Sleepless Tonight

The Tan family of Beicheng is a distinguished and powerful clan, with a vast business empire spanning finance, real estate, entertainment, and more. Their family rules are strict, and they speak only in measured words.

The eldest young master, Tan Zhi Du, has always been considerate and polite, yet cold and old-fashioned. Every decision he makes puts the family's interests first.

So he married Ming Le, the second daughter of the Zhongsheng Group.

Ming Le was the daughter the Ming family had lost. She had unexpectedly spent more than twenty years in the countryside and had only been found in the past few days. Before she could enjoy the privileges of being the second young lady, she was hurriedly married to the Tan family's eldest young master.

Everyone was betting that Tan Zhi Du would soon tire of this vulgar woman with her countrified ways.

Little did they know, Tan Zhi Du had never intended to be a real husband to her, and didn't care in the slightest.

*

Ming Le didn't care whether their marriage was real or just for show.

But not long after the wedding, whenever she came home late at night, a light was always left on for her at the villa.

When she went to a banquet, he had someone prepare a pair of comfortable flats for her.

Then one day, the housekeeper cheerfully told her that all the flowers in a patch of the courtyard had been pulled out to make room for the madam to grow vegetables.

One day, her older sister came to visit Ming Le at the Tan family home and asked if she had fallen for the head of the Tan family yet.

Ming Le crouched beside her vegetable patch and fell silent.

Someone passing by didn't hear her answer. That night, he cornered her in her room and wouldn't let her leave. His knuckles brushed her taut neckline as he asked in a hoarse, restrained voice, "Why didn't you answer? Was I not good enough in bed last night?"

[The night Tan Zhi Du fell in love with Ming Le, he couldn't sleep.]

The story of a man who goes from imposing rules and holding prejudices to understanding, appreciating, and falling for a woman, until he treasures her above all else.

Coming soon: Spring Fills My Eyes

A love-chasing story about Tan Zhi Ting, the younger brother of this book's hero!

Blurb:

After her family goes bankrupt, Lu Yingkuang becomes a part-time actress. Her first job is to pretend to be someone's girlfriend at his engagement party and ruin it.

Lu Yingkuang read every word, frowning the whole time. Though she was puzzled, she still accepted the job.

There was only one reason: the pay was too good.

She prepared thoroughly, but when she actually arrived, she was still stunned.

Because her employer was... the boy she'd secretly loved in high school.

Tan Zhi Ting.

The Tan family of Beicheng is a distinguished and powerful clan, well-known to everyone, with strict family rules.

But the second young master, Tan Zhi Ting, is an exception: laid-back and carefree, he loves composing music, teasing dogs, and singing lyrics. He's known as the Tan family's outlaw, obeying none of the rules and ignoring every reprimand.

He had only ever existed in her ears.

Lu Yingkuang suppressed the turmoil in her heart and performed her role perfectly. The engagement was called off.

She thought that was the end of it.

But Tan Zhi Ting came to find her. "My dad doesn't believe it. We have to keep up the act."

And so Lu Yingkuang began entering his world, becoming a decorative girlfriend.

Six months later, with enough money saved, Lu Yingkuang didn't want to get in any deeper and decided to end the dangerous part-time job on her own. "Mr. Tan, about me pretending to be your girlfriend, I think it's about time we..."

Before she could finish, Tan Zhi Ting raised his eyes and cut her off. "Make-believe into the real thing? Sure."

Lu Yingkuang: "?"
