She Lands a Verbal Blow with Every Word: Lord Bo Can’t Handle Her

[Funny everyday life + possessiveness + older man + rekindled love + abstinent tycoon × shut-in heiress whose sharp tongue comes out whenever she speaks]

Everyone in the capital's inner circle knows Bo Jinye, head of the Bo family, as ruthless, cold-blooded, and utterly disbelieving in love. That is, until he met Cheng Xiaotang, the Cheng family's famously shut-in heiress, in the school office.

Sitting quietly in the corner, she was as sweet as a little rabbit. But the moment she opened her mouth, she left Bo Jinye livid. “Is something wrong with your ears, Mr. Bo, or is it your brain?”

No one knew that Cheng Xiaotang had been abused by her nanny as a child, leaving her with severe autism. She eventually recovered, but became a girl who was as quiet as a mouse when she wasn't speaking and could infuriate anyone the moment she opened her mouth.

One was a coldhearted family head who didn't believe in love. The other was a fake shut-in heiress with a tongue sharp enough to cut. They clashed after their nephews got into a fight at school. Like two points of a needle, neither would give an inch.

But little by little, Bo Jinye found his gaze drifting to the feisty young woman. When she smiled, her eyes shone so brightly, as if they could light up his entire dark world.

Later, he cornered her against a wall, his voice hoarse. “Cheng Xiaotang, do you have a grudge against me?”

She tipped her chin up defiantly. “I do.”

He gave a low laugh, a seriousness in his eyes he'd never shown before…

“Then let's hold that grudge for the rest of our lives. I never planned to let you go anyway.”
