Five years ago, the Chen parents packaged Chen Luoru’s elder sister, Chen Yang, into a glamorous socialite and tried to sell her off to the Meng family’s heir, Meng Jianchen, who was studying in the U.S. at the time.... more>>

On the eve of the wedding, Chen Yang was found to be pregnant—but the child wasn’t his. To avoid a massive scandal, the Chen parents bombarded Chen Luoru with desperate calls, forcing her to return to China and take her sister’s place.

Chen Luoru: “I still have to go to college! Why would I get married?”

Chen Parents: “Meng Jianchen has already agreed to this marriage.”

Chen Luoru: “Is he a devil or something?”

—

1. After four years of marriage, Chen Luoru and Meng Jianchen are practically strangers, barely seeing each other.

One night, she walks out of a glitzy London bar with a male friend—only to spot a tall, elegant man standing by a Rolls-Royce Phantom.

Meng Jianchen holds a long umbrella, a wedding ring glinting on the ring finger of his left hand. Raindrops slide off the umbrella’s edge as he presses his lips together, eyes unreadable and deep.

Chen Luoru hears him speak slowly: “Had enough fun, Mrs. Meng?”

—

2. For the Nth time, Chen Luoru asks Meng Jianchen for a divorce—but this damned man is like fireproof steel: can’t be steamed, boiled, hammered, or fried.

Fuming, she storms into a luxury boutique and goes on a wild shopping spree—using his credit card.

Uncharacteristically, Meng Jianchen follows her in: “Stop making a scene. Come home.”

Chen Luoru coos: “Can’t you even sweet-talk me a little?”

Meng Jianchen wraps his arm around her waist and softly says: “Be good. Don’t be mad. Come home with me, hmm?”

Chen Luoru flips faster than a page in a book: “Brother-in-law, don’t be like this—my sister is still waiting for you at home!”

All eyes in the store instantly snap toward Meng Jianchen. <<less

They met in their teenage years, two bright stars colliding in the night sky. They fell in love, and together they passed the happiest days of their lives. But all good things must come to an end, and they eventually broke up.

One day, they met again by chance. They were both on blind dates, and they found themselves sitting across from each other. They were both surprised by how much they had changed.

Due to an accident, Lin Yuxi married the person she had secretly loved for many years. ... more>>

Even though he had many misunderstandings about her, she remained optimistic and held steadfast to her marriage.

Unfortunately, love cannot be waited for.

For seven whole years, what Lin Yuxi waited for was the appearance of another woman, as well as Fu Tingchuan's excessive indifference and hurt.

At that moment, she finally gave up. Throwing down the divorce agreement and leaving with her son, in just one year, Lin Yuxi earned over a hundred million in assets.

One day, Fu Tingchuan looked at the report his subordinate sent, his wife was a big shot in the industry, and his son was a popular child model, he was filled with regret.

The only way this ugly duckling with no friends endures his solitude is by writing letters to his sponsor who provides his scholarship.

However, the sponsor who had always responded with silence to all letters, made a proposal one day...

"Promise me you'll become an outstanding ballet dancer. If you do, I'll support you with everything you want."

"I always get scolded a lot at school. I'm curious why you want to support me when I haven't done anything well yet. I just keep causing trouble..."

"You'll understand that in time."

"..."

"If the student I support becomes an outstanding dancer in the future, everyone will say I was right."

― So let's surprise everyone together.

At his whispered words, the boy who had always been alone was deeply moved and burst into tears.

Swaying between getting his hopes up and being disappointed, his desire to be acknowledged by him grew into love…

Dear sponsor, I like you.

I think I like you. No, I'm sure. I may be s*upid, but I know this much.

When I become an adult, I'll definitely confess, so please don't disappear until then.

The boy, holding this unsaid confession in his heart, gradually transforms into a beautiful swan.

A century and more ago, China was embroiled in turmoil and instability. Opium usage was rampant in the country. Foreign powers carved up China’s land into foreign-controlled concessions and leased out lands. The Qing Dynasty was on its last legs. Military warlords and cliques fought for power. People rose up to fight for change, some wanting reform and to institute a constitutional monarchy, some wanting a revolution, to completely change the political situation.... more>>

This is the backdrop of our story, which opens in the year 1911. It is truly a historical romance, with many references to historical events and people.

