Runaway Canary: The Sickly Tycoon Pretends to Be Sweet and Knows Just How to Flirt

[Top-tier wealthy family + cool, elegant beauty heroine + seemingly innocent but ruthless, unhinged hero + both untouched + rekindled romance] On a stormy day, six months after losing her memory, Meng Ruochao found a stunningly handsome man at the entrance to her shop. He looked refined and distinguished, yet ate cheap rice balls and wore a short-sleeved shirt washed so often it had faded. Her sympathy got the better of her, and she decided to take him in like a down-and-out puppy. Besides, the puppy could iron her silk blouses, and when customers gave her a hard time, he would tug at her sleeve with reddened eyes... Until one night, she accidentally discovered The “poor little thing” who always looked at her with the clear eyes of a fawn was nonchalantly wiping blood from his fingertips, with the man who had brought her flowers that afternoon beneath his foot. He looked up at her, his gaze icy cold. There wasn’t a trace of gentleness left. “Chaochao, you saw everything?” He advanced step by step, his gentle voice laced with force and possessiveness. “Now it’s time to end the game. Will you walk into the cage on your own, or... should I help you?” As she watched him shed his disguise, her memories finally returned. Six months ago, she had been the canary he kept in a cage. Furious and shaken, she tried to run again. But this time, after he caught her, Pei Jiangmu loosened his tie, revealing the silver chain around his neck that he had once used to keep her locked up. “Only by pretending to be a lost puppy...” “...could I get close enough to feel your warmth.” “Now, will you keep me locked up instead?” [He seems like a harmless, sweet puppy on the outside, but in truth he’s a ruthless, calculating madman who controls everything! He schemes at every turn and carefully maintains his disguise, all to keep her locked by his side!]
