Green Tea in a Thousand Layers

As a wealthy, beautiful, and highly perceptive social climber, Xia Yiyi has always thrived among men and never once failed.

When a friend refused to believe her, she casually pointed to the lectern and picked out an innocent target.

“Let’s make a bet. I’ll have him wrapped around my finger within a month.”

“Xia, please try to restrain yourself.”

At the lectern, the young teaching assistant in square-rimmed glasses raised his lesson plan to hide his bright-red face.

Barely an inch from his ear, Xia Yiyi smiled, her lips red and teeth white, her foxlike eyes curving.

“I only wanted to ask you a few questions.”

One day, Xia Yiyi knocked on Lin Chen’s office door.

“I heard there was a bet?”

The latch clicked softly. The man took off his gold-rimmed glasses unhurriedly, the corner of his mouth lifting into an expression she had never seen before.

“How do you know I haven’t been plotting this with you in mind all along?”

For the high school entrance exams, Ning Qian got the highest score in the district's arts admissions test. Yet reporters only chased after the science-stream top scorer in the college entrance exam who lived next door.

Ning Qian snapped, “Were you born just to make my life difficult?”

Li Luo thought about it seriously. “How could I be?”

“I’m here to show you just how outstanding men can be, so you don’t get fooled by some random guy.”
