[A possessive, volatile female CEO vs. a restrained, devoted assistant; both hiding their identities + intense push and pull + healing + obsessive possessiveness + two equally strong leads]
Sheng Yan has never believed in love. She only believes in what she can hold in her hands.
So she kept Qin Du by her side, as her assistant, her bodyguard, and a means of venting her stress late at night.
She made him kneel, made him bow his head, and made sure she was the only person in his world.
Qin Du endured everything. The one thing he couldn't endure was her hurting herself.
The night she suffered gastric bleeding, he smashed up a drinking party and said, eyes red:
“I'm by your side, not to watch you kill yourself.”
It was the first time he had ever used the word “I” in front of her.
Only later did Sheng Yan learn that this man who never fought back was the Qin family's illegitimate son, an insider on the K-12 account, and entangled in her mother's fall from a building.
And for thirteen years, he had always stood half a step behind her.
The secrets came out, the ledger burned, and the Qin family made its move.
Everyone advised Sheng Yan to cut ties with him for good.
She held a cigarette to his lips in front of everyone and sneered:
“My people are no business of outsiders.”
“I knew who you were from the start. But you were always the only one I wanted.”
