He Cradled the Thorny Rose [Reborn]

"In this life, meeting love and meeting sex are nothing unusual. The hardest thing is meeting someone who understands you.", Liao Yimei

[Blurb]

Ye Susu is a rose with thorns.

Only one person saw the softness beneath them.

He lifted her gently in his hands,

even as her thorns left them drenched in blood.

[Excerpt 1]

They kissed in the rain, in the dark.

He gripped her chin and pressed the tall woman against the wall. "Miss Ye, you stole my heart."

"Take yours back in return."

[Excerpt 2]

His lips had turned purple with pain, yet he still struggled to reach out and wipe the tears from her fair cheek.

"Susu, don't cry."

[Excerpt 3]

Ye Susu held a cigarette between her fingers, softly breathing smoke from her red lips.

She wore a white coat, and though the weariness had yet to leave her face, her eyes shone with laughter. "I never thought I'd meet a man who would make me willingly give up my career, get married, and have children. Then I did meet him, but he told me, 'You don't have to.' He loves all of me, including my ideals and my pride."

"When no one else understood me, he was the one who reached out his hand."

[Excerpt 4]

He kissed her deeply and at length.

Gradually, her competitive streak kicked in. She rose onto her toes, her trembling hands gripping his collar.

The man let out a low laugh through his nose and pulled her closer.

She clung to him with her whole body. At 172 centimeters tall, she was like a sloth, and he was the tree she loved most.

Mo Wen suddenly let her go. He wiped a glistening strand from her lips with his fingertips, rubbed it gently, then lowered his eyes with a smile.

"You're a terrible kisser."

[Excerpt 5]

She turned around, pressed against Mo Wen's chest, and gently kissed his heart.

Mo Wen said, "I bought an entertainment company."

Ye Susu looked up in surprise and met a pair of lake-like eyes. "Why?"

"You said you wanted to be a movie queen."

Ye Susu couldn't believe it. "We've all been wrong about you." So this was the kind of CEO he was.

Mo Wen stroked her long, glossy hair. "Just a little indulgence."
