Taming The Villainesses - Chapter 60.2

“Block him.”“He's technically still my boss.”“Then block him with dignity.”The call ended again.And then started again.I let out a sound somewhere between a growl and a sob, then finally answered with the enthusiasm of a snail crawling through salt.“Yes, Mr. Walton?”“Have you changed your mind yet?”I collapsed onto the towel and gazed at the sky as though it might consume me entirely if I pleaded sweetly enough.“Do you ever take a break?” I asked, shielding my eyes with one hand.“You're avoiding the question.”“Because it's a dumb question.”He exhaled, the sound sharp and irritated even over phone. “It's not a dumb question. It's a business offer.”“It's a weird offer-one that I already said no to.”There was a brief pause, and I could practically hear him clenching his jaw through the speaker.“You are acting unreasonably.”“ Unreasonable?” I sat up. “I'm not the one drafting fake girlfriend contracts like it's a normal Tuesday.”“Isabella-”“Certainly not, Mr. Walton.” I mimicked his tone perfectly. “I told you I'm not doing it. You need to find someone else to play pretend with.”SYNOPSISIsabella Miller thought saying no to her boss’s fake dating offer was the end of the story.But Adrien Walton doesn’t take no—especially not when he’s convinced she’s a gold digger.Suddenly, her student loans are piling up, her father’s vet clinic is on the brink of eviction and her brother is about to be kicked out of college.

Of course.Tension that could melt steel?Absolutely.Smut?? Wanna find out?Welcome to corporate romance warfare. There’s no escaping this contract.

From classmates to brother and sister, living under the same roof.

After his father's remarriage, Asamura Yuuta ends up getting a new stepsister, coincidentally the number one beauty of the school year, Ayase Saki. Having learned important values when it comes to man-woman relationships through the previous ones of their parents, they promise each other not to be too close, not to be too opposing, and to merely keep a vague and comfortable distance.

On one hand, Saki, who has worked in solitude for the sake of her family, doesn't know how to properly rely on others, whereas Yuta is unsure of how to really treat her. Standing on fairly equal ground, these two slowly learn the comfortable sensation of living together.

Their relationship slowly evolves from being strangers the more the days pass. Eventually, this could end up in a story about love for all we know.

【Double Life】

Bai Xianyu is a well-known beauty of Da Kui, soft and beautiful, with a natural beauty.

Xie Xingyun is the son of the Hou Mansion, who became famous at a young age and was well-known in Beijing.

The most regretful thing Bai Xianyu did in her previous life was to stalk her and marry Xie Xingyun, but after years of indifference, Xie Xingyun never loved her.

–

Until, the two of them were reborn to discuss marriage.

The eldest brother of the major general holds a spear: “If you want to marry you, let him step over me!”

The second brother of the richest man is coquettish and arrogant: “Apart from being poor, how can this kid compare to your second brother?”

The third brother of the powerful minister sneered sneeringly: “My fifth younger sister is soft-tempered, she must have been deceived by you!”

The fourth brother of Xinke champion Lang Fengshen Junlang: “What’s so good about being married, brother studies and supports you…”

Bai Xianyu returned to his senses in a daze: “Okay… I won’t marry.”

Everyone was overjoyed.

Xie Xingyun stood silently outside the door, condescendingly staring at her smiling face.

–

The news that Bai Xianyu had given up on the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei spread quickly in Beijing, and the son of a family who came to propose marriage broke through the threshold of the General’s Mansion.

Seeing her turn a blind eye to himself.

Seeing her smiling and talking about marriage with others.

Xie Xingyun, who was always cold and respectful, drank wine and went over the wall of the General’s Mansion in the middle of the night, “… You said that you will not marry anyone but me.”

Bai Xianyu bit her lip, “Master Hou, please respect yourself, this is my boudoir.”

“I am your husband.”

Zheng Nianru went from being a Commandery Princess who could be killed at any moment to the position of the Empress Dowager, wielding power over the world. What she couldn't accept was that she didn't end up with a good fate. However, Zheng Nianru thought that no one would have been able to save Nanzheng State.Yet, she was reborn and, having deeply reflected upon her pain, also considered several past mistakes. Firstly, she should not have married down into the family of Ju Nanyi, a man with a narrow mind who came from a minor house, who only thought about romantic affairs and entangled with her in desperate affection, incapable of assisting Nanzheng. Secondly, she should not have killed everyone in Qiandao Temple, which was the spiritual pillar of the people of Nanzheng State. After all, there were better ways, weren't there, like seduction? Thirdly, she should not have been so confident that the monarch of the neighboring country would fall at her feet, nor should she have trusted the promise of that fickle neighboring monarch, which led to years of drawn-out conflict between the two states.Um, Zheng Nianru felt she was not wrong. She just wanted to live well and to be a good Empress Dowager. Since she had the chance to live again, why did she have this chance? Could it be that she was expected to once again turn Nanzheng State upside down?
