Tender Affection

[Sweet romance!! Gentle, beautiful heiress × possessive young heir to a corporate empire]

[1]

On the first day after graduating from a prestigious university, Wen Haohao started her new job at ZL Group. As it happened, the group's newly appointed vice president was also starting work that day.

When she entered the company's lobby, she spotted the vice president walking toward the elevators in the distance. He had a straight, impressive figure, and she knew him: Lu Zhou, the group's heir, and her upperclassman from high school.

On her fifth day at work, just before closing time, Wen Haohao suddenly received a text: "Long time no see, Haohao. It's Lu Zhou. Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together."

Lu Zhou was born to shine, heir to one of the country's most elite families, with a cool and restrained air. Everyone said he was devoted to work, uninterested in women, and incredibly hard to win over.

What they didn't know was that there had always been a beautiful girl in his heart.

The first time he saw that radiant, lively beauty standing tall outside their high school, his heart skipped a beat.

If he hadn't spent the past few years recovering from health problems in the capital, he would have pursued her long ago and made her his.

Wen Haohao never dared to entertain any thoughts about Lu Zhou.

He was incredibly handsome, but his aura was so cold that it intimidated her. She liked gentle men, not men who gave off such a chilly air.

But their families had arranged a marriage, and she had no choice but to be with Lu Zhou. They agreed to a one-year contract marriage, with no interference in each other's lives afterward.

After moving in with him, Wen Haohao discovered that this refined, cool young man was warm and easygoing in private.

He also led a clean, orderly life. When he wasn't traveling for work or attending social events, he went straight home after work.

Scheming Boss Lu: The girl he'd always longed for was finally by his side. Of course he'd treat her with the utmost tenderness and hurry home every day.
