Harboring Evil Intentions

Shen Zhichuan never imagined that someone as calm, rational, and unruffled as himself could one day be teased by the flirtatious Xie Xingyan into revealing the ardor he kept hidden deep inside. His reason, always above his emotions, finally deserted him.

Caught in those peach-blossom eyes blazing with passion, Shen Zhichuan ultimately gave in, his voice hoarse as he surrendered his heart.

But then Shen Zhichuan suddenly realized that what he had thought was passionate love had all been part of Xie Xingyan's deliberate scheme.

Looking at Xie Xingyan's still-beautiful eyes and hearing him tell someone else, "Do I look like the kind of idiot who believes true love exists?" Shen Zhichuan smiled softly.

So he was the idiot after all.

But it didn't matter. From now on, he wouldn't be anymore.

Shen Zhichuan returned to his composed, cool, rational, and steady self.

When he saw Xie Xingyan again, Shen Zhichuan merely looked away, unruffled.

But Xie Xingyan was finding it harder and harder to control himself.

He wanted Shen Zhichuan to care about him. He wanted to kick every man surrounding Shen Zhichuan out of the way.

He wanted Shen Zhichuan's warm, passionate gaze fixed on his brow and his heart.

He wanted Shen Zhichuan, voice hoarse and eyes unfocused, relying on him alone, day and night.

He longed for the right to love Shen Zhichuan, and longed to be loved by him again.

But there was no more warmth in Shen Zhichuan's eyes. He left the passion of the past, along with Xie Xingyan, far behind.

No matter how attentive or sincere Xie Xingyan was, no matter how desperately he pleaded, all he got in return was Shen Zhichuan's cold, disgusted reply: "Get lost. I don't want you."

Clutching his chest, Xie Xingyan slipped the wedding ring Shen Zhichuan had thrown back onto his lonely finger and murmured miserably, "But you're the only one I want."
