Author: He Ao

Synopsis

New novel, Transmigrated and Married My Archrival on the Day I Arrived, is now updating. See the blurb at the very bottom.

01

"Your eyes are beautiful."

Nan Feng knew Ren Jingsheng wasn't praising his eyes. He was simply looking through them and seeing Nan Xing.

Nan Feng had loved Ren Jingsheng for years, so much that he resorted to low, underhanded methods to force him into a relationship.

But Nan Feng couldn't fool himself. He had never wanted just Ren Jingsheng's body.

He wanted Ren Jingsheng to love him.

Then, in the instant an out-of-control car came barreling toward them, Nan Feng threw himself at Ren Jingsheng, while Ren Jingsheng threw himself at Nan Xing.

At that moment, Nan Feng finally understood: Ren Jingsheng would never love him.

Even though Ren Jingsheng had once said, "I believe you," when everyone else doubted him. Even though Ren Jingsheng had rejected an arranged marriage for his family's sake and told him, "Let's give us a try." Even though they had already fully marked each other.

After the car accident, Nan Feng kept the scar at the corner of his eye. At last, his eyes no longer looked like Nan Xing's.

"Ren Jingsheng, I'm setting you free."

02

It took Ren Jingsheng far too long to understand what the panic he felt that day, when he couldn't find Nan Feng, meant.

He had fallen in love with Nan Feng long ago.

But Nan Feng didn't want him anymore.

The omega who once had eyes only for him washed away his mark, terminated their child, and turned around to marry his older brother.

03

Ren Jingsheng had always been arrogant, but now he disguised himself as an inferior alpha and appeared before Nan Feng again. He awkwardly edged closer, carefully tried to please him, and did things he would never have considered before. Like a despicable yet devout thief, he stole a little warmth that no longer belonged to him.

"Please, please love me."

On the rainy night his disguise was completely exposed, the usually proud Alpha knelt before Nan Feng, his pheromones surging out of control, his voice hoarse as a trapped beast's.

Nan Feng looked down at him, his tone calm and cruel. "Ren Jingsheng, are you trying to be the other man?"

New novel now updating: Transmigrated and Married My Archrival on the Day I Arrived

A secretly lovesick, stubbornly in-denial gong x a sharp-tongued but emotionally oblivious shou

01

Everyone knew Xiao Pinghai and Lu Zhouyang were famous rivals.

They had butted heads throughout college, and after graduation, they avoided each other at all costs. When they were in the same room, even the air seemed to freeze.

Then one day, Lu Zhouyang got into a car accident.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he wasn't dead, though things weren't much better.

He had transmigrated into Lin You'an, Xiao Pinghai's newlywed spouse.

At the wedding, the officiant asked with a broad smile, "Do you agree to become partners with Mr. Xiao Pinghai?"

Lu Zhouyang looked at Xiao Pinghai's infuriating, deadpan face and threw a punch.

Onlookers: An arranged marriage between wealthy families, and domestic violence from the start?

Lu Zhouyang: Thanks for asking. I'm at a wedding, just transmigrated, and want a divorce.

02

Lu Zhouyang thought a sham marriage meant they would leave each other alone.

Instead, Xiao Pinghai held his hand in public, straightened his collar, and casually put an arm around his waist.

Lu Zhouyang couldn't take it anymore. "Are you doing this on purpose?"

Xiao Pinghai didn't bat an eyelid. "We're newlyweds. You don't want anyone to realize something's off, do you?"

Lu Zhouyang sneered. "And you almost kissed me just now because you were worried someone would notice?"

"It would've worked better if you hadn't dodged."

"..."

03

To get their souls back into their proper bodies, the two were forced to work together and find out what had happened to the original Lin You'an.

His horrible adoptive parents pretended to be loving, his stepbrother pretended to be innocent, and the Lin family made "devouring someone without leaving a trace" look perfectly respectable.

