What's Wrong with Flirting with You?

My new novel, The Frail Beauty Caught the Eye of a Sinister Emperor, is now underway. Please add it to your reading list! -- Blurb: [Question]: What's it like sharing a dorm room with your sworn enemy? Gu Xunzhi: A chance handed to me on a silver platter? I'd be crazy not to play him for all he's worth. Gu Xunzhi has always been the good kid in everyone's eyes: pretty, sweet, considerate, and top of his class. Everyone likes Gu Xunzhi. Everyone except He Yinxing, his longtime nemesis. He Yinxing is the school's golden boy: tall, handsome, and from a good family. He's captured the hearts of countless boys and girls. But he has one problem: he's homophobic. And Gu Xunzhi happens to be gay. A homophobic straight guy? Gu Xunzhi's lips curled into a wicked smile. Just watch me reel you in. - Gu Xunzhi's hundred-step plan for messing with his nemesis: Step One: Get close on purpose. They ran into each other by the dorm entrance. He Yinxing was as cold as ever, his black hair and dark eyes striking. Sweat dampened his T-shirt, revealing the youthful, firm lines of his muscles. Gu Xunzhi stared into He Yinxing's icy eyes, then suddenly leaned in and murmured suggestively in his ear, "I was saying..." "I'm straight!" He Yinxing had never looked more flustered. Step Two: Tempt him in women's clothes. After military training ended, Gu Xunzhi went to a friend's birthday party. Dressed in a black punk-girl outfit, with fair skin, a pretty face, a slender waist, and long legs, Gu Xunzhi strode in on high heels. Everyone there drew in a sharp breath. From within the crowd, Gu Xunzhi felt someone's gaze: burning, discreet, restrained, following him like a shadow. Gu Xunzhi lifted his eyes and flashed a bright smile at He Yinxing, who was watching him from a corner. Step Three: Make him jealous. Nobody knew that He Yinxing, the aloof campus heartthrob who coldly rejected every confession, was going crazy in the chat window of Gu Xunzhi's secret account every day. "Baby, I love you so much. I'm going crazy missing you. I want to see you so badly. Won't you give me a chance to love you?" Gu Xunzhi's lips curled up as he pulled up his pajama pants and snapped a photo. He'd just finished a mountain biking race, and the insides of his thighs were rubbed raw and red, the vivid crimson stark against his snow-white skin. Almost at once, heavy breathing came from the bed across from him. Gu Xunzhi immediately unsent the photo. "Sorry, wrong person." He Yinxing pressed him: "Who were you trying to send it to?" Gu Xunzhi replied with a beaming smile: "The person I like, Gu Xunzhi." Thud! Gu Xunzhi looked up to see a handsome face gone livid. Step Four: Start a rumor. Step Five: Tempt him with a video. Step One Hundred: Reveal the truth. A one-man show would be too dull. The real climax of this game would be to reveal the truth to He Yinxing with his own hands. Gu Xunzhi smiled, eyes curved. - Well, the plan hit a slight snag. "So, what happened was... Mm!" "Gu Xunzhi, you little liar." Gu Xunzhi was pinned against the cold wall of the dorm bathroom. A strong arm cinched around him from behind, squeezing his waist so hard it nearly snapped. A high, straight nose brushed little by little against the back of Gu Xunzhi's neck, its warmth spreading over his skin. He Yinxing's low, dangerous voice poured into his ear. "Keep your voice down. You don't want your roommates to hear, do you...?" ◎ Nemesis romance | Roommate romance | Online romance in women's clothes | Fake rivals become lovers ◎ A wicked, flirtatious beauty as the bottom x A seemingly aloof top with a possessive streak a mile wide, whose mind is full of nothing but his wife [Reader's Guide] ★ The top doesn't fall for the bottom because he mistakenly thinks he's a girl.

