Possessive Devotion [A Powerful Family]

Everyone says Lu Qiaowan of Nancheng University is lucky. Before she has even graduated, she's set to marry Wei Chenghan, the young master of the Wei family, who has sponsored her studies.

A perfect match, the golden boy and girl. It should have been a union blessed by everyone.

But Gu Xiyuan, the crown prince of Nancheng's richest and most powerful family, insists on getting in the way.

On the day of her engagement ceremony, Gu Xiyuan wears a roguish smile, though his gaze is sharp. He drops two stacks of documents in front of Lu Qiaowan, pins her against the door, and kisses the edge of her ear.

"Sign the marriage contract. The Gu family will be yours, and you... will be mine."

Lu Qiaowan is so angry she slaps him across the face.

Even with a handprint on his cheek, the young master of the Gu family still refuses to let go. He licks the blood from his lip and leans close to her ear, enunciating each word.

"Wanwan, I'm going to steal you away, no matter what."

Blurb 2:

Wei Chenghan, the young master of the Wei Group, is caught by paparazzi cheating with a starlet, and it turns out he's had an illegitimate child for a long time.

Wei Chenghan even has the nerve to claim that Lu Qiaowan's family has fallen on hard times, and that she agreed to this ridiculous engagement just for the Wei family's money.

Everyone says Lu Qiaowan's Cinderella dream has shattered. Gossip magazines, delighting in her misfortune, hound her, hoping to photograph her at her lowest.

The crown prince of Nancheng, Gu Xiyuan, won't stand for it.

She's the apple of his eye, someone he holds in his hands for fear she'll fall and cherishes in his mouth for fear she'll melt. How could he let others make a laughingstock of her?

So Gu Xiyuan, unable to sit still, posts on Weibo: "You should be accountable for what you say. I offered the Gu family as her bride price and asked her to dump you, but she said no. You think she'd be interested in the few coins your family has?"

The comments from Young Master Gu beneath the post are even more explosive: [Yes, I tried to steal her away] [Mm, I wanted to be the other man] [But Wanwan doesn't want me QAQ]

Lu Qiaowan: I'll just watch you keep putting on an act...

[I would gladly die beneath the blade that gave her that breathtaking smile, become the one and only embodiment of her graceful bearing, and be a servant at the feet of her peerless beauty.]
