Chapter 2: I’m Hungry… Obediently Lying in Her Arms, Not at All…
When Meng Huan heard the young servant delivering food at noon, he stood by the window and shouted that he wanted to see Wen Zhaoyin. After pestering for two days in a row, he still couldn’t get anyone to come.
Eating a single type of food for a long time can lead to a lack of other essential nutrients. He felt that he was lacking in everything, and his blood pressure was so low that it was even difficult to stand up.
Now, after starving for four consecutive days, he really didn’t even have the strength to shout. Could it be that he had transmigrated here just to be secretly killed by a treacherous servant?
“Madam, please come in.”
“Where is Wang Fu? Quickly go and have him bring the key to open the door.”
Meng Huan weakly raised his head. At first, he thought he was hallucinating, but after regaining clarity, he realized there were indeed people talking outside.
He arduously got out of the quilt and, supporting himself on the edge of the bed, slowly moved outward, wanting to get down and see the situation. His turning point had finally come. If he couldn’t seize it this time, he would really die.
Outside the door.
Wen Zhaoyin quietly waited for Wang Fu to come and open the door, feeling that something was slightly off in her heart. The guard she had arranged at the entrance of the courtyard was not there, and the attending servant was also absent.
A few days ago, she had gotten a little crazy after getting drunk and had been rough with Meng Huan, even forcing him. The next day, when she sobered up in the study, she felt bad about it and wanted to come see him at that time. However, due to official duties that needed to be handled, it was delayed until today.
It was also embarrassing to say, but she was usually very able to control herself. Before meeting him, there were almost no instances of her losing her rationality. Perhaps it was because he looked too much like that person…
Wang Fu arrived slowly, his expression not revealing anything amiss. Wen Zhaoyin didn’t ask him about the courtyard matter and used her eyes to signal him to open the door.
Wang Fu took out a bunch of keys. When opening the door, his hands were trembling, and he tried the wrong key twice before unlocking it.
He had originally thought that the madam had tormented Meng Huan so badly four days ago because she didn’t treat him as a person at all, only as a plaything. If she truly cared, she wouldn’t have been so unaware of the severity.
Thinking of the many official documents that had been sent in the morning, he had guessed that the madam would not come to the courtyard for the next few days. So he had felt very reassured in using a bit of his authority to deal with Meng Huan.
He didn’t really intend to starve Meng Huan to death. He only wanted to have him apologize after a couple of days and kowtow a few times to settle the matter. At that time, he would threaten him a bit, and Meng Huan probably wouldn’t dare to say anything.
But who would have thought that despite all precautions, the madam would come at this time!
“You… please come in…”
Wen Zhaoyin glanced at him. Her gaze was as calm as water, but it made Wang Fu feel chilled to the bone.
He was so nervous that his mouth and tongue felt dry. He thought that if Meng Huan complained first, there would be no good outcome. He turned around and quietly withdrew to find someone for help.
On this side, as soon as Wen Zhaoyin entered the door, she saw Meng Huan wearing a robe and trying to get out of bed. When he raised his head, his eyes met hers. For some reason, he lost his balance and fell to the floor.
It’s over, it’s over. That night must have scared him.
She once again reproached herself, then quickly walked over to help him up. She didn’t mind the dirt and raised her hand to gently brush off the dust from his body.
Today, Meng Huan seemed much more obedient than before. Not only did he not scold her, but after being helped up, he also obediently lay in her arms, without any of the previous rejection.
Looking at this face, coupled with his obedience, Wen Zhaoyin’s heart almost melted into water. Her guilt for what she had done four days ago grew even stronger.
“Did you get hurt from the fall? Are you injured anywhere?”
She was originally a talented and romantic woman. Now at the prime of her life, with both talent and beauty, and a smooth official career, if outsiders saw her lowering her head and asking such questions, even the threshold of the Wen family’s door, which was a foot high, would be flattened by men wanting to become her concubine.
However, the person hearing these words did not indulge in it. Instead, he blinked his eyes and said in a low voice, “I’m hungry…”
——
Main courtyard, east wing.
“Eat slower.”
Wen Zhaoyin saw that he was eating urgently and didn’t even listen to her reminder. She directly took away the porridge bowl.
