Untamed

The day the real heiress came home, I was kicked out and left drenched in the downpour like a drowned rat.

Gu Chengzhou came holding an umbrella and reached out to me, but I shoved him into the rain.

I scoffed at his advances: Even if I’ve fallen on hard times, you’re not the one who gets to swoop in!

He didn’t get angry or discouraged. He insisted on following me and staying in the urban village, and even got hurt driving off some thugs for my sake.

I was finally moved, but being touched isn’t the same as being in love. I racked my brains, trying to figure out how to gently tell him to move on instead of hanging himself from this one tree, when, somehow, my earbuds connected to his phone via Bluetooth.

Gu Chengzhou was on a call.

He said, “I’ve been fawning over Du Yunqi for years. I’m sick of it. The act of getting hurt was just a ploy. Once I get her, it’ll all be over.”

Theme: Even if you fall into the dust, never lose your pride.
