Burning Passion for You

1.

Qiao Ying, the daughter of Nancheng's richest man, was adored as she grew up. Even her acting career in the entertainment industry went smoothly.

But one day, the little princess hit a rough patch. Rumors swirled around her, and her fiance even cheated on her in public.

Her twentieth birthday party was plagued by one mishap after another.

Her bodyguard braved a torrential downpour and rushed back overnight from Jiangcheng, a thousand miles away.

At midnight, he carried her to the hospital stairwell. His eyes were red as he said hoarsely, “Qiao Ying, I'll marry you.”

Meeting his gaze, Qiao Ying smiled with lazy nonchalance. “Gu Chengye, is that fair to the woman you carry in your heart?”

The dignified man pinned her against the stairwell, one hand around her slender waist. His thin lips brushed hers as he murmured, his voice husky and dangerous, yet secretly tender, “Isn't the woman in my heart you?”

A few months later, photos of Qiao Ying kissing her own bodyguard in a parking lot topped the trending searches.

That night, she reposted the photos on Weibo without hesitation, adding: [My boyfriend. Mine.]

Her antis sneered: What's so special about being the daughter of the richest man? She still ended up with a pretty boy.

Later, Qiao Ying attended the Nancheng Tech Conference in a red dress, with her arm through Gu Chengye's.

Every reporter at the event was stunned.

The head of the Gu family, Gu Chengye, the CEO of Nancheng's largest AI company, was rumored to be ascetic and so obsessive and cold-hearted he was beyond compare. And he was Qiao Ying's bodyguard???

That night, Qiao Ying's former fiance came forward to share an interesting fact (and ride the wave of attention): He's also my uncle.

The antis, after learning the truth: Sorry, Mr. Gu, x99. I'm the pretty boy here. Please don't send anyone to secretly kill me. I beg you, QAQ.
