Stellen Kingdom, Ayla Serdian who was the daughter of the most reputed Count.

Because of her father’s embezzlement of a national treasure, she lost her noble status overnight and became a maid at the royal palace.

A man approaches her. Theon Ennedi, the grandson of the King of the Stellen Kingdom.

“If you ever eavesdrop again on the royal family, you won’t come out unscathed.”

He, who was cold at first, says something unexpected.

“If you tell me to stop… I won’t push it.”

Soon the distance between them slowly shrunk, enough for their lips to touch. The light mint scent coining from him tickled Ayla’s nose. As Theon’s unusually rough breath caressed her forehead, her whole body tensed up, holding her gasp.

“I wish you would look at me.”

“…”

“If you don’t like it, I will stop.”

Her reason was telling her to refuse him. But under the control of Theon’s voice, asking for her permission as if taming her, the words hardly came out. “I do not… hate it.” <<less

“Hi!” Melvin greeted with a smile.

Then without any preamble, she just heard herself speak. “Will you marry me?”

She almost slapped herself. How could she ask him that thing when they had only been together again for only a few minutes after eleven years of not seeing each other?

After Bai Yin’s mother passed away, her father quickly brought his mistress and illegitimate daughter to the family home, while young Bai Yin was sent to live with her grandmother in the countryside.... more>>

Years later, the family brought Bai Yin back home. Everyone assumed that she, having grown up in the countryside, would be unsophisticated and unable to fit in with high society.

But no one expected the stunning woman who stepped out of the car, wearing a light blue qipao embroidered with exquisite su embroidery peonies, with long hair cascading down her shoulders. Her delicate features were like misty landscapes, and upon closer inspection, her eyes and brows were breathtakingly beautiful.

She even outshone her half-sister, who had already gained some fame in the entertainment industry.

…

Bai Yin was only brought back to the family to replace her half-sister, who had already debuted, in a commercial marriage.

On the day of the wedding, the groom thought he was marrying a country bumpkin and ran away.

As the situation was about to turn into a farce, an old man named Chen, who had watched Bai Yin grow up, couldn’t bear to see her in such a state and called his grandson.

Half an hour later, a bright red sports car, covered in white roses, pulled up in front of the bride.

The man got out of the car, leaned against it, and grinned arrogantly, “Grandpa asked me to save the day. Am I the emcee or the best man?”

The emcee was embarrassed and said, “Right now…we’re just missing the groom.”

“…”

Bai Yin stunned everyone by exchanging wedding rings with Chen Huaixiao, a national heartthrob.

Her half-sister was so jealous that she almost scratched her palms raw.

*

As the prince of the Chen family conglomerate, Chen Huaixiao held immense power and influence.

Under his icy and noble exterior lay a cunning and ruthless mind, which had brought the conglomerate to the top in just a few years.

When he wasn’t wearing a suit, he loved extreme sports, rock climbing, and high-speed racing…

In the face of danger, he could still ride the edge with ease.

He even managed to turn his daredevil lifestyle into s*x appeal, attracting a horde of screaming female fans.

But then he settled down and stopped racing as much.

Until a photo surfaced…

Chen Huaixiao sat in the car, his mouth curved in a smile, absently playing with the qipao button on Bai Yin’s neck.

His eyes were filled with affection.

Bai Yin clung to him tightly, her face pressed against his neck, nervously looking back at the perilous cliff behind her.

In the face of adversity, the sun rose slowly.

The story of the cool and collected qipao girl and the sexy and domineering CEO.

“From now on, you are my cliff and my peak.” <<less

"Good job."

Jung-hoo smiled. The sound of him putting the mug on the table was especially loud. Then he stood up and approached Jaehee while loosening his tie.

"You're... now..."
"I'm not going to let senior sleep tonight."

With her eyes wide open, she looked at Jung-hoo nearing her.

"What are you doing?"
"Don't you usually scream? Aren't you going to scream?"
"Get out of the way, don't mess with me."

When he touched her lips, the lips suddenly opened and Jae-hee was surprised and tried to let go of his hand. However, Jung-hoo grabbed Jae-hee's hand and pressed it against his lower lip.

"I kept thinking about you."

His moving tongue touched Jae-hee's blunt calluses on the tips of her nails slightly. The hand holding her own was a fine hand without any callus. She was suddenly bothered by her calloused hand that was being held.

"What are you thinking about? I'm still speaking."

White teeth bit her itchy finger.

"Ugh..."
"Sleep with me. Sunbae just nod your head. I'll take care of the rest."

As I lowered my head gently, I could feel his black eyes examining my actions one by one. <<less

At first, I was taken aback by the sudden change and tried to keep my distance from Souji-kun, but not long after, I found myself interested to Souji-kun. He is very nice, smart, , serious, handsome, and has a very gentle smile. On top of that, his singing voice is really captivating.

