Tempt Him

[Flirtatious noblewoman who knows how to ensnare hearts x restrained, impeccable beauty on a high pedestal] [Teacher and student | Power imbalance, genderswapped version | The powerful one bows their head | Chasing the wife to the crematorium] Li Fuzhao has always thought her teacher, a man of great composure and impeccable manners, treats everyone with propriety. Yet he goes out of his way to care for her. How could she not fall for him? On top of that, he comes from a distinguished family and is handsome. He would certainly make a fine husband. But how can she win his heart? A popular romance story says that pursuing a man is as easy as breaking through a layer of gauze. First, make physical contact, then seal your love with a kiss, and after that, it's all passion and pleasure... Forget it. I'll learn as I go. And so the young lady's behavior grew ever more outrageous. On her birthday, she drank to summon her courage and confessed her feelings to him. Instead, he coldly rejected her. He even said that his past kindness and care had been at his mother's request. Her hand had rested against his chest, and beneath her palm, his heart pounded like a drum. Hearts don't lie. She didn't believe a word he said! If he wouldn't accept her tenderness, then she'd simply seize the moon and pluck the stars by force. One day, an opportunity presented itself. She found him injured and took him away, keeping him prisoner in a cave so he would belong to her alone! Surely now he'd have to behave.
