----Novel Blurb----

Yan Ke has been reborn!

In her previous life, she was betrayed by a scumbag, cruelly abandoned by her biological parents, framed and sent to prison by a fake heiress, and, after finally serving her sentence, run over and killed on the spot by the scumbag!

Thinking back on her miserable past life, Yan Ke let out a chilling laugh. This time, she would no longer hide her sharp edges or endure in silence. Instead, she would go completely off the rails and do whatever she wanted.

When the scumbag showered her with vows of eternal love and sweet promises, Yan Ke slapped him across the face. "Sorry, I don't accept empty promises. Get lost!"

When the fake heiress, relying on their parents' endless doting, insulted Yan Ke, the real heiress who had only recently been brought home, Yan Ke gave her a slap. "Did human evolution leave you behind, or did you somehow miss nine years of compulsory education? You're so stupid you can't even talk properly."

When faced with her heartless parents, who couldn't tell right from wrong, Yan Ke grabbed her suitcase and walked straight out the door without looking back. "What kind of garbage family could possibly be worthy of my noble soul?!"

But!

After being reborn, Yan Ke was forced to bind herself to a life-extending System. Every day, it cruelly deducted 100 points from her life force.

Staring at her life force as it neared zero, Yan Ke almost spat up blood. There was only one way to increase it:

Have intimate physical contact with the person designated by the System.

But could someone please tell her why the person designated by the System was the ruthless, fearsome Ninth Master of the Mo family?

Although, by a twist of fate, this man later became her nominal fiance, Ninth Master was said to hate being touched. The last person who tried to get physically close to him had weeds growing three feet high over their grave...

Yan Ke swallowed nervously, on the verge of tears. System, are you messing with me? You can't set me up like this!

Faced with the merciless System, Yan Ke had no choice but to grit her teeth and inch closer to the big shot, then seize the chance to complete the kiss, cuddle, and princess-carry combo while he wasn't paying attention.

But just as she finished flirting and was about to make a run for it, the next second the man yanked her into his arms and pinned her hands and feet. The pleasant scent of sandalwood surrounded her, and Mo Sichen's deep, melodious voice brushed against her eardrum.

"Just how many times a day are you going to kiss me? Hmm?"

Yan Ke guiltily avoided his gaze. "If I say I was forced to, would you believe me...?"

Mo Sichen raised his eyelids slightly. A bone-chilling cold gleamed in his dark eyes, and his voice was low. "So you're planning to take what you want and then deny it?"

Alarm bells rang in Yan Ke's head. She hurriedly changed her tune, stammering, "I-I-I'll take responsibility for you!"

Please, just don't take my life!

Only then did Mo Sichen smile. His smile was more dangerous than a poppy. He lifted a lock of Yan Ke's hair to his lips and kissed it, his low voice laced with temptation. "I'll make an exception and let you kiss me a few extra times today."

Looking at that handsome face in front of her, Yan Ke couldn't help bursting into tears. She's doomed. The big shot is scarier than the villain. What if she can't take it anymore?!

1. A rising voice actress who goes off the rails in public but is timid and adorable in private x a cunning, seductive big shot who is ruthless in public and spoils his wife without limits in private

2. Both leads are each other's first and only

3. A sweet romance! The super-sweet kind!

Here's my upcoming novel, Full Moon Falls. Please add it to your collection, dear readers~

Mutual pining | Reunion after years apart | Second chance romance

A rising star in the business world x a rare inheritor of the traditional craft of tongcao flower-making

1.

Bai Luoning was so absorbed in learning the craft of tongcao flowers that she never imagined that one day she, an unnoticed nobody who was practically invisible, would become famous around campus because of her childhood friend.

Her childhood friend was Ji Yanli, the school's universally known heartthrob: aloof, proud, and top-tier in everything from his looks to his family background and academic record. He was a true favorite of heaven.

One day, however, one of his friends asked out of the blue, "Everyone at school says you and Bai Luoning grew up together and have always been close. Is that true?"

Ji Yanli's eyes never paused on the page. His voice was cool and distant. "We're not close."

Later, on a night of torrential rain, the heavy curtain of rain blurred their vision.

Ji Yanli was drenched, his eyes red. He clutched Bai Luoning's wrist so tightly his fingertips turned white, and pleaded in a choked whisper, "Can we please not break up?"

2.

They met again four years later.

Ji Yanli personally brought Bai Luoning a wedding invitation and invited her to his sister's wedding banquet.

Unfortunately, that night, a burglar broke into the Bai family home, injured her grandfather, and destroyed the piece she had spent more than half a year painstakingly making.

Ji Yanli, who should have left, returned just then. He severely punished the burglar who had hurt Bai Luoning, saved her grandfather in time, and helped Bai Luoning repair her damaged work.

Later, Ji Yanli moved into her home, claiming it was to care for her injured grandfather, and stayed with her day and night.

Bai Luoning didn't want any more entanglements with him. She avoided him at every turn and always kept things polite and courteous.

Until one day, Ji Yanli pinned her against the wall when she tried to avoid him again. A kiss carrying four years of longing came crashing down.

He gripped her wrist hard, as if punishing her, and bent close to her ear. His warm breath brushed her earlobe, and his hoarse voice was thick with heartache as he questioned her word by word. "Bai Luoning, have you never regretted breaking up with me, not even for a second?"

"In these four years, have you not missed me even a little?!"

He had left red marks on her slender, pale wrist. At last, his voice broke. His eyes red, he growled, "But I've missed you so much I've nearly gone insane!"

-What you think is a reunion after years apart was actually something I'd been plotting for a long time.

A rising star in the business world x a rare inheritor of the traditional craft of tongcao flower-making

Proud and sharp-tongued but soft-hearted x gentle and sensitive
