Obsessive Devotion: The Villainous Beauty's Code of Self-Worship

[Everyone's favorite + sophisticated, self-serving, cold-hearted woman + rival suitors + all male leads are virgins] A would-be social parasite is suddenly adopted by a prominent family, making the leap across social classes. But this social outcast soon grows dissatisfied with her new lot in life. Beneath her gentle, serene facade lies a boundless, insatiable ambition. She makes a plan to use the You family's vast resources to find a sufficiently obedient dog who can help her secure a firm footing in high society. The pure and untainted Shi Qingtong was abandoned as a child at the gates of a dilapidated, corrupt orphanage. She didn't wallow in self-pity. With resources already scarce, she made clever use of her delicate, innocent, angelic appearance, and people took pity on her, naturally directing what little they had her way. After tasting the benefits, the girl couldn't stop herself. The meager rewards she gained by acting weak were like cheap fertilizer. The tender shoots of a precious flower withered further from lack of nourishment, losing their charm and vitality. Fortunately, that top-grade nutrient solution arrived before it was too late. The self-disciplined, proper only son of the You family is restrained and self-controlled. The heir to a business empire, he's an industry elite with a mind so sharp it seems almost demonic to outsiders. In private, though, his service instincts are off the charts. In Shi Qingtong's mind, he's nothing more than a ladder to the heavens that she can pull back and toss away whenever she likes. Every advantage has a downside, and after taking all the benefits, she turns around and wants to kick him to the curb. She wishes he were blind, so no one would notice the intense love in his eyes and bring trouble down on her, causing her problems. The future partner she favors more is Zuo Yanyun, a somewhat unhinged good-for-nothing with a wealthy family and a habit of coming whenever she calls. He's a fine dog, ready to be trained. The only thing about this seemingly perfect future that doesn't sit right with her is that poor bastard Liao Jinming
