★Story Blurb★

Lin Xu is a high-end UI designer, commonly known as a graphic artist. The first time she met a client this difficult, it went like this:

The client said, "This image won't work. Do it again."

Lin Xu put on her professional fake smile, made the changes, and presented the result with both hands.

The client said, "Still not right. Something feels off."

Lin Xu pressed her lips together, snatched back the draft, and revised it again with a cold expression.

The client opened his mouth once more. "I think..."

Lin Xu dragged over a chair and sat down. She pulled out a cigarette and lit it. Blowing a cloud of smoke in the client's face, she twirled a fruit knife in her hand. "What do you think?"

The client died.

Shi Yan was an outstanding rich second-generation heir who had taken his family's subsidiary public on the Growth Enterprise Market. The first time he met an employee from a contractor company this brazen, it went like this:

Not only was she brazen, she turned around and confessed her "true feelings" for him behind his back. Shi Yan reasonably suspected she was trying to get his attention. And she succeeded.

(Lin Xu: ??? Sir, please come to your senses!!)

To get the young woman to be around him every day, Shi Yan swiftly acquired her company and confessed to her himself.

But the young woman turned into a tearful little thing and said, "Sob, sob, Mr. Shi isn't worth it. Look at how little I make each month, and how much I love buying designer brands. A woman as vain as me really isn't worth it!"

Then one night, Shi Yan saw the poor, short-tempered, brazen little fairy driving a Lamborghini Urus just like his, except in a different color, and leaving him in a cloud of exhaust.

Shi Yan: "…":)

[Real Groveling Ex Arc / Fake Raising-Up / Five-Year Age Gap]

Flirtatious, sharp-tongued, proud young master x soft on the outside, strong on the inside independent photographer

The first time Qiao Wen met Huo Ran, the man smiled with lazy arrogance and bent down as if lowering himself to her level. But his tone was condescending as he asked, "Kid, want to come home with me? I'll take care of you."

Qiao Wen had nowhere to go. She pressed her lips together, looked up at him, and nodded.

His friends teased him. How could a playboy who never let a woman get close to him become involved with a little girl like her?

Later, on the night Qiao Wen needed Huo Ran by her side most, she asked, "Brother Huo Ran, can you come home right now?"

Over the phone, Huo Ran answered lazily and teasingly, "Be good. Don't be so needy. I'll be back later."

Everyone jeered, "Young Master Huo, aren't you going home to comfort your little Qiao?"

Huo Ran replied calmly, "When you keep a pet, do you have to give it counseling, too?"

After hanging up, Qiao Wen gave a self-mocking laugh, packed her things, and disappeared without a second thought.

Everyone laughed and asked, "Young Master Huo, we heard your little Qiao ran away?"

The man's expression tightened a little. A cigarette glowed red between his fingers, but he still said, "That pampered little house cat has lived in comfort for so long. Once she suffers a little, she'll come back on her own."

Later still

At last, Huo Ran cornered her on a rainy night. Unable to tell whether the water on his face was rain or tears, he lowered his lashes and asked, "Who was it that said she'd never leave me?"

Qiao Wen scoffed. "Young Master Huo, you believe what women say? Did the rain run into your ears and reach your brain?"

The man fell silent for several seconds, then finally lost his composure. He held her in his arms, sounding pitiful as he murmured in her ear, "Yiyi, come home. I'm begging you."

Extra:

Huo Ran: "Kid, do you have a nickname?"

Qiao Wen shook her head.

Huo Ran patted her head. "Wenwen doesn't sound nice, and too many people call you Xiao Qiao. You were born on the first day of the month, so from now on, I'll call you Yiyi."

"I'm the only one allowed to call you that." Huo Ran smiled handsomely, his tone possessive.

Qiao Wen hid her excitement and nodded.

#You are the only one I want to kiss passionately in this life#, Huo Ran
