I'm Frail and Sickly, and I Don't Want to Marry into a Wealthy Family

My next novel: "The CEO Is a Kept Man"

Typhoon Wipha was about to make landfall. Inside a café by Victoria Harbour, Su Zhenjiu was on a blind date.

The man across from her was one of the heirs to a wealthy family, though not the only one. His net worth might not have been as high as his scandal count.

The man spoke with disdain. "You're the Nan family's fake heiress. You won't get a single share of the Nan Group. If you want to marry me, we should try before we buy and make sure you can give me a son."

Su Zhenjiu smiled faintly. "I have photos of you kissing Mrs. Huo in a parking lot. It'll cost three million to buy the photos and five million to keep me quiet."

The café's glass door suddenly opened, and Su Zhenjiu's gaze fell on the person who had just walked in.

He wore a black shirt, and the sapphire cuff links were as deep and dazzling as his eyes, enough to make one's heart skip a beat.

The blind date's threats abruptly stopped. He backed down completely.

Su Zhenjiu resumed her ladylike posture and spoke sharply to the newcomer. "Don't you dare tell Mom!" Then, with nothing else to say, she asked, "How did you get across the harbor?"

"By helicopter!" Nan Guanghua turned and sat down beside her, looking languid and distinguished.

"In a typhoon like this? Are you insane?"

Su Zhenjiu turned her face away, deliberately refusing to look at him. Below his bobbing Adam's apple was the mark of her bite.

When Su Zhenjiu was eighteen, she learned that some people seemed refined and courteous on the outside, but were obsessive and dangerous beneath the surface. He was someone she couldn't afford to provoke.

But even a rabbit bites when cornered, and she wasn't a rabbit.

Nan Guanghua had known from the start that Miss Su was a brash girl, with a terrible temper and a talent for getting her way.

What he hated most was how she acted domineering in front of others, yet treated him with polite distance, as obedient as a doll.

On that typhoon day a few years ago, the Nan family held a banquet.

Nan Guanghua pulled her behind the curtains. Outside the window, lightning flashed on and off.

His voice was restrained. "I bet you won't make a sound."

But his actions were anything but restrained as he pinned her against the glass and kissed her fiercely.

Later... I bet you love me as much as I love you, until you're mad with desire.

The next book in the male-stand-in-goes-mad series: "The CEO Is a Kept Man"

Qin Suiyu ran into her first love again. She heard he hadn't taken the college entrance exam, was doing poorly, and made a living selling things to tourists from a street stall.

She went all in and handed him the keys to a luxury car. "Be with me?"

She laid down three rules: "One: Don't let anyone find out! Two: Don't get jealous! Three: I'll get a prenuptial agreement!"

After their whirlwind wedding, they could only find time to meet at hotels, order takeout, play games, and slowly build their relationship.

A gossip account was about to expose the romance between a former child star and a Hong Kong private-equity CEO.

Qin Suiyu never imagined the story would hit so close to home.

It wasn't until she saw photos of herself embracing Lin Yanzhi in a hotel parking garage that she was left with a head full of question marks!

She only learned from the gossip report that her hidden husband was a private-equity CEO!

Just two days before the report came out, Qin Suiyu discovered that her secretly powerful CEO husband wasn't the gentle first love she'd thought he was. She asked for a divorce without hesitation!

Lin Yanzhi gripped her chin between his fingers and smiled roguishly. "Suiyu, what do you mean, stand-in? We're legally married!"

He lowered his head and kissed her fiercely.
