Please Hold the Line When It Comes to Hugs

[January 23: My toothache made me write only part of this. It's too short, so I'll hold off posting until tomorrow, then update everything at once~!] When Yan Xixi met Jiang Chengming, he was the youngest professor at B University: aloof, elegant, and indifferent to fame and fortune. Six years later, when she saw him again, he was a legendary figure in the business world, ruthless and unstoppable. Years later, the Financial Times interviewed him. What had made a man who once wanted no part of the world transform into someone ambitious and sharp-edged? Jiang Chengming turned the ring on his left ring finger and gave a cool, faint smile. "Who doesn't want to lose themselves in pleasure at least once in this life?" The internet went wild with gossip. Who was the woman who had made this big shot lose himself in pleasure? * Radio host Yan Xixi became an online sensation thanks to her sweet voice. Rumor had it she behaved shamelessly, was desperate to become famous, and would do anything for money, including seducing men. A fellow host openly mocked her: "Her dream is to sit in a Maybach and cry, hehe~" One day, a short video started making the rounds online. In a dim parking lot, inside a silver Maybach, Yan Xixi was wrapped in the arms of a man whose face couldn't be seen, kissing him passionately. Her eyes were red-rimmed, and she really was crying in the Maybach :) The internet exploded. Her fellow hosts and their haters flooded the comments: "Yan Xixi succeeded in seducing an old man with her body." A week later, at Weibo Night A Maybach pulled up on the red carpet. Jiang Chengming personally opened the passenger door and escorted a woman out. He reached out with his ringed hand, gently lifted her delicate face, and kissed her tenderly. The woman was Yan Xixi! The flashing cameras and Weibo trending topics exploded at the same time! #Case closed: The woman who made the big shot lose himself in pleasure was her!# * Later, Yan Xixi nestled softly in Jiang Chengming's arms. He tilted her chin up with a fingertip, as if taking revenge, or perhaps tempting her, and murmured with a low laugh, "...I'll make you cry somewhere other than in my Maybach." #What do you do when your laid-back ex turns into a domineering CEO and a devil king?# #You are the fire that summons thunder. I'll burn my soul in the tide of passion I feel for you.# *Rekindled romance Coming soon: Sweet Ripe. Visit the author's page to save it to your collection After graduating from college, Mai Ya landed a job at a publicly traded company. The company boss had a face capable of bringing ruin to a kingdom. He was iron-fisted and ruthless, seemingly without a trace of human feeling. Yet he was always attracting admirers. Third-rate actresses constantly lingered outside the company, hoping to cling to the young master of the He family and shoot to fame. In the company's anonymous discussion group, Mai Ya posted anonymously [Isn't anyone going to do something about those women outside?] [Our scumbag boss does nothing but exploit honest employees like us?] A line of tiny text suddenly appeared at the bottom of the group: [Mai Ya has posted in the group for seven consecutive days and earned the [Master of Crosstalk] badge] Mai Ya: "…" ...How the hell did that reveal my secret identity? QAQ The whole company was in an uproar. Her coworkers offered their condolences: "You're done for! You got on the big boss's bad side. You're going to be fired!" * That night, Mai Ya lay on her bed, looking pitiful. Two buttons had come undone on her pajamas, revealing glimpses of her snowy-white skin. Sniffling, she wrote a letter of apology. At last, she finished and handed it over with a little sob. "P-please... please stamp it, Boss..." The man held a cigarette between his fingers, lounging lazily against the headboard. Instead of taking the letter, he pulled Mai Ya into his arms He kissed her red lips. "Stamped." *A cute girl with lots of secret identities that keep getting exposed x a big shot who quietly plays along with your act *A goofy, sweet romance #Getting a spanking when you get home is still better than being fired, QAQ# #Nice try, you think I won't recognize you just because you're wearing a secret identity? .jpg# #Nice try, I'd recognize you even without your secret identity! .jpg# Theme:
