[Age gap, mutual flirting and tension, both leads sexually inexperienced, powerful man gives in, faux uncle romance, old flame rekindled]
[Chaste, cold-hearted heir to a powerful Beijing family VS cool, flirtatious, sweet young beauty]
Everyone says Huo Yunzheng, the heir to one of Beijing’s most powerful families, is a renowned ice-cold beauty: chaste, aloof, and uninterested in women.
Ji Lingzhao refuses to believe it. She plays sweet and helpless, teasing him and testing his limits one step at a time.
He grips her by the waist and pins her against the wall, his breath scorching. “Playing with fire, are you? Have you thought this through?”
She laughs breathlessly. “Uncle, are you afraid?”

Fu Yunzheng saw through Ji Lingzhao’s intentions from the very beginning: her tricks, her schemes. But he fell for it anyway, playing along with her in this game of seduction.
Then one day, the little vixen simply dusts herself off and says she’s done playing...
He kisses her with domineering, savage abandon. “Now that this game has started, I’m not going to let it end so easily.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Change how you address me. Call me your husband.”

Huo Zhou loves Ji Lingzhao. He innocently believes they’ll get married, have children, and spend the rest of their lives together in peace.
Until Ji Lingzhao discovers his secret...
And he finds her in his uncle’s bed.
Huo Zhou completely falls apart. He pounds on the door, drops to his knees, and begs her to come back. Curled up in his uncle’s arms, she can’t even be bothered to look at him.
His uncle calmly fastens his buttons and says to him, “Stop kneeling.”
“If you hurt your knees, how will you come celebrate our wedding?”
