A lazy, beautiful freeloader who just wants to coast through life, Top X a respectable woman who loses control, a wealthy heiress with insatiable desires, Bottom
Li Li grew up in an orphanage and drifted through life in a daze. When her family stopped funding her studies abroad, she couldn't be bothered to work hard, so she pretended to be a cool, artistic woman and mingled with the upper class, content with picking up a few little luxury items.
It was her first time gold-digging, and she was a complete novice. Her career as a green tea had barely begun when she hit a wall.
She tried to play hard to get, saying, "You shouldn't spend so much," while staring straight at Jiang Zhaowan's watch.
She tried to act magnanimous and not jealous, but what came out was, "That lady is so beautiful. I feel so inferior. I'm not good enough for you."
Li Li thought she was doing a great job. Just the right amount of distance, with a little vulnerability and dependence now and then.
Until one day, at a dinner party, Jiang Zhaowan said to a friend right in front of her, "Oh, she's putting on an act."
Her chopsticks nearly fell. Jiang Zhaowan leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Don't be scared. I like it."
Jiang Zhaowan saw through the chance encounters she'd carefully arranged at a glance.
The coy push-and-pull she'd spent so long planning fell apart in a second beneath her amused gaze.
"Are you trying to get me to spend money on you again?" Jiang Zhaowan called her out directly.
Her face turned red to the roots of her hair. She wanted to deny it, but in the end all she could manage was, "I just... It's the first time anyone's been willing to take care of me."
Li Li carefully planned every move, trying to ensnare that composed, respectable woman.
Until Jiang Zhaowan cornered her on the sofa, one hand braced beside her ear as she slowly removed her glasses with the other.
"All those little schemes of yours," she said, looking down at Li Li, her breath close and her voice soft. "I was letting you get away with them."
"Even now," she paused, "I'm still letting you get away with it."
Yes, that's good. It reminds me of Cha Ji-min.
It's incredibly beautiful!
It elucidates the meaning of elegance, mentioning art and literature multiple times without falling into any pretentious or artsy trappings. The writing is solid and reassuring, offering a rare female perspective on the modern American dream.
I've had so much fun watching this in ages! 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
This setting is awesome!
I love it so much (ღ˘⌣˘ღ), the character design is great, I really like the bittersweet and agonizing moments.
It's very well written and looks great.
It's alright, it would be better if Jiang Zhaowan's inner thoughts in the early stages were more fleshed out.
