The Princess and the Witch Are Getting Cozy

Blurb: Cool-headed, composed witch x sweet but secretly scheming, tea-loving princess The witch Honghua was eaten. She raised a "new Honghua" in her tower. She lulled her to sleep, bathed her, and gave her jewels... Princess Honghua was obedient, too, just a little clingy... The witch once again pried the octopus clinging to her leg off and sighed helplessly. Later, the witch returned the princess to the city as promised. But suddenly the princess stopped being obedient. She sniffed all over the witch like a puppy, then gripped her chin and warned her: Don't leave me. Later still, somehow their lips met. The witch pressed her lips together. Mm, she was a good kisser. I want to kiss her again. So the next day, she kissed her once more, only for the princess to point at her nose and call her disgusting. The witch was heartbroken and left... --The princess's perspective Velvet had lived at the very top of the tower since childhood. Every day, she leaned by the window waiting for the witch to return. When she was bored, she took out her jewels and played with them. The jewels and the witch were both hers, so the witch was Jewel. Mm, that made perfect sense. Later, she found out that Jewel only wanted to use her life to revive her lost love. So she cut her hair and broke things off with the witch. But the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. After being together for so long, all they'd done was kiss? The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She grabbed the witch's chin. "Hey, let's make a deal. Give yourself to me, and I'll give you my life."

Here's the blurb: Rigid, innocent country girl x refined scoundrel (?) from the city Blurb: Zhou Qianling returned to her hometown to pay respects to her ancestors and met a simple country woman. Her usually calm heart stirred. The woman was rigid and old-fashioned. Zhou Qianling slowly made her move, drawing closer and tempting her, until she finally got what she wanted and they shared a forbidden night. Then she left without a word. * Before meeting the woman from the city, Wu Meilai had never known what it meant to be gay. Without realizing it, she slowly drew closer to her, and in the end, lost her mind and slept with her. Once her senses returned, Wu Meilai was terrified. She was panicked that she'd fooled around with a woman, and ashamed that the woman's exploring fingers had brought her pleasure. Their forbidden relationship made her want to run away. She avoided the woman, hid from her, but in the end, she saw her on the bus leaving the village. Zhou Qianling had left. Wu Meilai should have felt relieved, but an inexplicable emptiness settled in her heart. She began looking forward to winter, only to hear that the woman from the city had found someone else. Wu Meilai no longer cared whether their relationship was forbidden. That very night, she packed her things and rushed into the city… Reader advisory: - 1v1, HE, both leads' first love in body and heart - No one turns straight: the female lead is naturally gay, but doesn't know it - Rural realism (no love rivals), with a terrible father, a dim-witted younger brother, and a few unnamed male extras Theme: Believe that love can overcome every barrier.