They thought Lu Zhouyang was still the old Lin You'an, someone they could push around.

Then, using Xiao Pinghai's influence, he exposed the truth about his adoption, dug up the secrets of the wealthy families, and turned a scandal buried for years into a social issue that captured the whole internet's attention.

The Lin family demanded furiously, "What exactly are you trying to do?"

"Get the justice I deserve."

Xiao Pinghai stood behind him, backing him up. "You dare lay a hand on my person?"

04

Lin You'an had gotten his revenge, but Lu Zhouyang still couldn't return to his own body.

At last, he realized that perhaps the only way to set everything right was to recreate the car accident.

The moment the car started, Xiao Pinghai suddenly appeared in front of it.

For the first time, the normally composed man looked completely panicked. "Lu Zhouyang, you can't do this to me."

"I've always..."

Before Lu Zhouyang could make out the rest, everything suddenly went black. When he woke again, he was back in his own body.

Beside the hospital bed, Xiao Pinghai stared fixedly at him, his eyes terribly red. He looked so disheveled, he was hardly recognizable.

Pre-release: The Internet Says the Retired Movie Star Is My Daddy?

A calculating, commanding, and irresistibly charming retired movie star gong, Si Heng x a beautiful, obedient yet stubborn shou with low self-esteem and remarkable resilience, Wen Xi

01

The night before a survival show premiered, the production team suddenly announced that a new trainee, Wen Xi, would be joining the cast. The newcomer was impossibly good-looking and had a spotless background. Fans dug around all night and still found nothing suspicious.

No way. Absolutely no way!

That little minx had to have a rich Daddy backing him!

Just as the attacks were at their fiercest, the legendary Daddy showed up in person.

Si Heng, a retired three-time Golden Horse Award-winning Best Actor with more money and fame than he could spend in eight lifetimes, announced that he would be a guest judge.

"Is there any contestant you're especially interested in this time?"

Si Heng smiled at the camera. "Wen Xi?"

02

Wen Xi, who was rumored to be Si Heng's kept lover, was even more confused than the online crowd.

The only connection he had with Si Heng was that he had once been a singer at Si Heng's shop. Back then, he often saw Si Heng sitting quietly in a corner, listening to him sing.

The production team wanted to capitalize on Wen Xi's popularity, so they turned around and paired him with the show's favored contestant for fan service.

He had a worker's sense of responsibility. He practiced dancing until his knees were bruised during the day, reviewed the performances at night, and even carefully studied the fan-service manual the production team had casually handed him. He took notes on everything, from eye contact to physical distance, word by word, afraid that he'd perform poorly and let someone else down.

Late one night, while he was poring over the fan-service manual, a voice suddenly came from the doorway.

"You're still here?"

Wen Xi turned around and saw Si Heng leaning against the doorframe.

For some reason, he felt guilty. "The production team assigned it as homework. I should do it properly."

Si Heng walked over and stopped beside him. Wen Xi froze for a moment, then instinctively took a step back. "Senior Si, I've already dragged your reputation down with mine. Everyone says..."

"Says what?"

"That you're my sugar daddy."

"Don't worry." Si Heng took the manual from Wen Xi's hands and smiled. "You don't need to learn this. I'm confiscating it."

03

Later, to protect their favored contestant, the production team maliciously edited Wen Xi's scenes and put him in the elimination group.

Everyone thought the show was about to sacrifice him, until Si Heng spoke up.

"He isn't some industry plant someone slipped into the show. But if you insist on seeing it that way..."

Si Heng looked at the production team, his voice cold. "Then I'm the one who gave him his opportunity."

A few minutes later, the real voting results came out. Wen Xi was in first place by a landslide.

That night, #TheSuaveCPIsReal# shot to number one on the trending list.

Later, Si Heng announced that he was becoming a director. The lead role in his first film remained uncast for a long time.

Then, on the night Wen Xi's group debuted, Si Heng posted on Weibo:
