[High-maintenance, money-loving heroine + dark, unhinged hero + both virgins + one-on-one romance]
Shu Yao falsely claimed to be her savior to get close to a wealthy tycoon, then spent three months wildly swiping his cards and pocketing the cash, convinced her performance was flawless.
Until she awakened the ability to see emotions as colors and discovered that the “gentle sugar daddy” always had a roiling, dark red lust above his head.
Shen Tingji wasn’t a good man. He was a maniac.
When her real savior exposed her in public, the man took off his gold-rimmed glasses and smiled serenely. “I know. I’ve known since the first day.”
Shu Yao flew into a rage, grabbed the black cards, emptied the safe, and booked the earliest international flight.
In the middle of the night, the airport floodlights suddenly blazed to life.
Shen Tingji stood at the foot of the boarding stairs, playing with a ticket. “Yaoyao, I booked your return flight three months ago. Guess why?”
Because he never intended to let her go in the first place.
“Who else could genuinely love a little liar like you, who lies through her teeth?”
She thought she was escaping, but she’d been circling inside his cage all along.
