Beyond Love and Romance

[A date with endless romance, a complete and utter fall]

[Romantic sparring between grown men and women // their daily routine of bickering (and loving) each other]

Blurb 1:

Xia Li is the front desk manager at the Miy Grand Hotel.

She has been in Beicheng for barely three months,

but she already knows Zhang Yizhou very well.

The reason is simple:

Every time she works the night shift, she sees Zhang Yizhou checking in with a woman.

And he never brings the same woman twice.

By the end, she can greet him familiarly as soon as she sees him. "Mr. Zhang, back again? The usual tonight?"

The usual means a night in the suite he often stays in, with the bill charged directly to his account.

Zhang Yizhou glances at her,

only to find her looking around in confusion. Why has he come alone today?

Blurb 2:

Zhang Yizhou became a regular at the Miy Hotel while he was trying to catch a big fish.

He didn't stay there every day, but somehow, each time he did, she happened to be working.

After successfully reeling in his target, a friend asked him out for drinks and wanted to know where he was.

Zhang Yizhou sent him his location.

His friend looked baffled. "Wait, why are you still staying there?"

Zhang Yizhou calmly swiped his card to pay the deposit. "Fishing."

His friend: "???" What the hell? You just caught the biggest fish! What are you still fishing for?

His friend never could have guessed

and neither could Zhang Yizhou himself

that after catching big fish without getting hooked, he'd end up chasing a little fish and get completely reeled in.

It was the worst deal Zhang Yizhou had ever made.

#Question: What's it like to set out fishing and get caught instead?#

Blurb 3:

Xia Li's best friend shared some advice with her: "Before you get a boyfriend, check his hotel records. If he's got too many marks on his record, don't bother."

Zhang Yizhou was right beside her, holding her close, and heard what her friend said.

She looked up and couldn't help laughing when she saw his brows knit together.

For someone with so many marks on his record that the hotel system had to split them across pages, it really was something to frown about.

She deliberately answered her friend, "Yeah, you've got a point."

The next second, he turned her wrist and hung up the phone.

The wolfish man turned into a puppy and kissed her, his voice seductive and edged with danger. "What's got a point, hmm?"
