Master-Servant Relationship
A Sound of Wutong Leaves, A Sound of Autumn
My lady was injured and lost her memory. She forgot everyone, yet she remembered my husband.
My husband was once a beggar.
During a heavy winter snowfall, he lay by the roadside, covered in blood and filth.
Passersby all steered clear of him, but my lady alone ordered her carriage to stop and took him in.
From then on, he stayed in the manor to tend the horses for her.
My lady often visited him under the pretext of checking on the horses.
I saw the deep, lingering affection in their eyes with my own.
But how could a young lady of her status ever marry a horse slave?
Heartbroken, she told him:
“I cannot marry you.
“But I will find someone to take care of you in my stead.”
My lady personally betrothed me to him.
Later, the lowly horse slave found his way back to the imperial capital and reclaimed his identity as a prince.
I, in turn, became his legitimate consort.
On the day of the investiture, I was waiting.
I knew.
Sooner or later, my lady would come back to reclaim what was originally hers.
Bite Marks
Introduction: Ning Qiuyan participated in a Volunteer Medical Program, serving as a Humanoid Blood Bag for a certain powerful figure suffering from a blood disorder.
Guan Heng, the legendary mysterious tycoon, lives a reclusive and extremely low-profile life. When a photo of him was leaked, he quietly became popular online for his long hair and striking, androgynous beauty.
Ning Qiuyan discovered:
Guan Heng never appears in daylight; his house always has the curtains drawn, and they only meet at night.
Guan Heng has pale skin, a cold and eccentric personality, and every time Ning Qiuyan is asked to donate blood, he must first fast and bathe.
That house is cold and dark, with no sunlight.
Guan Heng’s heartbeat is slow, and his body temperature is icy.
The first time Ning Qiuyan fell asleep during the blood donation, he woke up to find a bite mark on the side of his neck.
And he, inexplicably, found himself wanting to submit to Guan Heng.
Fragrant Intrigue
I am the dowry maid for the legitimate daughter of the Shen Manor.
Last night, I woke up in the Heir’s bed.
Now, the servants of the entire manor are pointing and whispering at me: “A lowly wench like this deserves to be beaten to death with clubs!”
Shen Yujiao sat regally at the head of the hall. “In that case, let’s just promote her to a Concubine.”
She watched with a smile as I knelt and kowtowed to thank her for her mercy.
Yet, I caught the scent of Hehuan Powder in the air.
That was the very incense I had blended with my own hands for her husband’s use.
He Is My Moon, I Am His Shadow
On the day of the grand wedding, every guest in the hall witnessed Ah Ying take a sword strike intended for Gu Yanzhi.
No one knew that the blades, arrows, and poisons she had endured for him throughout her life were already enough to have killed her many times over.
All she had ever waited for was to die in his arms and hear him call her name just once.
The Canary Who Always Wants to Usurp the Throne
Chapter 0
I am the most low-maintenance Canary in the Shanghai Circle’s elite social scene.
On the surface, I have no interest in causing trouble; in reality, I am single-mindedly focused on making money.
Everything the Big Boss gives me, I liquidate.
Stocks, bonds, and physical investments-I let the money breed more money, compounding the interest.
I secretly invested in his rival’s company and even took the opportunity to acquire shares in the Big Boss’s own firm.
On the day the truth finally came out, the Big Boss looked at my thick stack of asset reports and let out a cold laugh.
“Other Canaries want to climb the social ladder and take a seat at the table,” he said. “You, on the other hand, want to usurp the throne.”
