Playing the Other Woman for Love

Not-so-cold CEO × not-so-adorably clueless girl

After one reckless night aboard a cruise ship, Huo Jinhan wakes to find nothing by his empty pillow but a one-yuan coin.

The young woman who barged into his life and shattered decades of restraint had settled their unexpected encounter with a single coin, just like that.

When they meet again at Misty Isle Amusement Park, she’s sitting on a swing. Later, she crouches beneath an umbrella to watch ants, then looks up and calls him, in a soft, sweet voice, “Uncle Huo.”

At her side is Mo Feng, who has been with her for years. Her childhood sweetheart has always treated her with gentle attentiveness, occupying every place beside her.

Everyone says Huo Jinhan is cold and chaste, with an almost pathological aversion to dirt and no weaknesses.

Only he knows that from the day he first saw Bai Xiaoning’s clear eyes, the iceberg frozen for so many years had already begun to melt, little by little, beneath the warmth and purity of her heart.

Knowing full well that she loves someone else, and that her childhood sweetheart’s place in her life is firmly secured, he still edges closer, knowing the road ahead will be full of thorns.

And yet he embraces it, helpless to do otherwise.

This fixation began with one unexpected night, and he’s willing to brave every obstacle, pursuing her day after day, year after year.
