The Substitute Has Ulterior Motives

A promiscuous, carefree, flirtatious top x a two-faced, hypocritically kind, possessive bottom

Rong Lu: 181 cm, a stunning beauty with a slim waist, long legs, and a touch of madness.

Jiang Tongye: 193 cm, a fierce wolfdog with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and an imposing presence.

Rong Lu has a long-dead idealized first love,

and a current lover who signed a substitute agreement.

They say a first love can't compare to someone who came later, but a first love who has passed away can.

Jiang Tongye thinks that's bullshit.

A certain wolf who's managed to get inside is good at acting sweet and obedient.

Rong Lu thinks he's well-behaved and has had a difficult life, so he lets down his guard a little.

Unfortunately, the other man isn't just good at pretending. He's also an expert at pushing his luck,

testing the limits a little at a time and repeatedly dancing right on the edge,

quietly pushing the long-dead love rival out of Rong Lu's heart.

Jiang Tongye knows you can't force a melon to be sweet, so he'll take it slow, waiting until it's fully ripe before picking it. Then the unripe fruit will naturally become thoroughly sweet, soft, and fragrant.
