Untainted

Cheng Buran was supported by Qin He from childhood, and in her sophomore year of college, she became his girlfriend.

Qin Shiyan was Qin He's son, then in middle school. Whenever Cheng Buran visited the Qin family mansion, the boy would look at her in a way that made her deeply uncomfortable.

She hadn't stolen anything or broken up a relationship, and Qin He had been widowed for years. He was single and treated her well, so she had a clear conscience.

Later, the Qin family went bankrupt. Qin He fled overseas, disgraced, never to return.

Cheng Buran got into graduate school, and after graduating, easily found a teaching job at a private university.

One day, she received a call from the police station and rushed over, where she found Qin Shiyan, now a high school senior. He'd been arrested for fighting. Blood covered him, and his eyes were like a wolf cub's.

No one was looking after him. He was running with the wrong crowd, and it was anyone's guess whether he'd even graduate.

Cheng Buran took him back to her small one-bedroom apartment.

Her sofa became Qin Shiyan's bed.

Qin Shiyan was a wicked little thing. He deliberately called her "stepmom" over and over, each time making it sound like an insult. Cheng Buran was a mild-mannered woman and never lost her temper with him.

Later, Qin Shiyan rebuilt the family fortune, grew his business bigger than his father's, and became a top tycoon who could control the winds and clouds of Shencheng.

Cheng Buran remained an ordinary university lecturer.

One day, she went on a blind date. They both thought it was going well and planned to keep seeing each other.

Then Qin Shiyan strode into the restaurant, his face grim, and pulled Cheng Buran outside. In the empty corridor, he pinned her against the wall and said, struggling to keep his emotions in check:

"I've already surpassed my father."

"When will you finally look back at me?"

Mild-mannered woman vs. mad wolfish younger man

P.S. Older woman-younger man romance.

The female lead is not a virgin; the male lead is. Stepmom fiction, so don't read if that's not your thing.

The leads only get together after she has ended her relationship with the male lead's father!
