[Gu Mingyu x Su Muxi]
[Both untouched, one-on-one romance, wealthy heiress, stubborn to the core, rekindled love, secret crush becomes mutual]
When Su Muxi first met Gu Mingyu, he was distant and gave off an unmistakable keep-away-from-me aura. It was her calling him “big brother” again and again that slowly lowered every defense around his heart.
At some point, Gu Mingyu’s possessiveness toward her began to grow unchecked. But the inferiority and sense of unworthiness buried deep in his bones kept him from confessing the feelings he’d had since they were young.
Then a misunderstanding drove Su Muxi to flee overseas, and the two were apart for five years.
They met again five years later at her father’s funeral.
He had become a rising star in the business world and, as the Su family’s stepson, took charge of every aspect of the funeral, hosting guests with effortless composure…
With both her parents gone and her relatives watching her like vultures, Gu Mingyu became one of the people closest to her in the world.
More than close: to outsiders, the cool, abstinent Mr. Gu seemed to desire nothing, but every time he crossed her threshold, he wanted to devour Su Muxi whole.
Gu Mingyu spoke in a hoarse voice. “Let’s get married, Xixi.”
Su Muxi curled her lips into a faint smile, refusing to give him what he wanted. “We’re both adults. Let’s just get what we need from each other.”
Woohoo, are there any babies to watch?
