[Cool, striking, and levelheaded female CEO × aloof yet clingy, tsundere younger villain]
[Reborn + sweet romance + love rivals + younger man at first, older man later + intense push and pull + villain turns dark and locks her up + five-year age gap + both virgins, happy ending]
On the night she is reborn, Xia Zhixu accidentally “steals” the villainous big shot's mysterious mark.
The System tells her that if she wants to live, she has to make him fall in love with her.
With a smile, she puts a marriage contract in front of him. “Marry me for show. Once the term is up, we'll divorce, and I'll return your mark.”
-
After the wedding, Sheng Baili lays down the rules: “Don't seduce me, and don't climb into my bed.”
In short, no hanky-panky.
Xia Zhixu stays calm and composed, focusing solely on completing her mission.
But who knew the villainous younger man would get so deep into character?
When she's in danger, he turns into a mad wolf king, ready to kill even gods and Buddhas.
When she comes home, he instantly becomes a wronged, loyal puppy, asking for hugs and praise.
-
She says, “You said I wasn't allowed to seduce you.”
He smiles softly. “That rule is void.”
She adds, “You said I wasn't allowed to climb into your bed.”
He pulls her into his arms. “That rule is void too.”
At last, Xia Zhixu hands him the divorce papers. “Our time is up. We'll divorce, I'll return your mark, and we'll be even.”
Sheng Baili tears up the papers and pins her against the wall, his eyes red. “The contract may be settled, but when will you give me back my heart?”
-
Just when Xia Zhixu thinks everything is over, she unexpectedly transmigrates to a parallel world.
When she wakes, a more mature and dangerous Sheng Baili has her locked in his arms.
She knows she won't escape this time.
She tries to turn the tables and seize the last bit of “control,” but Sheng Baili presses her beneath him. “Zhizhi, this time my rule is...”
“Don't leave me.”
