   A seemingly aloof but actually cunning doctor versus a subtly scheming sweet girl – a sweet story with no angst. Chu Yuan first met Ruan Li, who was fostered by him, at the hospital. A frail, sickly beauty, her radiant complexion was breathtaking. Her eyes were brimming with tears, and her slender fingers tugged at his clothes. "Dr. Chu, I'm afraid of pain, please be gentle." The second time was in the Chu family's peach orchard, under the peach trees, when he was scratched on the neck by a cat. Ruan Li, dressed in a cheongsam, with delicate eyebrows and red lips, and a graceful figure, gently touched his neck. "Brother, does it hurt?" Chu Yuan's brows were deep and unfathomable, showing no emotion and remaining completely unresponsive to her approach, almost coldly indifferent. Everyone knew that Chu Yuan, this medical genius, was known as a celestial being. He was gentle and refined, a gentleman like an orchid, admired by countless women, yet none dared to approach him. In his eyes, there were only patients, not women. Ruan Li painstakingly climbed onto the coattails of this powerful figure, becoming his precious 'little sister.' Unexpectedly, beneath the man's gentle and refined exterior lay a cunning and ruthless wolf. Chu Yuan embraced her, his thin lips brushing against her earlobe, seemingly teasingly: "You can have a relationship, but only with me." A pear, juicy and sweet, one bite and you'll find it unforgettable. Having given her undivided affection, she was willing to give her all for the rest of her life.
