Jian Yi Shuang (简伊霜) wasn't expecting to wind up in an engagement with a stranger she'd barely met. But given with her upbringing as a rich young miss, there were certain things in life that one had to give up in exchange for the comfortable life.
When she realizes though, that her fiancé happens to be a cute stranger she bumped into at her favorite bookstore, she starts to see things a little differently. Maybe, just maybe that this engagement might work out after all.
***
Guo Shao Yan (郭邵言) has been told for a long time to find a partner and start a family. Finally tired of the nagging and the increasingly annoying amount of dog food (狗粮) showered around him, he relents to a business engagement, hoping to put an end to his parents' worries.
When he officially meets the fresh high school graduate again at a luncheon, his uncertainties of taking advantage of a young girl suddenly disappears as he grows in his interest to tease her and watch her grow to become the person she is to be. Perhaps the one he has been waiting for all this while, has finally arrived.
A slow tale of love and companionship between two people.
Theme:

Soft Silence
"𝐼𝑛 𝑎 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝑓𝑢𝑙𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑜𝑛𝑠, 𝑠ℎ𝑒'𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑢𝑛." 𝘿𝙞𝙮𝙖 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙖 is kind, too kind and strong in the way that makes people forget she bleeds too. Love was never expected, only endurance. So when her father asked her to marry she nodded... not out of hope, but habit. 𝙑𝙚𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙈𝙖𝙡𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙧𝙖, grew up in a home that taught him how to build empires but never taught him how to ask for a hug. Marriage was never part of the plan until a hospital room, a fading pulse, and the one man he could never disappoint whispered a final wish. Neither expected warmth. Neither expected understanding. And they definitely didn't expect comfort in each's other's silence. A tale of quiet yearning- an arranged marriage where silence becomes a language and love sneaks in when no one's looking. - M 💌
Accidentally in love
Ten years ago, best friends Minji and Hanni made a pact - if they were both still single by age 25 they'd marry each other. It was half-joke, half-dream - born out of their shared fear of loneliness and their deep bond. Now, Ten years later, they're both still single - and surprisingly, they keep their promise. What starts as a symbolic act of loyalty and companionship slowly blossoms into something real - but love, they realize, is more than friendship with vows. As they navigate shared spaces, emotional intimacy, and the expectations of others, Minji and Hanni discover that their bond must evolve - from comfort to passion, from understanding to vulnerability. This story is going to be Bbangsaz x Daerin Slowburn Fluff + Slice of Life so its going to be day to day stories with no clear plot 🥹 Thanks
Halfway to you
Neither of them believed in love - not really. Sheng Shaoyou was an exhausted architecture student, too busy chasing perfection and deadlines to chase feelings. Hua Yong was a multimedia major with an easy smile, a string of admirers, and no plans for forever. When they met, it wasn't meant to be anything more than a distraction - two people finding warmth in fleeting nights and unspoken rules. But casual things have a cruel way of turning into something deeper. What starts as late-night drives and unplanned park visits becomes a tangled rhythm of wanting and running - of glances that last too long, and silences that hurt too much. Every time one of them moves closer, the other takes a step back. Until everything finally shatters. And maybe that's what love really is - breaking apart just to find your way back again. Told through soft moments, missed chances, and years of learning to stay, halfway to you is a story of two people who never meant to fall in love... but did, completely - slowly, beautifully, and irrevocably. Because sometimes, peace doesn't come after the storm. Sometimes, it's the person who stands beside you through it. The idea is mine and as this is my 6th book, i still feel i am a noob so please tolerate the journey with me?😤 Warning: Angst MxM No cheating Happy ending? Don't read if you don't want to read a gay fanfiction 🙂Complete

His Veiled Bride(On Hold)
In the dim glow of the wedding chamber, his words fell like shards of glass, sharp and unforgiving. "This marriage was arranged by my grandfather out of some foolish friendship, but I will never accept it," he declared, his voice cold as winter frost. "Tonight, I'll leave this country and this farce of a marriage behind. I refuse to be trapped in a life I never chose." Without a backward glance, he turned and walked away, his footsteps echoing like the final notes of a requiem. He left her there alone, abandoned, discarded as if she were nothing more than a relic of duty and tradition. She sat unmoving, a silent figure draped in red and gold, the weight of her bridal veil a shroud of sorrow. Beneath its folds, unseen by any living soul, a single tear traced its path down her cheek a tear born of love unspoken, dreams unwoven, and a heart breaking silently in the night. Her voice, barely more than a whisper, trembled with the ache of a soul left forsaken. "Bina Piya Ji, Mein kaise Jiyu?" The words hung in the stillness like a prayer to a merciless fate, fragile, desperate, and unanswered. In that moment, the air grew heavy with unspoken anguish and the promise of a destiny forever altered by the cruelty of choices never her own. This was not merely the end of a wedding night; it was the dawn of a battle between heart and fate, love and loss, with scars yet to be written upon the pages of her life. This poignant moment marks the beginning of a journey filled with heartbreak, resilience, and the search for a destiny beyond the bonds of an unchosen fate... ____________________ Tropes ________ Royal Romance Grumpy X Sunshine Drama x Humour forced Proximity arrange marriage Protective X Possessive Unrequited crush Princess and Director ________________________
