(Marriage before love, hidden identities, revenge, hilarious, cute babies) Mu Rongting, a rising star in the business world, was focused on his career and vowed not to marry. However, his grandfather had arranged a childhood engagement for him years ago.
On their wedding night, everyone said, "Young Master Ting, we heard your childhood fiancée is good at using silver needles; you should be careful." Young Master Ting looked disdainful: "Rumor! How could a country woman be so formidable?"
Later, Young Master Ting was pricked numb, his little wife stole his genes and fled, and his social reputation was ruined! Five years later, everyone said, "Young Master Ting, your childhood fiancée seems to have secretly returned to the country. She lives downstairs from you and brought a child."
Young Master Ting gritted his teeth: "Nonsense! How could she get pregnant with a child from just that one time back then?" Later, Young Master Ting was dumbfounded: it really wasn't just one child, but three children!
A few months later, everyone said, "Young Master Ting, the young master said that the medical genius Chan Yi you've been looking for is his mother!" Young Master Ting frowned, hesitant: "That's impossible, isn't it?"
Everyone added, "Not only Chan Yi, but the culinary master, the musical king, the number one beauty, and even your first love -- it's her, it's her, it's all her!" This time, Young Master Ting couldn't sit still.
He immediately gave the order: "What are we waiting for? Come with me and beg the young madam to come home!"
CompletedAlso known as "Shan Shan Marries Liang" and "Daily Life of an Ancient Lady Painter."
The younger brother experiences a marriage of convenience, followed by a love chase and a "crematorium" (painful pursuit of reconciliation). The elder brother attempts to seize his brother's wife (but fails). The main text is written in the third person.
Updates are every other day at 3 PM.
Regarding Xue Shanhe, the Resilient and Independent Daughter of a Criminal Official: When I was almost reduced to an official slave, forced to serve men, it was Old Master Liang who saved my life. Therefore, I'm willing to do anything to repay his kindness.
It's alright if Liang Shao doesn't like me. It's also alright if we sign a divorce agreement on our wedding night. As long as Old Master Liang doesn't worry and lives a few more healthy years, I'll do anything.
For two years, I cared for the gravely ill Old Master Liang while secretly saving money. Once the Old Master passed away, I would honor my promise and leave with the divorce agreement. I planned to return to Jinling, rent a small courtyard by the Qinhuai River, and live by selling paintings. That sounded quite good.
The day after the Old Master's burial, I asked Liang Shao for the divorce agreement. His eyes widened, and his voice almost cracked, "You want a divorce?!"
He threw a huge tantrum and stormed out. But later that evening, he tiptoed into bed and hugged me, "Shan Shan, Grandfather's greatest wish was for us to have a child of our own. Let's fulfill the old man's dying wish before you leave, okay?"
Regarding Liang Shao, the Tsundere "Puppy" Doted on by his Grandfather and Brother: I, your young master, hate being controlled the most! If it weren't for Xue Shanhe, I would have decided my own marriage!
However, she is quite sensible. She readily signed the divorce agreement on the wedding night and even promised to leave immediately once Grandfather was gone. Good. I'll give her more money then, so she won't disgrace her status as my ex-wife.
It's just... having a woman in the house really feels different. My protective soft armor needs pink flowers and green leaves embroidered on it, and I need to bring a good luck charm when I go on official business... Tsk. She even secretly saved money, and only after much pressing did she shyly say, "I wanted to save some money to buy a top-notch soft armor for Second Master. When Second Master goes to Beimian in the future, it can protect him."
Would I, your young master, care for something bought with her small amount of money? That night, the wind was strong, and the divorce agreement blew over the candlelight, quickly turning to ashes. Oh well, if it's burned, it's burned. Writing another one would be too troublesome.
Regarding Liang Ye, the Upright and Self-Restrained Third-Place Scholar Brother: The first time I saw her, she was sitting beside Ashao, demure, with only a plain silver hairpin in her hair. I heard the servants say that her family was from Jinling, the only descendant of Grandfather's most favored student from years past. After her family was raided, Grandfather saved her so she wouldn't be enslaved.
I also heard that Ashao didn't like her, and he married her because Grandfather traded a chance to gain experience in Beimian for this marriage. But she seemed quite good to Ashao. When Ashao was drunk, she personally brewed hangover soup; when Ashao was injured, she cared for him tirelessly for two months.
