Taming the Mad Dog

[Rekindled romance / reunion after years apart / sweet romance / both leads’ first love]

[Egg cracker x vicious mad dog]

Years ago, when Luo Tang was dating He Yuzhou, she received some news: He Yuzhou had made a grand, public declaration asking her out only because he’d bet someone he could win over a girl like her in three days.

He Yuzhou had a handsome face and an enviable background, but the soul of a devil. He was like a mad dog, impossible to tame.

Luo Tang had no intention of letting a mad dog like that toy with her, so she dumped him.

They say the breakup was ugly.

-

Years later, they meet again.

The lights in the exclusive club are blinding. Luo Tang sits quietly in a corner, there only as someone else’s plus-one.

It’s not until the last guest enters the banquet hall, escorted by the driver’s deferential hand, that Luo Tang’s expression falters.

As memory and reality converge, the man she hasn’t seen in years crosses the crowd, step by step, and stops beside her.

“So this is my future little stepsister? Well, well, she’s pretty.”

-

After the banquet, the guests leave one after another.

The dignified man at the head of the table notices the strange atmosphere between them and asks, “Yuzhou, do you know Tang?”

Luo Tang answers first. “Uncle, we don’t know each other.”

He Yuzhou grips his wineglass, his narrowed eyes fixed on Luo Tang’s composed face. “Right, Dad. We don’t know each other.”

But in a secluded corner of the club, with no one around,

He Yuzhou grabs Luo Tang by the arm and pulls her onto his lap. “Come on, tell your new big brother again. Who is it you don’t know?”

Luo Tang’s face is expressionless. “You.”

The world spins. He pins her against the sofa, his fingers grazing the pretty hollow of her collarbone.

“Luo Tang, are you going to make me help you remember how you used to feel up my abs?”
