A Gentle Landing

Major rewrite in progress~

Blurb One:

The first time Shi Jia met Qin Yu, she witnessed him take on more than ten people in a head-on fight without losing ground.

But the next time they met, he was her new deskmate.

The boy always wore a stern expression, his eyes never betraying a trace of emotion. He was so intimidating that people were afraid of him, but that didn't stop him from becoming one of the most sought-after boys at No. 3 High School.

He paid all of Shi Jia's tuition. She was deeply grateful, until she saw the wicked smile curl his lips as he said, "Don't go thinking I'm a good person."

No one at school believed Qin Yu could fall for a withdrawn, bland girl like Shi Jia, but he went out of his way to protect her.

He teased her and bullied her, but she remained so gentle she seemed to melt into water.

Qin Yu refused to believe it. He cornered her by the window, his thin lips brushing back and forth against her earlobe. The girl whimpered like a little kitten, eyes red as she called him a sly wolf!

He smiled, abandoning his usual aloofness. "Don't cry. Big brother will take care of you."

One day, Qin Yu went to a nightclub and saw Shi Jia sitting in the middle of a private booth. Her makeup was exquisite, her gaze distant, her allure irresistible. In that moment, Qin Yu finally realized that Shi Jia wasn't a cat, but a dangerous wolf.

"If no one else will care for you, then I'll do it!"

He gave her the only tenderness he had in his life.

Blurb Two: Young and wealthy, CEO Qin was famous at the company for being cold and unfeeling. But recently, people noticed that he was even stricter and harsher than usual with Shi Jia, the new employee.

He often kept her working until midnight, and especially after a man showed interest in her, he put her through hell.

One day after work, the two met in the elevator. CEO Qin cornered her against the wall and kissed her like a madman, only for her to bite him until he bled.

"You've got a mean bite, don't you?"

Shi Jia gripped his waist and squeezed a little harder. "I'm even meaner than that. You're the one who said so!"

Qin Yu smiled and clasped her hand. "Who said that? You're so gentle!"
