The CEO's Beauty

This is a short story I wrote a long time ago, before it was contracted. I still like it a lot, so I'm posting it again.

Jinjiang had a famous domineering CEO. He was single, handsome, and six feet tall.

Rich and good-looking, he was the object of countless people's admiration.

Everyone knew he had a beloved whom he had never forgotten: a cool, beautiful person. The CEO had pursued him for eight years, only for him to leave the country without a trace of regret.

When everyone next saw the CEO, a gorgeous little vixen had appeared by his side. The vixen came from Haitang City, and every smile and frown was bewitching. Yet he had a cool, detached air, as if he belonged to another world.

They understood: this was the CEO's replacement. Once his beloved returned from abroad, the CEO would surely abandon him. He would suffer a cruel blow, grow to hate the CEO because of his love, and then be taken in by one of the other people coveting him.

They waited and waited. At last, the beloved returned from abroad, but the little vixen wasn't abandoned. Instead, they saw the CEO being kissed breathless by him.

Wait, why was the CEO the one whose legs had gone weak from being kissed?

The CEO was a well-known Jinjiang executive. Like all traditional Jinjiang CEOs, he had a beloved he could never forget.

According to the story, he should either follow the route where his beloved comes back after he has suffered through a brutal breakup, or the route where he goes through the same ordeal over a replacement. In the end, he'd get his happy ending. Whoever he ended up with, he'd have to suffer through a painful breakup before winning the beauty's heart.

But fate took a turn. He did meet a replacement, only this one was from Haitang City.

The beauty was a true beauty, born and raised in Haitang City, and shaped by its particular culture. Even as a replacement, he was utterly different.

Other replacement lovers wanted either the CEO's affection or his money. This one had a simple desire: he only wanted the CEO's good looks. To put it more bluntly, he wanted the CEO's body.

Later, though, he wanted the CEO's heart too.

A sweet story of two people finding their way to each other.
