Ji Zhen Tang first saw Zhong Yu Bai at her boyfriend’s birthday banquet.... more>>

Amidst the clinking of glasses, the man sat calmly in the midst of swirling smoke, unruffled, quietly listening to the conversations around the table.

Her boyfriend leaned in to whisper to her, giving her a heads-up: “That’s my third uncle, don’t provoke him, I can’t handle it.”

On the same day of the birthday banquet, her boyfriend got drunk and embarrassed her in front of everyone.

Leaving the Zhong family mansion, she walked in the rain. Before long, an umbrella was held over her head, and Ji Zhen Tang looked back.

The person following her turned out to be the same uncle from earlier. The man smiled gently, with a comforting tone, “Let me walk with you a bit.”

–

Meeting her ex-boyfriend again at a friend’s gathering, they were now former lovers.

Ji Zhen Tang overheard her ex-boyfriend’s tone full of envy as he talked about his uncle, mentioning how Zhong Yu Bai bought a tea plantation in the prime land of the mountains and rivers for his little girlfriend.

People started gossiping, “Which woman is so lucky?”

Before anyone could finish their words, someone stepped in from outside. The man exuded an imposing aura, silencing the whole room.

Without paying attention to anyone else, Zhong Yu Bai walked straight to Ji Zhen Tang and gently embraced her.

“The feng shui of the mountains and rivers is suitable for begonias. Since she likes it, everything is negotiable.”

–

Ji Zhen Tang had heard about Zhong Yu Bai from others, portraying him as a high-status, gentle and wealthy man. Mr. Zhong was perfect in every aspect, except for being too ruthless and not understanding the meaning of compassion.

But she had clearly seen it. When she was sick, he patiently brewed medicine for her by the stove, gently massaging her numb and painful hand until late into the night.

He spoke words of comfort in the softest and gentlest manner, afraid of troubling her.

“Does it still hurt?”

Zhong Yu Bai listened with a smile, his eyes full of affection as he gazed at his sparrow—

“She is a bird, and I am not her cage.”

“I am her sanctuary.” <<less

When they first met, Qin Yiyu saw Nan Yi holding a liquor bottle from the doorway, and thought he was there to collect debts.... more>>

But he actually said: “I’m forming a band, to participate in a competition. We’re missing a lead vocalist who can play guitar.”

Qin Yiyu: Oh, it would be better if he came to collect debts.

He agreed in the end, because he didn’t want to give up such a talented bassist.

— Later —

Nan Yi: Qin Yiyu is my target.

Qin Yiyu: (bulb lighting up) likes me.

Nan Yi: We can be friends.

Qin Yiyu: Understood, lip service friendship1. I don’t mind kissing you even though I’m a straight man.

Nan Yi: (inhale)

Qin Yiyu: He really loves me.

—-—

During the competition, no one had high hopes for this new band. Even the staff was talking about it backstage.

“The bassist sure is handsome, but you can’t rely on looks to eat. The drummer is said to have a temper so bad that he’s almost beaten people up. The keyboardist seems to be a bank employee who was fired. Coupled with a popular lead vocalist with a terrible personality who had been kicked out of his previous band, how can this kind of makeshift band win?”

Yet the four of them were right behind them.

Yan Ji: “Get it right, I wasn’t fired but resigned voluntarily, and it was an investment bank, not a bank.”

Chi Zhiyang: “What crap are you spewing! How is my temper bad!”

Qin Yiyu: “In such a long sentence, only the first four words are worth hearing. A person as perfect as myself, the only people who can insult me are either my close friends, or the reincarnation of the violin— a worthless thing.”

Staff: (embarrassed) (cold sweat) (speechless)

Nan Yi said coldly: “Excuse me, the grassroot band is about to go on stage.”

“What flower is this?”

“That’s a marigold. It’s also commonly known as a marigold. There are several varieties, but what you’re looking at is a calendula.”

Even though he seemed unfamiliar with flowers at a glance, he showed interest in the flower language of calendula marigold, which had a negative meaning.

“It’s supposed to hurt someone, not excitement.”

The man who bought the marigold bouquet touched upon a painful memory that he had momentarily set aside. Jhi Yeonwoo thought it was just a passing encounter, but the man appeared in front of him again after a few hours.

“By any chance, does this store offer any benefits for VIPs?”

Introducing himself as Choi Muhyuk, the man asked, “Can things like having a meal or a drink be possible?”

His mundane daily life was unexpectedly disrupted when he met Jhi Yeonwoo on the street, dragged along like a reluctant journey by a flower that caught his eye.

“Cliff.”

I hesitated for a moment, then firmly pressed my lips together. I tensed my body pretending indifference. After shielding myself with calmness, I opened my mouth provocatively.

“What exactly are you to me?”

Without all the singularities or whatever. I didn’t add any unnecessary reasons or information. Interpretation was Cliff’s job. Surprisingly, Cliff answered without hesitation. There was no pause or hesitation.

Now the interpretation was my job. However, while my intentions were often read by Cliff, Cliff had never been read by me. When I regained my senses, it was always in Cliff’s palm.

“You’re too difficult, Cliff.”

I let out a bitter laugh. This and that seemed to be quite different stories.

A hand cupped her cheek, then passed over her chin and grabbed her neck. She coughed raggedly as her breathing was squeezed out.

My husband, who once loved the saint, is acting strange. Why now?

I am not Ariadeline who was drowning in love.

"What on earth are you thinking?”

"I'm thinking of making you love me again."

Unlike my confused self, Carlothian smiled.

"You already loved me once."

Since you already loved me once, won't loving me twice be easier?

Because that s*ave is actually the male lead of this novel and the long lost son of a duke.

So, if you don’t want to be executed for abusing the male lead, just hand him over to me quietly.

I used him to escape from this miserable household and to fulfill the dreams I couldn’t achieve in my previous life.

“Thank you, Duke.”

When I exchanged the male lead for the reward, his face seemed stained with betrayal, but…

It doesn’t matter.

I made sure to keep a strict line between us so that the male lead wouldn’t catch the rampant male lead affliction: obsession.

So now I plan to run away from him!

Five years later.

I finally managed to open a ‘convenience store’ in this romance fantasy world, and it’s a huge success!

One day, a suspicious customer visited me.

“Welcome!”

Even I, who had the knight commander, the mercenary king, and a priest—who were all famous in the whole empire by the way—as regular customers in the capital, had to catch my breath at the beauty of this customer.

“Are you looking for something?”

“Right here.”

“Pardon?”

“She’s right in front of me.”

His gaze was fixed directly on me.

“I’m sorry, dear customer, but I’m not for sale….”

“Master.”

As I hurriedly bowed my head, I was startled by the familiar yet unfamiliar address from the customer’s mouth.

“You bought me, didn’t you? You must take responsibility to the very end. Like that time, when we shared a single blanket… and spent many nights together. Remember?”

…Wasn’t I supposed to be safe from the male lead’s obsession?
