So I Choose the Green Tea

[Complete] The next book, Winter Gingerbread, is now available.

Warnings: It isn't very good. This is an anything-goes story, so I don't really recommend reading it... Neither lead is perfect; both have plenty of flaws.

Rising star Xia Sier is a superb actress with stunning looks, practically a walking traffic magnet. But just as she was reaching the top, a scheming little white lotus appeared.

The white lotus stole her spot on a dating show and broke up her on-screen couple... She copied Xia Sier's path and left her with nowhere to go!

Her manager found out that the white lotus had a powerful sugar daddy behind her.

The good news: The sugar daddy and the white lotus weren't together yet.

The bad news: The sugar daddy was Shen Zheng, Xia Sier's high school nemesis :)

Should she disappear from showbiz with her reputation intact, or play the tea-drinking schemer and turn the tables?

Xia Sier decisively chose the latter.

That day, in ten-centimeter heels, with a slim waist and alluring figure, she knocked on Shen Zheng's office door.

At first, she only meant to win Shen Zheng over and infuriate the white lotus.

But she hadn't expected her nemesis to have broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and such mesmerizing, deep-set eyes. His overflowing pheromones were impossible to resist. Damn, he'd turned the tables on her!

A few months later, their relationship was exposed. Xia Sier sat barefoot on the edge of the bed, happily following the gossip about herself, when Shen Zheng's phone rang. It was the white lotus!

Great, bring it on! When the call connected, the white lotus spoke in a pitiful voice:

"Brother, your sister-in-law has taken the bait, right? Can I quit the industry now? Boo hoo, playing the villain is so exhausting!"

The bedroom door opened, and Shen Zheng walked in wearing a bathrobe, frowning reproachfully. "Could you put your shoes on?"

Xia Sier: ...So I was scheming for nothing?

-- A peerlessly calculating male lead x a pampered young lady

-- Rekindled romance

-- Supposed enemies, secretly in love

Warnings:

1. Neither lead is perfect, and there will be no groveling redemption arc. The story will follow the direction laid out in the blurb.

2. If anything makes you uncomfortable, don't force yourself to buy the full version. You can drop the story without telling me; the author doesn't give refunds.

3. This is a story written to suit my personal tastes.
