After the Demoness Picked Up a Green-Tea Puppy

(Wrongly accused fake demoness older heroine x younger green tea male lead)

Ming Yuanzhi is a notorious demoness known throughout the land.

They say she betrayed her senior brother and murdered her junior brother, so her master cast her out of the sect, after which she founded the Rakshasa Sect.

Now, this demoness has not only taken to murder and arson, she has even started abducting men!

They say she took a fancy to the new leader of the martial world, Xia Huaiqing, and, relying on her formidable martial arts, simply carried him off!

The righteous factions were furious. They gathered their forces, intent on conquering the Rakshasa Sect.

Ming Yuanzhi went out to take care of some business and came back with a young man she'd rescued.

The young man had a face as handsome as jade, and a faint air of detachment about his eyes. At a glance, he looked every bit the noble scion of a righteous sect.

The sect members said, "Sect Master, that kid is obviously from a righteous sect! We can't save him! Those people spread rumors about us committing murder and arson all the time. They're always smearing us!"

Ming Yuanzhi replied, "There's no need to pay attention to rumors."

Before she had even finished speaking, the young master, who had been unconscious for a long time, let out a groan and woke up. He rose, pretending he was fine, and thanked Ming Yuanzhi. Then he stumbled and fell right into her arms.

Ming Yuanzhi hurriedly caught him, her voice turning soft and gentle.

The sect members: ...

Ming Yuanzhi likes Xia Huaiqing's looks. She likes protecting him when he seems so frail, and she likes seeing how his whole world seems to revolve around her.

What? You say his name is also Xia Huaiqing, the same as the new leader of the martial world?

He's so bad at martial arts. It must be a coincidence, definitely a coincidence.

Until...

Xia Huaiqing pinned Ming Yuanzhi to the bed with one hand. She tried to struggle gently, holding back her strength.

She couldn't break free.

Oh?

Xia Huaiqing's eyes were bloodshot as he whispered by her neck, "Sister, are you going to abandon me again?"

My Husband from the Swapped Marriage Is Actually Devoted to Me (Reborn)

A sickly, wooden beauty x a rugged general. The male lead is reborn and fights to claim her.

Xie Ciying got married, but not to the second son of the Xiao family, whom she had been betrothed to for years. Instead, she married the second son's older brother, the eldest son of the Xiao family, Xiao Zhiyuan.

The change came about because the once fallen Xiao family suddenly rose to power, prompting Xie Ciying's father to seek an advantageous marriage and rush to wed his biological daughter to the Xiao family's second son.

As an adopted daughter living under someone else's roof in the Xie household, Xie Ciying could only accept this absurd marriage swap and step aside for her younger sister.

The marriage to Xiao Zhiyuan was the "compensation" the Xiao and Xie families agreed to give Xie Ciying.

A "compensation" she couldn't refuse.

Rumor had it that Xiao Zhiyuan had no regard for propriety, was violent by nature, and had a bloodthirsty streak. Even now that Xiao Zhiyuan had won great military honors, no respectable family in the capital wanted to marry into his family.

The marriage swap only made Xiao Zhiyuan the laughingstock of the capital.

"M-My lady, the eldest Xiao family's young master has suffered such a great humiliation. How could he possibly agree to this marriage? Won't he slap us to death?"

Xie Ciying trembled as she clutched her trusted maid's hand. "D-Don't be afraid. If he refuses, I'll ask to leave on my own. I-I won't cause him any trouble."

Ever since the Xiao family had risen to prominence, Xie Ciying had begun having a strange dream.

In the dream, the Xiao family never rose to power. She married the second son as promised, only to be tormented and pushed aside. She wanted to escape, but couldn't, and spent year after year in the Xiao residence. In the end, she died of illness there.

In that vast Xiao residence, there was only one person who had ever wanted to help her.

That person was now her husband.

Putting aside the strange dream, married life was far more comfortable than Xie Ciying had imagined.

All that talk of him being violent by nature and bloodthirsty was nonsense.

Although Xiao Zhiyuan felt nothing for her, he was still willing to treat her with courtesy.

Being able to live in peace was already enough to satisfy Xie Ciying.

The only thing worth mentioning about her peaceful life was that Xiao Zhiyuan had a few harmless quirks.

For instance, he had his attendants badmouth the second young master in front of her, now and then.

And he would send people to eavesdrop outside the second young master's room, then share all the juicy secrets and gossip with her.

"Miss Ziyun from Huixian Tower just slipped in through the side gate and went to Second Brother's courtyard."

? Wasn't Miss Ziyun involved with Prince Yu...?

Xie Ciying blinked. Xiao Zhiyuan's words had whetted her curiosity. How was the Xiao family's gossip even juicier than the Xie family's?

1. The male lead is reborn, while the heroine gradually recovers memories of her past life in her dreams.

2. Includes some household intrigue, but it's not heavy or grim. The household intrigue involves infighting among members of the Xie and Xiao families. The male lead has no other women in his household.

3. The heroine did not die of illness in her past life.
