The Overnight Chosen Wife: darling, kiss me deeper
"Little troubleshooter, we meet again. If you are still thinking of trying to get away, you better give up that silly idea." Ji Xiehan said, pinning her against the wall. Li Lanni pushed her fists against his chest. "Is this how you say ‘Hi’ to all your interviewers, Mr. Ji?" "There is no interviewer and certainly no interviewee." The man grinned devilishly. "There is only a husband and a wife. My darling, how are you going to compensate for all the emotional damage you caused me by slipping away?" "What?" Heavens... just what had she gotten herself into? ….. Her life almost came to an end because of a tragic accident but instead, she lost her memory. Who would have thought that just when she was starting to get used to her new life, she would get trapped in a whirlwind engagement? Out of all kinds of injustice fate could do to her, why did her fiancé have to be that white-haired pervert?! "You better not fall in love with me!" she snarled at the man grinning before her. Ji Xiehan's smile deepened. "Are you... kidding me? Why would I fall in love with you?" Li Lanni: "You better mark your words." The man grinned and helplessly shook his head, how could he fall in love with the woman he was already in love with? Taking up the challenge to crawl into her heart, Ji Xiehan promised himself to always treat her well and love her. (Warning: This book features mature content) ...

Messed up life
Once the call ended, Xia Luna sat on her bed and placed the phone back on the bedside table.
From the phone call they had just had, she knew that Li Lanni was starting to trust her. Or maybe she almost fully trusted her.
But instead of happiness, her face was filled with sadness... a lonely kind of sadness.
Actually, she hadn't known Li Lanni for very long. She had grown up only knowing that she had a father and a stepmother. No one ever mentioned her mother, and like the good girl she was, she never asked.
It only happened about two years ago. Her father, Xia Hanchen, had suddenly been screened with a heart tumor. His health had deteriorated so rapidly that in a few months, he was almost just a walking shell. The doctors didn't think he would make it past a year. He would talk to no one and just keep staring into space in a daze.
