Charming hotel owner x composed tech tycoon
"Mr. Ling, please stop coming and going from my hotel as you please."
"Why didn't you tell me you were short on money?"
"Don't make me remind you again. We broke up."
"I don't accept that."
The smile Chu Tian had struggled to maintain finally crumpled. He runs a drone company, so what business does he have meddling in her affairs?
She looked at the little house, abandoned just across the wall, then at the citrus grove and restaurant, both on the verge of bankruptcy because of the pandemic. They were what her grandfather had left her.
What made him think she had another home with him in a city far away?
He never even came back for her!
Money, a company, a house, and even a person: Ling Fei had always held himself to high standards, using his scumbag father as a cautionary example. Little did he know that, in the blink of an eye...
He had already been kicked out of the running.
The girl before him had been part of his growing up. They had supported each other through their families' illnesses, aging, and deaths. It wasn't rebellion.
She had simply grown up.
Chu Tian (hands on hips, glaring): I've said it 99,999 times! We broke up!!!
Ling Fei (covering his ears, lecturing): The money is yours, the house is yours, and I'm yours too!
Chu Tian (angry enough to bite): Stop trying to be my dad.
Ling Fei (whimpering with delight): Let your scumbag dad tease you. Give me a hug!
