[The Male Lead's Story]

Mu Chenyuan loathes women and has no warmth in him! None of the women who admire him dares to reveal her feelings.

But deep in his heart lies a forbidden sore spot.

The one place in his heart is occupied by his dead, unattainable first love.

Until a woman nine years younger than him appears. Looking at her face, which resembles his first love's by seventy percent, Mu Chenyuan doesn't think much of it: They may look alike, but there's no comparison between them inside!

That day, in full view of everyone, she fell right in front of him, but he deliberately stepped aside.

His expression was detached, his hawk-like eyes proud, indifferent, and cold, as if he had seen through the world.

No one knew that from that moment on, an ardent passion had taken root in the depths of his heart, impossible to extinguish...

What can tempered steel do against a silken touch?

Three months later, they met again.

A reunion that had been planned for a long time.

But she said, "If you don't love me, don't hurt me!"

"I don't want to be someone else's shadow."

"Be yourself!"

Later, beneath a sky full of stars, Mu Chenyuan's eyes were bloodshot as he gripped her slender waist, desire filling his gaze.

"Even now, I still regret listening to you that night. I should have made love to you!"

"Baby..."

His desire-tinged voice brushed past her ear as his palm wandered over the small of her back. "Let me have my turn with you, hmm?"

"The circle around the Milky Way, its orbit fixed for billions of years, turns ever closer to the world where you are", from the song "Planet"

[The Female Lead's Story]

Ling Jiao thought her life would be plain and uneventful. Then, when she was twenty, a man who should never have crossed paths with her walked into her world.

A powerful, wealthy family. A heaven-blessed son. The dream man of countless women.

It turned out that even two parallel lines could intersect one day.

But she didn't care for him. She even hated him! Why would a man as godlike as him insist on saving her?

Ling Jiao's only close friend told her, "Mu Chenyuan stayed away from women because he hadn't met you yet! When a man like him meets the woman he truly loves, everything he's kept suppressed in his heart will be released like a raging flood..."

Danger, ready to erupt at any moment.

Tenderness, shattered at a touch.

In the end, she surrendered!

Ling Jiao didn't know that after he lost her, the world gained an anniversary named after her.

"I see the green mountains, but not you. My beauty is spent, like a god", from the online poem "Chang'an Night"

Reader's Guide

1. Nine-year age gap. Both are virgins. The female lead has only been touched externally. Only the male lead, the second male lead who gets the girl, is refined on the surface; he has his own reasons for disliking women. (① comes from a poetry collection from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.)

2. The male lead is completely love-struck. There are no misunderstandings between the leads, no rivalry between women, only rivalry between men.

3. Readers with high moral standards for characters should not read. If you feel uncomfortable, leave immediately.

4. The characters' values do not represent the author's own.

Next novel: I Had No Intention of Becoming an Immortal. Blurb:

A sweet, slow-witted girl × a handsome, arrogant, top-tier charmer

[The Female Lead's Story]

The heroine is petite and graceful, but because she was born prematurely, she is naturally slow-witted.

She is unlike other people: whenever she cries, flowers and plants wither. The villagers are all afraid of her, and when she was three, her birth parents entrusted her to an immortal master from Mount Bukong.

Mount Bukong has a rule: it only accepts male disciples, never female ones, so the heroine has presented herself as a boy since childhood.

At fourteen, she wears flowing white robes and has a delicate, lovely face. To hide her curvy figure, she has to wrap herself in six layers of cloth every day.

By day, she chops wood and waters flowers; by night, she meditates. Her cultivation is still at the first Qi Refining level, but her life is peaceful enough.

One day, her parents come to visit. Seeing that she is still as slow-witted as ever, they give her a serious reminder:

"Remember, you're the immortal master's disciple. Do whatever the immortal master tells you, and don't ask questions."

The heroine nods and takes their words to heart.

One time, while bathing with the immortal master in a medicinal spring, she is ordered to take off her clothes.

She thinks it over: How can she possibly take her clothes off?

But her parents told her to obey the immortal master in everything.

She has a flash of inspiration and fetches a piece of white cloth. "I suppose I can, but first I'll have to cover your eyes."

A few years later, the heroine's cultivation has grown tremendously, all the way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage.

At a sect competition, her parents and younger brother watch in disbelief as she easily defeats all the disciples single-handedly.

Her younger brother's eyes grow as round as bells. "S-Sister, how did your cultivation advance so fast?"

The heroine thinks it over carefully. Every five days of work, she gets two days off, and the immortal master also gives her spiritual power.

She replies with a silly smile, "The immortal master said I could have a double rest."

Younger brother: Double cultivation?!

The immortal master, knocked off his pedestal: ?

[The Male Lead's Story]

He discovers by chance that she is a girl, but never exposes her.

Ever since the day he was injured, whenever the heroine comes into close contact with him, he notices that her meager spiritual power grows at a wild pace.

She repeatedly tests his limits under the pretext of treating his wounds.

He thinks: Once my injuries are healed, I'll kill her!

Later, as the immortal master watches the heroine blossom, his smile takes on a more suggestive edge.

The disciples think their master has changed. He seems more and more attached to the heroine.

One night, the carefree immortal master finally can't resist. He leads her to a jade bed he has carefully prepared and pins her frost-white wrists down firmly, coaxing her:

"Good girl, I've watched you grow up. You're pure-hearted, but people can be wicked. I'll give you all the spiritual power in my body... How about it?"

Theme: Every woman deserves a beautiful life, regardless of wealth or status.
