He Came Like a Raging Inferno

Follow updates on Weibo: @Gu Zi Xing. Subscribe with caution. My suspense romance novel of the same genre, Until Daybreak, is complete! [1] To everyone else, Lu Zheng is cold and heartless, a man who never smiles. Only Yun Miao knows that isn't true. He washes her hair and carefully tests the water temperature. He shows up outside her school every night, right on time. He even tries to stop her from dating... When she was young, Yun Miao thought that kind of special treatment meant he liked her. She confessed her feelings, only to get an unexpected response: he personally sent her to the United States. When she finally woke from the dream... [2] A cool, beautiful woman recently joined the criminal investigation department. A graduate of MIT, she has solved one bizarre case after another with her AI facial recognition technology. The perpetually icy Lu Zheng knocked over the coffee cup beside him the moment he saw her. The young woman who had vanished for so long had come back. But even as Lu Zheng rejoiced, he heard her tell someone, “How could I possibly know Captain Lu?” Passing by, Lu Zheng kicked a chair out of his way with a bang... [3] Lu Zheng had been pursued by plenty of girls, but Yun Miao always nipped those romances in the bud. The first few times, she was discreet about it. The next time, she was brazen, and Lu Zheng caught on. “How many times has this been?” Yun Miao lowered her eyes and admitted it frankly. “I guess this is the third.” Beneath the dim light, he stepped closer and pinched her delicate, pale chin. “What, you want me to stay single?” Yun Miao wasn't afraid. She tilted her head up to look at him. “Maybe... I turned love into hate.” Lu Zheng's eyes darkened. “You still love me?” Yun Miao smiled. “Being narcissistic is an illness, Uncle Lu.” Lu Zheng said, “Miao Miao, I remember someone once promised not to let me grow old alone.” [4] Yun Miao has a robot. It can do the laundry and cook, and it can protect her. It also has a secret function: it can recognize Lu Zheng's face and record his heartbeat whenever he comes near. AI: “Master, when Lu Zheng carried you home last night, his heart rate was above normal. I've recorded it and categorized it as affection.” AI: “His heart rate just went up again. Did you kiss?” Yun Miao: “No. I bit him.” AI: “This time, I've categorized it as love. Master, he loves you.” Lu Zheng turned off the annoying AI and fixed his gaze on her. “What am I supposed to do? It's said everything I wanted to say.” Yun Miao: “Then say it again. Maybe I want to hear it.” [Reading Guide] 1. One-on-one romance, happy ending. 2. Nine-year age gap. 3.

Their only daughter, Ye Rou, is gentle and quiet, disciplined and restrained. She's never done anything out of line. At twenty, Ye Rou met a young man who was her complete opposite: Jiang Yao. He was brash, rebellious, carefree, and unruly, flaunting his bad behavior without a care... Everyone said he was beyond saving. Only Ye Rou thought he was a dazzling light, too bright to look at directly. She made a bold decision: she would pursue Jiang Yao. To turn down this well-behaved girl, Jiang Yao made things difficult for her in every way. One of his demands was, “You want to be my girlfriend? Get me a fully equipped WRC rally car. I want it tomorrow.” That night, Ye Rou secretly pawned her dowry to buy him a WRC car. The next day, she became his girlfriend. Ye Rou was always telling him what to do, and there were plenty of moments when the young man gave in... “I dyed my hair back. I used the darkest color at the salon.” “I quit smoking. Don't believe me? Kiss me and see. I promise I don't smell.” “Your man made it onto a professional team. Don't forget you promised me a date.” One day, he was drinking with his friends. He turned down the liquor and stuck to water. A friend teased him. “Yao, are you henpecked already?” He put on a tough act. “It's just for fun. Why take it seriously?” The shy, delicate girl who never even dared to look him in the eye suddenly walked up behind him and calmly said, “Jiang Yao, let's break up. I'm tired of this.” Jiang Yao poured himself a drink. This time, Ye Rou didn't stop him. Jiang Yao swallowed the ache in his chest and downed it in one go. “Fine. Just don't regret it.” * A few years later, Jiang Yao had become one of the country's best race car drivers, with countless trophies to his name. One day, a star mechanic joined the team.

Please, don't leave me...” * Ron, the racing god who dominates every WRC event, wears a helmet patterned with roses whenever he appears on the track.
