Burning Ears

[Add to your collection if you're interested. I'll post an announcement when it starts.]

Everyone knows top-tier star Ji Chuyan has a powerful backer who dotes on her and protects her fiercely.

Only Ji Chuyan knows that what looks like attentive care is actually a twisted desire to control her.

She doesn't want to be controlled, so she uses every trick in the book to get rid of each bodyguard her backer assigns her.

Her new bodyguard is called Xia Langsheng. He's muscular, with a short buzz cut and rugged features.

Just standing there is enough to make people shiver.

Most of the time, he watches her from a distance and never says a word more than necessary.

He can't be swayed by money or tempted by sex.

Ji Chuyan tries everything she can think of, but still can't get rid of him.

Just when she thinks nothing will change, Xia Langsheng picks up her script and points to an intimate scene. For once, he speaks first. "The boss won't let you film this."

Ji Chuyan lies calmly. "He agreed to it."

On the day of filming, the set is cleared, but Xia Langsheng barges in. "The boss said I should be your body double."

Under the camera's gaze, they nuzzle and kiss passionately, their breath brushing against each other's ears.

What they're both thinking is

The boss has no idea this is happening.

-Happy ending- [Rugged bodyguard x calculating bird in a cage]

A stormy night.

Ji Chuyan rests her pale feet on his knees. "If he finds out, he'll kill you."

Xia Langsheng carefully paints her toenails and says fearlessly, "Then I'll be a ghost and haunt you day and night."

The day she met Xia Langsheng was a night of torrential rain. Ji Chuyan knew that once the storm passed, the mountains would bloom with flowers.

I feel this book may not suit readers who are extremely devoted to the male lead, because the heroine is a schemer. [The heroine is a schemer, be warned]

It may also not suit readers who say, "I'm a heroine fan, but I still think the heroine is [derogatory term]."

[The title and blurb may change at any time.]
