The Wolf-Taming Game

Just as Chu Jinhe is about to return home after more than ten years of studying abroad, she gets a call from her father, Xiao Yu. He tells her that her mother, Chu Nan, is coming to Britain to visit. Delighted, Jinhe assumes it will be an ordinary visit, until she sees her mother in the airport’s VIP arrivals lounge, guarded by professional bodyguards, paralyzed in a wheelchair and unable to speak clearly. For the next three years, Chu Jinhe and Chu Nan are forcibly imprisoned in a country villa in Britain by the bodyguards her father has arranged.

During that time, Chu Jinhe learns from the news back home that Xiao Yu, a fortune hunter who married into the family, had been cheating with his first love, Song Jinyao, for years. They even had a son and a daughter together. Over the decades, the two of them worked together to strip Chu Nan’s family business bare. After Chu Nan’s father, Chu Hanyuan, passed away, Xiao Yu showed his true colors and began using every means at his disposal to force Chu Nan to transfer all her shares to him. The repeated blows left her paralyzed by a stroke.

Chu Jinhe, Chu Nan, and Chu Nan’s close friend Zhuang Lan devise an escape plan together. But Chu Jinhe mistakes Cheng Yi for Cheng Xun and seduces him into bed, causing the plan to fail. Chu Nan and Zhuang Lan then disappear. To find them and escape her father’s clutches, Chu Jinhe enters the game with a hunter’s instincts and a prey’s unease. She’ll do whatever it takes, even if that means loving and fighting her beloved at the same time. Trust or betrayal? Can someone who once betrayed love ever love again?
