[One woman, multiple men + A genuinely wicked heroine + Men with clean romantic and sexual histories + Taming the dogs + A battlefield of men competing for her]
High society called Su Li, the Su family's only daughter, a perfect work of art. She was gentle and graceful, with a beauty mark beneath her eye that made people ache to protect her.
The night before her engagement party, she was in Lu Siye's studio. The deranged artist pinned her against a wall covered in portraits of her. She stroked his head as if soothing a dog.
The next day, Gu Jingchen slipped a ten-carat pink diamond onto her finger. Their union was the wedding of the century, envied by all. But Lu Siye charged in and kissed her in front of everyone. The two men grappled, knocking over the champagne tower as the guests erupted in shock.
Wiping her lips, she spotted a man leaning against a pillar on the second floor: Lu Huaiqian. He raised his glass with a faint smile, as if watching a show.
Her childhood friend Shen Du hurried over, cracks appearing in his gentle, jade-like composure.
She smiled. They were all here.
Later, Gu Jingchen pinned her against a wall, eyes bloodshot. “I'm your husband! What right do they have?” Lu Siye knelt before her. “Lili, please, won't you love me?”
Shen Du lowered his head and signed the dock agreement. “Twelve years. I've been waiting for you to look back.”
Lu Huaiqian gripped her chin, smiling meaningfully. “My younger brother's gone mad? Let me take over.”
She sat among the four of them, watching them fight for her favor and willingly become her dogs.
Someone asked what she wanted.
She smiled. “Money, power, and these four men. All of you, stay alive and be my dogs.”
