Mr. Zhao’s Two-sided Beauty

The_Viscountess_
In the elite world of Chinese ancient history and culture, Tang Lin sits firmly in her place as “The Eagle Eye” – T City's most sought-after artifact appraiser. But behind her spotless reputation as an uncompromising professional lies a carefully guarded secret: she shares her body with Tang Mei, a mysterious and famous oil painter. This situation was born from childhood trauma when she witnessed her parents gruesomely murdered over some ancient artifacts. Her meticulously controlled existence hits a snag when Zhao Jun, heir to a powerful Beijing empire, arrives T-City requesting her authentication of a jade fragment bearing some strange and archaic engravings. The artifact triggers long forgotten memories and violent personality shifts beyond her control. After a break-in targeting the jade and possibly her, Tang Lin reluctantly accepts Zhao Jun’s offer of protection. As they uncover the connection of the whole jade to both their families, professional boundaries fade into unplanned attraction. Caught in the midst of this unrelenting storm, Tang Lin must solve the mystery of her parents’ deaths, figure out her forbidden feelings for Zhao Jun and solve the problem with the evil forces threatening everything she’s worked and lived for.

Ascending Pride

What happens when a dragon gets sacrificed by his mate for his blessings? Blame the bird. What happens when a fish wants to rule the skies? Drag the bird down. What happens when a fox wants revenge? Seek out the bird. What happens when humans are lied to for generations? Coarse the bird. What does any of that have to do with the bird who most have never even met? How do they subdue a being that not even beast gods were able to defeat? How do they force a bird to stop flying? How do they kill a being... that cannot be killed? ... They break his heart... over, and over, and over. It's been over a thousand years since the beast god sealed itself away to heal from it's injuries. 700 years since the dragon was sacrificed. 600 years since a feathered snake started accepting human "wives". Almost 500 years since his heart was shattered. 300 years since history was rewritten. 200 years since the fish sent out a call. 50 years since the fox was tricked. 20 years since he gave his broken heart to a young warrior. 10 years since he was once again betrayed. 2 years since the bird found himself in a new body with only a fraction of his memories. Now, the most precious piece of his heart must either return, or bond with another. Now, the blessings from the sacrificed dragon have become a curse. Now, a young warrior has become leader of her people. Now, three nations are on the verge of extinction. Now, a snake wants his covenant honored. Now, a bird shakes his head as watches with a sigh. So few will live, while so many will die.
