Black and White
Tags
Summary
[Modern romance + premium fiction + love at first sight + forced possession + mutual redemption + unhinged male lead + 1V1 + HE]
He is pure black; she is clear white.
Their worlds intertwine and merge, unfolding a war without gunfire.
He is domineering and forceful,
and from the moment he met her, he never intended to let her go—this is an obsession.
She is soft and yielding,
and against a master of the heart, she loses completely; caught off guard, she gives both body and heart, leaving herself no way back.
Tang Yi: "Ji Yining, do not leave my world."
Ji Yining: "Being kept by you is not the best kind of fate, but in my heart, it is the one I will never regret."
Editor's review
Who it's for
A good fit for
- Genre-fiction readers who enjoy modern romance and forceful-acquisition setups
- Readers who prefer 1V1, HE endings, and high emotional intensity
- People looking for immersive casual reading on a commute or weekend
- Readers drawn to the pairing of an unhinged male lead and a soft female lead
Not a good fit for
- Readers averse to depictions of controlling relationships or uncomfortable with forceful-acquisition setups
- Readers seeking realistic emotional relationships and equal interaction
- Literary-fiction readers who prefer ensemble casts or depth on social issues
Reading tips
- Read continuously if possible, following the leads' emotional arc to feel the relationship shift
- Watch for the female lead's arc from yielding to self-affirmation, not just the emotional conflict
- After reading, separate the relationship from real-world boundaries and keep a clear-eyed reading distance
- If sensitive to angst, learn the ending's direction first before deciding your reading pace

About the author
Zhao Xiaocheng is a Chinese web novelist who mainly writes modern romance. Public information about her is limited: her real name, nationality, dates of birth and death, and English name are not clearly recorded. Six of her works are held in the collection, including Liang Feng You Xin (The Cool Wind Brings News), Hei Bai (Black and White), Ming Li Chang Ren (People of the Vanity Fair), Bu Hui (No Regret), Jing Ying Qing Ren (Elite Lover), and a four-volume boxed set of her popular wealthy-family romance novels. Judging from these titles and the common category of modern romance, her writing tends to center on urban love stories set against wealthy family backgrounds, with character relationships and emotional tension as the core appeal, often involving the lives and romantic choices of the elite. Her works are identified and circulated among readers under the “wealthy-family romance” label, and the boxed set indicates that some of them have been marketed as collections. Overall, Zhao Xiaocheng is an author active in modern romance who is known for wealthy-family themes; because public information is limited, more material is needed to fill in her life and writing career.
