[Aloof special forces brigade commander from the capital’s elite circles x crime psychologist who can be both commanding and sweet]
[Devoted to each other, 1v1 romance + intense push and pull + doting father figure + everyone falls for them in the end]
Ji Fei is the celebrated beauty of Jinghua University, a specially appointed expert revered in academic circles.
In public, she is Professor Ji, her gold-rimmed glasses practically fused to her face: cool, aloof, and seemingly incapable of loving anyone.
In private, she is “Crimson Rose,” a top-tier star in the cosplay scene. With a change of secret identity, she becomes both innocent and wild.
A marriage contract lands her straight in the arms of the capital’s most mysterious “human weapon”: Wen Shuo, a special forces brigade commander.
At thirty-eight, he has broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, and the cold, austere bearing of a career soldier.
All of the capital is betting that Ji Fei, this delicate flower, will be reduced to tears by the “Living Yama” within three days and flee in the dead of night.
Ji Fei: Thanks for asking. I have a bad feeling about this.
Their married life instantly turns into a spy thriller. She hides wigs and props, terrified that this iron-blooded commander will confiscate them on the spot and put her under “military management.”
But then
During a surprise raid, Wen Shuo kicks open the door, his gun trained precisely on the “dangerous criminal” in the corner, who is wielding a rocket launcher.
Their eyes meet. The air freezes.
Ji Fei slowly lowers the prop, almost indistinguishable from the real thing, and forces a polite smile. “Reporting to the commander, if I said this was performance art… would you believe me?”
The next day, Ji Fei rubs her nearly broken back and grits her teeth. “Commander Wen, is this how you ‘manage’ me?”
Wen Shuo calmly fastens his collar button, then bends down to brush a kiss against her lips. “Yes. I’ll manage you for the rest of our lives. And I’ll make sure you get enough.”
She is a wildfire that sweeps across the plains, burning so fiercely that he willingly bows to her.
So pretty! The storyline is compact and interlocking. The characters have distinct personalities. A novel worth staying up late to catch up on. 👍👍👍
