[One-on-One Romance] [Powerful Man Bows His Head] [Rivalry for Her, and Plenty of It] [He Chases Her to No Avail]
[Proud, Reserved, Love-Struck CEO vs. Clear-Headed, Rebellious Heiress]
After Shen Xining has been abroad for three years, her fiance, Gu Chengmu, cheats on her with the real heiress.
Fine. If you can play around, why can't she?
Shen Xining turns around and grabs a man with striking features, broad shoulders, and long legs.
He has a top-tier face, an enviable physique, and impeccable service.
She thinks their encounter is just a brief fling, but the next day her phone rings.
The man's voice on the other end is low and magnetic. "Congratulations."
Shen Xining is baffled. "Congratulations on what?"
"Congratulations, Miss Shen, on seeing the light and leaving the dark behind." He speaks unhurriedly. "After all, being the other man does weigh on my conscience."
Shen Xining's mouth twitches. What is this guy rambling about?
He continues, his tone carrying a hint of genuine distress. "Honestly, sometimes I really envy Gu Chengmu. He can be fickle and have two women at once. I can't do that. Once I fall for someone, I won't change my mind for decades."
Everything has happened so fast that Shen Xining hasn't had time to process it.
Gu Tingshen has already pulled her into his arms, his lips brushing her ear.
"Don't you think it'd be pretty satisfying to make him kneel and call you Great-Aunt?"
Satisfying? Shen Xining's scalp prickles. Who could possibly be more satisfying than him?
Wait a minute!
What did he say?
Great-Aunt?
So... she slept with her scumbag ex's granduncle?!
