http://read.xxsy.net/info/372205.html The Ancient Poem of the Mirror
She was a senior agent in a modern international security agency. When things were calm, she was laid-back and carefree, with an easygoing charm. She seemed utterly harmless. But when circumstances changed, she struck without mercy, with deadly precision, every move a fatal one.
She was a maid in an alternate era, brought back to a prince’s mansion to bear a child. When she first arrived, she was anxious and timid, afraid of trouble and always watching everyone’s expressions before she acted. To avoid causing problems, she had gotten into the habit of staying behind closed doors.
Then she became her!
He was a prince who could command the winds and rain with a single word. Refined and gentle as jade, his nature was as calm as a thin cloud. He loved to sleep and was indifferent to everything, preferring to keep everyone at arm’s length. He could not even remember the faces of the women who served at his side.
When a tipsy young maid climbed over the wall and stole away all his composure, melting the frost in his heart and bringing warmth to it, how could he let go of the one thing in his life that had ever interested him?
She was his concubine, though neither of them knew it. She called him her brother, and he held her in the palm of his hand, shielding her close to his heart.
His principal wife was next door, and all the splendor and riches were there, too. Yet where would his gaze finally fall, across the sea of people?
Song Chu said, “Bai Mo, I don’t care for the empire or the powerful. I’ve never remembered the features of a woman I’d only just met, but you are etched in my heart.”
Song Chu said, “Bai Mo, you’re the only woman who has ever captured my heart and soul. There will never be anyone else!”
Song Chu said, “Bai Mo, when you stood atop that wall, your bright eyes lighting up the whole sky, I decided right then that I would take you to the ends of the earth and keep the world from tainting the beauty I want all to myself.”
Gong Jiuye said, “Bai Mo, you stole more than just a purse from me. You took my heart, but never said you wanted it. What am I supposed to do with it for the rest of my life?!”
Mo Lingfeng said, “Bai Mo, you should have been my wife. But somehow, a great distance now lies between us. I’ll let you approach me with ulterior motives. Even if you betray me, I’ll forgive you again and again in this life. In the end, I even traded my own life for yours. After all these years, it was as if I had only just seen a world of splendor in your bright eyes. I was willing to let three feet of yellow earth bury me.”
Jun Yumo said, “Bai Mo, do you want me? Do you want my promise? Do you want my heart? Why is it that no matter how much time passes, you remain frozen in my mind, unchanged in that one moment?”
Chen Ziqing said, “Bai Mo, I fought for the throne for so many years.
“If I could return to that moment, I would offer you the whole empire as a betrothal gift and marry you, freeing you from the palace so we could live as an ordinary couple. But I met you too late.”
Bai Mo thought, I didn’t want the palace, but it has already stirred up trouble. I didn’t want the martial world, but it has already run rampant, too. If happiness is quicksand, I’ll follow your path to the end. If tenderness is a dream, I hope never to wake.
(The leads won’t be put through angst. The hero spoils the heroine so much that she can’t see the end of it.)
New novel: Reborn: A Hard-Fought Match http://read.xxsy.net/info/364106.html
This is the story of two CEOs matching wits and courage, willing to fall into a cycle of rebirth just to make you smile. The female CEO is unconventional and clever, with the power to make a stunning entrance. The male CEO is wickedly charming and headstrong, a master strategist who always thinks several moves ahead.
The objective truth:
Who is Xia Jingchen? Just a few years ago, she was a spoiled heiress, beautiful on the outside but rotten within. A few years later, she had become a bold, formidable queen of the financial world.
Rumor has it that she caused her husband’s death, miscarried her lover’s child, and eloped abroad with her lover on the day of her husband’s funeral. She also cut off every means of survival for her husband’s younger sister, who was also his lover, leaving her with nowhere to turn.
She met every accusation with calm silence.
When Xia Jingchen returned to the country, another storm swept through the business world. Gu Shaoqing, a devastatingly handsome man who could make both gods and men jealous, strode proudly into the complex financial world of City A. His very first move was to do her an enormous favor.
She humbly went to thank this mysterious, perfect man. But she discovered that the mistress from her husband’s company all those years ago was now flourishing under his protection.
There’s always someone one step ahead. Years ago, I didn’t take you seriously. How could you possibly turn the tables on me now? I’ll take another gamble, and this time I’ll make sure she’s left with nothing to her name
