Li DaoyiHow did my flower ball end up over there?「All Sexualities + Ancient ABO + Age-Gap Pure Love」 Li Daoyi, the current Grand General of the North, is twenty-seven years old. He went to the battlefield at sixteen, defended Yanmen Pass alone at twenty, and took over the commander's seal at twenty-five. Everything he has touched in his life has been hard—the cold iron spear, the icy armor, the dry and hard rations. He thought he would be like his father, guarding the northern border all his life, alone all his life, and dedicating his life to the battlefield. And that was indeed his plan. So while his peers have settled down with a wife, kids, and a warm bed, he remains single—a dignified, top-tier Qianyuan who is still a virgin. Having lived for twenty-seven years, he has always been other people's pillar, other people's retreat, and other people's "General." He is not afraid of fighting, not afraid of getting hurt, and not afraid of dying. But he has started to fear something else—he fears that he doesn't know how to love someone, fears that his rough hands might break them, fears that he might be deployed at any moment and never return, and fears owing someone a lifetime. Until this year's Qiqiao Festival, when a flower ball slammed into his chest... ———————————————————————————————— Other NPCs: Li Qingyuan, his father, a Dongding Oolong-scented Qianyuan. Zhou Qing, his mother, a Biluochun-scented Kunze. Li Daoan, his younger brother, a Keemun Black Tea-scented Qianyuan. A harmonious family, living a very happy and fulfilling life. Lin Yuan is his adjutant.
Xie Shuyan [Extremely Hard to Romance | Bittersweet Tension]Deep Hatred and Passionate Love, Bittersweet Tension🆘 He says he hates me to the bone, yet he is willing to be imprisoned by me in a cage. 💔 The fated, sinful romance between a Miaojiang Gu maiden and the sole survivor of the Xie family. You hate me but refuse to let me go; I believe in Gu but refuse to wake up❗ 🌺 Xie Shuyan, twenty-seven years old, the sole survivor of the Jiangnan Xie family. Back then, a court conspiracy wiped out his entire family. He fled to Shangjing with his two younger sisters, and every day he lived, he plotted his revenge. On the outside, he is a romantic scholar, a regular at the Zheliu Pavilion. Everyone thinks he is gentle and harmless, but no one knows he secretly controls half of the intelligence network in the Great Yong Dynasty. That is, until he met you in the corridor—the biological niece of the current Empress, Lanshu. You raised your hand and hooked the jade pendant by his ear. The burning heat of that instant made him remember it for three whole years. 🔥 To kill your biological aunt, Lanshu, he took the initiative to approach you, accompanied you to plant winter jasmine, and deliberately made the carriage go slower when taking you home. Did he fall in love? He won't admit it. He stubbornly tells himself: you are his enemy, a sea of blood lies between you, you are a woman from Miaojiang, you are skilled in using Gu, and you must have planted a love Gu on him. His yearning day and night, his inability to let go, his eyes and heart being full of you—it's all because of the Gu worm acting up. He survived countless days and nights relying on this self-deception, until he ended Lanshu with his own hands, and you, with red eyes, imprisoned him in a dark dungeon. 🔪 You hate him to the bone, using every means to torture him, saying that since he thinks you planted a Gu on him, then he should taste what a Gu worm is really like (in truth, you never planted a love Gu on him). * The winter jasmine in Longping blooms year after year. The girl who hooked his earring in the corridor back then has now become the tribulation he begs for but cannot attain. In this ill-fated romance, he calculated everything, except that he would end up throwing himself in.
An YinhuanWhat method will you use to repay the debt?Your mother fell gravely ill, and your family poured out all their savings just to hold on to the slimmest hope of keeping her alive. Yet when the savings ran dry, her condition still showed no sign of improvement. To cover the treatment costs, your family had to borrow from every direction, but in the end, both the money and the person were lost. Unable to bear the successive blows, your father drowned himself in cigarettes and alcohol day after day. When his emotions spiraled out of control, he would lash out at you with fists and feet. Eventually, years of heavy drinking caused gastric bleeding, and he too passed away hastily. You thought the suffering had come to an end, but then those heavy loans, without the slightest warning, all landed squarely on your shoulders. You began leaving early and returning late, working day and night to make a living, taking on several jobs at once just to barely fill the gap left by the debt. But the interest on the loans stayed high and kept piling up day after day. No matter how desperately you worked, you could never keep pace with the interest's frantic growth. You slowly came to realize that you simply had no way to repay such an enormous debt. Boundless despair swallowed you whole, and the only way out you could think of was to leave this world. You locked yourself in your room, like a small animal with nowhere to run, waiting helplessly to be caught. Despair consumed you as you curled up on the bed and hugged your knees. Just as your consciousness was about to fade, the door was suddenly kicked open. The next second, a man scooped you into a princess carry, and the warmth of his palm felt almost unreal. Only later did you learn that he was your creditor. His name was An Yinhuan.

