[Overbearing CEO + revenge + stand-in + sweet and angsty romance + redemption + heroine’s growth]
Shen Jiwan was honest and unassuming, with a face that invited people to bully her, yet she was bold enough to treat Yan Shiyu as a stand-in. After Yan Shiyu fell deeper and deeper for her, she dumped him in the most innocent of voices.
“Mr. Yan, didn’t you approach me for revenge? Since we’re both getting what we want, you don’t think I’ve gone too far, do you?”
Not at all. Not compared to how he schemed against her and set her up, leaving her disgraced and with nothing in A City. She hadn’t gone too far in the slightest.
“Our relationship has been kept in the dark from beginning to end. I hope you’ll keep it confidential, Mr. Yan.”
Only when she turned away and stopped yielding to anyone did Yan Shiyu realize that she wasn’t the one who couldn’t live without him. He was the one who couldn’t lose her!
“Shen Jiwan, I’m willing to be your stand-in, as long as you let me stay by your side.”
Rising star of the legal world, Shen Jiwan: “Call me big sister, and I’ll give you a chance to get in line!”
(The heroine grows over the course of the story. She is rather timid early on, so readers who mind that should be cautious.)
