What Should I Do If My Boyfriend's Buddy Has a Crush on Me?

Among her boyfriend Li Xu's childhood friends, Baozhu feared Zhao Ting the most, because she'd offended him when she first entered the industry.

At that fateful banquet, she'd stood up for a friend and insisted on teaching him a lesson.

But he kept his head lowered the entire time, never said a word, and simply listened to her accusations with a faint smile. Then he glanced at her. "Finished?"

As the rich young heirs filed out, they all looked at her like she was a brave warrior.

Only later did she learn that he was an influential young man from Beijing's elite circle, with an even more powerful background than her boyfriend. He'd let her off that day purely because she wasn't worth arguing with.

Yet her boyfriend used his connections to get her into Zhao Ting's S+ production.

To her surprise, Zhao Ting treated her kindly. She messed up the same scene more than ten times, and he still calmly coached her through another take.

One day, he caught her fooling around and building a snowman on set. She looked nervous, and everyone else held their breath, but he only smiled and lowered his eyes as he took the documents from his secretary. "Don't let it happen again."

At first, she thought he was being nice because of her boyfriend.

Until a colleague pursued her, and Zhao Ting drove him off with a cutting remark; until her boyfriend couldn't make it to her birthday, and Zhao Ting showed up composed as ever, letting everyone mistake him for her boyfriend without correcting them; and then her boyfriend began breaking dates again and again, and even stopped replying to her messages...

It turned out he was already engaged, and his wedding was just around the corner.

She couldn't accept it. That night, she called Zhao Ting, her voice barely audible. "Do you still want me?"

He paused, then replied in a deep voice, "Do you know what you're saying?"

Baozhu could picture his deep, dark eyes fixing on her with possessive intent, as if she were his prey. Her heart began to tremble uncontrollably.

Later, her ex regretted everything and came to her apartment in the snow.

Baozhu had just started to soften when she saw Zhao Ting standing in the bedroom doorway, hands tucked in his pockets, watching coldly. "Why aren't you going downstairs, Xie Baozhu? Your darling's here for you."

At first, Zhao Ting couldn't understand why Li Xu liked Xie Baozhu.

She was beautiful and alluring, but a genuine airhead, and especially delicate. Even a scrape on her finger was enough to make her take a picture and send it to her boyfriend.

Then he experienced it for himself.

Around this little girl, he couldn't help taking care of her. When she looked at him with those big, watery, pitiful eyes, he couldn't resist spending money on her, serving her hand and foot, as if he'd been bewitched...

☆ Timid, silly beauty x dark, arrogant heir, competing suitors, both are non-virgins

☆ Older man, long-planned pursuit, the proud one bends
