In his previous life, chaebol heiress Chu Youwei pretended to be cruel and drove Lu Chen away to protect him. In the end, she took the thousand brutal cuts of the Abyss in his place and died in a pool of blood.
Reborn, Lu Chen returns to his final year of high school.
At this point, the “Black Lotus” Chu Youwei, feared by the whole school, has him cornered against a wall. She warns him coldly, “Get out of Jiangcheng, or I’ll make you wish you were dead!”
But Lu Chen has awakened the [Mind-Reading System], and he hears her trembling inner voice:
[Boohoo, Lu Chen, hurry up and leave. Those monsters are coming. I mustn’t drag you into this…]
Faced with the System’s option to drop out of school, Lu Chen turns the tables!
To the shock of the entire school, he grabs the chaebol heiress by the chin and kisses her forcefully!
The whole place falls silent! Everyone thinks Lu Chen is done for!
The next second, the cold, merciless witch-like school beauty’s mind goes blank. A blush spreads from her neck to the tips of her ears, and she goes limp in his arms.
“This time, let me protect you.”
From then on, Jiangcheng is turned upside down.
With one hand, Lu Chen builds a trillion-dollar business empire; with the other, he brings the gods of the hidden world to heel!
And the witch-like school beauty who once kept everyone at arm’s length becomes a sweet wife who clings only to him.
[Maximum sweetness + one female lead + mind-reading contrast + thrilling and angst-free + mutual devotion]
It ended too quickly later on
I reluctantly gave it five stars.