Until that day, I accidentally found the divorce agreement in Ashao's study. So, all of this was just an act to repay Grandfather's kindness. Foolish Ashao, truly living in a blessed state without realizing it.
Later, after Grandfather passed away, she knelt before me: "I want to divorce Ashao, please help me, elder brother." Xue Shanhe, you came to my door on your own initiative.

CompletedSynopsis: (Main story concluded) [Rough Prairie Man vs. Chang'an Beauty]
[Marriage First, Love Later + Smacking Faces]
Ruan Yu's true identity was revealed, and she became a fake young lady overnight. Coinciding with an arranged marriage, she was pulled to be a substitute bride for Princess Hualun and boarded the carriage the very next day.
After two months of bumpy travel and a hasty wedding, the prairie man seemed displeased with her on their wedding night. This awkward marriage was disdained by Chang'an, and the other party wasn't necessarily willing either.
The young man before her had long, narrow black eyes and exuded the raw masculinity of someone baked in the sun. "You are too delicate; you'll be torn to shreds by wolves here! Starting tomorrow, follow my elder sister closely and be filial to my Mother. I'm not interested in Chang'an women."
Ruan Yu knew her identity was awkward, but after marrying out, she never thought of turning back. On the prairie, she personally raised silkworms, cultivated crops, and brought wheat seeds and tools.
Gradually, who didn't know that the Fourth Kahatun was intelligent, resourceful, kind, and beautiful? If she lived well on the prairie, her mother and younger brother in Chang'an could also live well. She was very satisfied with her current life.
It was just that, the man from the beginning... She somewhat missed the days when they kept to themselves, like water from separate wells. Because she didn't know when, but wherever she went, she felt someone watching her.
That gaze followed her like a shadow. Sometimes when she woke up, there would be several red marks on her wrists and neck, as if marking property... Ruan Yu could no longer tolerate it and slapped him. "Your Royal Highness, are you a dog?"
Chaolu looked at her: "Yes, only yours."
[Short Theater]
A year ago, Chaolu had no interest in sleeping with her: "She looks like a rabbit, without two ounces of flesh on her. Better to learn to work and get in shape." A year later... The man rushed into the bedroom, yelling, "Why can't we sleep again! I've already finished all the work!"
Ruan Yu raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at him: "What are you shouting about? If you keep making a racket, don't even think about coming back to the room." The man instantly deflated— "No, wife, I was wrong."
CompletedSynopsis: The sickly but resilient and free-spirited white-cut-black little county princess vs. the rebellious but straightforward and clingy young general.
Feng Mian dreamed she married a dashing and talented top scholar, living a smooth life after marriage. Upon waking, she gleefully went to claim her fated marriage, only to be unexpectedly tricked into marrying far away to the Northern Frontier.
The heir of the Dingbei Royal family in the Northern Frontier was famously known as the "Little Evil Star," rumored to be as ugly as Zhong Kui, arrogant, and unruly. Everyone in Shengjing sighed with pity: "The little county princess is marrying him; life will probably be difficult."
Feng Mian wholeheartedly agreed, because she had another dream: the entire Dingbei Royal family would be annihilated due to the heir's rebellion! Her marriage meant stepping with one foot into the gates of hell.
Feng Mian decided she had to keep an eye on that unlucky heir and nip the potential crime of rebellion in the bud!
Baili Xunzhou, the heir of Dingbei Royal family, detested delicate and arrogant Shengjing noblewomen. Yet, he was suddenly granted a marriage to a county princess. Hearing that the sickly princess could fall ill with a breeze, he grew even more indignant: "This isn't marrying a wife, this is marrying an ancestor!"
"Call off the engagement! It must be called off!" But... why does this troublesome county princess keep secretly watching him? Even when he went to dangerous border towns to suppress bandits, she disregarded her frail health and resolutely followed him.
Could she be so fond of him?
The people of the Northern Frontier, hearing that Shengjing had sent an imperial woman to control the King of Dingbei, firmly sided with the heir. They united to try and make the county princess retreat in the face of difficulties.
After employing various schemes, the marriage still proceeded as scheduled. The heir was compelled to complete the wedding, and the people of the Northern Frontier wrung their hands, lamenting: "This county princess is truly an extraordinary character!"
