Gentle yet commanding power player from Beijing’s elite circles X sweet, kitten-like young wife
Their relationship had been perfectly courteous for two years, until one drunken night, when Gu Linxuan lost control and forcefully took Ji Ran against the cold floor-to-ceiling window. Everything changed after that.
When Gu Linxuan returned from a business trip, he discovered that she had gone to work as a housekeeper at the home of playboy Li Beichuan.
Thinking his rough loss of control had driven Ji Ran away, he went to find her, gently coaxing her and apologizing as he explained himself, only to discover it was all a misunderstanding.
Two years earlier, she had been exposed as a fake heiress and lost everything overnight. After being bullied and losing all her confidence, Ji Ran simply didn’t want to give up on herself. She wanted to work independently.
All she knew was that Gu Linxuan wouldn’t let her work and expected her to obey him.
What she didn’t know was how much Gu Linxuan had done behind the scenes over the past two years to protect her safety and self-respect.
But the influential man who always has everything under control says: “Whatever my wife wants to do, I’ll do it with her. I’ll encourage her, understand her, and stay by her side.”
“Ranran, stay and keep working.”
Li Beichuan used to enjoy playing the domineering CEO while living out a ridiculous, melodramatic romance with his stand-in. But when he sees the two of them standing beside him, waiting for his instructions, he feels like he’s sitting on pins and needles.
Li Beichuan: You want to come work as my housekeeper? Am I, the mighty domineering CEO, part of your roleplay or something?
Gu Linxuan: I’ll increase my investment.
Li Beichuan: You really know people, bro. I am part of your roleplay.
Gu Linxuan also gradually realizes that he completely misunderstood things when he came to explain himself to Ji Ran. His girl doesn’t like a relationship that’s all courtesy and distance. She actually likes the forceful kind, with a private, shameful thrill.
