Tempt Her

Blurb:

The eldest son of the Bo family is known throughout the circles of the powerful as a heaven-blessed prodigy: refined, elegant, and learned, he reaches heights others can only dream of with every gesture.

When Li Chu was in high school, she had the good fortune to meet him while tutoring his younger brother.

Back then, his eyes were cold, and a faint air of distance surrounded him. Li Chu thought he disliked her, so she never dared act carelessly around him. Even when he caught her laughing and joking with his younger brother, she would immediately fall silent.

After graduating from university, Li Chu learned that Bo Cenyuan was managing the company across the ocean. Faced with two choices, she chose to join the more prestigious Bo Corporation.

Two months into the job, Li Chu saw the man who was supposed to be across the ocean show up at headquarters, becoming her direct supervisor.

Li Chu reverted to the tense, cautious girl she'd been in high school, always avoiding Bo Cenyuan.

But Bo Cenyuan had shed his former cool detachment and began closing in on her, step by step.

After a company gathering, Li Chu stood with her colleagues in the cold wind, scantily dressed as they waited for a ride. Bo Cenyuan took off his coat and draped it over her. Li Chu grew nervous and said softly, "Mr. Bo."

Bo Cenyuan looked up at her and answered quietly in the dark, "Hm?"

Li Chu took off the coat, flustered. "This isn't really appropriate, is it?"

Bo Cenyuan held down her fair hand and carefully put the coat back on her. His low voice turned hoarse, and the sordid thoughts he'd buried spilled out all at once.

"I think you suit it perfectly."

Bo Cenyuan fell for the girl his younger brother had set his heart on. He reined in his shameful desire, suppressed the urge to take her for himself, and forced himself to stay away.

When they met again, the girl who had once been full of youthful vitality had blossomed into a woman. Bo Cenyuan's dark gaze settled on her. Unable to hold back any longer, he drew closer step by step, luring her, unsuspecting, into his trap and making her his.
