When an icy CEO meets a thorny rose, who will be the first to fall in love for real in this marriage of convenience?
Shen Qingjia, the iron lady of biotech, holds revolutionary green technology in her hands. But just as her company is on the verge of bankruptcy, she faces a hostile takeover by capital tycoon Li Moting. The ruthless man she confronted across the negotiating table turns out to be the current boss of her ex-boyfriend, who mysteriously disappeared three years ago. Even more shocking, Li Moting’s study is locked away with every paper she has written and detailed records of every speech she has given since college.
Li Moting, the “Wolf of Wall Street” who terrifies the business world, never makes a deal at a loss. When he proposes marriage in exchange for financial backing, everyone assumes it is nothing more than a shrewd business calculation. That is, until someone sees the man who has never bowed his head standing drenched in the rain outside her door, simply because he heard her lab had caught fire again.
“I want 51 percent of the shares.” His cold fingers traced the contract.
“Then include yourself.” She drew a hard red line through the signature section.
When business rivals become bedfellows, and secrets in the lab lead to a family vendetta dating back twenty years, the marriage that began as a calculated move spirals out of control. Shen Qingjia discovers that the man who shields her from every overt and covert attack at board meetings bears scars on his back more secretive than she ever imagined. And Li Moting is forced to admit that his carefully plotted revenge never included falling for the pawn he was supposed to use.
In this battle between power and true feelings, the greatest danger has never been the overt and covert attacks of the business world. It is who will be the first to bare their heart once their armor comes off.
