A Little Too Enamored

(My next novel will be Scheming to Win Her Heart. A glamorous director x a true wolf of a young master who pretends to be a well-behaved lamb. Please add it to your favorites! Blurb at the end!)

As the most obedient and sensible young lady in a wealthy family, the two most outrageous things Shi Nian had ever done were probably:

1. Give up her family's inheritance and move to a little courtyard on the outskirts of the capital, becoming a food blogger.

2. Let the boy she met by the sea at eighteen, a complete stranger, live in her heart for eight years.

After that, she left romance behind and lived a simple, carefree life with nothing but good food for company.

Ji Nange, the eldest young master of the Ji family, was an oddity among the young gentlemen of the capital for two reasons:

He voluntarily gave up his family's inheritance, abandoned his aristocratic fiancee, whom he'd never met, and ventured alone into the entertainment industry.

Among young masters who embraced pleasure, wine, and women, he was proper and self-disciplined, abstaining from food and desire. They nicknamed him the "Buddha of Food and Beauty."

His eyes held only the world before him and his career. He had no interest in romance.

*

A food variety show brought the two back together. They should have been bound tightly by their engagement, yet each had gone their own way.

From growing misunderstandings to melting ice and thawing snow,

From barren wasteland to flowers blooming through all four seasons.

Later, everyone witnessed the once proud and aloof eldest young master of the Ji family shatter his pride, descend into the mortal world, and kneel on one knee to reverently kiss the back of Shi Nian's hand.

Their jaws hit the floor, but their eyes brimmed with joy!

The "Buddha of Food and Beauty" was no more. The capital had gained a doting husband!

In a world of countless distractions, I am captivated by you alone. From now on, you are all I see, and all that matters to my heart! - Ji Nange

Both are virgins, one-on-one romance, happy ending, a soft and sweet little treat.

Blurb:

Wen Yu is a talented director in the entertainment industry, born into a scholarly family and blessed with striking beauty.

Lu Nanxian is the playboy crown prince of the capital's entertainment empire, a womanizer who attracts admirers wherever he goes.

They grew up together and were betrothed as infants. Many people say Wen Yu is nothing but a canary dependent on Ji Nanxian.

Even Lu Nanxian thinks so, which is why he never bothers to hide his flirtations and affairs with other women from her. Rumors about him are everywhere.

"Without me, Wen Yu is nothing!"

He once joked to someone, not caring in the least about Wen Yu's dignity.

Wen Yu smiled calmly, neither arguing nor fighting back.

But then she turned around and spent the night in a love nest with a newcomer to the entertainment industry.

Everyone said Wen Yu had fallen for someone else and was about to leave Lu Nanxian, her powerful benefactor.

Lu Nanxian heard the news, lit a cigarette, and sneered dismissively. "She's just playing hard to get to make me jealous."

Later, Wen Yu really did leave for good and returned the token of their engagement.

Lu Nanxian panicked. He drank himself into a stupor all night, his eyes red as he knocked on her door.

He was ready to pour out his belated feelings, but a handsome young man in pajamas opened the door.

His collar hung open, love bites boldly visible on his pale collarbone. "Looking for Sis? She hasn't woken up yet. I wore her out last night..."

Lu Nanxian clenched his fists, eyes red, but the young man pinned him against the wall and let out a low, vicious laugh. "Jealous of her? You're not worthy!"

He had no idea that the canary he so despised was a treasure Jin Sinian had spent ten years cherishing in the palm of his hand.

*

Wen Yu thought Jin Sinian was just a newcomer to the entertainment industry who needed to use sex to get ahead.

A well-behaved, sensible, obedient little lamb who would do whatever she asked.

Until one day, she saw him pin Ji Nanxian to the wall and beat him, a murderous look in his eyes.

Only then did she understand. He wasn't a docile little lamb at all. He was a wild, bloodthirsty wolf.

"Don't be scared, Sis. I won't be fierce with you. I'll behave!"

The day Wen Yu's career collapsed, everyone abandoned her.

Even Jin Sinian disappeared without a trace.

Everyone said Wen Yu had fallen into ruin because she left Lu Nanxian, and that Jin Sinian was a fair-weather friend who ran away as soon as disaster struck.

Who could have guessed that three days later, dozens of luxury cars worth tens of millions each would line up outside Wen Yu's home?

Jin Sinian, once an unknown newcomer who had to rely on his looks to get ahead, had suddenly become the mysterious heir to one of the capital's top families.

He personally wrote Wen Yu a marriage offer worth hundreds of billions, asking her to become Mrs. Jin.

Later, at the Academy Awards for Best Director, Jin Sinian had a priceless crown made to celebrate Wen Yu.

"I only wish to spend my life crowning you and serving as your most devoted believer!"
