A one-on-one ending, strong female lead, sexually inexperienced male lead, and a groveling pursuit after a breakup.
Whenever Xu Yingchu heard Xia Hanting's name, her first impression was that he was obedient, pure, and noble. Put less kindly, he was a sanctimonious do-gooder.
Yet whenever she looked at Xia Hanting's striking, foxlike face, all she wanted was to grind him under her heel, then cradle him in her hands and hide him away.
Xu Yingchu finally trapped Xia Hanting by her side.
She used to be the plain-looking girl in class whom anyone could push around, while he was the distant moonlight she had to crane her neck to see throughout her youth. Now she had built her fortune from scratch and ruled the entertainment industry. The first thing she did was investigate him, and as luck would have it, she learned that his family was in desperate need of money.
She gave him the coveted opportunities everyone dreamed of, a lavish, comfortable life, and the humiliation of being looked down on. She was addicted to the feeling of control. Watching the once-unattainable flower on a high peak lower his eyes and obediently listen to her demands filled her with satisfaction.
She thought, This must be love.
