#Female Protagonist #Ancient China #Marriage

On the day Shaoyin returned to the capital after being widowed, nearly everyone in the capital believed she had come back for the current emperor, Xiao Heng. Everyone knew that Xue Shaoyin, the Empress's niece, had been infatuated with her maternal cousin, Crown Prince Xiao Heng, since childhood. They also knew that while she loved him, he had never returned her feelings. It was said that when the Crown Prince reached marriageable age, he personally removed Xue Shaoyin's name from the list of marriage candidates. Shaoyin threw a fit over it, ultimately enraging Emperor Chengzong, who ordered her to marry into a distant land and sent the clingy nuisance away for his son. Five years later, the Crown Prince Xiao Heng had already been enthroned for several years, while Xue Shaoyin, who had been married off far away, had become a widow. When she returned to her homeland after her husband's death, everyone assumed she would continue pestering Xiao Heng as she had in the past. The noble ladies competing for the position of Empress also regarded her as a formidable threat. Yet almost no one knew that Shaoyin had been the one to request the distant marriage. By the time Xiao Heng personally crossed out her name in front of her, there had not been even the slightest place for him left in her heart. Now, her heart belonged only to her late husband. In truth, it was the emperor secluded deep within the palace who had finally come to his senses and regretted everything night after night. Emperor Xiao Heng believed that Shaoyin's return could restore everything to the way it had been, never realizing that she already had an eternal white moonlight in her heart. Even as the Son of Heaven, there were things beyond his reach. In this world, no one could ever defeat a dead man in love. [The emperor grovels after losing his wife; the male lead's harem is merely for show, while the female lead's marriage to her late husband was a real marriage.]

#Childhood Friends #College/University #Comedic Undertone

Radiant Good Girl vs. Cold and Wild Scoundrel [University Campus / Sweet / Pure Love / Childhood Friends / Ambiguous Tension] He Zongye, born into the top echelons of Jingbei's elite, did as he pleased, relying on his peak looks and physique. Cold and rebellious, he was a legendary figure at Jing University. Only Shen Jinyao knew that this guy was nothing but a bastard and a rogue! Shen Jinyao, as noble and radiant as a swan, was the renowned goddess of classical dance at Jing University. However, she had a long-standing arch-nemesis. Everyone in their social circle knew that Shen Jinyao and He Zongye had been at odds since childhood. They bickered whenever they met; the sweet "little cake" was constantly driven to fury by that wicked scoundrel. Whenever the two appeared at the same time, everyone instinctively kept a safe distance from them, though it rarely did any good. A friend once teased, "Are you two magnets? You attract each other the moment you meet." Shen Jinyao sneered, "Magnets with knives, maybe." He Zongye’s cold eyes carried a reckless smile as he teased her like he always did. "Babe, you love me that much? You want to be permanently embedded with me?" "For. Ever. And. Ev. Er." - No one could have imagined that, in secret, He Zongye would be coaxing the girl into kissing him. "Babe, kiss me, and we'll be even." Suddenly snapping back to reality, Shen Jinyao tried to flee, only to have her waist firmly gripped, holding them inseparable. Her body trembled as she broke into a sob. He Zongye wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with his thumb. His voice was low and seductive, like a male demon: "Babe, why do you cry every time I kiss you?" - Upon learning she was preparing for an arranged marriage, He Zongye, exuding a chilling aura, stood outside her room all night. Gripping the door handle with sharp intensity, he said: "If it’s going to be an arranged marriage anyway, choose me."

