“Sign this agreement and you’ll be Mrs. Ling, but don’t get any ideas about me.”
Lu Qiao looks at the marriage agreement, then at the stern-faced man in front of her. She just wants to ask: Sir, who are you?
Ling Qi is a big shot known to everyone in Beijing’s elite circles. A thirty-year-old bachelor in his prime, he comes from a prominent family and is exceptionally capable, making him the most coveted marriage prospect in the eyes of countless socialites.
Lu Qiao is an HR manager at an ordinary company. She walks dogs on weekends, and her motto in life is, “As long as I can feed myself, I’m fine.”
Her first encounter with him is anything but romantic.
Ling Qi’s incredibly strong husky drags her, completely unprepared, on a wild run before they both tumble into a roadside ditch. When she climbs out, soaked to the skin and with her hair a mess, she meets his scrutinizing gaze.
“You’re the new dog walker?” he asks coolly, his voice giving nothing away.
Lu Qiao just wants the ground to swallow her.
But that disastrous first meeting is what makes the normally composed and self-controlled Ling Qi feel curious about a woman for the first time.