Shen Xi is a wanted criminal of the Qing Dynasty, not for any crime that she committed but because her father was charged as a reformist and punishment was doled out to the entire clan. She has been living hidden away in the dirtiest of places, until one day something happens and she is rescued by the Third Master of the House of Fu, Fu Tongwen. Third Master Fu, the romantic, suave young master known for his love of women and frivolity, whose wealth is countless, sends her abroad to study and guarantees the safety and well-being of the rest of her life. She thinks that the ties between the two of them are merely the letters she regularly posts to him and the replies he sends back, but one day he appears in the parlour of her townhouse in New York. During this time, her interaction with him increases until one day she abruptly makes the decision to return to China. In her travels and interaction with him, she learns that this man who on the outside appears to be (by a modern-day terms), a playboy in reality holds a heart for his country and its people and carries a longing to bring change—to see a China restored to splendour and prosperity.

The Third Master Fu of her first encounter with him was a rich, frivolous young lord who would reserve half of an entire venue for only the purpose of increasing the popularity of the entertainer he was fond of, a man who liked to sit with one ankle resting on the thigh of the other leg, his head tilted to the side to quietly converse with the wealthy young masters around him. In the glow of lamplight, the side view of his face exuded an air of dissolute suaveness. It was only later that she saw the real him: In the dim illumination, what he sat upon were actually piles of white skeletons and what he guarded were the vast, magnificent lands of the nation. <<less

After graduating from the Department of Theater and Film, Mirang was working as an extra in the movie industry when she unexpectedly landed a significant role in a new film by a famous director. ... more>>

Her joy is short-lived, however, when the revised script comes back with a passionate bed scene. She was about to give up on her role, but when she saw her older sister struggling to support her, she strengthened her resolve.

Following her senior’s advice to gain experience if she had none, Mirang came to Itaewon to find a partner. There, she offered to help a soldier who had his wallet and passport stolen.

He was perfect for a no-strings-attached practice session.

“Hello? My name is Mirang Kang. Can I help you?”

“No, thank you.”

He rejected her outright, but she couldn’t give up now. Embarrassed, with her ears red and lips trembling, Mirang pushes on, her determination outweighing her shame.

“I help you, you help me. Okay?”

The man stares at her for a long moment before he sighs and nods reluctantly.

“…Okay.”

After paying for his drinks and bringing him to her home, Mirang discovers, to her delight, that he speaks Korean. She eagerly hands him the script, only to face his scorn after he reads it.

“Adult film? So, you’re a p*rn actress?”

“What? p*rno? Are you insane?”

“No?”

“I’m really not that kind of actress! I get that just reading the script might give that impression… but it’s really not that kind of movie.”

After many twists and turns, the two began practicing. What started as strict adherence to the script soon turned into dangerous, breathtaking improvisation.

André de Lafayette never lost sight of his position. Having completed his military service per his family’s tradition, he was returning to New York when he met Mirang by chance. Experiencing his first deviation from a meticulously planned life, he finds his cold blue blood stirred by unfamiliar emotions.

A woman with a flame-like innocence in her heart meets a man with blue blood as cold as ice. Will the flame extinguish first, or will the ice melt away?

This is a retro romance with an analog feel that unfolds between Seoul and New York in the mid-90s. <<less

A genius girl from a family of medical professionals, due to an accident, transmigrated into a period novel and became the vicious female supporting character.... more>>

Ye Xiaoxiao was the fake daughter of the Hao family. Growing up in the courtyard of the capital, she was the white moonlight of the young people in the courtyard.

Until the age of seventeen, the real daughter returned, and the gears of fate began to turn.

The white moonlight turned into a grain of rice, admirers changed their allegiance one after another, and under the contrast of the ambitious female lead, she was belittled to be worthless.

Not only that, Ye Xiaoxiao's biological parents were all cannon fodder-like existences in the book.

Her father fell off a mountain slope and died tragically, her mother was bedridden with exhaustion.

Her eldest brother worked hard to become wealthy, but he was involved in a mine accident while working in the mine, and his family didn't even get compensation.

Her second brother was doing well in the army, but he was sent on a dangerous mission for offending his superiors and died in the line of duty.

Her third brother had a talent for business and thrived as a speculator, but he was framed by his brothers in a business competition.

Her fourth brother was intelligent and wise, but he became paralyzed due to a medical accident.

Ye Xiaoxiao, who transmigrated into the book, looked at her family who cared for her in every way and secretly decided: Screw the original book, I will defy fate!

