After Breaking Up with the Unhinged Heiress

While working as a coffee shop server to find inspiration for her comics, He Linwan unexpectedly meets Gu Qingxiao.

The corners of Gu Qingxiao's eyes tilt upward, and her dark pupils always carry the faintest hint of a smile when she looks at someone.

Even just sitting alone in a chair holding a cup of coffee, she gives He Linwan an endless supply of inspiration.

There is so much inspiration with nowhere to go that, before long, every page of her sketchbook is filled with the same person. The faintly visible lines of her shoulders and back are utterly captivating.

One day, her sketchbook goes missing.

Later, she sees it in Gu Qingxiao's hands.

He Linwan: "!!!"

The two are brought together by this, gradually come to know and love each other, and Gu Qingxiao insinuates herself into He Linwan's life step by step, until He Linwan is the first to confess.

On the eve of the proposal, He Linwan discovers Gu Qingxiao's true nature.

She's a compulsive liar, and not a single word out of her mouth is true.

Gu Qingxiao had wanted to make He Linwan hers for a long time. Watching her prey fall into her hands one step at a time gave her immense pleasure.

But she never expected that her catch would actually want to leave. Then their connection was severed, and He Linwan disappeared from her life for good.

P.S.:

1. The story is entirely fictional, with no real-life inspirations.

2. The early chapters are quite sweet. The angst and regret come later.

3. Gu is naturally incapable of feeling emotions, and her personality is rather twisted.

New novel now underway: Divorcing the Cold Beauty

Qin Qian has been in love with Xin Lu for years. When she unexpectedly learns that their families are arranging a marriage, she eagerly agrees.

Even though the marriage is ultimately intended to benefit their companies.

After the wedding, she remembers everything about Xin Lu and does her best to surprise her and make their marriage special.

She buys her favorite flowers, dresses according to her tastes, and eats desserts with her that she herself never used to touch.

Qin Qian changes herself into the kind of person Xin Lu likes, hoping that one day Xin Lu will fall for her.

She doesn't want anyone to know about their relationship, so Qin Qian never tells people who her wife is.

Xin Lu wants them to fulfill their wifely duties once a week. Even when Qin Qian is too tired to want to, she still tries her best to oblige.

In public, they act as though they don't know each other. No one knows the truth about their relationship.

In private, Xin Lu's warm smile vanishes, and she treats Qin Qian with utter coldness.

Only when Xin Lu's beloved first love appears does Qin Qian understand that wishful thinking is just wishful thinking. Something you hate won't suddenly become something you love.

There will always be someone who gets special treatment.

When they divorce, Qin Qian still makes sure Xin Lu can leave with her dignity intact.

But she never expects to lose her memory.

Xin Lu, who has always obeyed her elders, marries into the Qin family. She doesn't like Qin Qian, and she especially hates how Qin Qian is always making excuses to get close to her.

After the divorce, Qin Qian vanishes completely from her life, yet little by little, she creeps into Xin Lu's thoughts. Xin Lu finds herself thinking of her all the time.

One day, after a meeting, Xin Lu gets a call from an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, are you a family member? Qin Qian has been in a car accident."

When Xin Lu rushes over, she finds Qin Qian unconscious. After several days of care, Qin Qian wakes with clear, questioning eyes.

"Who are you?"

Xin Lu lies: "I'm your wife."

The lie grows bigger and bigger, until one day Qin Qian regains her memory.

"President Xin, we're divorced. You took advantage of my amnesia to deceive me for months. That should have satisfied your little obsession. From now on, we shouldn't see each other again."

Xin Lu grabs her sleeve tightly, her eyes red.

"...I regret it."
