Why Does the Noble Prince Keep Acting Cute? (GB)

Seeking advance interest for my author page!

■ Straight-up GB! A-type male lead, just a niche trope! Not psychological GB! Normal anatomy! Older sister and younger brother! A flirtatious top who becomes a bottom for love! Married first, fall in love later (a secret crush comes true)! One-on-one, both virgins! No babies!

When Luo Yufeng cornered the prince in the stone forest, she wasn't thinking that far ahead.

If he refused to let her examine him, she'd break off the engagement! If he let her examine him, she'd take advantage of him first, then break it off!

She hadn't expected him to not only agree to the examination, but to be so agreeable about it. Broad chest, slim waist, and so tall and elegant she couldn't reach the end of him in one go...

Luo Yufeng thought it over and couldn't make up her mind, so she stopped troubling herself and kicked him!

The prince dropped to his knees on the spot.

Luo Yufeng felt reassured.

Now she could definitely break off the engagement!!!

“Mm...”

A restrained sound drifted into her ears. Luo Yufeng froze and asked, “What?”

His voice was deep, but not heavy, warm and smooth without being cloying. Now it trembled slightly, with a hint of ingratiation.

“It hurts...”

In short: The male lead, who dominates him in both body and mind, tries to win the female lead over by acting sweet and obedient every day. He thinks he's wooing his future wife, but she ends up topping him.

A powerful but overly cautious, masochistic noblewoman vs. a restrained, quick-witted, beautiful and tragic prince

The female lead is 170 cm tall, with a masculine appearance despite being a woman. She's a street-fighting champion, confident and exuberant.

The male lead is 186 cm tall, with a masculine appearance, broad shoulders, a slim waist, and a deep voice.

Younger man, older woman on the surface, but she's actually the younger one.

■ The sexual dynamic is GB, and the story contains explicit scenes!

(Please don't assume it's psychological GB just because the male lead isn't a soft, delicate type! That would really make me sad! I've been digging away at all these secret tunnels with so much effort!)

■ Mostly everyday life, with a little serious plot. It's mainly about the two leads falling in love.

■ This story was serialized over two years. I regularly revise it with care to improve the reading experience. I am not responsible for pirated copies.

(As it's very long, readers who only want the romance can skip the [Plot Chapters] marked in the chapter summaries, or check reader feedback in the comments before purchasing.

You can also refer to the volume labels: Volume One, [A Happy Sign], is more subtle and suggestive; Volume Two, [Knowing Desire], is more heated; Volume Three, [Cherishing Madness, Part One], is where they fall in love. Readers in a hurry can jump to Volume Four, [Cherishing Madness, Part Two], but the plot may not flow smoothly.)

Here are the details of the story, carefully laid out for everyone:

[Worldbuilding]

* After marriage, the male lead joins the female lead's household.

■ But it doesn't fit the “matriarchal” tag! Either men or women can be heads of household!

(I personally think it makes it more exciting when the male lead goes to such lengths to marry into the female lead's family!)

* Women's status in this dynasty has been raised from the top down. In matters of etiquette, women are somewhat more respected than men, which makes for a more comfortable read.

■ This doesn't mean women are supreme! Things are generally balanced. Society isn't that far ahead of its time, but is at a turning point between old and new, and the main cast will continue to reflect on and drive change! This won't be overemphasized, so you don't have to feel burdened by it!

(So there are unlucky people of both sexes, and villains of both sexes, too.)

(But there are no stupid female side characters. If any woman seems a little dim, it's definitely because that's the limit of the author's intelligence.)

■ There are a few scenes that may be frustrating for women, but the main cast will quickly deal with them and deliver a satisfying payoff.

(The story contains no preaching and no lines like “girls should do this or that”!)

[These scenes are marked with “■” in the chapter summaries, so readers who don't like them can skip them.]

* An alternate world! All the other details are there to serve the romance!

The martial arts setting is the technology tree! There are lightness skills, telekinesis, telepathy, poisonous insects, and more.

[Character Notes]

* Everyone has normal anatomy.

(So this isn't a GB world where that arrangement is “natural”! People simply consider this sexual dynamic a common form of intimacy. The GB in this story is driven by the female lead's personality.)

■ The female lead doesn't have children.

