Escape the Tyrant CEO: Playing Hard to Get in His Game of Possession!

Unhinged, possessive heir to a powerful family × clear-eyed, levelheaded recipient 【Coercive romance + rise from the bottom + groveling chase + mutual salvation】 An Lan, a male nurse in the emergency department, accidentally flushed away the lighter belonging to investment tycoon Jiang Yanhuai in a restroom at an academic forum. He used his own three-yuan lighter to light a cigarette for the restless man holding one between his lips. He had no idea that in C Country’s elite circles, when a powerful man holds an unlit cigarette and someone beneath him offers a flame, it’s an invitation to spend the night together. Later, after losing his job and being saddled with a mountain of debt, An Lan was delivering food on a rainy night when Jiang Yanhuai opened the door. The man imprisoned him in a villa abroad, his eyes bloodshot as he demanded, “You lit my fire. What gives you the right not to take responsibility?” While trapped in that cage, An Lan earned a degree and handed him the certificate. “Now can I share my future with you?” Capital crushed his dignity, but love grew through the cracks. When the blue gum tree learned to stop being overbearing, the mistletoe bird crossed the seas and returned “I love nothing in this world but you. But love isn’t a cage. It’s surrendering to your own free will.”
