*Playing the fool to catch the tiger | Male stand-in trope | Friends with benefits to lovers | A thousand schemes to win back his wife
In the desolate land of Socotra, Yemen, Wen Ling found a mixed-race man of breathtaking beauty.
He called himself Adrien. His blue-brown gradient eyes were mesmerizing, and his hair was a little long at the ends. He was utterly gentle, worshipping her as a goddess in bed and bowing to her in everyday life.
Beneath the dragon's blood trees, she ordered him to kiss every inch of her body, but forbade him from whispering a single word of love.
Once, he accidentally told her "I love you" in French. She pushed him away on the spot, her eyes and brows covered in frost. "I don't need your love."
As their parting drew near, after much agonizing, she considered taking him back to her country. But when she turned around, the man had vanished into thin air, never to be seen again.

Wen Ling had always believed Wei Shuyan was fate's gift to her, her salvation. She never expected that she was the prey he had been watching from the very beginning.
In their lovemaking, devoid of reason, she told him, "I never loved you. The only thing I loved was..."
"Only the ways he and I are exactly alike, right?" Wei Shuyan gripped her chin, forcing her to look at herself, disheveled in the mirror. "Then who is your body crying for now?"
He wanted her to be a butterfly in his cage, trapped in his palm for all her life, with nowhere to run.
