Chapter 71: Love Song Unexpectedly Became the Most Popular Topic on the Internet…
Fang Chuning was completely unaware of the outside world’s tumultuous discussions.
At this moment, she had just disembarked from a private plane and walked out of the private airport, completely unaware that a group of people were waiting for her at Z City’s largest airport.
The airport manager followed beside her, bowing and scraping, “Miss Fang, would you like to rest for a while after getting off the plane? We have a special lounge prepared for you.”
Fang Chuning had long legs and walked quickly, so the manager had to jog to keep up with her.
She carefully observed the woman’s expression. This wasn’t the first time she had seen the rumored Fang family heiress. The last time they met was five years ago when the woman was still a vibrant, confident, cheerful, and fun-loving girl. Five years had passed, and that youthful face had matured. Her side-parted, inward-curling bob haircut that didn’t reach her shoulders was neat and tidy. The confidence between her brows was even more pronounced, exuding calmness and elegance. Every part of her radiated reliability.
It had to be said that in terms of appearance, this woman had the assets to fascinate men.
No wonder those young people on the internet were so agitated.
“No need.”
The concise female voice brought the manager back to her senses. She instinctively wanted to say a few more flattering words, but the person had already gotten into a Maybach. The manager could only maintain her smile, step back, and watch the luxury car drive away until it disappeared from sight.
She breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a tissue to wipe the sweat on the back of her neck caused by nervousness, and turned to walk back.
Inside the car, the driver secretly glanced at the rearview mirror. She had just started working and was extremely curious about the big boss’s daughter, but didn’t dare to look too much, afraid of being caught. She only stole a quick glance before averting her gaze.
Beautiful music filled the car, a melancholic and melodious voice penetrated the ears like feathers, unconsciously relaxing one’s mood and immersing them in the melody.
Sitting in the back seat, Fang Chuning’s gaze moved away from her laptop. When working, she was used to silence; even a little noise was a disturbance to her. This was something everyone around Fang Chuning had known for the past five years.
Obviously, the new driver wasn’t aware of this.
Fang Chuning wanted to remind her to turn off the music, but when she heard the general meaning of the lyrics, she paused.
Where are you
I am searching
Unwilling to give up
My love
My life
…
It was like a love song expressing feelings, yet it carried resentment, heart-wrenching grief that involuntarily made one shed tears along with the melody.
“It sounds good,” was Fang Chuning’s evaluation after listening.
She rarely listened to music abroad, and when she did, it was usually some jazz. Fang Chuning was curious, “What song is this?”
Whether it was an illusion or not, the singing voice seemed somewhat familiar.
The driver didn’t expect her to make conversation and instantly perked up, “This is the hottest song of the year. Haven’t you heard it, Miss? I heard it’s also very popular abroad.”
“Is that so? What’s the name of the song?”
“The song is called ‘Ning’, just one character. I don’t understand what he’s singing, but I think the name is too simple. For such a good song, it should be…”
Once the driver started talking, she couldn’t control her chatty nature. It wasn’t until she realized the person in the back hadn’t responded that she belatedly closed her mouth, her eyes quickly glancing at the rearview mirror.
The young woman sat quietly in the back seat, a laptop placed in front of her. The light reflected from the computer barely illuminated her beautiful, fair chin, while her eyes were submerged in shadows, making her expression unclear.
The driver swallowed and wondered if she had said something to upset her.
Just as she was feeling nervous, a neutral voice came from behind: “What’s the name of the person singing this song?”
The driver couldn’t gauge her mood and nervously answered truthfully: “Everyone calls him ‘prince’, but it seems no one knows his real name.”
Fang Chuning nodded slightly without saying anything more, her gaze returning to the stock market trends.
After an unknown amount of time, the scenery outside the car changed from the remote suburbs to bustling, prosperous streets. Fang Chuning rubbed her slightly sore eyes and put the laptop aside, preparing to take a short nap.
Just as she closed her eyes, the phone placed beside her rang.
Fang Chuning picked up the phone, saw the name on the caller ID, and frowned imperceptibly. After a moment’s hesitation, she still answered the call.
“Are you home yet? Why haven’t you called me? Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for your call? When you see missed calls, don’t you know to call me back?”
As soon as the call connected, a barrage of questions came through.
Ever since they confirmed their engagement, Tang Jiali had become increasingly vigilant about the people around her. He would call to check on her from time to time. Especially this time, because of some reasons, he had returned to the country two months earlier than her, and Fang Chuning had to receive three or four calls from him every day.
Originally, she thought getting married was just getting married, it didn’t matter who it was with. But now she was starting to regret it a little. The feeling of being constantly monitored about what she was doing made her feel mentally exhausted.
“I just got off the plane. I’m a bit tired.”
“Then you could have sent me a message. You act like you don’t care at all, you’re not treating me like your fiancé at all.”
Fang Chuning tilted her head to look out the window, her voice flat, “I didn’t check my phone.”
“You knew I would definitely call you, why didn’t you check your phone? You’re clearly doing this on purpose.”
