My next book will be "Let's Go Home and Have Dinner Together After the Breakup." The tension will be off the charts!
Tang Nuanrong transmigrates into a book as a pampered, beautiful fake legitimate daughter, the kind whose identity is exposed and who gets banished to the countryside.
System: [There are two ways to return to the modern world: 1. Save the seven male leads and max out their affection meters. 2. Get rich through farming and earn ten thousand gold coins.]
Tang Nuanrong: [Seven money-making tools? Sounds good to me.]
Later.
In a damp, hazy alley, a brooding young man pins her against the wall, his eyes red and wet as he asks in a fierce voice, "Do you love me, or my stuffy, boring older brother?"
Tang Nuanrong's hair is slightly damp. She lightly presses a slender, pale fingertip to his lips and smiles, her eyes sparkling. "Do I have to choose between just the two of you?"
After all, besides the proper older brother who broke his vows for her and the wild younger brother she tamed, there's also...
The ruthless chancellor, who wields power over the court, bends to love her, turning from treacherous minister to her retainer.
The assassin, whose sword tip drips with blood, blushes furiously when she teases him, turning from cold-blooded killer to devoted dog.
Her frail, mute childhood friend builds her a golden cage with his own hands, turning from insecure to possessive and obsessive.
The gentle, refined gentleman develops a dark desire to keep her all to himself, turning from aloof to seductive.
The dashing young general goes from scorning her to realizing she's irresistible, turning from arrogant to jealous.
Every one of them is bewitched by love, competing to be used by her as a money-making tool.
Tang Nuanrong quickly squeezes ten thousand gold coins out of them. In high spirits, she leaves a confession letter and fakes her death to return to the modern world.
Who could have guessed she'd be caught and dragged back before she knew it?
The System is deeply apologetic: [I got it wrong. Both parts of the mission are required. Now, Host, please save the seven male leads.]
Tang Nuanrong curses furiously in her heart, but can only huddle in a corner, trembling with tears in her eyes.
Before her stand the beautiful, tragic male leads, all turned dark after learning the truth about her strategy.
All seven of them, every last one, stare at her with icy eyes...
- A battle for the heroine, with everyone hopelessly in love and going mad for her
- Content warning: includes a brothers-sharing-the-heroine scenario, and the heroine is a money-grubber who doesn't care about men
- One-on-one romance, with one-sided feelings from the others. The male leads are all chaste in body and mind.
The tension-filled "Let's Go Home and Have Dinner Together After the Breakup" is now available to add to your reading list:
As purchasing manager on a smart home project, Zhong Lingjia hosts a dinner for Han Beiheng, CEO of the group that monopolizes the chip supply.
Looking at the man in his suit, she smiles as if nothing is amiss. "Mr. Han, it's been a long time."
Fireworks outside glitter gold, illuminating his sharply defined features. Han Beiheng's expression is utterly indifferent. "Please have someone else from your company handle this."
His words are devoid of warmth. Zhao Manshi's "Dad says you should come home for dinner" catches in her throat.
In that moment, she inexplicably remembers the seventh year Han Beiheng stayed at her home.
Her parents had already gone to bed. Her fever had reached 39.2 degrees, and he carried her to the hospital through the bitter wind.
Her forehead was burning. Half-conscious, she pressed herself against his neck and mumbled, "Brother, you like me too."
The handsome, refined boy pressed his lips together and trudged through the crunching snow, one deep step and one shallow. Only after a long while did he scold her in a low voice for being ridiculous.
*
In the height of summer in 2018, the global economy was in a slump. Han Beiheng was one of the few who profited from the chip crisis, and he rose at once to become a new tycoon in the business world.
Everyone said he was cold and ruthless, with an unyielding pride, and would never bow his head to anyone or anything.
Only Zhao Manshi knew that every Qingming Festival, after getting back together with her, Han Beiheng would travel day and night to that impoverished little town.
He would kneel all night in the damp mud before her mother's grave.
"A marriage certificate they could never get, a beloved they could never let go"
- They lived under the same roof, but the leads are not blood-related and are not registered in the same household
Theme: Join hands to build a better life against the odds, and find love and freedom
