Come On, He’s Begging Me to Get Back Together!

[Down-on-her-luck heiress x newly rich entrepreneur]

Midnight is when Shi He is most exhausted.

She's the star attraction at a famous club in City A. Countless people come every day just for her, but beneath the flashing lights and swirling colors of the dance floor, she feels nothing.

When her coworker tells her that a big shot has arrived tonight, her hand speeds up as she pours the drinks.

Then the door opens, and she sees the big shot's face.

Sheng Chizhong is dressed in a suit, leaning against the sofa. Half his face is hidden in shadow; the other half is cool and strikingly handsome.

He looks just as she remembers, but Shi He still feels a shiver run down her spine.

The room is dim. She wants to avoid him at all costs and deliberately looks away, but he fixes his gaze on her. "When you just mentioned that dead ex, did you mean me?"

"Or is there someone else besides me?"

The room falls silent. No one had ever imagined that Shi He and Sheng Chizhong, the rising business tycoon, had a history.

From then on, the days passed, and Sheng Chizhong haunted her, showing up almost every day.

One day, a coworker finally couldn't resist asking about it. Shi He only replied airily, "There's no chance."

But that night, starlight fell through the window, illuminating the faint red marks on her body. Sheng Chizhong leaned against the side of her neck, breathing unevenly, then bit her shoulder as he panted.

"Take this seriously."

Suddenly, he closed his eyes and sighed as if defeated.

"Were your exes better than me?"

Shi He snapped back to her senses, grabbed his wrist, and briskly slapped him. Seeing his dejected expression, she scoffed. "What are you pretending for, Sheng Chizhong?"

"Two years ago, didn't you say you'd never fall for me in this lifetime?"

1.

During Shen Yinci's first week at Qigang Detective Agency, she received an incredibly difficult assignment: investigate Huo Lianfang.

Huo Lianfang was the only son of the wealthy Huo family of Qigang and the current CEO of their group. He was notorious and had committed every sort of evil. Countless people had tried to bring down the Huo family by going after him, but no one had ever succeeded.

But Shen Yinci was still in her new-hire probation period, and she refused to believe he was untouchable.

So she eagerly went to stake out the place, only to be forcefully kissed by a flirtatious pretty boy.

Shen Yinci, who had spent the first twenty years of her life diligently keeping herself in line, had been forcefully kissed!

Even if the man had been drunk, even if he was handsome, even if he worked for Huo Lianfang...

Wait?

Shen Yinci wiped her face and persuaded him to become her informant. She thought it would take a lot of effort, but the man agreed without hesitation.

Only, the information he provided was all very strange.

Huo Lianfang just bought a fully loaded, all-black 911. His taste speaks for itself.

Huo Lianfang got a haircut. Handsome.

The Huo family is looking for a daughter-in-law. The betrothal gifts start at 200 million.

After the investigation was put on hold, the two lost touch. That same month, the news of Shen Yinci's engagement to her friend Zhou Heng appeared in the papers.

Zhou Heng took her to a dinner party. When the private room door opened, he said, "This is Mr. Huo, the man I often tell you about. I think you've misunderstood him. He's a very straightforward person."

Shen Yinci looked up and froze.

Huo Lianfang held a position of power. His familiar, alluring eyes were captivating, and beside him sat a tea set worth over a million. He casually tossed it aside.

"Zhou Heng, you're a lucky man," he said by way of congratulations.

She made an excuse to leave, but at the stairwell she was suddenly pulled away. All around them was darkness and silence; the only clear sound was Huo Lianfang's drawn-out sigh.

"That's cruel... You told me to go straight, but it turns out you just wanted to go out and have fun with someone else."

He covered her mouth and said with a laugh, "Don't rush. I've kept you company for so long. I deserve a little something sweet, don't I?"