No matter what she said, the other side always had an attitude like he was in the right. Fang Chuning closed her eyes briefly and directly hung up the phone.
About five minutes later, he sent a message apologizing. Fang Chuning didn’t look at it. She was already used to it. It was always like this – unreasonable tantrums followed by apologies, but then no change, and the same thing would happen next time.
Fang Chuning felt that her temper had improved a lot compared to before. If it were in the past, she would have blocked him long ago, regardless of who he was.
She closed her eyes to rest. When she opened them again, it was because the driver was reminding her that they had arrived. The golden, carved iron gates slowly opened, and the car drove into the villa estate. The gardeners who were working cast curious glances, and when they saw who was in the car, their faces lit up with joy, “It’s the young miss, the young miss is back!”
The servants who were working heard this and happily gathered around. Seeing these familiar faces that she hadn’t seen in a long time, Fang Chuning’s face showed a relaxed smile, “Is everyone doing well?”
“Yes, yes, it’s best that the young miss is back!”
“Young miss, weren’t you supposed to come back tomorrow? The master has been happy for several days, he bought many gifts, saying he would go to the airport to pick you up tomorrow.”
Fang Chuning smiled, “I came a day early, didn’t have time to say. Is dad at home?”
“No, Manager Ye accompanied the master to buy gifts for the young miss.”
“It’s good that the young miss is back. The young miss has gotten thinner after not seeing you for several years.”
The one who said this was an old servant who had worked for the Fang family for more than ten years. There were tears in his eyes, as if he had seen his own child come back after suffering.
Fang Chuning allowed him to hold her hand, and comforted him gently: “Uncle Wu, I haven’t gotten thinner, I’ve just grown taller so I look thinner to you. I actually weigh more than before.”
“Oh, you have grown much taller. My eyes are a bit old, I can’t see clearly.”
Fang Chuning chatted with them for a while before walking towards the villa. She had thought there was no one at home, but when she entered the hall, she found that Fang Tianli was at home, along with two other young men.
Clearly not expecting her to come back a day early, Fang Tianli was stunned for a moment, then his beautiful and gorgeous face lit up with joy. He suddenly rushed towards her and crashed into her arms, “Fang Chuning, you finally deigned to come back!”
Fang Chuning was startled for a moment, seemingly not expecting him to be so enthusiastic. A part of her heart that had been missing family warmth felt touched. She fondly ruffled his fluffy head, “How come you’ve become even clingier now that you’ve grown up?”
Fang Tianli’s eyes reddened, “It’s all because of mom. She wouldn’t let me and dad come see you.”
Although they used to bicker every time they met, in Fang Tianli’s heart, she was his only real sister.
“Mom had her reasons for not letting you come see me. You shouldn’t blame her.”
On this point, Fang Chuning could understand Hong. She sent her to D Country purely to train her, and it did indeed train her. In five years, she had been kidnapped four times, all by some gangsters or those who had business entanglements with Hong. For a while, she even suspected that Hong sending her abroad was actually because she disliked her and wanted her to die overseas.
Of course, neither her father nor brother knew about these things.
Fang Tianli pouted but didn’t dwell on this matter anymore. He stepped out of her embrace, “Did you bring me any gifts?”
“Yes, they’re in the car. I’ll have someone bring them in later.”
From the corner of her eye, Fang Chuning noticed the two young men approaching them. When she saw their faces clearly, she was surprised for a moment – they were identical twins.
Fang Tianli lifted his chin slightly, proud as a peacock, and introduced them, “This is my sister, Fang Chuning.”
“These two are my friends. He’s called Dong Hao and he’s Dong Han. They’re twins, see? Don’t they look exactly the same? Can you tell who is who?”
Fang Chuning’s gaze swept over the two young men’s faces. It wasn’t difficult to tell them apart – one had a mole under his eye while the other didn’t. The one without the mole, Dong Han, was staring at her blankly, his face completely red, his eyes fixed on her.
“So you’re Sister Fang. Hello, I’m Dong Hao.” The one with the mole under his eye, Dong Hao, had sparkling eyes and a friendly smile as he extended his right hand towards her.
Fang Chuning lightly shook his hand and said “Hello”, then told Fang Tianli: “You guys play first, I’m going to my room to rest for a bit.”
When she reached the stairs, she paused and turned back, “Has anyone cleaned my room?”
“Of course. After you went abroad, your room has been cleaned every day.”
Fang Chuning nodded and headed up to the third floor.
The beautifully packaged gifts were placed one by one on the table by the servants. Fang Tianli happily unwrapped the one with his name on it, not forgetting to tell the twins: “See? I told you that magazine made my sister look ugly.”
The twins sat down beside him. Dong Hao’s heart was still pounding, “Lili, can we stay at your house and have dinner with you today?”
Fang Tianli gave him a meaningful look and reminded him: “I know what you’re thinking. She’s already engaged to that Tang whatever. You guys don’t have a chance.”
“No, we just want to have dinner with you, that’s all. Please?”
“Alright then, stay for dinner.”

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.