After years of marriage, Cui Lingrong had always believed herself to be happy. Her husband was respectful, she had a son and a daughter, and the household accounts were firmly in her hands. She had once thought that Song Shulan was merely devoted to his official career and indifferent to romance, but that his heart was always in tune with hers. It was not until she returned home from mourning that she discovered Song Shulan had already taken an Equal Wife. Her mother-in-law said, "You should be magnanimous." Song Shulan said, "It was necessary for my career." She lowered her eyes and swallowed all her bitterness into silence. But on a rainy night, she learned that this Equal Wife was the moonlight of Song Shulan's youth that he could never attain—and that she herself was merely a fitting ornament placed at the right moment in his life. So, in the year she was conferred the Noblewoman Title, Cui Lingrong proposed a Mutual Divorce. ~Song Shulan had never imagined that his proper, rule-abiding first wife would reveal such an expression in another man's arms—her cheeks flushed, her eyes shimmering with allure, a vivacity and charm he had never seen before. He lost control and stepped forward to confront her, only to see her calmly gather her collar, the loose neckline revealing glaring marks. "Song Daren," her voice was light and cold, "you and I are already strangers. What right do you have to question me?"

The high school classmate she'd had a secret crush on, ahhhhhhh!! - Xie Zeyan: school heartthrob, top of his grade, student council president, sole heir to the Xie Group — a legendary figure at Jingjia No.1 High School back in the day. Countless admirers surrounded him, yet none caught his eye. As one of his many secret admirers, Nan Shu knew she and Xie Zeyan were from completely different worlds, so she buried this feeling silently in her heart. Who would've thought that a few years later, the golden boy of their generation would be reduced to walking dogs for money? Nan Shu hesitated before voicing her confusion: "Doesn't your family own a company? How come..." Xie Zeyan lifted his brows lightly, perfectly at ease: "Oh, the family fell on hard times. Went bankrupt." - After their reunion, Xie Zeyan was kicked out by his unscrupulous landlord. Nan Shu steeled herself and asked him: "Do you want to be my roommate?" The man's tone carried a hint of pleased triumph: "Can I move in tonight?" After Xie Zeyan moved in, he not only took over the dog-walking duties but also completely shed his former aloof image, becoming gentle and considerate. But the more Nan Shu looked, the more something felt off. Why did the CEO of a business empire on the cover of a finance magazine look exactly like Xie Zeyan?

[Double Rebirth + Level-headed Female Lead + Second Male Lead Protagonist + Ability to Understand Animals + Scumbag Chasing Wife Crematorium + Beauty Disguised as Ugly] Jia Qingcheng was a world-renowned ugly woman. In her past life, she married into the Pei residence. Her husband, Pei Wuliang, treated her with single-minded devotion, never once minding her coarse appearance. To repay his affection, she used her dowry and connections to pave a bright future for him, helping him rise through the ranks to a position of great power. Before she died, they held hands tightly and promised to continue their bond as husband and wife in the next life. Yet, when she opened her eyes, she had been reborn back at the Spring Banquet. She discovered that her "loving" husband had long since abandoned their past-life promise. He reneged on their marriage to seek the hand of his cousin instead. Not only that, he even forced her to marry the dying Prince Chu to become a widow-in-waiting. Her former husband gave all the love and devotion he once showed her to his cousin. Because the cousin liked lotuses, he emptied an entire pond to personally plant lotus seeds for her. Because the cousin feared the dark, he spent a fortune to buy South Sea Night Pearls to illuminate her nights. It turned out that the kindness and love she believed in during her past life were nothing more than a joke in the end. With a cold sneer, she discarded the scumbag husband and took the initiative to request marriage to Prince Chu: "I would rather guard a prince’s lonely grave than marry a heartless man!" Everyone waited to see her become a laughingstock, wondering how the capital's ugliest woman would maintain her chastity for the sake of Prince Chu. But to their surprise, Prince Chu did not die, and she shed her ugly facade to reveal a peerless beauty. The couple lived in harmony, becoming the envy of all. In contrast, the Pei family fell into chaos, their career prospects were ruined, and the scumbag husband, consumed by regret, knelt at her door to beg for a reconciliation. "Qingcheng, I regret everything. Can you come back to me?" Prince Chu remained expressionless. "Get lost. If you dare harass my beloved consort again, I will execute your entire clan!"
