Synopsis

As a fiery young shrew, Xu Weilai was confident that no one would be able to resist her charms. However, time and again, she was thwarted by Gu Yu. Not only had he not taken responsibility for her, he had also dissolved his betrothal to her, causing her to be a laughingstock. Three years later, she did her best to stay as far away from him as possible. But how…? She’d met him by chance at a banquet. She’d met him by chance at dinner. She’d even met him by chance while on the way to the washroom! This had to be a curse! Finally, the heartless Gu Yu coldly warned, “If you appear before me again, I won’t let you off!” Xu Weilai was so frightened that she booked the next flight out of the country! But who could have predicted that the man she was seated beside… was none other than he again! Oh no! Her life was flashing before her eyes!

Chapter 1Breaking off the Engagement

After a passionate, steamy night, Xu Weilai felt the man beside her rise from the bed and enter the bathroom. She lay sprawled across the bed, exhausted and unmoving.

The sound of water flowing could be heard coming from the bathroom. Xu Weilai forced her eyes open and glanced at the clothes scattered all around the floor. The fresh memory of the night's activities surfaced in her mind, and she instinctively clutched the blanket as her cheeks blushed crimson.

She and Gu Yu…

Since they were young, both of them had been betrothed to each other by their respective families. However, Gu Yu hadn't harbored much interest in this betrothal. He had been indifferent to her, and she could never guess what he was thinking.

It was only after he had met with a car accident, and she had stayed by his side for three months to take care of him, that his attitude toward her had improved tremendously.

They had been together for a while, and now that they had consummated their relationship, he was going to take responsibility and marry her, wasn't he?

She couldn't help but quiver in excitement at that very thought, and her eyes twinkled brightly.

As she was lost in her thoughts, the door to the bathroom suddenly opened. The man walked out leisurely. Xu Weilai looked over. He had tied a towel around his hips, revealing his sexy, sculpted chest. His body was still covered in water droplets, and he looked mesmerizing.

Even though they had already been intimate, Xu Weilai still couldn't help but lower her eyes.

Gu Yu's handsome face carried an air of frostiness. His eyes looked dark and cold. As he strode past her, he did not spare her a single glance. He loosened his towel and put on his clothes unhurriedly.

Xu Weilai tightened her fist around the blanket. She took in a deep breath and considered her next words carefully before gently saying, "Gu Yu, we…"

Xu Weilai voiced out a few words, but she was too shy to finish the statement. However, Gu Yu didn't seem like he was about to say anything to fill the void. She stopped for a short moment before steeling herself and continuing, "Since we've already done it, don't you think…"

Gu Yu did the last button on his suit before turning around. He lifted his eyebrows and rested his eyes on her. Xu Weilai instinctively stopped talking.

His expression didn't betray his emotions, and the look in his eyes was candid. However, Xu Weilai could feel an indescribable and imposing aura emanating from him, and it made her feel very unsettled.

Gu Yu's eyes slowly raked through Xu Weilai's exceptionally beautiful face. When he saw that she was beginning to panic, the corners of his lips slowly lifted, and he replied, "Done it? Done what?"

Xu Weilai froze in shock.

What was that supposed to mean? They had just consummated their relationship. Wasn't he supposed to follow the script and marry her now?

Gu Yu saw the blank look in her eyes, and his lips twitched. As it dawned on him what she was asking, he sarcastically and crudely retorted, "You voluntarily threw yourself into my arms and gave me your virginity. And now you're telling me that you want me to take responsibility for you?"

The sound of his voice was so pleasant to Xu Weilai's ears. But the words that he just uttered chilled her to her bone. The blood drained from her face, and her hands trembled.

Although she had indeed initiated the first move and kissed him under the influence of alcohol, he hadn't rejected her advances. In fact, he had taken it one step further and pinned her beneath his body… Everything had been fine. Why did he suddenly become so cold? Why was he saying such cruel things? Had she done something wrong?

Gu Yu sneered and took two steps up to her. His long and slender fingers tilted her chin up, and his eyes narrowed. He stared into her ashen face before declaring chillingly, "I will give you an answer."

-

Xu Weilai waited an entire week for that answer. It came through Gu Yu's phone call. No… actually, it came through his assistant's phone call.

The assistant succinctly relayed Gu Yu's intentions; he wanted to break off the engagement!

Rebirth: Pampered by My Children and Husband

After Lin Xu died, she discovered that the world she was in was a novel. Her eldest son liked to imprison the female protagonist of the novel, engaging in sinister villainous acts with a dark room play.

The family was blissfully happy. Latter, the revived, amnesiac husband suddenly appeared, cornering her against the wall, his eyes full of struggle, “Even if you're married, I still love you.” Lin Xu pretended to be serious, “Is that so, then what should we do?” He hugged her tightly, his voice muffled and pained, “Divorce him!” Lin Xu chuckled secretly, “I’ll divorce him right away.” Latter, after the husband regained his memory, he said through gritted teeth, “Over my dead body will we divorce!”

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?
