    Why It Should Get Picked Up: Tragedy, very sad, but I really like it, so...
    Tag: Self-loathing, sad romance, extreme tragedy, genderbender, prostitution, violence...
    Description: A really rich and complacent gongzi encounters a wandering prostitute that sells her smiles for a living, apparently a common and regular old tale, but with this fated encounter, is a 3 lives promise of mysterious and strange body exchange. The black butterfly stopped upon the red rose at the other side, but loves cant fly over the ocean. How does one struggle to return after losing everything? What to choose in an emotional quagmire?
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    One of the saddest tragedy I have ever read. With NTR, you mostly feel rage, but for self-loathing (idk if nuf has this, but this kinda tag is often describe a novel with MC suffers great misfortunes, and such, usually hate and torture herself/himself mentally and/or physically), you also feel extreme sadness with whatever MC encounters. This type of novel is very haunting and it might eat your soul for days.
    Anyhow, like always, this one is also a gender bender novel. I working on this one as it is one of my favorite of all time, and an opportunity for me to learn chinese.

    I really wanna continue doing it, but I am totally unfamiliar with ancient setting novel. In the past, I got an editor that helped me out. But rest assured, I pushed the project to SnowyCodex. He/She might do it after finishing one of the projects they have on hands.

    Yes, reading through the novel and what the MC suffered, I want more people to cry with me so I am not alone. LOL. Well, consider this is a gender bender and how so few people interested in tragedy, I might as well do it myself, plus it is an opportunity to learn Chinese at the same time.

    It means son of a rich family. In ancient setting, the ladies often call educated young men with background using this word.

    Tragedies/tragic heroines are interesting--I can only take certain kinds, like the ones where the MC suffers quietly (The Wolf Lord's Lady, My Fiance is in Love with My Little Sister, I Reincarnated, but I Think the Prince (Fiancé) Has given Up, etc).

    This one seems like it'll fit the mold! Looking forward to the translation! :D
