Deep Affection

[Main story complete, bonus chapters to come]

[Next book: A Heart Scorched by Clear Liquor, with the woman pursuing the man]

Qian Ni was in a car accident during her senior year of high school. Her body was fine, but she hit her head and needed five stitches in the back of her skull.

Maybe the doctor took too long stitching her up and her memories slipped away. When Qian Ni woke up, she felt like she'd forgotten something. For instance, she seemed to have had someone she was flirting with.

In her dreams, she was a lovesick fool who fell for a street thug. He always wore a gray undershirt, walked around in a pair of Cantonese-style flip-flops, and swore every other sentence. Apart from his undeniably handsome face, he was useless in every way.

Oh, right. He also had a tattoo, and it was probably her name.

.

In her senior year of college, Qian Ni worked at a coffee shop.

One day, a stranger came into the shop. He wore a bespoke suit and gold-rimmed glasses, with an elegant, refined air and charming manner of speaking. He looked a little like a well-bred scoundrel, nothing like the shameless thug in her dreams... except his face was exactly the same.

He also wore a women's ring on the ring finger of his left hand. It looked familiar.

The first time they met, Qian Ni chased him outside and asked if they'd met somewhere before.

The man coolly and arrogantly denied it, then got into a Rolls-Royce and drove away, leaving her choking on exhaust fumes.

The second time they met, Qian Ni couldn't help asking whether he was really sure they'd never met.

The man's eyes tilted behind his gold-rimmed glasses. He asked unhurriedly, "Are you hitting on me?"

.

Later, one rainy night, Qian Ni and the man were caught in the rain at the same time. With no umbrella, they sheltered beneath the eaves.

Qian Ni thought her luck was terrible, but when she turned her head, she caught sight of a tattoo showing through the man's soaked white shirt, right over his chest.

QN, exactly her initials.

Qian Ni's eyes widened. The next moment, the man slowly took off his glasses, whose lenses were obscured by rain. His eyes were just like the ones in her dreams, with a hint of roguish wildness, burning with heat and possessiveness as he murmured:

"Looks like... I can't keep pretending."

Qian Ni: ...

Wait, wait, wait! How did this turn into some CEO romance plot? I don't get it!

[Afraid of dirtying you, yet unable to stop myself from touching you, covered in mud.]

The male lead acts refined, but he's really a wild, unhinged rogue.

Flirtatious female CEO X her beloved first love

Blurb:

Yan Yuge is the kind of child everyone admires.

She's top of her class, ranking first year after year;

well-mannered, with exceptional poise and eloquence;

born into a prominent family, the only daughter of the Yan family, and a famous young heiress at Jiangcheng High School.

Everyone in her circle knows Yan Yuge is so exceptional that few can measure up to her. But hardly anyone knows that she's rebellious at heart, with a double-sided nature.

When she was eighteen, the Yan family hired a tutor.

He was handsome and refined, with a gentle air. His hands, in particular, were beautiful.

After three months of lessons, Yan Yuge and her tutor became fairly good friends. She also learned that he had been dating someone for a year.

.

Six years later.

As president of Yan Group, Yan Yuge is known in her circle for her skill and for being... promiscuous.

She'd dated so many people, you couldn't count them on the fingers of both hands and both feet.

Then one day, a rumor came out of nowhere.

President Yan had her eye on a down-and-out teacher, a man who was no spring chicken and had no connections. Apart from his handsome face, he was useless.

Oh, right, he'd also been jilted at the altar.

People in her circle said President Yan was just trying something different. But to everyone's surprise, after that one fling, no one ever heard that they broke up.

.

In the villa, Yan Ni watches the man preparing lessons in his study.

The man who was her first sexual awakening at eighteen.

Miss Yan's motto: If you like it, you have to get it.