Su Tao had been in love with Xie Jin for four long years.... more>>

Everyone knew that Xie Jin was paranoid and had a strong desire for control, while Su Tao was obedient and would listen to anything Xie Jin said.

As a secretary who only knew how to follow orders, how could she stay by his side and have access to privileges that were beyond the reach of ordinary people?

With the "help" of others, Su Tao finally discovered that Xie Jin's paranoid demands were an attempt to mold her into the image of his former secretary. She was nothing but a substitute.

Without leaving a trace, Su Tao only left a resignation letter and disappeared completely.

No one could have imagined that Xie Jin, who couldn't find Su Tao, was like a devil. No one was able to calm his rage when he went insane.

---

The next time Su Tao saw Xie Jin was at the annual meeting of a rising star company in the industry.

She appeared as a shareholder and stunned the crowd, attracting the attention of countless young talents.

Just as she was about to leave, Xie Jin suddenly grabbed her wrist and his fiercely red eyes were filled with madness: "Be good, don't go."

Su Tao pulled her hand back and looked at him coldly, "I forgot to tell you, I've never been obedient."

Xie Jin held onto Su Tao's clothes and choked out the words, "I'll be good."

4. Male lead is sick but not weak, his illness will get better!

——

In the martial world, she is a famous chivalrous heroine, and he is an elusive broker;

In the palace, she is the unruly youngest daughter of a general, while he is the crown prince walking on thin ice.

1.

Young Miss Jiang Kui of the General’s Estate, childhood name Little Full, pretends to be a delicate beauty during the day, but goes out killing bad guys at night.

Until the day a marriage contract ties her to the weak Crown Prince Xie Wuyan.

On their wedding night, the moment her husband lifts her red bridal veil, she presses a sword against him and chuckles: “Touch me and you die.”

The young husband lies back with closed eyes: “I’m at my wife’s mercy.”

She doesn’t notice his ears turning red amidst his disheveled hair.

2.

Crown Prince Xie Kang, courtesy name Wuyan, is rumored by all to be a sickly prince who won’t live past his coming-of-age ceremony.

Yet few know he is also the untraceable broker in the martial world, and fewer still know the woman who has captured his heart is a famous female heroine.

The day after his wedding, a little eunuch reports to him that the Crown Princess sneaked out of the palace at night to secretly meet someone at the bookstore in the East Tower.

Prince Xie waves his hand unconcernedly with a faint smile.

That night at the East Tower’s bookstore, the famous broker with quite a reputation in the martial world rests his chin on his folded hands as he gently asks the female heroine across the bamboo screen: “What do you think… of Xie Kang as a person?”

3.

Jiang Kui never thought the husband she deemed useless would one day fight through thousands of soldiers and horses to come to her.

He holds her bloodied body in his arms, takes her spear, stands tall amidst the storm of swords, and whispers tenderly in her ear: “My wife, it’s me.”

It’s you, she thinks hazily. It was you I met at Qujiang, you who laughed at me in the bookstore, you who drank with me, you who held me in the snowstorm.

Of the vast world, the one who came for me is you. It has always been you. <<less

To Yuna's surprise, Xiao Chen was the elder brother of the very student whose class she manages. She also realized that this rebellious student causes trouble two or three days out of every week, indirectly giving them many chances to meet.

...

When they reunite again, Yuna is puzzled. Wasn't Xiao Chen a poor young master in the past? How come he's now driving luxury cars and living in mansions?

Xiao Chen is also puzzled. Wasn't Yuna a rich daddy's girl in the past? How come she's now dressing plainly and squeezing onto public transport??

...

In the eyes of her students, Yuna is very beautiful but has always been diligent and thrifty, with little interest in money.

However, one day a Rolls Royce showed up outside school, waiting. Upon seeing Yuna, the chauffeur respectfully opened the door for her, "Miss Yuna, please get in."

From that day forth, her true identity set off huge discussions in school. <<less

After meeting properly for the first time in 12 years, Leon spoke to Eila with a firm voice.

"So the heir I'm talking about is the child between you and me.”

Leon's long, thick fingers ran through her hair. Then he gently touched her face, and his thumb caressed her lips. When her white teeth and red tongue was exposed over her slightly open lips, he looked ecstatic and said.

“I hope you will fulfill the obligation of this marriage that you have been putting off, Eila.”

* * *

"Eila."

Leon's voice was earnest even though the person he was speaking to was in his arms.

Did Eila know? How long he had been waiting for this day.

Leon did not let her go from his arms for a long while. The soft touch of her body against his chest and the pounding of her small heart was absolutely lovely. His hands ran through her hair and shoulders over and over again, as if he couldn't believe she was in his arms. It was a careful touch, as if touching the most precious treasure in the world.

Traces of his desire which he poured out over and over again were flowing from between her legs. He looked at the traces of himself flowing underneath for a moment.

My body only heats up for one person. Only to his wife right in his arms. <<less
