A pampered, delicate canary from Beijing's elite circles vs. a suited-up, mixed-race boxing champion with a violent streak
【The male lead competes for her and won't let go + The second male lead regrets it and tries to win her back + Sweet romance + Both devoted to each other + Size difference + Underworld big shot who plays the pig to eat the tiger + Female lead who grows stronger】
Qin Nian'an has been pampered by Yan Mochen for twelve years, and is known throughout their circle as the “Yan family's canary.”
He dotes on her, but also keeps her under lock and key.
She thinks it's love, and finally summons the courage to confess, only to be met with his cold ridicule: “Nian'an, I'm your uncle.”
Yan Mochen cuts off her financial support, leaving her alone and helpless in the depths of winter.
With nowhere else to turn, Qin Nian'an walks into a bar and unexpectedly meets Pei Jing.
He's a handsome mixed-race man, a top student in both Chinese language and literature and economics, and her teaching assistant for a major course. In private, he's a fearsome fighter in the ring.
At the lectern, he wears gold-rimmed glasses and is as gentle as jade, explaining dry economic models.
Away from class, he throws punches with all his strength, his knuckles calloused, a bloodthirsty demon fresh from the ring.
Yan Mochen thinks Qin Nian'an is just throwing a tantrum. Then one rainy night, he blocks the entrance downstairs, frantic with rage: “Had enough yet? Come home with me!”
Pei Jing opens the door in a loose dressing gown, shielding Qin Nian'an behind him, a provocative smile on his lips.
“Mr. Yan, disturbing the neighbors in the middle of the night. Is that how the Yan family teaches its children?”
Later, Yan Mochen is red-eyed with regret, begging Qin Nian'an to come back.
But Pei Jing gives up his freedom and takes over the family's trillion-yuan criminal empire, all to protect her for the rest of her life.
Content warning: The female lead starts out delicate and becomes clear-eyed and strong. She cries easily, but is ruthless.
Sweet throughout, with little angst except for the scumbag's comeuppance. Feel free to dive in!
I really like this theme [shy]
I just want to know when the baby girl will know the truth about the death of her parents. The Yan family is really disgusted.
Good-looking, good-looking, good-looking, good-looking
