[Alluring, calculating beauty + self-serving pragmatist + a battlefield of male rivals + powerful men bowing their heads + all male leads are virgins + extreme romantic tension + win-her-back romance + underdog rises]
A wild weed growing in the muddy depths of the mountains, with neither money nor influence, is supposed to be bullied and mocked.
Jiang Jiyue: “What kind of logic is that?”
She is determined to climb higher. If she can't open the door to the world of the powerful, she'll climb over it.
She and her mother depend on each other, enduring the cold stares and mockery of those around them. She wants everything that seems desirable, and she intends to get it all.
An outstanding competition result catches the eye of a professor, gentle to the core. He appreciates her and offers her a ladder to success: “I'll give you what you want, and you have to give me what I want.”
“No feelings involved, just an experience.”
Jiang Jiyue: “What's the catch?”
Only later does she realize that this supposed appreciation was nothing but a game to vent his spite, and that he sees her as a tool to use as he pleases.
The powerful make a game of it and choose her as their target?
Fine. Then she'll make those aloof men descend into the mortal world and taste the kind of love that haunts their dreams.
Who knew their numbers would keep growing, and that they'd become more and more obsessed...
The self-important, gentle professor corners her on a shadowy path on campus: “Why can't it be me?”
The sinister man from the leading law firm whispers in her ear in the dead of night: “We're the ones whose souls resonate.”
The powerful head of a business empire abandons his former airs and kneels by her skirt: “Baby, don't leave me...”
A big shot with one foot in the underworld and the other in the law: “Let me be your family. I'll protect you.”
A gifted medical genius, speaking as a friend: “I could be her father.”
A coming-of-age story
Great read! The female lead is incredibly intelligent; I feel like I can learn so much from her. What I love most about this book is the female lead's personality—decisive, shrewd, and always considering both sides—it's totally my type! Every male lead is also very distinctive. Author, keep it up! I need more updates!!
There are many uncomfortable descriptions in the beginning. Although I've only read four chapters, I'll mark them here: A male character asks another male character (I don't know if he's a male guest) if they want to see some new guests; there's also someone smoking and drinking (I don't know if he's a male guest); and there's someone with their arm around a female companion's waist—I don't…
It's pretty good, looking forward to the rest of the story 🥰🥰 Even now, Shen Shixu is still number one in my heart. No wonder he works in a profession that relies on his brain; his thinking is so sharp, hahaha! "Boyfriend" is just a euphemism; he doesn't care. I'm dying of laughter. As expected, having no bottom line leads to getting even more, number one, number one! 🤭🤭
This is amazing! It's a show definitely worth watching. The content is fresh and engaging. It's so captivating, you can't get enough! 🥰🥰🥰