...

Years later, Hao Yanyan, who had escaped from her adoptive parents' family, accidentally reunited with her family.

Who could tell her why her father became an instructor, her mother became a professor?

Her eldest brother was a mining tycoon, her second brother was the most promising officer, her third brother had opened a multinational trading company, and her fourth brother was a graduate student at a prestigious university.

Even the "Yan Wang" that the courtyard youths often mentioned had become Ye family's son-in-law!

Jiang Shouyan, seeking solace, traveled to Lisbon where he encountered a mixed-race man.... more>>

Wild, free-spirited, and in great shape.

He dragged his surfboard to Jiang Shouyan, who was sunbathing on the beach, and said in perfect Mandarin: “Chinese?”

Jiang Shouyan later learned that he was his landlord.

Cheng Zaiye’s property was exclusively rented to Chinese tourists and was always stocked with wine and fresh egg tarts.

It was simply because he once had a chance encounter with a Chinese man outside a pastry shop. A few short meetings, yet the image remained etched in his mind for six years.

Later, he would return to Lisbon for a few months every year. Until the seventh year of summer, when he came ashore from the cool sea like previous years and with an accidental glance, caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

He was slightly thinner and taller than he remembered, his eyes more languid.

He walked over slowly, his heart beating like a drum, yet his voice remained calm as he asked, “Chinese?”

The moment Jiang Shouyan raised his eyes, no summer was more brilliant than that seventh year.

We spent three years together in Ohio, living a simple yet respectful life. During his downhearted days, we took care of each other, supporting one another. Most of the time, it was me, a poor college student, looking after him and his children.... more>>

I've listened to him recount countless times the incidents where the Cheng family betrayed his kindness and integrity for personal gain... I also know all about how that wicked woman from the Cheng family toyed with his emotions but chose another partner for marriage.

He finally made it.

Ohio couldn't hold him down. With a fresh influx of financing, he wiped away his past disgrace and resolved to take the children back to our home country. The night before returning, his dark eyes were particularly deep and affectionate. He swore, "I will organize a top-notch, luxurious wedding for you."

My face was all smiles of contentment and reliance on him.

However, a dreadful dream surfaced in my mind. This man, who professed deep love and affection for me, would return to our home country and marry the vain Miss Cheng, whom he despised so much, in less than half a month.

Their story followed the clichéd script of reuniting after a breakup, falling in love after marriage, and the children playing matchmaker.

As for me, the insignificant supporting lady, I was just like Wang Baochuan1, accompanying him around low-end wholesale markets in the United States, buying heaps of cheap goods to save him money, a fool who hesitated to spend each dollar, converting it into Chinese yuan instead.

I could tolerate him choosing any woman for her wealth, but I never imagined he would stoop so low as to seek Cheng Shuangyi's favor again.

How could Shen Qi do this?

He's betraying not just me but also his impoverished, dirty past and the last shreds of conscience in a man.

That night, after packing his few belongings and discarding the rest marked by his presence, I left him with only one sentence, "Get lost, the farther the better."

　[Small Theater]

After Shen Qi returned to the country, it was a time of revelry every night, a life of luxury and extravagance. Those who once looked down on him, who discarded him like worn-out shoes, suddenly reentered his world, seeking his forgiveness.

He thought he was the winner.

Yet, his heart felt hollow, and the image of that foolish woman often haunted his thoughts.

He never believed he truly loved her, considering it merely a complete exploitation. Yet, he couldn't see genuine sincerity in anyone else but her.

Finally, when he heard news of her return, he went mad, ordering his two children to dress neatly and accompany him to the airport to welcome the woman who filled his eyes—

Yet, she walked past him indifferently.

As if their three years together had never existed.

[Most of the character names in this novel come from Langston Hughes' poetry]

1: Wang Baochuan is a character from Chinese folklore and drama. She is known for her loyalty and devotion to her husband, General Xue Pinggui, in the story "The Legend of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" (also known as "The Butterfly Lovers"). In some adaptations, Wang Baochuan's loyalty to her husband is exemplified by her waiting faithfully for him despite the passage of time and various challenges they face. The FL describes herself as similar to Wang Baochuan, suggesting that, like Wang Baochuan, she feels overlooked and undervalued in her relationship with her partner. The comparison serves to illustrate her feelings of insignificance and the imbalance in their relationship dynamic. <<less
