Dear One, In My Heart

"My new novel, Jade Infant, is now open for reading. The blurb is at the very bottom. I hope you'll keep supporting me!"

-The sexy prince's doting romance is here-

A clueless girl in men's clothes × a straight-laced heir driven wild

A sexy, sweet romance: an ancient-style story about "physical attraction"

Heroine Xu Wanyin:

She comes to the capital in her brother's place, posing as the "beautiful and tender" Young Master Xu. Through a twist of fate, she becomes the young heir Yuwen Zhi's junior companion.

When they first meet, she drives off a swooping eagle with a sleeve dart and beams with pride, her little face blooming like a brilliant summer flower. He can't take his eyes off her.

But she knows he's a famous flirt. Embarrassed by his gaze, she fires a sleeve dart and wounds him.

He sucks in a pained breath and asks quietly, "Was there poison on the arrow?"

That day, she clearly saw him face-to-face with a naked beauty, yet he tore himself away from that sumptuous den of pleasure and chased after her all the way.

He pins her forcefully among the bamboo and kisses her.

As he kisses her, he asks, "Young Master Xu, are you... all right?"

She cries out, "I'm not all right! How can you kiss another man?"

He grits his teeth. "So what if you're a man? What of it if I want you?"

Hero Yuwen Zhi:

Handsome and dashing, he is a brilliant military and civil talent in the emperor's eyes, secretly appointed by imperial decree as the "Blood Crow General." Steady by nature, he is ruthless in carrying out his duties.

Since he began riding into battle at fifteen or sixteen, he has always believed that life's greatest pleasure was "riding three thousand miles through war, one sword standing against a million foes."

Until that night, when Young Master Xu's servant came pleading for help. "Young Heir, the young master is in trouble!"

He rode hard to Yunxiang Tower, a luxurious establishment reserved for noble scions and dignitaries.

When at last he found Young Master Xu deep within Yunxiang Tower, the young man had a dazed look in his eyes and said nothing. Bound to the bed, he was like a forbidden treasure beneath the moon, breathtakingly beautiful...

Yuwen Zhi's breathing grew ragged and his mind went blank, yet threads of fear and embarrassment seeped through him, because he could no longer suppress the bulge beneath his robes!

It's not that he didn't try to resist.

He doted on her even as he was plagued by one erotic dream after another, holding back until he was driven mad.

He held back again and again, until he could hold back no more!

She can bounce around all she likes. He can't control himself anymore. He'll just shut his eyes and go for it!

A little scene:

At that very moment, the world went dark before her eyes: he had covered them with his hand. As she was still wondering what was happening, she heard him whisper by her ear, "I... don't know why, but all I can think about is... you, Young Master Xu..."

Xu Wanyin's mind went "buzz." His words made her dizzy. She knew there was every reason to object, and that she should pull his hand away and flee this place as quickly as possible. Yet she was dazed and unable to move. She didn't know whether the fragrant bamboo sap had numbed her senses, or whether his low, husky words had bewitched her...

As she struggled within herself, uncertain what to do, she felt the hand covering her mouth move away. She hurriedly licked her lips and stammered,

"Young master, you..."

But she couldn't get another word out.

Her lips, poised to speak, were already caught in the mouth of the young heir, who was utterly intoxicated by the moment and finally felt a weight lift from his shoulders.

Reading Guide:

1. Both leads are each other's first and only partner.

2. This is not a strong-female-lead story or a power fantasy. The heroine starts out young, naive, and delicate, but has a growth arc.

3. The hero is devoted to her.

4. The heroine is pursued by several male supporting characters, with some one-sided romantic threads. None of them stoop to the level of Yin Zhiping.

This is a fictional historical setting. Please don't nitpick the history.

Blurb for Jade Infant:

Li Yuying died an unjust death.

In her previous life, she had breathtaking beauty but lived timidly and foolishly. She held the truest love in the world in her hands, yet personally pushed the man who cherished her above all else toward the executioner's blade.

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the age of thirteen.

A carefree, utterly beauty-obsessed modern soul had somehow crashed into her own.

With two souls as one, Li Yuying, who had once died in misery, was finally awakened. In this life, she would hold on to her good fortune, love wholeheartedly, and live well.

But the one-of-a-kind treasure of a man she'd lost, the Duke of Dingguo's young lord Li Changsheng, was her own older brother! What was she supposed to do?

Li Yuying: ... Help! Forbidden sibling romance? I really can't handle this!

Worse still, as a devoted admirer of handsome faces, she also had a beloved from her previous life: the great general Zhuo Da.

That powerful and handsome older man was devoted and gentle, but in his previous life, the one he had been fixated on was Li Yuying's mother, whose beauty dazzled the entire army.

Li Yuying sighed in dismay. How could such a peerlessly handsome man be trapped in hopeless love? In this life, she had to save the lovesick older man and give him a bold, open romance!

But just as she began to make plans, her gentle, refined older brother completely lost his mind.

The young, ennobled Li Changsheng, whose power towered over all, shed every trace of gentleness. With bloodshot eyes, he held her captive in his arms and spoke in a hoarse, obsessive voice:

"Yuying, if you insist on this, I'll make sure he doesn't even have bones left to bury."

Li Yuying wanted to cry. "Brother! We're real siblings! Heaven will strike us dead for this!"

Li Changsheng lowered his head and kissed away the panic at the corner of her eye. His voice was fierce yet tender:

"How do you know the whole world hasn't been lying to you?"

[Two souls in one, unhinged pseudo-incest] [Redemption from a past life + a love-rival showdown and a chase for the wife]

The heroine awakens, builds a career, and flirts with handsome men, only to be doted on by her obsessive older brother:

Don't be afraid, little sister. I'm not your real brother. I'm the husband fate has chosen for you.

Theme: No amount of court intrigue can stop true love, whose value is beyond measure.
