A Heart Captured: Young Master Qi's Darling Is Far Too Well-Behaved!

[Two male leads + forced marriage alliance + possessive older man + long-laid plans]

The only person Shen Zhiyi had ever feared was Qi Yin.

When he was seventeen, he was sent to the Qi family to be disciplined.

Seven years older than him, Qi Yin was cold and domineering, with ruthless methods. He ground down all of Shen Zhiyi’s little tricks and rebellious streak.

At last, once he came of age, Shen Zhiyi fled overseas in the middle of the night, swearing he would never see Qi Yin again.

But at twenty-five, a forced marriage alliance dragged him back from abroad.

And his marriage partner was none other than Qi Yin.

On their wedding night, Shen Zhiyi was trembling with fear. He offered a no-interference agreement, begging for them to leave each other alone after marriage and do as they pleased.

Qi Yin didn’t even look at it. He picked up a pen, signed his name, and said coolly, “Suit yourself.”

Shen Zhiyi was overjoyed and treated the agreement like a talisman that would save his life.

After the wedding, he let himself go completely: bar-hopping every night, one party after another, staying out until late, and surrounded by rumors. He was sure Qi Yin was cold and unfeeling and wouldn’t try to control him.

Until one day, he came home late against the rules. The man pinned him hard against the wall, gripping his wrist tightly, his gaze dark and his voice low and dangerous. “A Yi, have I been indulging you too much?”

Shen Zhiyi understood in an instant:

That agreement had been nothing but a worthless piece of paper from the very beginning.

Only after they had spent some time together did Shen Zhiyi see Qi Yin’s true colors:

When sober, he was as cold as ice and saw through every lie.

When drunk, though, he was crazily clingy and soft, holding Shen Zhiyi tight against his chest and murmuring against his shoulder, “A Yi, hold me.”

It turned out every bit of freedom had been planned, and every indulgence was a trap.

Qi Yin had already closed in around him, step by step. Shen Zhiyi fell willingly into the powerful man’s cage, and would never escape again.
