[Cool, Resilient Black Lotus ✖️ Easygoing Rich Young Master]
A friendly heads-up: The male lead only pretends to be a playboy. He’s pure in both body and heart.
Powerful man humbled by love · revenge · clear-eyed surrender · sweet on the outside, dark within
The day her mother died, Chi Yun swore she would make everyone who had hurt them pay!
She set her sights on Zhou Shubai, the man standing beside her half-sister.
He was the most arrogant young master in Shencheng, raised in luxury and convinced the whole world revolved around him. He’d never known what it meant to want something he couldn’t have.
A man like that would be easy to deceive, and easy to use.
Chi Yun played cold and obedient, drawing closer to him one careful step at a time, all so she could use him to get revenge.
But she never expected the infamous playboy to offer her a sincere heart he’d never given anyone else.
When she was ready to walk away, Zhou Shubai cornered her at the mouth of an alley on a stormy night.
Soaked through, his eyes red, he clutched her wrist and spoke in a voice hoarse with emotion:
“Chi Yun, if I’m no longer useful to you, does that mean you don’t want me anymore?”
“I’m begging you. Can’t you really love me?”
