Oops! I Tricked a Paranoid Tycoon, and Now I Can’t Shake Him

[Dangerous, ruthless predator VS rational, dazzling fox-like con artist] [Rekindled romance + evenly matched + devoted to each other + adult leads + happy ending] Lord He Qi, who stands at the top of the food chain. He has always been quiet and free of worldly desires. Yet even with Buddhist prayer beads in hand, he shows no mercy in his dealings. Until the sound of a woman's playful laughter rang out from the temple where he lived. After that, no one saw those prayer beads again. Only then did people realize that it wasn't because the Buddha's disciple was beyond mortal passions. The bewitching creature who could ensnare his soul simply hadn't appeared yet. But that creature got bored, ran off, and left no trace behind. She was an expert at tying up loose ends. The night they met again came two years later. Ji Nanxuan opened the door for the sweet young man she'd hired for the night, only to be pinned against it. Fu Siying breathed in the scent at her neck. “Baby, it's been so long.” Old flames, consumed by desire. Dangerous longing collides with a mix of pretense and truth… Ji Nanxuan drove his mother to her death, tugged her cap lower, and walked away without a backward glance. The scattered prayer beads were whole again, dangling from her palm as she toyed with them. “A good hunter never goes soft on her prey. Welcome back to the game.” [The powerful man bows his head, while the con artist occasionally lets her true feelings show.]
