Young Master, Stop Putting on an Act [GB]

[Strong-Willed, Max-Level Fighter Heroine x Petty, Peacock-Like Playboy Hero]

*One man turned straight

The thing Xu Lingyi regretted most in her life was revealing her secret about being into men to Deng Yu, whose devastatingly handsome face could captivate anyone.

Xu Lingyi had been honest with him, but Deng Yu took it as an insult. She was the steel mill's star operator, while he was a wealthy playboy who spent his days chasing women. To get back at her, Deng Yu had her fired.

Xu Lingyi packed her things and left, swearing she would never have anything to do with the young master again.

But who could have guessed that the young master who once hurled cruel words at her would turn into a clingy pest, relentlessly pursuing her and even getting her job back for her?

He chased away anyone who tried to get close to her, then clutched the hem of her clothes and swore, "Xu Lingyi, this time I mean it."

When Xu Lingyi rejected him again, Deng Yu shed all his pride and roared, "You can't make me fall in love with you and then turn around and throw me away!"

Xu Lingyi was completely bewildered.

Was this just another new trick from a playboy, or belated, sincere remorse?

After all, he was the one who had hurt her most, and now he was the one refusing to leave her alone.

Before Xu Lingyi could figure it out, the young master was already offering himself up in bed.

Xu Lingyi: Deng Yu, are you done acting yet?

Deng Yu: I'm not acting. I'm done for, and you're the one who did it.

Content warnings:

1. Lots of melodrama.

2. One man turned straight.

3. The heroine has a slight everyone-loves-her quality.

4. Both leads have sexual histories.

5. There's not much of a groveling-to-win-her-back arc.

6. The male lead has a pretty awful personality. He's a real spoiled rich kid.
