   [Self-recommendation welcome to read [send heart]] The first book features a powerful and influential male lead who is a seemingly refined but actually depraved villain, while the female lead is gentle, resilient, playful, and bright. The two are very different; initially, the male lead always says they're not a good match, but after being rejected, the female lead calmly moves on, remaining focused and ambitious in her career. Even after they get together, she maintains a detached attitude towards the relationship, remaining flexible and ready to withdraw at any time, always striving to be number one in her career. The male lead can't control his urges and is often jealous when she doesn't seem to value him. It's physically appealing, with lots of sweet and slightly bittersweet moments later on. The powerful man bows down for love; initially, she's cautious and doesn't like others having designs on her, but later showers her with jewelry, bags, support, and resources. The second book is super sweet, featuring a witty and witty secretary female lead versus a seemingly indifferent CEO who is actually her online love interest.