Blurb: Jiang Zhuyun transmigrates into a short-lived NPC in a male-oriented novel about a fight for the throne. He's destined to die before turning twenty. Luckily, all he has to do is complete his System missions to escape his early death! Jiang Zhuyun works hard for years, helping the male lead ascend the throne. By completing his mission through a roundabout route, he finally avoids dying young. Now it's time to head to Jiangnan and enjoy the good life! ୧꒰•̀ᴗ•́꒱୨ The day before the emperor's coronation, Jiang Zhuyun runs off to Jiangnan. One day, he overhears some aunties gossiping at the mouth of an alley: "The young master of the Jiang family is so devoted to His Majesty. I heard he took a blade for the emperor during the coup and was gravely wounded. He's still unconscious." "I heard His Majesty even built a temple to pray for the young master's recovery!" Jiang Zhuyun is struck like a bolt of lightning. What nonsense? When did he take a blade for the emperor? When was he ever devoted to him?! That's slander! Pure slander! I'm taking this to court! After that, Jiang Zhuyun hears new gossip every few days. "I heard the young master Jiang has woken up and declared he won't marry anyone but His Majesty." Jiang Zhuyun's face turns bright red. Which bastard made up that rumor? He and the emperor have a perfectly innocent brotherly bond! "I heard His Majesty agreed to marry the young master Jiang." Jiang Zhuyun is flustered and embarrassed. The storytellers have already started spinning a romance between the emperor and empress. Are the two of them going to become a gay couple in the eyes of the whole world? "I heard the wedding is set for the ninth of next month." Jiang Zhuyun can't sit still. If this keeps going, he and the emperor will probably have kids too! Jiang Zhuyun races back to the palace. Right in front of the emperor, he slaps the imperial desk and declares furiously, "Helan Sui, issue an order at once forbidding people from spreading rumors about us!" The emperor chuckles and clamps a large hand around Jiang Zhuyun's wrist. Before Jiang Zhuyun can react, he's already in the emperor's arms. As Jiang Zhuyun stares at him in shock and panic, the emperor buries his face in Jiang Zhuyun's neck and murmurs, "My empress has finally come back." Jiang Zhuyun: !! It's a trap! - Helan Sui has borne the name of bringer of calamity since childhood. The old emperor despised him, the other princes bullied him, and even the palace servants took turns kicking him when he was down. No one ever cared about Helan Sui, until Jiang Zhuyun appeared. When he was bullied, Jiang Zhuyun stood up for him. When he was punished, Jiang Zhuyun took his punishment for him. When he fell ill, Jiang Zhuyun cared for him meticulously. Jiang Zhuyun was even younger than him, yet he kept him firmly beneath his wing. Then he'd add, "The Third Prince sent me to look after you. He cares about you very much. Please don't hold it against him, okay?" Fool, you can't even lie properly. Helan Sui watched Jiang Zhuyun's rosy lips move and quietly replied, "All right." After years of plotting, Helan Sui seized the throne. One by one, the people who had once humiliated him were cut down. As his long blade swung toward the Third Prince, Jiang Zhuyun suddenly rushed out and stood in its path, gazing at him pitifully. "You can't kill him! If he dies, I won't survive either." ...Jiang Zhuyun loves the Third Prince? Helan Sui looked at Jiang Zhuyun pleading on behalf of another man, the bloodthirsty, violent aura around him growing stronger and stronger. A thought arose in his heart: Fuck him until he dies. But before Helan Sui could put his plan into action, Jiang Zhuyun ran away. Helan Sui laughed in fury. "Good. Very good!" You took a blade for the Third Prince and were devoted to him? Then I will make sure the whole world knows: You love me. [Bonus Scene] On the dragon bed, the emperor kissed the little empress's pink-tipped ear and asked softly, "Do you still like the Third Prince?" Jiang Zhuyun rubbed his aching waist and tried to wriggle away. "I told you, my System mission is to keep him alive. I was only trying to survive..." Before he could finish, he was dragged back beneath the bright yellow silk quilt. Jiang Zhuyun: Waaah, Helan Sui, you're a bastard! Stop bullying me!
