Chapter 26 Ice Cream “She’s still young, not suitable for early romance.”…
Boiling Point is the largest entertainment venue in Z City. The first floor is for drinking and dancing. The second floor is for VIP rooms, and the third floor is an open-air bar. It’s suitable for men and women of all ages, and is the first choice for young people and social elites.
This is because the management here is very strict. It’s a proper entertainment venue that doesn’t allow fighting or illegal transactions.
Of course, the consumption in such a place is not low. The minimum spending for anyone entering is four digits. Almost everyone who comes here is not short of money, or they are some people who have connections with rich young people and can come here to broaden their horizons.
As for who the boss behind Boiling Point is, no one knows. Even some companies that want to invest can’t find a way in.
Now they know that the behind-the-scenes boss is actually the Fang Group! The Fang Group that has enough money to buy the entire Z City!
When they learned that the young lady in front of them was the young miss of the Fang Group, the gazes of those around suddenly changed. From watching the show at first, they became intense, as if what was in front of them wasn’t a person but a mountain of gold, all pondering how to get a piece of the pie.
Gao Qiong, who had just learned that Boiling Point belonged to the Fang family, punched her with an “Ah”, “Why didn’t you say earlier? If I had known it was your family’s, we wouldn’t have had to pay every time before. It was such a hassle!”
Fang Chuning rubbed her punched arm, “The key is that I didn’t know either.”
Li Yipeng smiled and explained for the young lady: “It’s normal for the young miss not to remember all the enterprises under the Fang Group, especially since the young miss hasn’t been involved in this aspect yet.”
The man’s serious and gentle explanation instead made Gao Qiong a bit embarrassed, “Big brother, you don’t need to be so serious, I was just joking with her.”
Li Yipeng smiled without speaking, his narrow eyes turning slightly, seemingly casually glancing at the young man hiding behind Fang Chuning, “Young student, long time no see.”
Xu Muzhou’s eyes were calm, his possessive action moving closer to the young lady’s side, soft and polite, “Hello.”
Fang Chuning didn’t know about the little games in their hearts. She noticed that young woman being held by the security guard trying to sneak away, “Hey!”
The woman’s stepping motion froze, her expression forced as she turned back, “Is… there anything else?”
Who would want to offend the Fang family? If she had known earlier that the young lady in front of her was from the Fang family, she would have avoided her. Although her family also had wealth and power, compared to the Fang family, it was still small potatoes. She was self-aware enough to know this.
Thinking the young lady wouldn’t let her off easily, the woman racked her brains trying to figure out what to do, but then heard her say: “Give the phone back to my classmate.”
After returning the phone, the woman quickly disappeared with her follower.
“Here, your phone.” Fang Chuning handed the phone to the young man, “Don’t come to places like this next time.”
Xu Muzhou took the phone, his eyelashes lightly lowering, “I wanted to come find you…”
It seemed that after the confession in the afternoon, the young man no longer concealed his inner feelings.
Fang Chuning pursed her lips, her expression a bit unnatural.
Even though the venue wasn’t right, Gao Qiong could still feel the different atmosphere between the two. She stroked her chin, her inquiring gaze moving back and forth between them.
With the disturbance over, the deafening music started again. Some people returned to the dance floor to continue dancing while others were itching to come forward and chat. Li Yipeng politely stopped a woman dressed as an elite from approaching, and said to the group: “Let’s talk in the private room, it’s noisy here.”
Fang Chuning was quite curious about why the man would appear here, but the next second she felt the thought was unnecessary. It’s normal for people to come here to relax after a day’s work.
They returned to the private room. As soon as they sat down, the boy Gao Qiong brought came over, his eyes bright like a little deer, “So you’re Fang Chuning, I’ve heard your name. A lot of boys in our school talk about you!”
Fang Chuning glanced at Xu Muzhou sitting next to her, “What do they say about me?”
“They say you’re very outstanding, they all consider you their dream girl!”
“Oh,” Fang Chuning didn’t pay much attention, calling for a waiter to bring a glass of fruit juice, “You drink this, I’ll send you back later.”
From the perspective of the student council president, she said this as a matter of course.
Xu Muzhou’s slender, fair fingers extended from his sleeve, lightly touching the juice glass, then retreated back the next second, his movements carrying a hint of cuteness.
“What’s wrong?” Fang Chuning asked.
Xu Muzhou pursed his vermilion lips, his peach blossom eyes still moist from crying earlier, “I don’t drink cold things at night.”
Fang Chuning got him another glass that wasn’t cold.
The deer-eyed boy curiously looked him over, “Little brother, you’re so handsome, even more handsome than the school heartthrob at our school!” He had never seen such a handsome boy before.
The half-drunk Gao Qiong chimed in, “Of course, the vice president is our Xinxing’s one and only school heartthrob, how could your school compare.”
“Vice president…” the boy’s eyes lit up, “You’re Xu Muzhou, right? I’ve heard your name, the girls in our class talk about you all the time. I’ve even seen videos of you playing the piano! You’re so amazing!”
Xu Muzhou held the juice glass with both hands, his peach blossom eyes slowly moving from the young lady’s profile to his face, his eyelashes lowered as he softly said thanks.
In others’ eyes, the young man looked shy and bashful, making it hard to look away.
Soon, Li Yipeng, who had said goodbye to his two good friends early, came to the private room. The first thing he saw when he opened the door was the sight of the young man lowering his eyes and sitting close to the young lady.
His brows furrowed imperceptibly as he walked over, bending down to take the drink that was about to reach the young lady’s lips, “These drinks contain mild alcohol.”
Soon after, Li Yipeng had someone bring a glass of hot milk.
Fang Chuning: ……
Gao Qiong, “……Wow, big brother is so thoughtful!”
The others looked like they wanted to laugh but didn’t dare.
Fang Chuning looked at him with resentful eyes. It was one thing for Hong Jie to watch her at the company, but to give her milk to drink at a bar, was this person doing it on purpose?
Li Yipeng seemed not to notice her dissatisfied gaze, naturally helping her adjust her thin jacket, “It’s too late now, you should go back. Even if there’s no class tomorrow, you shouldn’t play so late.”

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.