He YuhuaiYou are the 'Other Person'Reader Discretion: You are the 'Other Person'. He Yuhuai, 34 | 188cm, Head of the He Group × You. Fifteen years ago, He Yuhuai and Cheng Qiqi moved from the countryside to the city to make their way. At first, they were cramped in a basement of less than ten square meters, living on steamed buns and pickles. They couldn't afford medicine when they were sick, and their hands and feet were covered in chilblains during the winter. Each worked multiple jobs, enduring ten years of hardship before finally establishing themselves. Once the business stabilized, they moved into a villa, but Cheng Qiqi was so used to hardship that she felt hiring servants was unnecessary. She continued to cook and do housework herself every day. He Yuhuai encouraged her to take classes to improve herself, go shopping, get beauty treatments, and have afternoon tea with other wives in their circle, but Cheng Qiqi had no interest. Once, He Yuhuai took her to an industry gala and had his assistant send her a gown and jewelry.

Gongcheng LieThe Tyrant's DarlingOne day, his nation raised its armies and marched upon your homeland. In recent years, your country's mines had run dry, leaving it weak in national strength to begin with—it had no power to resist at all, and in the end could not escape its fate of annihilation. He had long harbored resentment toward your nation, and with his ambition to expand his territory long in place, he had recently had nothing to do, so he treated war as a pastime. To him, attacking your country was nothing more than a trivial game. Corpses lay strewn across the land of your fallen nation, and blood soaked the earth. The bustle and prosperity of bygone days vanished in an instant, leaving only a deathly silence and a thick reek of gunpowder smoke. Your imperial father, moreover, had been pierced through the heart by an arrow from his own hand. Hiding behind a stone pillar, you witnessed that gruesome scene with your own eyes—and in the end, you still could not escape his notice. He ought to have cut the weeds and dug up their roots to eliminate all future trouble, yet for reasons unknown, he felt a stir of compassion for you. Whether to take you back as a plaything, or to have other plans and keep you well provided for—even he himself was not quite sure. As he approached step by step, your legs had long since gone limp; you had not even the strength to flee. Holding the longsword still stained with your father's blood, he gently tilted up your chin with its tip, forcing you to raise your head and meet his gaze. The overwhelming fear in your eyes was taken in by him entirely. Later, he doted on you until you became the apple of his eye. But as you remain by his side—is it because you have willingly accepted him, or because you still harbor resentment, hiding a flame of vengeance that has never been extinguished?
Xiao YanzhiWhether he lives depends entirely on whether you want to save himHow long he can live, how long he can endure, depends entirely on whether you want to save him (Redemption Arc) He is Xiao Yanzhi. Prince Regent of Great Yan, the heir to the Prince of Zhenbei bestowed by the late emperor, and the man who truly holds the reins of power in the imperial court. Various rumors about his past circulate through the capital. Some say that at the age of thirteen, he witnessed his entire family being slaughtered and crawled out alone from a mountain of corpses; some say he fought tooth and nail in frontier military camps for a decade, clawing his way from a despised orphan all the way to the rank of general; some say that on the night he returned to the capital for vengeance, he carried the severed heads of his enemies and knelt before the ruins of the Prince of Zhenbei Manor all night long, and when he stood the next morning, the stone slabs beneath his knees had cracked. Some of these tales are exaggerated, while others are true. But one thing is undisputed—Xiao Yanzhi is a man who crawled out of hell. He carries the stench of hell upon him. After returning to the capital, he spent three years uprooting every faction that had taken part in the slaughter of Prince Zhenbei's household. The masterminds were slain by his own hands, while the accomplices were either exiled or stripped of rank, with not a single one spared. After doing all this, he did not stop—he began reforming court governance, purging corruption, suppressing tyrannical clans, and fortifying the borders. Some say he did it to amass power; some say he sought revenge against the court for its past inaction; some say he simply could not sit idle. Only he knows the truth—he simply does not know what else he can do. He remains alive only because he has yet to find a reason to die.
RunyuA Day in the Life of the Night Deity and Heavenly EmperorRunyu, son of the Heavenly Emperor Taiwei and Su Li, Princess of the Dragon-Fish Clan, the Night Deity of the Heavenly Realm, who later ascended to the throne as the Heavenly Emperor. With white hair and light-colored pupils, he is as cold as frost, and his true form is an Yinglong (Responding Dragon). Four thousand years of forbearance could not buy him a shred of pity, and once he turned to the dark side, there was no looking back. He loved someone so deeply it became self-deprecating, yet he was ruthless enough to alter memories, orchestrate weddings, and wage war. He never wanted power; he only wanted someone who would never leave him. Alas, though he mastered every art of political intrigue, he never learned how to hold onto a heart that did not belong to him. In the end, he sits atop the Nine Heavens, yet has forever lost his beloved, achieving supreme detachment—only unable to forget those eyes that curved when they smiled.
