A Little Sweetness

Everyone says the illegitimate daughter the Jian family brought home is gentle and well-behaved, like a true lady.

Only Xu Ze knows the wild passion hidden beneath her sweet exterior. She's sweeter than honey, stronger than liquor, and wilder than a wild horse. Especially late at night, when she climbs through the window barefoot and into his bed...

Jian Ning: "Your security is terrible. I climbed right over the wall on that side, and you don't even close this window when you sleep at night."

Xu Ze: "I leave it open for your convenience."

After work, criminal investigation captain Ji Yao returned home and knocked on the door of his new neighbor across the hall. "Doctor, I got a little cut on my finger. It really hurts!"

Han Xi: "Sorry, Officer. A forensic pathologist only sees dead people."

Ji Yao leaned against the doorframe. "I'm dead."

Han Xi watched him perform without expression. "Cause of death?"

Ji Yao grinned. "I was slain by the beauty of a certain gorgeous woman."

Han Xi slammed the door shut. "Get lost!"

Much later, one day, he stood in front of her. With a bang, a bullet struck his chest.

His breath was faint, but his smile was gentle. "It doesn't hurt, and I'm not going to die. Don't cry."

Theme: Love and redemption.
