Through the Fifth Beat

One day, Shen Yuqiao suddenly realized she could live off her royalties until the end of her days.

As a world-class music producer, she had been writing and releasing songs since high school. She already had nearly a hundred smash hits under her belt, and had even kept a company that was on the verge of going under afloat.

Still, she wanted to earn two salaries.

To avoid interrupting her songwriting, Shen Yuqiao carefully picked through her options and settled on an administrative job at a well-known law firm. The pay was good, the workload was light, and the benefits were great.

She had thought the job would be a breeze, but somehow she ended up as a top lawyer's personal secretary, rushing around in a daze every day.

At last, she couldn't take it anymore. She handed in her resignation, packed her things, and planned to spend some time recuperating in a small town somewhere in Northern Europe.

Who knew the top lawyer would suddenly appear at her doorstep in the middle of the night?

“Could you please stay?”

Wen Xing raised her tearful eyes and asked, looking utterly vulnerable.

Shen Yuqiao was at a loss for words.

...Where had all that courtroom bloodlust gone?!
