It was originally from another platform where it was a paid service, so I tried reading it on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform), and I was surprised to find it available there.

    Age gap + fake uncle and niece + both virgins. "Everyone in the city knows that the rose raised by the head of the Bai family is untouchable." She thought she would always be pampered like a princess by him. Bai Qingqian's world, however, was completely ignited by Bai Yusheng on that chaotic rainy night. He kissed the cinnabar mole on her waist, his fingertips burning: "..." Her panic was completely swallowed by his forceful kiss, leaving only his hoarse command ringing in her ears: "From now on, you are only allowed to call me Yusheng." A night of debauchery, the first light of dawn. The man she secretly relied on and looked up to, the man who gave her the ultimate tenderness and left her with an unforgettable night. Suddenly changed. For five whole years, he exiled her to England. Five years later, Bai Qingqian returned to China. Bai Yusheng had become the 27th head of the Bai family, with immeasurable wealth and deep-rooted power. This name had become synonymous with power and wealth, able to turn the world upside down with a flick of his wrist, the Bai Master whom everyone in the city revered. A grand business banquet. A reporter boldly pressed, "You've reached the pinnacle of your career but remain single. Are you waiting for someone?" Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, his deep gaze pierced through the clamor and precisely locked onto her. His thin lips parted slightly, and his deep, powerful voice carried throughout the venue via microphone, brimming with possessiveness: "Yes, I'm waiting for my little girl. Have your fun and come home." "And..." "Don't run away, my little rose whom I raised with my own hands." That night, the city's night sky was ablaze with magnificent fireworks. Amidst the dazzling brilliance, each stroke of the pen boldly wrote Bai Qingqian's name. The world was in an uproar. The door to the penthouse suite closed, and Bai Yusheng forcefully pulled her into his arms, his voice low and husky as punishment: "Qianqian, you've misunderstood me for five years... This debt will be settled tonight."
