When Mi Wu returned from the countryside to the Marquis's residence, everyone mocked her. They said she was shameless, too seductive, unfit for the palace, and destined for failure.

But she was chosen. Very soon she became the emperor's closest companion, the woman he could not leave for even a night.

They laughed that she had no title, that she was nothing but a passing toy. Surely he would grow tired of her.

Yet the emperor's desire only deepened. Even the sixth prince Cui Shu, the most trusted of all, was expelled for daring to cross her.

When Cui Shu later seized the throne, the world was certain Mi Wu's end had come.

But one decree shattered every doubt. Cui Shu named her empress. The court was left stunned, unable to speak.

---

The first time Cui Shu saw her, she was punishing servants-wild, defiant, untamed.

The second time, she danced under the moon-soft, dazzling, almost unreal.

The third time, she rested on his lap-pitiful, tender, begging for care.

Mi Wu was temptation itself, beauty laced with danger. 

Cui Shu knew her heart held schemes, yet he was drawn closer, consumed by her. He vowed to make her his, but after she used him, she turned away and became the emperor's favorite instead.

Her beauty was no longer a gift. It became knives, piercing deeper and deeper into Cui Shu's heart.

(Scheming Beauty × Possessive Male Lead)

Warnings:

1. The heroine is beautiful, but ruthless.

2. This is not a "revenge face-slapping" story. The focus is on romance, intrigue, and scheming.

3. Set in a fictional world. Neither main character is kind or innocent.

"Can I date you?" His brows were very expressive and now the light of his green eyes shone when I showed a difficult expression; it was after all reflected in his eyes. "No" His body that was crouched to level against my small frame stood up; he was massively intimidating yet he always reminds me of the goofy joker we have in the back of our high school class. "It's fine, I'll ask you again" "Give up, I don't want to fall in love with a player like you, no offense" I bit my lower lip in contemplation, I didn't hate him nor dislike him. In particular, we get along well to the point that it still surprises me today. But I just don't want to get hurt. I can already see it in the future and I know I'm too negative but I just don't want to risk my heart for something I knew won't go well. 'But what if it did?' My heart whispered but I buried it down, not wanting to fall into my truest desire and his green playful eyes. "None taken" He gave me that familiar smirk of his which left me somewhat annoyed and when I was about to turn back, I stop in my tracks when I heard his words. "You know I'll always ask you for a date because I like you right? This is not a joke or a bet. I genuinely like you so if you finally have the decision to agree on a date with me then I'll show you that what you fear is not gonna happen" With that, I glared at him and rushed out of the door with my face flushed and my lips were spread widely a silly smile. *** This is a work of fiction, a story that I made in a whim when I was washing dishes and yes, I wanted the cliche womanizing male lead and awkward female lead so strap your belts for a story that will deviate from what you think the story is!

His strides were long and powerful as he walk towards me. I was stiff on the other hand, my heart thumped loudly against my chest and my hands were fisted on my side. I couldn't even mutter a sentence when his face leaned so close to mine I could feel his breath on my cheeks. "Feng-er" My eyes trembled and my heart skipped a beat. It was just a word, a single word yet it made such a large impact on my system. "Look at me" His fingers grip my chin securely, though it wasn't tight at all, I was unable to take it off. "Wh-what are you d-doing?" A shiver went down my spine when I notice the look on his eyes, it was the same from before. The same look of passion when he kissed me on the street eight years ago. "I admit I had a few girlfriends before and add some weekly romance rumors but remember this. No matter how beautiful a flower is, it won't measure to that one single flower you've cared and nurtured, personally" Then he dive in for a kiss without hearing my response. ... Wu Feng Mian is an uptight middle school teacher. She teaches art and is in a strain relationship with her family. Hao Ming Chen is an actor/singer who rose to popularity six years ago. He was known for his Playboy reputation and was entitled as the heartbreaker prince of the nation. Two separate people with different aspirations and dreams. Two different people with different tastes ranging from clothes to people. Two people who shared a history together and ends it before it could bloom into something. Well, what could go wrong between the Hater and the Player? *** It's fiction people! Also, this is the spin off for Feng Mian and Ming Chen's story. I hope you like it!

To avoid misfortune, she volunteered to take care of him in the Cold Palace. The Sixth Prince, Xie Jue, was cruel, ruthless, and possessed a violent temper. He was suspicious and guarded towards her, constantly mocking and threatening her. But no matter how he treated her, she remained by his side, diligently serving him without complaint. "What do you want?" he asked coldly. Yun Ling gently coaxed, "I only wish for Your Highness's well-being. Your Highness's wishes are also my wishes."

My Husband Is The Sweetest In The World  by dwanpeach

Qi Cunxin was only a fire-tending maid in the Eastern Ling residence. Day after day, she crouched by the smoky stove, her face and hands covered in ash. Life was dull, money was always tight, and the little copper coins she earned never seemed enough. To survive, she secretly worked outside, washing clothes for courtesans at the pleasure house. It was exhausting work, but it gave her a few extra coins to hide away. Then one day, her life changed. In the back courtyard of the flower house, she saw him. A beautiful young man locked in an iron cage. His face was pale, his breath weak, his life hanging by a thread. The madam who had bought him already despised him, calling him useless and a waste of money. Qi Cunxin was sitting on a stool, scrubbing clothes. When she lifted her head, her eyes met his. His gaze was so bright and beautiful that she forgot to breathe. That day, she emptied the little silver she had saved for so long. She bought him, and carried him back to the residence. From then on, he became hers. He was quiet, gentle, always following her like a shadow. He smiled sweetly, clung to her with every step, and looked at her as though she was his entire world. More than that, he was impossibly handsome. Qi Cunxin swore that one day, when she was free, she would marry him. But she never guessed the truth. Xie Miao once thought the most exciting thing in life was watching people's final struggles before death, or stepping on them with power. Until he met her. For the first time, he wanted to pretend: to act pure and flawless, like snow in spring or willows in the wind. At first, it was just a game: to toy with her innocent heart. Yet in the end, the one who was captured... was him. --- ML: Cold and ruthless in public, but in private a spoiled, clingy and obedient. (Obsessed and possessive) FL: Kind and adorable.
