Indulgence

A post once appeared on Ming University’s forum: someone asked what kind of girl Xu Yunkuo, the computer science department’s top student, liked.

A guy claiming to be Xu Yunkuo’s friend answered for him:

1. Well-behaved

2. Innocent

3. Obedient

The girls across campus buzzed with speculation.

Xu Yunkuo was captain of the school basketball team, 189 centimeters tall, a Scorpio, fond of driving off-road vehicles, from a powerful family, and top of his year.

Everyone thought his friend was telling the truth. They also figured that a favored son of heaven like him would surely want a girlfriend who listened to him completely.

Until one day, Xu Yunkuo became fixated on a freshman.

Her name was Wen Yuluo. Cool and aloof, she was nothing like obedient or well-behaved.

She was also strikingly beautiful, with bold, sharp features.

One night, outside the dormitory, Xu Yunkuo pulled her close, his tall frame looming over her. He held her chin and kissed her again and again, his kisses so forceful she could barely take it.

“Say you like me.”

“I want to hear it ten times.”

His breath brushed her ear, his voice low and husky.

Luo Ling was breathtakingly beautiful, with a pure face and a slender, delicate figure. She looked clean and harmless, and when Jin Beixiao first met her, he thought so too.

When his good friend said he wanted to pursue her, Jin Beixiao replied with cool amusement, “Why are you into that type?”

But that very day...

Jin Beixiao saw Luo Ling put on an ice-blue racing suit, tuck a helmet under her arm, and climb into a supercar.

It was the China GT Zhuhai race.

From the independent Platinum VIP lounge on the second floor, Jin Beixiao watched the ice-blue car tear around the track and take first place by a huge margin.

After the race, Jin Beixiao went to the drivers’ paddock to find Luo Ling.

Luo Ling regarded him with interest and invited him to dinner.

Jin Beixiao gladly accepted.

At the table, he tried to add her on WeChat, but Luo Ling refused.

Then she left coldly after the meal.

Later, Jin Beixiao learned that Luo Ling had a fiance.

Even so, at the charity gala hosted by her father, he paid a fortune for the evening’s top auction item.

A week later, Jin Beixiao bought the equestrian estate Luo Ling often visited.

In the rooftop tearoom overlooking the grounds, Luo Ling kissed him.

Jin Beixiao wanted her to take responsibility and replace her fiance with him.

But Luo Ling only smiled faintly. “Mr. Jin, that was just a game.”

Later still, he heard that Luo Ling planned to get back together with her ex-boyfriend.

Jin Beixiao bundled her onto a helicopter.

He kissed her for a long time, his breathing heavy. His voice fell by her ear, carrying a note of pleading. “As long as you don’t leave me, what’s mine is yours. I’ll let the past go.”

He knew all about her schemes and how she used him, yet he was more than willing.

More than any of that, all he cared about was her heart.

A flirtatious, calculating, beautiful heroine with a career-first mindset x a powerful, pure-hearted CEO

“If you’re going to bait me, go all the way.”

“Luo Ling, I’ll let you have your fun.”
