Everyone at the hospital knew that Xie Linyuan, a cardiothoracic surgeon, was aloof, abstinent, and indifferent to women, like a flower growing on a sheer mountain peak.
No one knew that at the Monday morning meeting, one glance was all it took for him to fall completely for Wen Ruan, the administrative assistant who brought in the documents.
Everyone knew that the gentle yet devious Director Xie was a distant uncle of her boyfriend.
The shackles of morality? He smashed them himself.
Their difference in status and seniority? He chose not to see it.
She had a boyfriend? He went straight after her.
His deliberately slowed steps in the hallway, work excuses to see her in the office, silent protection late at night, and unhesitating favoritism in the emergency room...
Xie Linyuan hid none of his desire, laying his plans step by step as he brazenly hunted her down.
“Director Xie, I'm your nephew's wife.”
“So what?” He stroked her cheek with his fingertips, his possessiveness plain in his eyes. “If he doesn't cherish you, I will.”
“Aren't you afraid people will condemn you?”
“Afraid?” Xie Linyuan gave a low laugh, his tone obsessive and reckless. “Compared with losing you, there's nothing I fear.”
From then on, the hospital had an open secret:
The aloof, abstinent Director Xie was openly stealing another man's girlfriend and doting on his wife beyond all reason.
She ran, he chased, and she couldn't escape even if she sprouted wings.
He was determined to tear down this wall.
Wen Ruan: “All right, I'll be honest. Your nephew and I are pretending. We were just fooling our parents to get out of blind dates.”
