[My other novel, My Boss Is So Into Me, is now available. Please add it to your collection~]

Blurb:

After three years of intensive training, Zhu Tao returns home to find herself with an arranged fiancé.

Her scumbag fiancé sneers at her with a young star in his arms:

“I think figure skating is the perfect thing for you to devote your life to. Let's stop wasting each other's time.”

Her protests to her family are useless, so Zhu Tao has no choice but to steel herself and ask the man she's been afraid of since childhood for help.

The man is aloof and refined, and his presence is commanding. He responds to her request with a quiet:

“Fine.”

But then, her arranged fiancé is replaced by someone else.

...Wait!

She didn't come to ask him to marry her!

Rumor has it that powerful tycoon Li Houshan has a sweet, delicate young girlfriend. No one knows who she is, but a photo of them has spread widely across social media

In a lounge chair, a woman wearing a man's bathrobe lies in his arms. Her honey-colored skin makes hers look like snow, like milk and chocolate together.

The upper crust scramble to guess the young girlfriend's true identity, until the rumors eventually reach the scumbag's ears.

Li Houshan wraps an arm around Zhu Tao, dressed in her wedding gown, and gives his nephew a cold smile:

“This is your aunt by marriage.”

[Li Houshan first met Zhu Tao when he was nineteen. The little princess was so afraid of him that she hid from him at every turn. Now he's twenty-nine, and after gathering his courage for six years and going to great lengths, he has finally written Zhu Tao into his household register.]

Up next: My Boss Is So Into Me

1. Jiang Nan gets dumped, and the guy shamelessly makes a public declaration of love for his goddess.

As luck would have it, her direct boss changes, too.

He's stern-looking and ruthless in his work. Everyone is intimidated by him.

And most importantly, he's her high school crush.

Jiang Nan complains to her longtime online friend: “My scumbag ex is pursuing his goddess, while my crush has become my direct boss. He's cold and aloof, too.”

Online friend: “Then pursue him.”

Fu Shangran, the future heir to the Fu family, is strict and ruthless, and never gives anyone else a second glance. Jiang Nan is constantly on edge, suffering under his management. Everyone in the office who had designs on him backs off, until her ex, regretting everything, comes back to pester her.

Fed up, Jiang Nan casually points to a shiny black S-Class Mercedes. “See that? It's my boyfriend's car.”

As soon as she finishes speaking, the window slowly rolls down, revealing Fu Shangran's deep-set eyes and unapproachable expression.

The man wears an expensive handmade suit. He looks at her ex with disdain, then turns to Jiang Nan, whose eyes are wide with shock.

Fu Shangran raises an eyebrow, his voice calm. “Girlfriend, what are you doing here behind my back?”

2. Jiang Nan can't stay calm. She asks her online friend: “My boss chased off my scumbag ex and admitted I'm his girlfriend. What does he mean?”

Online friend: “Isn't it obvious?”

Jiang Nan: “?”

From then on, her online friend becomes her confidant.

Jiang Nan: “My crush bought macarons for the whole company.”

Online friend: “Could it be because of you that he treated the whole company?”

Jiang Nan: “?”

Jiang Nan: “Lucky me! My crush picked Dream Paris Winery, the place I've always wanted to visit, for our company outing!!!”

Online friend: “Take a guess why that was such a coincidence.”

Jiang Nan: “??”

Jiang Nan: “I accidentally broke my boss's cup. I heard it was really expensive. What should I do?!”

Online friend: “Make it up to him with your little pig mug.”

After her online friend's unhinged analysis, Jiang Nan gradually starts to feel that her crush really might be interested in her.

On their first date, while the foundation chairman comes over to greet Fu Shangran:

Jiang Nan: “Are you there, online friend? I'm on a date with my crush today, wearing an off-the-shoulder dress. Do you think he'll like it?”

At that very moment, the phone Fu Shangran has forgotten on the table lights up

Jiang Nan glances at it and turns to stone.

Why are her messages showing up on her boss's phone?!!!

That day, after the people at the next table leave, Fu Shangran turns around. He sees the phone on the table and Jiang Nan's stiff expression.

He braces one hand on the table and leans down.

The scent of jade dragon tea swirls around them. Jiang Nan has nowhere to retreat as he gently wipes the cream from the corner of her mouth.

He gives a low laugh. “I've been wrapped around your little finger for ages.”

The male lead has had a crush on her for years.
