Jiao Jiao [Republican Era]

September 24 screenshot The seemingly unassuming Miss Qu x the cold-hearted Major General Xie * Qu Yuqiao and Xie Chenrui knew that everything from their first meeting to their growing understanding of each other had been carefully orchestrated, full of schemes and mutual deception. She joined forces with Xie Chenrui, who planned to reshape Jingcheng's power structure, to find the person who had murdered her mother. They hit it off at once. Jingcheng's reporters had lost count of how many times they'd photographed the two of them looking utterly smitten, gazing at each other with tender affection. Only they knew that neither of them had ever crossed the line. . Xie Chenrui never expected to fall into the trap called Jiaojiao. He stepped into it without a second thought, and now he had only two choices: submit to her or conquer her. The first time that dignified man softly called her Jiaojiao, the desire to conquer that had lain dormant in Qu Yuqiao for more than a decade surged forth. She remembered her mother's words perfectly: men are beasts who use sweet talk to win people's hearts. Never let their appearances fool you. So before she fell for him, she would use a sugar-coated barrage to win him over. Reader's Guide and Content Warnings: 1. Set in an alternate version of Republican-era China.
