[Fake Death + Pursuing His Wife] [Mutual Secret Crush]

Completed novel: The Fake Heiress Leaves with Nothing. Next novel: Don't Save Men Whose Origins Are Unknown, a forceful-possession story. Blurb at the very bottom.

Zhuo Heng was a jade-like gentleman, renowned throughout the capital. He was self-disciplined, courteous, gentle, and dignified. Everyone said he doted on his younger sister, Zhuo Li, with all his heart. If she wanted something, he would pluck it from the heavens and place it before her.

Until one day, the young girl, just beginning to understand love, tugged at his sleeve and gazed up at him innocently. "Brother, what does the ritual between a husband and wife mean?" That night, Zhuo Heng sat alone in the Buddhist hall until dawn, yet in his dreams, he crossed the line.

In his dream, red silk swayed as he lifted her bridal veil with his own hands. The sweet, tender voice that usually called him "Brother" changed its tune amid the billowing red curtains, pleading for his mercy.

From then on, Zhuo Heng changed. He began avoiding her as if she were a venomous snake, suppressing his filthy, frenzied thoughts as cold sweat soaked his back. He thought that if he went far enough, he could return to the path of the sages.

Zhuo Li lost her mother when she was young, but at least her father and brother loved her dearly.

Her elder brother, Zhuo Heng, was gentle and dignified. Whenever Zhuo Li wanted something, he would find a way to get it for her.

Zhuo Li thought her life would always be like this, but as she grew older, her brother began avoiding her.

He no longer affectionately ruffled her hair or personally painted a floral ornament on her forehead. Even seeing him once became a distant hope. Zhuo Li thought miserably: Her brother must be tired of her.

She didn't know that in the hidden places she could not see, Zhuo Heng watched her like a shadow, his gaze filled with an almost pathological yearning and greed. Nor did she know how, in that absurd spring dream, he kissed the tears at the corners of her eyes and wanted to take her apart and devour her.

Don't Save Men Whose Origins Are Unknown

A forceful-possession story

[Cool, elegant embroidery beauty vs. the vilest, most twisted Director of State Affairs]

Ning Yuan knew that in these chaotic times, her peerlessly beautiful body was a source of danger. So she vanished without a trace and hid in the mountains. She thought that if she concealed herself well enough, she could escape being consumed by the shackles of feudal morality. Unfortunately, she saved Song Huai, the darkest and most deranged enforcer in Hanshan City.

Song Huai was a man of sinister designs, the Director of State Affairs whom everyone in Hanshan City feared.

When Ning Yuan saved Song Huai, there was a knife at her throat. She knew you shouldn't save a man you found by the roadside, but with a knife against her neck, she had no choice. She only hoped to save his life and never see him again.

When Song Huai was saved by Ning Yuan, her cool fragrance lingered at his nose. He thought: A body like hers belongs locked in my tent.

He took Ning Yuan from her little courtyard and trapped her in the palm of his hand. He wanted to be the only one in her eyes. Even if those eyes were brimming with tears, they had to be shed for him.

After that, red candles flickered night after night. His scent clung to her, while her fragrance covered him.

Both leads are sexually inexperienced.

The male lead is deranged, vile, and sick in the head, and refuses treatment. If that's not for you, please click the X and pick another story.

Theme: Words held between one's lips will one day make you regret never having said them aloud.
