My Nemesis Is My Wife

Coming soon: The Love Chase and Regret in an Escape Game. Blurb at the bottom!

Blurb for My Nemesis Is My Wife:

[Love and hate each other, unhinged hedonist gong x aloof, ruthless shou]

[Crazy inside and out x cold outside, crazy inside, mad dog x nervous wreck]

"Welcome to Babel Tower."

"The victor advances. The loser is eliminated."

"Kill your opponent, or be killed."

"Whoever reaches the top of the tower will possess everything."

Xiang Fuxue wakes up one day with no memory of who he is.

The good news is that he has two notes in his pocket.

The bad news is that one says, "Trust Meng Chenzhu," while the other says, "Kill Meng Chenzhu."

When they first meet, Xiang Fuxue presses the dark mouth of a gun to the man's forehead.

Meng Chenzhu smiles, his hands sliding up Xiang Fuxue's gun-holding fingers like slick snakes. "Darling, your hands are so cold. Do you need my coat?"

Xiang Fuxue replies coldly, "You've already made me angry enough."

After a fight, Xiang Fuxue looks down at the man at the doorway, drenched in blood yet grinning wildly.

The man smiles brightly. "Sorry to trouble you, but can I stay the night?"

Xiang Fuxue turns away. Meng Chenzhu gets up cheerfully, only to be kicked to the ground before he can step inside.

Xiang Fuxue casually ties up his long hair and fixes him with a cool, sharp gaze. "Get in on your knees."

"Have you heard of the suspension bridge effect?"

In a sealed space full of danger, Meng Chenzhu's eyes curve as his blatantly malicious gaze slowly travels over Xiang Fuxue's body.

Xiang Fuxue takes a step back. Meng Chenzhu steps forward.

Until the gleaming tip of a knife presses against Xiang Fuxue's smooth neck, a hair's breadth from piercing his delicate skin.

Meng Chenzhu raises his hands in surrender, looking helpless. "I said that wrong."

The gun spins around his fingertip before coming to rest beneath his chin. "My feelings for you aren't just a passing thrill."

Everyone knows that Xiang Fuxue and Meng Chenzhu are destined to fight to the death.

But the man sits alone behind another man's gravestone, murmuring to himself:

"Weren't you the strongest person here?"

"Then why is your only remaining possession..."

"Me?"

Note:

1. Survival-based, unlimited-leveling game. Same-sex enemies, equally powerful and equally unhinged gong and shou, love and hate each other, and a whole lot of madness and resentment.

2. A max-level veteran slaughters the newbie village, but his teammates trip him up.

3. A nemesis is a nemesis. A nemesis can't become a wife... If he became my wife, I could never look him straight in the eyes and tell him I was going to kill him again... If he became my wife, we'd only be able to huddle together under the covers at night and sink into a bed of desire and love... So a nemesis can only be a wife... No, sorry, I mean... My nemesis is my wife.

The Love Chase and Regret in an Escape Game

When Xiang Heqing first enters the escape game "Death's Gate," he catches the eye of the number one player, the First Throne.

Everyone watches the pale, beautiful newcomer with envy, waiting for him to accept this irresistible invitation.

But...

Xiang Heqing: Thank you for the invitation, but I'm afraid I can't accept.

Everyone else: Is he crazy?

The newcomer is lucky, sure, but he must not be very bright. That's what everyone else thinks.

Until the First Throne himself stands before them and reaches out to the newcomer, his eyes full of sincere pleading.

The newcomer looks up coldly. "Who are you?"

In his second year inside "Death's Gate," Pei Weiyan becomes the human to reach the throne in the shortest time.

He is cold-blooded and cruel, like a biting winter wind, forcing everyone to bow their heads and submit.

Then one day, this man, rumored to be ruthless and indifferent, someone who never pays anyone else the slightest attention, walks expressionlessly toward a newcomer who has just entered "Death's Gate."

Everyone secretly cranes their necks to watch the drama. The first newcomer brave enough to offend the First Throne!

Then they see the boss pull out what can only be called a sycophantic smile the moment the newcomer looks up coolly. "Baby, I was wrong."

Everyone: ?????

Everyone thinks Xiang Heqing is a doddering vine, a canary who survives by relying on the boss.

Then he emerges from a dungeon, covered in blood and stepping over a floor strewn with corpses. Everyone who watched the livestream falls silent.

His schemes are flawless, and he uses his own madness as a game piece. He fears neither life nor death, and can fight gods and demons. He advances step by step, daring even to change the heavens.

Others sit upon the throne, but he stands above it.

Theme: The best way to deal with an enemy is to turn him into your boyfriend.
