The Consequences of Provoking a Mad Young Lady

1. Lin Xi takes a part-time job and is hired by the Shen family, where she meets Shen Song'an. Shen Song'an is the cherished eldest daughter of the Shen family, the very embodiment of perfection: an aloof beauty, an excellent student, and the goddess in everyone's eyes. Among her many admirers, Lin Xi is the most unremarkable. No one knows that she likes Shen Song'an. Except Shen Song'an herself. When the handwritten love letter is discovered, its elegant script is a pleasure to look at. Shen Song'an reads it from beginning to end, her face unsmiling. “You like me?” Lin Xi lowers her head, her voice soft. “I want to stay by your side.” A cold gaze sweeps over the girl's slender cheek, as if weighing how sincere she is. - Lin Xi gets her wish and stays by Shen Song'an's side, serving her faithfully and obeying her every command. Everyone says she's the most devoted lackey at Miss Shen's beck and call. But just a few months later, they're holding hands, embracing, and kissing in secret, wrapped up in tender intimacy. When passion overtakes her, Shen Song'an holds Lin Xi tight and asks hoarsely, “Will you leave me?” Her neck arches in a beautiful line, and Shen Song'an's sweat-damp face looks almost unreal in the dim light. Lin Xi thinks of the transfer notification that just arrived. She lowers her head to kiss the corner of Shen Song'an's lips, her tone devout. “I won't.” 2. The day Lin Xi is exposed is far more dignified than she'd imagined. The only thing lacking is the rain, just like the day she first arrived. “Shen Song'an, I hope your future is bright and all your wishes come true.” Lin Xi accepts the water her lover offers, her voice calm and her good wishes sincere. Shen Song'an glances at her and smiles, then turns to gaze at the strings of raindrops falling beyond the eaves. Plip. A raindrop falls. A dull thud sounds beside her. Lin Xi loses consciousness and collapses onto the carpet. Her hair falls against Shen Song'an's ankle, tangled like it was when they used to entwine together. Shen Song'an thinks, dazedly: This woman never once said she loved me. 3. When Lin Xi wakes again, the room is dim. Shen Song'an stands before her, expression indifferent, watching her futile struggle with unhurried composure. Suddenly, she exerts her strength, and Lin Xi is caught off guard as she crashes into her arms. The instant the fragrance of Lin Xi's hair fills her nose, Shen Song'an grips her cheek hard and forces her to look up. Half of Shen Song'an's face is swallowed by the gloom. Her gaze is crazed and terrifying. “Lin Xi... how dare you?” How dare you deceive me? How dare you leave me? How dare you look at me with those pitiful eyes even now? How dare you not love me? #What Happens When You Tease a Crazy Young Lady #Obviously, She'll Do This and That to You “She is a thief, a pickpocket, a liar.

Blurb: The fake heiress, Shao Shuning, is vain and selfish. After failing to seduce the real heiress, Shao Jianning, she is thrown out of the wealthy family. Years later, they meet again. Shao Shuning is down on her luck, wearing revealing clothes and cheap perfume. She grovels to the lowlifes she once looked down on, scraping together whatever money falls through their fingers just to survive. Shao Jianning watches coldly, then lets out a dismissive “Hmph.” She still remembers how her so-called “little sister” went crazy and climbed into her bed, then called her a “fake prude” and “frigid” after being rejected. Shao Jianning has no intention of helping her. And yet... One rainy night, not long afterward, Shao Jianning takes the watch from her wrist and tosses it over. Looking at the drenched woman, she says coolly, “Is this enough for one night?” The woman is bewildered at first. She checks the watch, then breaks into a delighted, calculating smile. She loops her arms around Shao Jianning's neck and sits on her lap. Her cheap perfume makes Shao Jianning frown. “I'm your sister,” Shao Shuning says with a sweet smile and breath like orchids. “That'll cost extra.” Reader advisory: They switch roles. The real heiress is older. Theme: Love you, love the world.