“The doctor just said that you can’t binge eat now. You need to eat less but more frequently. Eating this fast will make you throw up.”

If you’re like me…
Too tired of reading stories where the female lead is often foolish, weak, feeble both physically and mentally, usually in a subservient and oppressed role in society such as a maid, secretary, concubine… or to put it bluntly, typically the one who has to serve and please the male lead, always needing protection and rescue from male leads, while the male lead is often described as talented, strikingly handsome, powerful,…
Then please continue reading.
Hi there, girls!
I’m Yuushi L.
Every day, movies and comics continuously reinforce the notion that women are weak, that they can only handle trivial matters in the background, that women are petty-minded and constantly jealous, mocking, and laughing at other women, while men are strong, wealthy, and solely focused on conquering the world, with countless mindless women ready to fall into their arms.
Believe me, once you read Female-dominant (FEDO) novels, your mindset will change significantly.
I am deeply inspired by strong, independent, and rational women who have the power to take control of their lives, and I am fascinated by the way society’s gender roles are reversed in this genre compared to real life.
So I have created this web with the noble purpose of promoting the “Female-dominant (FEDO)” genre of novels.
In my country, there was a rare renowned female poet in ancient times who wrote the following about the fate of women in that era:
“Damn this life of sharing a husband,
One wrapped in warmth, the other left cold.
I’d rather have stayed single from the start,
Than to endure a life so torn apart.”
Perhaps my penchant for reading female-dominant stories is partly a way of rebelling against the realities of life.
On my site, there will be stories that are not only female-dominant novels, as long as they align with my taste, featuring strong female protagonists and fresh, captivating storylines. Usually, they will be modern or fantasy novels.
I rarely read ancient novels that aren’t female-dominant because they often contain details that easily trigger me. These include the portrayal of men having multiple wives and concubines, which was considered utterly normal in ancient society, and the frequent disdain towards women.
I cannot change the world, as the societal structure that discriminates against women and elevates men has existed for thousands of years. Changing it to truly give women an equal role in society is not something that can happen overnight. If you want gender equality now, it’s laughable. It will never happen when over 90% of national and business leaders are men.
But I can start by changing the mindset of women, sisters, and young girls. Don’t just read dull slogans urging women to be strong and independent; it’s hard to imagine. Read Female-dominant (FEDO) novels to see clearly what true female empowerment looks like.
I believe there will be more and more independent and strong women who prioritize their careers and personal stability over seeking a man to rely on.
In the future, there will be more successful female entrepreneurs, politicians, and thought leaders.
As for me, I will start by making this website grow stronger day by day.
I especially like the concept of “the male lead falls in love first, the female lead is the cold-hearted and rational one, and the male lead suffers because the female lead doesn’t reciprocate his feelings.”
Therefore, you’ll see that most of the novels on my website will belong to this trope. Of course, there will be exceptions.
In the future, I also plan to write my own novels following this concept, where the female lead in my stories will never be the weaker party. I hope I can do it soon.
The novels I highly recommend will be listed under the category:
There will be exceptionally brilliant stories, but there will also be mediocre ones. As the Female-dominant (FEDO) genre has fewer authors and readers, the number of high-quality novels is limited.
Therefore, I want to promote this genre to reach a wider audience, which will encourage more talented authors to choose to write in this style, leading to the birth of more outstanding Female-dominant (FEDO) novels.
The Chinese versions of the novels I use for translation are all sourced from various websites on the internet. You know, I don’t have much budget to purchase so many novels.
Therefore, if your financial situation allows, please support the authors by purchasing the original works. You can find the original works using the Chinese titles of the novels.

WARNING:
In some novels, there are certain unhealthy ideologies and illegal actions held by the main characters (for example, treating human lives as worthless, or casually deciding to kill someone, forcing others to do things they don’t want to do, arbitrarily imprisoning others, plotting to harm others, using violence to retaliate against violence,…).
This may be because the authors are still young and inexperienced, unaware that what they’re writing goes beyond moral standards and can negatively influence young readers.
It’s important that readers under 18 years old need to recognize these are illegal actions, not permitted to be carried out in real life, always keep a clear head while reading, treat these works only as entertainment, and don’t let yourself be influenced by those plot points.
