Note: I've started updating the other book first. I'll update this one when I feel like it.
A gloomy female student and a venture capital big shot
[Blurb]
Shang Jixue has temporarily lost her sight. The doctor says she will gradually go completely blind.
This has made the darkness in her grow stronger and stronger.
She begins to crave rebellion and transgression, hoping to tear apart her life as it draws its last breath.
Until she meets Lou Jie'an.
Though he seems like a ruthless fox who probably drinks innocent people's blood every day, someone who might crush her as easily as an ant,
Shang Jixue still decides to provoke him first, using sex to attach herself to his money and power.
For years, they remain entangled.
She holds him and asks him again and again, "Will you be this good to other women in the future, too?"
He always nods, unconcerned, and says yes.
Jixue finds it a little regrettable. He's rich and highborn, and won't stop for any woman.
She always wants to leave him, she thinks. Then I'll lock him up.
The time her sight disappears completely, she decides to let him go.
She chooses to leave him with the money in her pocket.
After half a month drifting at sea, she climbs the gangway of a liner bound for home from North America.
As she closes her eyes to feel the harbor waves rising gently in the wind and rain, she doesn't notice someone standing behind her, watching from higher up.
Key points:
1. The heroine gradually loses her sight, but recovers in the end.
2. The heroine is scheming and has yandere tendencies. At first, she treats the male lead as a tool.
3. There is no long separation in the middle, so no second-chance romance.
4. The leads are both nationals of their respective countries.
5. The male lead will be written as pretty awful too, but he won't mistreat the heroine and isn't aloof. He should be an interesting fox.
6. The male lead is five years older than the heroine, younger than his nephew. They are each other's first and only sexual partners, and the story is pure.
7. The blurb will be revised to match the story.
8. The book was originally titled The Goldfish Princess.
Theme: Finding hope in hardship
