Si Qiqing x Li Zhao

[Blurb]

Si Qiqing was the heiress to a conglomerate, but after her parents died, she became a caged songbird under the control of her uncles.

She played the part of a doll at lavish parties, then turned around and set fire to her cage.

"If I can't survive, then we'll die together."

As the flames leapt up, she remembered the look in her mother's eyes before she died. At last, the hatred she'd suppressed for years was released.

Unfortunately, her plan failed. Her captors became even more wary of her, and even sent a man to keep an eye on her movements.

A man...?

Si Qiqing narrowed her eyes as she sized up Li Zhao, then set her black-stockinged foot on the ground.

She raised a hand, grabbed his tie, and pulled his expressionless face closer.

"Did they send you?"

Li Zhao's Adam's apple bobbed. He stared straight ahead. "Miss Si, please behave yourself."

Si Qiqing was a liar.

That was what Li Zhao had originally thought.

But when her slender hand clutched his lapel and her drenched body trembled as she collapsed into his arms,

Li Zhao thought: Even if it costs me everything, I have to protect her with all I've got.

Si Qiqing loved sweets.

Si Qiqing liked sparkling accessories.

Si Qiqing was simply Si Qiqing.

Li Zhao thought he had finally touched her heart. He worked up the courage to say, "I'll take you away."

But she only shrugged, her tone indifferent. "It's just a game. Don't take it so seriously, Mr. Li."

After the storm had passed, Si Qiqing asked Li Zhao, "Do you still hate me?"

Li Zhao shook his head and kissed her fingertips. "I will love you forever."

#Married First, Fall in Love Later# #Reunion After Years Apart# #Love Blooms Late#

Xu Jia's ballet production, which she had trained for over four years, was about to open when she was told she'd been replaced just before going onstage.

After the performance, she went to confront the person responsible, only to stumble upon a breakup.

The actress ran past Xu Jia, her makeup ruined by tears.

Xu Jia gave her a cold glance, then looked at the man standing on the platform.

Shao Yanqing, heir to a wealthy family, controlled most of the entertainment industry's resources and was its most powerful backer.

They were like clouds and mud: he was the moon in the heavens, while she was dust on the ground.

If she missed this chance, she might never get another easy way to turn her life around.

"Mr. Shao."

Xu Jia walked up to him, took the lit cigarette from his hand, and pressed its damp filter to her lips. "Would you like to give me a chance?"

Shao Yanqing looked at her impassively, then walked away without saying a word.

Xu Jia thought her plan had failed, but three days later, she received an invitation.

It read: You are invited to the wedding of Xu Jia and Shao Yanqing.

Xu Jia knew perfectly well that their marriage was only a transaction.

Even when they were happiest together, she had no hesitation about leaving.

Soon, rumors spread that Shao Yanqing had become obsessed with a woman, starting a company and investing in a dance troupe, going to great lengths to win her back.

Xu Jia paid no attention to the rumors, but froze when she returned to her front door.

A gaunt figure was waiting outside, head bowed, frost covering his shoulders.

Shao Yanqing's eyes were bloodshot. He grabbed her hand, trembling, and gritted out, "Xu Jia, do you have no heart at all?"

Before Xu Jia could answer, he had pinned her against the wall.

Shao Yanqing wrapped an arm around her waist and pressed his cold lips to her ear, his voice sounding both like a warning and a plea. "Xu Jia, tell me you love me."

"Even if I become a bed of thorns, I'll clear a path for you."
