come to ancient times. She was an ordinary commoner living in the countryside, and her days were fairly peaceful.

But everything changed after she rescued a young gentleman in the hills.

At first, Jiang Sese had only meant to save him out of kindness. She never expected that, instead of gratitude from Liu Wuse, she would face his ruthless and relentless domination.

No matter how hard she tried, she seemed unable to escape his grasp.

At the height of their passion, Liu Wuse's long, distinct fingers brushed over Jiang Sese's raven-black hair. His gaze was as malicious and covetous as ever. "Sese, if you want to run, then go ahead. You'll only get caught and brought back anyway."

"This game of running away and being caught is rather fun, don't you think?"

His casual, nonchalant tone seemed ready to shatter every bone in her body, one by one. Jiang Sese turned her face away, concealing the seething hatred in her eyes.

If she had known that the man she saved was a venomous snake, she should have killed him without hesitation.

Jiang Sese regretted it bitterly, but it was too late to turn back now.

To escape Liu Wuse, Jiang Sese leaped across rivers and jumped from a golden tower. She had even risked everything in a desperate fight against him.

But in the end, it was all futile, leaving her filled with despair.

Amid the swaying willows and deep courtyards, Jiang Sese lay on the ground, tears in her eyes as she clutched Liu Wuse's robe. Every word dripped with hatred and grief. "Liu Wuse, you dream if you think I'll ever love you. You were born evil, and one day you'll die a horrible death."

Liu Wuse said nothing. His expression unchanged, he scooped her up from the ground. When he carried her to the bed, his movements grew harsher, almost cruel. "Jiang Sese, even if you die, you'll die by my side."

She had only reached out to help him in kindness, never realizing that a villain had been secretly coveting her.

He built her a gilded cage, while she did everything she could to escape, to no avail.

It turned out the story of the farmer and the snake was true.

Through blood and tears, she would not be a concubine.

"PS: One-on-one, both leads' first time, happy ending."

① Coming next: The Concubine. Please add it to your collection!

When Song Heng was promoted and transferred back to the capital, a minor official spent a fortune to send him a beauty as a gift.

She was as beautiful as a flower, with skin like ice and jade. Even Song Heng, a man with a placid heart who kept his distance from women, couldn't help being moved and kept her by his side.

But he never expected that beneath her gentle appearance lay a fiercely unyielding spirit, and an even more stubborn temperament.

Song Heng used every method at his disposal before he could finally tame her, and even then, only barely.

At the height of their passion, he gently stroked her raven-black hair and said with a hint of pity, "As long as you stay by my side and behave, I won't mistreat you in the future."

The beauty, so unyielding until then, obediently wrapped her arms around his neck and softly replied.

Half a month later, Song Heng was ordered to inspect Jiangnan. When he returned to the capital, all he received was news of the beauty's death.

He was devastated and listless for a long time. He even called off the marriage that had already been arranged, and became so reckless that he planned to marry a memorial tablet.

Three years later, Song Heng returned to Jiangnan on an inspection tour. By then, he had become a powerful prince with a different surname. There, he unexpectedly met a beautiful married woman.

She was radiant and lovely, and looked exactly like his deceased wife.

Song Heng's deep eyes blazed with fury. If he had been able to tame her once, he could do it again.

One day, he would make her bow to him completely.

To Fu Qingyu, Song Heng was a prison she could never escape, no matter how hard she tried.

But she was no sparrow in his hand. Even if it meant destroying them both, she would leave him for good.

Song Heng was born into nobility, enjoyed a smooth career, and possessed all the power in the world. Yet when it came to love, he suffered endlessly.

Even if Fu Qingyu hated him to the bone, he would never let her go.

On a spring day, with apricot blossoms and a light drizzle, Xie Qingyan happened to see a maid when he returned to his residence. From that moment on, his heart was stirred, and he couldn't stop thinking about her.

With her willow-like waist and hibiscus face, she easily caught his eye as she walked through the grounds beneath a pale yellow oil-paper umbrella.

Perhaps she heard someone calling her from behind, because the beauty turned around with a charming smile. Her eyes sparkled, and her beauty was so breathtaking that it seemed to overshadow the spring scene filling the courtyard.

From the shadows, Xie Qingyan gazed at her for a long time. The more he looked, the more intrigued and inflamed he became. A wildfire raged within him, and he wanted to make her his.

The beauty he desired was his, and he wouldn't hesitate to use any means necessary to take her.

After transmigrating, Gu Mingyu became the maid serving the young lady of the household. The young lady was gentle and kind to her servants, and life was peaceful and uneventful. Gu Mingyu was content. Her only wish was to save enough money to buy her freedom and leave the household, so she could live freely and without restraint.

But when the heir of the household was promoted and returned to the capital, he took a liking to her and wanted her as his concubine.

Gu Mingyu naturally refused. One rainy day, she hurried to him beneath her oil-paper umbrella. Weeping, she knelt on the ground for a long time and said, "My lord, please understand. I will never be a concubine in this life..."

But the only answer she received was the cold, uncompromising words of the jade-like young master. "It's your good fortune that I've taken a liking to you. If you don't want to, you can always kill yourself."

In the end, Gu Mingyu cried for a long time, but could only resign herself to her fate. She thought that one day, she would escape from his side.

In Xie Qingyan's eyes, Gu Mingyu was nothing but a canary. As long as he didn't let go, she would never fly from his palm. But he never expected that this little bird would risk her life to escape him.

After her attempted escape was discovered, Xie Qingyan stood by the dock, his cool gaze fixed on her slender figure. His eyes held nothing but certainty that he would get what he wanted. "Gu Mingyu, if you're willing to come back, I can let bygones be bygones..."

He had always been certain that she could never leave him.

But before he could finish, Gu Mingyu gave a cold laugh. "Xie Qingyan, dream on. Every day and night I've spent with you has made me sick."

With that, she jumped without hesitation into the surging river, her frail figure utterly resolute.

Long afterward, Xie Qingyan still dreamed of her leaping into the river. At last, he understood that she had never been a sparrow trapped in a cage.

But it was too late.
