[Scheming, obsessive, fiercely loyal dog-like hero x sweet, adorable little darling | Forced possession later on | Seven-year age gap | Mutual pining + regretful pursuit]
Su Tianyou posted an official relationship announcement on her social media: "Someone to go to a concert with."
Everyone said Wen Yanqing would marry a well-matched heiress, while Su Tianyou was nothing but an orphan he'd taken in, a songbird he'd carefully kept in a cage.
Half an hour later, a black Bentley pulled up at the art studio. Wen Yanqing ignored everyone's dropped jaws and carried her out:
"Looking for a stand-in? You dare? You just try it, Youyou!"
He gripped Su Tianyou by the waist and used her phone to post a photo of them together, faces visible, with the caption: "Official announcement: she's mine."
Su Tianyou thought this was the happy ending to their mutual pining, and lost herself in his tenderness.
Until she learned that the Wen family's kindness toward her had been bought with her father's life.
Perhaps all his years of care had been nothing more than a way to atone for his guilt.
She wanted to use the chance to study abroad to escape this cage disguised as love...
But he held Su Tianyou captive in his arms, eyes red, his voice hoarse:
"Youyou, from the day you entered the Wen family, it was settled that you'd belong to me alone."
"Want to leave? Only over my dead body."
