Kindling Desire

【Resilient fallen heiress VS cold-faced, warm-hearted Hong Kong power player】 (One-on-one romance + both leads inexperienced + Hong Kong socialite’s kept woman + disparity in age and status + intense push and pull + angst before sweetness + groveling to win her back) After the Zhan family fell into ruin, Zhan Yan went from the heights of luxury to rock bottom, becoming a fallen heiress in everyone’s eyes. To save her father when he suffered a sudden heart attack, she knocked on the door of a top-floor hotel suite. She never expected to enter the wrong room and sleep with the wrong man. He craved her softness and warmth, and deliberately drew her into an affair. She wanted a moment of tenderness from him and mistook it for love. They were entangled for a long time, but then an unexpected marriage contract came between them. What Zhan Yan lost was every last bit of her sincere love. After all the pain and tears, Zhan Yan finally came to her senses. Now that the woman he was meant to marry had appeared, it was time for his “secret” kept woman to leave the stage. Zhan Yan packed her bags and got ready to leave. One dark, stormy night, she grabbed her suitcase and ran. Later Neon lights blurred the night, Zhan Yan’s hair hung in a messy tangle down her back, and her lips were swollen from kissing. The handsome man, usually cold and haughty, coaxed her softly: “The first trimester is the most dangerous. You can’t go running off like that.”