But... the new species of crops the Princess Consort brought back from foreign lands were easy to grow and filling, so they no longer had to worry about famine. The Princess Consort transformed ornamental kapok into a lightweight and warm padding material; they would no longer freeze to death in the streets.
The people of the Northern Frontier gradually became loyal supporters of the Princess Consort: "Um, if the heir and Princess Consort divorce, can we be assigned to the Princess Consort?"
Baili Xunzhou brandished his long spear: "Who dares to mention divorce again?!"
Feng Mian weakly raised her hand: "I want to..."
Baili Xunzhou dropped his long spear, pouting and leaning closer: "No, you don't!"
Both are first loves, with unique hearts and minds.
Tagline: The short-lived young general welcomes his savior.
Theme: Walking hand-in-hand, growing together.
Completed【The main text deviates significantly from pirated content, please support legitimate reading, Thanks?(?ω?)?】 Xie Tang's life was never a fairy tale. She was a victorious lawyer in court and a daughter stubbornly holding on at her mother's sickbed.
Until the Qin family's marriage contract arrived: "Marry Chu Song, and ten million is yours." The silent boy she once gave candy to was now Chu San Shao, the presumptive heir to the Chu Group.
His eyes were dim: "You have no choice." She sneered: "Add another condition—I want the Qin family's old mansion." A fake marriage? It was just a matter of mutual needs.
But no one told her—Chu Song remembered her six-year-old smile, her tears at the airport, and even more...
In this marriage, he had long calculated her heart. She thought it was just a transaction, but he gave his true heart. She thought it was true love, but he had already meticulously planned every step.
【Trigger Warnings】 1. Marriage first, then love / mutual redemption / rich family story, involving some business warfare. 2. Both protagonists are pure, but this novel is not a lighthearted, refreshing read.
CompletedOn the day the emperor passed away, the noble consort, with a three-foot-long white silk sash, hanged herself. However, the Crown Prince arrived in time and saved her.
He caressed her neck, which was covered in red marks, and laughed, "Father loved you dearly, how could he bear to let you be buried with him?" The palace servants present dared not utter a word. Everyone knew that five years ago, she had been his unbetrothed Crown Princess.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, she was confined in the deep palace, counting the fallen leaves outside her window to pass the days. At the age of twenty-four, Lou Xueying died of melancholy. It is said that on the day she died, snow fell across the sky, and the new emperor ignored the entire court of civil and military officials, rushing unsteadily into her bedchamber, holding her corpse, and weeping uncontrollably.
Lou Xueying opened her eyes and returned to her eighteen years. In this year, she had not yet met the Crown Prince, nor had she met the Emperor. She had been entangled with these two men for an entire lifetime, suffering for an entire lifetime. In this new life, she wanted to start fresh.
She set her sights on the Great General who had just returned victorious from battle. This man was brave and skilled in combat, unrestrained, and was soon to be enfeoffed as Marquis Wu'an. The peace of the border depended on him, and if she could become his wife, no one would dare to harm her again.
Lou Xueying employed some tactics and successfully married the Great General. Although the Great General was a bit crude, he treated her extremely well. If he could only be a little more reserved at night, it would be even better.
Lou Xueying thought her life would continue to be peaceful and warm like this. Until one day, she suddenly discovered that the Emperor and the Crown Prince had also reincarnated.
[Reading Notice] 1. The male lead is the Great General. 2. The two male supporting characters gradually recall their previous lives after the female lead's marriage, leading to a "shuraba" (love battlefield) and "crematorium" (regret/chasing after) scenario. 3. Not a "strong female lead", but a character who grows and develops.
CompletedWen Yining married her ex-boyfriend's best friend. After marriage, she completely lost her freedom.
Shen Yueze laid down three rules with her, his expression dark, voice cold and hard, intensely oppressive and brooking no refusal. 1. No contact with other men. 2. No contact with her ex-boyfriend. 3. No accepting gifts from other men.
Late at night, in the bedroom, Shen Yueze's expression was cold and gloomy as he reviewed his wife's activity log, checking who she had met and dined with throughout the day.
She sat obediently in his arms, trying to coax him, and for the first time, actively kissed him. "Your possessiveness is a bit too much. I married you, I'm not your pet. Why do you have to control everything?"
He tightened his arm around her slender waist, his voice deep and sexy: "I'm not running a charity. I've given so much, there must be a price."
