First loves for both leads / An inspiring life / Mutual secret crush / He pursues her

[Blurb]

At the end of midsummer, the tipsy morning breeze carried Xue Tangxin into Kou Zhi's heart.

The whole school said that eccentric, unconventional Kou Zhi wasn't good enough for a girl as brilliant as Xue Tangxin. Kou Zhi refused to believe it. Even if he broke his leg, he would pursue her to the end.

In the end, even his friend couldn't stand watching anymore and asked him, "Why bother? Is she worth it?"

Kou Zhi said smugly, "What can I do? My name has the character 'Zhi' in it."

Keeping up with the latest gossip, her best friend ran over to Xue Tangxin and said, "Kou Zhi broke his leg for you. How are you going to take responsibility?"

Xue Tangxin's eyes and brows softened with warmth. "I'll take full responsibility."

[Little Scene]

Kou Zhi, with one leg in a cast, wheedled from his hospital bed, "Honey, my leg hurts."

After making sure they were alone, Xue Tangxin quietly swept her long hair behind her ear, then brushed a kiss over his lips. Blinking, she asked, "Does it still hurt?"

Kou Zhi blankly shook his head. She contentedly started to leave, but he grabbed her and pulled her into his arms, holding her tight. With a muffled groan, he said, "It hurts. I want more."

[In a nutshell] No matter how the world changes, there will always be someone who loves you recklessly.

Strive toward your goals in the prime of your youth.

Mostly set at school, with the early story on campus and the later story in the city. A sweet romance with plenty of melodrama.

Blurb for the upcoming book Wild Love:

Waiting for the right moment / Taking by force / Mildly coercive love / The powerful man bows his head / Stealing someone else's partner

[He doesn't want to spend another night alone.]

That night, Yan Xun was driving past a roadside food stall when he happened to glimpse a couple in the throes of new love feeding each other. He sat in his car and watched them for a long time.

After spending the night in the wind, he fell ill and took an extended leave to recuperate at his villa in the suburbs.

After graduating from college, Qin Zhiyu wanted nothing more than to land a job in the human resources department at Yanhong Group. She usually preferred to keep a low profile.

Then one day, her department supervisor sent her to the suburbs to deliver some documents to Mr. Yan.

When Qin Zhiyu saw the sick Yan Xun, she felt sorry for him and cooked him a pot of porridge.

She never expected him to become so fixated on her.

-

Qin Zhiyu had always thought her boss was highly educated, gentlemanly, refined, worldly, and considerate of his employees. She thought he was a truly good man.

So she had no defenses around Yan Xun and did whatever he asked, all to keep her boss happy and get a raise so she could help her boyfriend pay off his loans.

Until two months later...

That night, they were locked in a room together, and Yan Xun finally couldn't hold back from making a move on her.

He gripped her ankle and wouldn't let go. In the dim light, his captivating peach-blossom eyes drew close to hers, and the corner of his mouth lifted. "I've given you so many perks. Isn't it time you paid me back?"

Qin Zhiyu didn't understand and tried to back away, but there was nowhere left to go. She asked timidly, "Mr. Yan, I don't understand what you mean."

Yan Xun's gaze grew dark and deep. His fingertips tightened around her ankle, growing hot. "Break up with him and be my girlfriend. From now on, you'll only please me."

It wasn't a proposal. It was a forceful demand.

Qin Zhiyu's entire worldview crumbled. The man she'd known for two months seemed like someone else: domineering, controlling, and ruthless. He was a bad man.

Terrified but unwilling to give in, she resolutely prepared to secretly register her marriage to the boyfriend she'd been with for five years.

-

The day before they were supposed to go to the civil affairs bureau, Qin Zhiyu went into Yan Xun's room again out of pity for his illness.

Alone together in the room, he leaned against the headboard and lazily looked her up and down before giving a derisive laugh. "You think marrying him will stop me from doing whatever I want with you?"

Qin Zhiyu was so frightened that tears streamed down her face. She didn't dare challenge this man who had gone mad.

He forcefully pulled her into his arms and gently traced her trembling lips with his fingertip, coaxing her in a calm voice. "Why are you trembling? As long as you break up with him and date me, you won't lose out. I'll treat you even better than he does."

Qin Zhiyu pretended to be obedient, judged the situation, and considered looking for a chance to escape.

But her family was her weakness, and that man had her firmly in his grasp. She didn't dare entertain the thought of escaping again.

On the day she broke up with her boyfriend, the man didn't care that someone was standing behind the door. He deliberately exposed himself in the peephole's view so her ex-boyfriend could see him kissing her.

-

Yan Xun had never intended to bully a young woman just entering the working world. It would go against the gentlemanly image he had cultivated for himself.

But she had barged into the barren wilderness of his life, where the seasons had turned for years, like a dazzling sunflower. She left behind a seed that sprouted and took root, claiming his territory.

From that moment on, he decided: this flower would bloom only in his garden, forever.

Scheming, unhinged powerful man x easygoing, innocent little white flower

A story about a one-sided secret crush turning into stealing someone else's love.

No need to think too hard. I just want to write an old-school coercive romance. Life is dull, so let's have a little excitement. But this story does not promote harmful behavior. Readers under eighteen should use discretion! Please keep a healthy outlook on life!
