date setting of the sand pebbles novel

Tricked by a soothsaying mother, during the ghost year, ghost month, ghost day, and the wide-open Ghost Gate, I sneaked into the deep mountains with a Zhang Family heirloom, the Star Stealing Life-changing Talisman.

Her husband, Silas Sinclair, is super handsome but always has a cold face and dislikes her in various ways. Silas Sinclair’s daily thoughts: Woman, you’re getting close to me just for money, right? Hmph, she must have impure motives for doing this! Ashley Sutton, we’re just in a sham marriage. At first, Ashley always thought her husband was just a handsome but cocky salesman.

Xue Xi ist gezwungen, sich bei ihrer ersten Begegnung auf den ersten Blick in diesen gefährlichen Mann zu verlieben. Da der Tod die einzige andere Option ist, macht sie den ersten Schritt: "Ich bin reich und ich kann kämpfen." "Sei mein Freund und ich beschütze dich." Von da an verbreitet sich langsam die Nachricht, dass die älteste Tochter der Familie Xue und beste Studentin einen Gigolo hält. Leider ist sie jemand, der die Menschen, die sie ihr eigen nennt, mit aller Kraft beschützt, bis zu jenem schicksalhaften Tag, an dem sie den Mann hinter sich vor den vermeintlichen Hooligans schützt und kalt verkündet: "Mein Freund ist schüchtern, also kommt lieber zu mir, wenn ihr ein Problem habt." Die Hooligans blicken ängstlich in Richtung eines gewissen Big Bosses, der beschützt wird. Der berüchtigte "Black Yama" hat also tatsächlich ein solches Hobby?

Xue Xi is forced to fall in love at first sight with this dangerous man on their first meeting. With death being the only other option, she makes the first move: “I am rich and I can fight.” “Be my boyfriend and I’ll protect you.” From then on, news of the Xue family’s eldest daughter and number one student keeping a gigolo slowly gets out. Alas, she is someone who protects people she calls her own fiercely, until that fateful day—shielding the man behind her from the supposed-hooligans, she proclaims coldly: “My boyfriend is timid, so come at me if you have any issues instead.” The hooligans shivers in fear as they look toward a certain big boss who is being protected. So the infamous “Black Yama” actually has this kind of hobby?

Dahil ang kamatayan ang tanging iba pang pagpipilian, siya ang unang gumawa ng hakbang: "Mayaman ako at marunong akong lumaban." "Maging kasintahan ko at poprotektahan kita." Mula noon, unti-unting kumakalat ang balita tungkol sa panganay na anak ng Pamilyang Xue at number one na estudyante na nagpapanatili ng isang gigolo. Sayang, siya ay isang taong matinding nagpoprotekta sa mga taong tinatawag niyang kanya, hanggang sa takdang araw na iyon—habang pinoprotektahan ang lalaki sa likuran niya mula sa mga itinuturing na hooligans, siya ay malamig na nagpahayag: "Ang kasintahan ko ay mahiyain, kaya lumapit kayo sa akin kung may problema kayo." Nanginig sa takot ang mga hooligans habang tumingin sila sa isang partikular na big boss na pinoprotektahan. Kaya ang kilalang "Itim na Yama" ay may ganitong uri ng libangan?
