[Younger man and a striking difference in build × contrasting personalities] [Cold, gloomy, cruel, and unhinged × gentle, sweet-tempered, and soft-spoken senior girl]
A cruel, brooding man pursues his wife + reunion after a long separation + indulgent, sweet romance + shamelessly doting flirtation + a little face-slapping in the entertainment industry
Wen Tao came from an ordinary single-parent family. Gentle and naive, she had never dated before. Her first relationship was with Zhong Yuechi, the second young master of the Zhong Group: a boy who was both cold and arrogant, and cruelly mischievous.
The wicked, flamboyant boy became a cruelly devoted dog at her side. He tattooed her name on his lower abdomen, took her hand and pressed it there, telling her he belonged to her and she could never leave him. Every night, he gazed at her with dark eyes, chuckling as he coaxed her again and again: “Baby, you’re so good...”
Wen Tao thought their romance could remain flawless and happy forever. Then she learned that it had begun with a dirty bet, and she coldly demanded a breakup.
After they split, Zhong Yuechi’s parents sent him overseas. When her mother fell ill, Wen Tao entered the entertainment industry to earn money. The once-intimate lovers lost touch, returned to their own lives and social circles, and set off toward entirely different worlds.
When they met again, Wen Tao was still struggling to get by in show business, a little-known nobody whom everyone looked down on. Zhong Yuechi had returned to China to inherit the family business and was now an investor in her new drama.
Wen Tao wanted to pretend she didn’t know him and keep her distance, but Zhong Yuechi clung to her like a ghost, pressing her at every turn. Behind the crew’s backs, he pinned her against a wall and pulled her into an inescapable, passionate embrace, closing in on her with force before humbly begging for her forgiveness.
Only after Wen Tao’s relationship with Zhong Yuechi came to light did the actors and staff who had looked down on her realize that this girl with an unremarkable background was the person the second young master of the Zhong Group treasured above all else.
