Be Gentle When You Spoil Me

1.

Luo Ying is engaged to Gu Shengze, the youngest son of the prominent Gu family.

At the Gu matriarch's birthday banquet, Gu Shengze announces on his own that he is calling off the engagement, humiliating Luo Ying in front of everyone.

"You're a good-for-nothing who spends all day at home playing on the computer. If I married you, people would laugh at me for marrying an utterly useless woman who has achieved nothing."

That's what Gu Shengze says as he puts an arm around his first love, who's just returned from abroad.

Luo Ying neither cries nor makes a scene. She takes off her engagement ring, throws it in the trash, and walks away.

.

Not long afterward, Luo Ying attends a TV station's annual gala in style as "Ying Lai Shi," a top voice actor in the online dubbing scene. In a red dress, she is both dazzlingly alluring and fresh-faced, earning praise from netizens as "the number-one beauty who is both sultry and sweet." Her popularity sets the internet ablaze.

.

Gu Shengze, who attends the gala with his first love, can't take his eyes off the breathtaking Luo Ying onstage. His thoughts are already wandering.

After a month of tossing and turning without sleep, Gu Shengze finally can't hold back and calls Luo Ying in the middle of the night.

"Yingying... I regret it. Will you marry me?"

But a man's deep voice answers him.

"No. My Yingying is asleep. Don't disturb her."

"...What?"

Gu Shengze is so startled that he drops his phone.

Of all the elders in the Gu family, Luo Ying is most afraid of Gu Siyu, Gu Shengze's uncle.

Whenever Luo Ying goes with Gu Shengze to visit the Gu family, she is always too timid to look Gu Siyu in the eye.

Gu Siyu knows exactly why she is so afraid of him. When Luo Ying was fourteen, she quarreled with her parents, ran off to a bar to drink and play a game of truth or dare, and got caught red-handed by Gu Siyu.

The little girl, as if facing her doom, grabbed his tie and stood on tiptoe to kiss him.

It was only because she'd been dared to do it.

But Luo Ying's thoughtless gesture left an indelible rose-shaped mark on Gu Siyu's heart.

.

After the gala, Luo Ying accidentally gets drunk. When she wakes up the next day, she discovers that she spent the whole night sleeping with her head on Gu Siyu's arm?

"U-uncle... I... you..."

Luo Ying stammers.

"What did you call me? Hmm?"

Gu Siyu looks completely at ease.

"I called you Uncle..."

"That guy called off your engagement. Stop pretending we're family. Who's your uncle? Don't be afraid. I'll marry you."

"..."

Gu Siyu has a fearsome reputation. He's ruthless and decisive, and no one can take what he wants away from him.

Luo Ying never expected that one day this cold-blooded Gu family shark would turn his claws on helpless little her?
