[Calculated Seduction of an Older Man] [Sweet-Talking, Soft-Waisted Darling] [Both Chaste] [Sweet Romance]
Xia Yu awakened to the truth while forcing herself on the male lead.
In the book, she was the wicked ex-wife who drugged him and forced him into marriage.
The male lead only loved her cousin. After the wedding, he gave her the cold shoulder, cheated on her, and fathered an illegitimate child. Driven to madness, she forced her cousin to jump into a river. The male lead risked his life to save her. Her cousin survived, but lost the baby.
The male lead imprisoned her, seized her family fortune, sent her to a psychiatric hospital, and forced her to sign the divorce papers.
She couldn't bear the torment at the hospital.
She killed herself.
After awakening, Xia Yu decided to find a more powerful backer.
She pushed the male lead away and latched onto his older cousin.
That night, the powerful head of the He family gripped her waist and rasped, "A Yu, don't regret this."
Later, at a grand wedding, the male lead pleaded with red eyes.
"A Yu, I was wrong. Please come back to me."
The refined, stern man put an arm around the wife he had deliberately seduced into his arms. "Call her cousin-in-law."
The male lead, Xie Chenzhou, had bloodshot eyes.
He Ci had been proper and steady for almost thirty years, but as a young man, he lost his heart to the girl next door.
But she was his younger cousin's childhood sweetheart.
Then she became his younger cousin's fiancee.
He kept his desire in check and stayed overseas.
One chance encounter was enough to throw everything into disarray for an entire night.
She was being bullied, and he couldn't just stand by and do nothing.
Protect her, love her, cherish her.
Pin her on his lap and listen to her call him, "Brother A Ci…"
Once desire takes hold, it lasts until death.