(But the story does touch on childbirth, including backstory, a false pregnancy plot, and side-character plots. Everything except the false pregnancy plot is marked “■” in the chapter summaries.)

■ The female lead isn't an “iron-fisted” person in a position of power! If she's had her fun or the male lead is in a bad way, she'll care for him or provide aftercare! (Which actually makes him even more overwhelmed...)

■ No role reversal!

* Both leads are strong (this does not mean the female lead is strong and the male lead is even stronger!!!)

Both are A-types (but the male lead acts obedient! This will come out around the middle of the story. “A” is just a descriptor, not an ABO setting.)

* Other notes:

■ The female lead's mother utterly spoils her daughter, the male lead is extremely virtuous, and the female lead really loves hitting men. A broken pot paired with a broken lid: one likes to hit, the other likes to take it!!!

■ Early on, the female lead has fair skin and slender wrists, but there's a reason for both!

(The female lead's voice sometimes goes soft when she's groggy from sleep. That's a normal physiological thing! It's entirely the male lead's problem if it makes his head go fuzzy!)

(The female lead has no other “delicate” traits! Descriptions of her appearance are mostly confined to Chapter One. The story focuses more on the male lead being “gazed at.”)

(Occasionally, the female lead is “cute” from the male lead's perspective, but he's the only one in the whole world who thinks so! That's because he thinks he's wooing his future wife!)

■ Because of their size difference and their both-A characterization, the male lead won't look like a little bird clinging to her when he's standing. What he looks like lying down depends on the situation.

■ The female lead is lazy and sometimes leans against the male lead. There will be scenes of him carrying her in his arms.

(She's an A, not a “real man” or a “tough guy.” If she has a “mount,” she'll gladly ride him!)

(Of course, she's strong enough to carry him, too.)

[Romance]

Married first, fall in love later! Sweet, satisfying, bittersweet, and spicy!

The female lead doesn't suffer. The male lead suffers a little.

The main draw: “The female lead has to bully the male lead every morning before she can feel refreshed for the day”!

Push and pull, pull and push!

Make the male lead noble yet insecure! Proud yet fiercely competitive! World-weary yet a scheming flirt!

* Other notes:

■ The female lead's perspective is always GB!

(For example, the early scenes with “piercing his ears” and “bedroom accessories.”)

■ But when two A-types face off, the male lead has to gradually brainwash himself into becoming the bottom!

(A true top doesn't become a bottom just because he meets someone even more A than himself. If he switches that easily, it only means he had bottom potential all along!

The male lead is 999-karat, pure top. He has to realize the question of sexual roles, and twist his own psychology, overcoming his body's instinctive resistance, to achieve the ultimate goal of “psychological and physical GB” and complete his emotional arc!)

I had 200,000 words ready when I started posting, so please read with confidence!

The early plot is a little slow. I'll keep working to improve!

This is my first novel, so please be kind! Comments and interaction are welcome!

The steward of Prince Heng's residence recalled the past.

Back then, the servants had dragged this male slave out of a sedan chair. He was deathly pale and didn't move, like a corpse.

The young servant said with a complicated expression, “They say the prince next door got tired of him and offered him to His Highness.” (The female lead isn't taking someone else's leftovers! The male lead isn't being wiped clean!)

“What???”

The steward was speechless, then sneered, and finally looked at the “corpse” with a troubled expression.

“Even if he isn't dead now, he'll be dead any minute...”

The day the male slave was summoned into Prince Heng's room, the steward told the servant in charge of supplies to buy an extra bundle of funeral paper.

But to his utter surprise, the man stayed in there from day till night and still didn't come out.

The young servant whispered, “The prince really... She'd already crippled him! Now she's stained His Highness's carpet...”

The steward stared at him in disbelief.

“His Highness didn't smile as he killed him?!”

The young servant sighed.

“He did kill someone...”

The steward nodded, thinking, As expected of me. I had the foresight to buy that funeral paper!

The gates opened, and someone staggered out, supported by a servant as he was led into a side room.

The steward's eyes bulged like copper bells.

“H-how is he still alive?!”

The young servant continued, “Sigh... He did kill someone, but it was the wet nurse he killed...”

(Did His Highness kill a male slave today?)
