Crossing the Line in Spring [Contract]

Passionate in Public, Strangers in Private | The Untouchable Beauty Bows to Love | Updated Daily

Jiang Zhi found a part-time job paying a million a month: be the contract girlfriend of a top tycoon for six months.

On the day she signed the contract, the man sat expressionlessly behind his desk. He was as cool and refined, aloof and abstinent, and hard to approach as the rumors claimed.

She opened the agreement: Neither party may engage in any intimate contact.

Any breach will incur a hefty penalty.

???

As if anyone wanted to take advantage of him.

Jiang Zhi made up her mind: she would not so much as touch a hair on his head!

But on her second day at work, she accidentally crossed the line and kissed his ear.

Jiang Zhi said with a heavy heart, "Take it out of my salary."

That same day, she accidentally walked in on him changing in his room and got quite an eyeful.

The man primly buttoned his shirt and said coolly, "What Miss Jiang just saw was paid content. You have to pay to watch."

Jiang Zhi saw black: Take it out of my salary.

…

Then one night, Jiang Zhi got drunk, lost her footing, and fell into his lap. She even went and committed a grave offense…

She was doomed. She was going to be bankrupted by the compensation.

She couldn't keep doing this job. She'd better run away tonight!

…She didn't get away, and now someone was clinging to her. She couldn't shake him off no matter what. Orz

Lately, Jiang Zhi had been especially sleep-deprived. One morning, she woke up and, ignoring her aching back, nudged the man beside her. "President Cheng, I think we'd better keep our distance."

"What, you're going to toss me aside after using me? Don't even think about it."

Cheng Yuhuai had originally planned to cut ties completely once the contract expired. He'd never imagined he'd become so hopelessly obsessed with someone, wishing he could cling to her twenty-four hours a day.

"I never make a deal at a loss."

He pulled the woman in his arms even closer and asked in a husky voice:

"So, Miss Jiang, when are you going to give me a title?"

Warm, lively graduate student who studies cat language × CEO who's cold on the surface but actually…

After the college entrance exams, Zhi Miao was invited to Liang Mu's house for a birthday party.

After the festivities, everyone was sprawled around, dead drunk.

A sudden fault in the power lines plunged the entire villa into darkness.

When no one was looking, Zhi Miao quietly crept upstairs and slipped into Liang Mu's room. Summoning her courage, she stole a kiss from him while he was drunk.

Just as she was about to pull away, he grabbed her wrist and drew her closer.

Zhi Miao's heart pounded. Her voice trembled:

"I... I've liked you for a long time. Would you... be my boyfriend?"

In reply came a low, ambiguous laugh, followed by a passionate kiss that was almost too intense.

Zhi Miao was so nervous she accidentally bit his lip until it bled.

Red-faced, she fled in a panic.

The next morning.

Zhi Miao went downstairs. Liang Mu was chatting and laughing with someone in the living room. She shyly glanced at the corner of his lips, only to find no trace of an injury.

…What was going on?

Just then, a shout suddenly came from behind her.

"Damn, Chen Huaixu, what happened to the corner of your mouth?!"

Zhi Miao was struck as if by lightning.

Then she heard a low laugh that sounded vaguely familiar.

His voice carried a hint of confusion. "Did it?"

Zhi Miao's face turned deathly pale. She felt like the sky was falling.

The one who had laughed was Chen Huaixu, the school heartthrob and top student at A High, as well as Liang Mu's cousin.

He was handsome and came from a wealthy family. Countless girls liked him.

And she clearly remembered that he'd always been aloof and looked down on her. They'd barely interacted, hardly even exchanged a few words.

How could it be…

What Zhi Miao didn't know was this:

Chen Huaixu didn't dislike her. He disliked that her gaze always rested on someone else.

Years later, they reunited, and Chen Huaixu became her direct supervisor.

At a class reunion one day, Zhi Miao deliberately kept her distance and sat far away from him.

Someone asked curiously, "You two weren't that close in high school, were you?"

Someone else agreed. "I remember they barely knew each other back then."

Almost at the same time.

Zhi Miao nodded. "Yeah, we weren't close."

Chen Huaixu said flatly, "Ex-girlfriend."

They were more than just close.

Everyone: Huh???

Chen Huaixu's voice lowered. "Yeah, we really weren't close."

Zhi Miao said expressionlessly, "We only spent the night together."

They both changed their stories at the same time.

Everyone continued to stare in stunned silence.

How about you two… get your stories straight?
