After He Read My Mind, Ninth Master Insisted on Holding Me to Keep Me Alive

[Mind Reading + Touch Starvation + Secret Identity Face-Slapping + Beijing's Beloved + Hilarious Contrast] Jiang Li, the fake heiress thrown out by the Lin family, is the laughingstock the whole city is waiting to see fall. On a rainy night, she appears cool and composed as she treats a patient with acupuncture, while her inner monologue runs wild: [This guy has a slim waist, long legs, and a perfect v-line, but what a pity he's doomed to die young... Those prayer beads are nice. Grind them into powder and they'll cure insomnia!] Fu Jiuyuan, the Ninth Master of Beijing's elite circle, has always despised women and suffers from severe touch sensitivity. He slowly opens his eyes and grabs the hand she was about to use to take his prayer beads. From then on, Jiang Li notices that the look this feared living King of Hell gives her is getting stranger and stranger. He needs to hold her every night to fall asleep. * On the night of their engagement, Jiang Li watches the man closing in on her, her thoughts exploding: [Why is the neckline of that bathrobe so low? Who are you trying to seduce? I want to sleep with him, but what if he can't perform...?] Fu Jiuyuan can't take it anymore. He leans over her and grits out in her ear: "Do you really not know whether I can perform?" "And, baby, those filthy thoughts of yours are making my eyes hurt." Jiang Li: !!!??? (Heads-up: The heroine acts like a cool, formidable boss, but inwardly she's a lustful, snarky chatterbox. The contrast is huge! You'll laugh your head off!)