Wen Yining, seeing no room for discussion, coldly left his embrace, shrugged off his arm, and secretly cursed him as a pervert. He gripped the back of her neck and kissed her roughly. "Don't you know how to coax a man? You were quite good at acting coquettish when you were with him, weren't you?"
In college, Wen Yining and her boyfriend were a famously good-looking couple, often inseparable when out together. She knew all of her boyfriend's good friends, but only Shen Yueze was cold and aloof towards her.
She thought he disliked her and didn't pay it much mind, actively keeping her distance. Little did she know that on her birthday, she received a limited edition gift from him, worth 500,000, much more expensive than what her boyfriend gave her.
In the early morning, she received a message from him: "He can't marry you, only I can give you what you want." She only thought he was a thrill-seeking young master and ruthlessly blacklisted him.
Half a year later, a change occurred. Wen Yining's family needed a large sum of money. Her boyfriend secretly borrowed money from Shen Yueze, but Shen Yueze privately lured her out.
He casually asked about other things: "How long have you two been together?" "Two years." "How does he treat you?" "Quite well."
His gaze fell directly on the ambiguous red mark on her chest. "The hickey on your body, he did it?" His expression was dark and gloomy, suppressing the insane jealousy in his heart. "...That's not a hickey."
Wen Yining sensed something was wrong with him and turned to leave. He had already locked the door. "How much money do you need?" "..." "I'll give you this money." "What's the condition?" "Marry me."
The wealthy young master snatched her away, his personality vile, prejudiced, psychotic, and roguish. "Love is possession, destruction, damage, resorting to any means to get the other person."
1. Both are virgins. 2. The male lead has an ex. 3. This involves spoilers, so I can only say the story is very twisted, the characters have many flaws, the female lead is love-struck and not clear-headed.
None of them are good people, so if you have high expectations for characters, do not enter! Everyone's taste is different, please subscribe with caution.
CompletedShen Nanxing, a notorious villainess from the Transmigration Bureau, caused every man she flirted with to marry early!
To avoid her clutches, her superior decisively forced her into early retirement, sending her directly to the Water Blue Star.
When she opened her eyes, Shen Nanxing went crazy! "Whose stinky socks are these? Trying to suffocate me?" "And whose chicken-claw hand is this?" "Little Marvel, get out here, where am I now?"
"Host, you've been fired by the Transmigration Bureau. This is your retirement home from now on!" "Damn it! You scoundrel boss, how could you do this to me? I $%#@&..."
However, more drama was yet to come! "Is this handsome guy really my husband?" Tsk tsk... eight-pack abs, a lean waist, this man is now mine!
P.S.: The synopsis is weak, please try reading the first 5 chapters. If you don't like it, please don't bash it. It's an alternate history, and the author is new (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭~
CompletedBook Transmigration + Space + Face-slapping Scum + Marriage First, Love Later + Chasing Wife in Crematorium. Bright and alluring capital young lady VS beautiful, strong, and miserable gloomy villain military officer (both pure).
Ruan Yuntang transmigrated into a period novel, becoming the capital young lady who caused the beautiful, strong, and miserable male supporting character to be imprisoned for seven years. Her scumbag father was ambitious; to benefit his illegitimate son, he tarnished her innocence and sent her to the countryside, attempting to seize all the family assets left by her biological mother.
Ruan Yuntang retaliated by scheming to make her scumbag father, stepmother, and the mistress turn against each other, sending all the scumbag men and women to jail! She emptied her scumbag father's vault, absconded with the family assets, and conveniently rescued the pretty, pitiful male supporting character.
However, as she continued to save him, she noticed something was very wrong with the male supporting character, who was supposed to be gentle and kind in the original text. Where was the gentleness and kindness?...
On the day of their contract marriage, the man coldly warned her, "Don't bother me, or I'll kill you." Ruan Yuntang felt she had saved the wrong person and only waited for the contract to expire for a divorce.
Later, in the dark of night, he pressed close to her body, his voice as low as a ghost's, "Tell me, do you like me, or do you like them?" Ruan Yuntang trembled like a sieve, her voice broken, "Both..." The man smiled gently, "Tangtang, speak properly." The tip of the blade against her neck glinted coldly, and Ruan Yuntang was on the verge of tears, "I like you, I like you!"
