A Flirtation Gone Wrong: The Abstinent Uncle Falls for Me Day After Day

To get out of an absurd business engagement, Wen Ning decides to take matters into her own hands and stage a scandalous affair to tear up the marriage contract herself.

She barges into her fiancé's private room, loops her arms around a man's neck, and breathes sweetly in his ear: "Uncle, they say your nephew can't perform. How about... you take his place?"

In the darkness, the man's lips curl into a dangerous smile.

When the lights come on and she sees his devastatingly handsome face, Wen Ning feels as if she has fallen into an icy abyss.

She made a pass at the wrong man!

The man before her is none other than her fiancé's elusive uncle, rumored to be coldly abstinent and ruthless, and the true power behind the Xie family's business empire: Xie Zonglan!

Terrified, Wen Ning's legs go weak and she tries to escape, but the man's iron grip holds her tightly against him.

He idly rolls the Buddhist beads on his wrist. His gaze is inscrutable, his scorching breath brushes her neck, and his voice is low and obsessive:

"Playing with fire? Then you'd better be ready for the consequences."

"Since you were the one who provoked me, don't think you'll ever leave my world for the rest of your life."

Everyone says that Ninth Master Xie has severed all worldly attachments and desires. Little do they know that, for this audacious little wildcat, he has long been laying his plans step by step, weaving an inescapable web called "love and devotion."
