[A rich, beautiful CEO who loves taking people in x a scheming, handsome young idol]
[Female-dominant relationship; nine-year age gap]
[No romance or intimate scenes before adulthood]
When Le Liu was in his second year of high school, he pulled all-nighters at an internet cafe playing games for other people. One morning, while squatting by the entrance and slurping instant noodles, he caught the eye of a talent scout. His parents saw the five thousand yuan on the contract and signed without hesitation.
The boy watched coldly, as if he weren't the one named as the other party in the contract.
He thought a new life was beginning, but it turned out he'd fallen into another trap. The company was holding him to a fifteen-year contract, and even wanted to make money off his termination fee.
A year went by, and he still hadn't saved enough for college tuition.
With nowhere else to turn, the lofty woman who existed only in financial news extended an olive branch: "Le Liu, would you be mine?"
Le Liu had no other choice.
With Qi Jinming's help, Le Liu successfully debuted. Countless lights shone on him, and as he looked at the sea of glow sticks below the stage, his eyes quietly filled with tears.
"So, what do you think? I've arranged for you to perform on a satellite TV New Year's Eve special this year."
Back at the hotel, Qi Jinming sat lazily on the sofa, with the neon-lit cityscape behind her. Her red lips were vivid, and her straight, ear-length black hair made her look gorgeous and sharp.
Le Liu was still wearing his stage costume. He walked over and draped an arm around her neck, saying obediently, "Mm, I'll do whatever you say, Sis."
He thought he was special, until he eventually learned that Qi Jinming had plenty of people like him around her. All she had to do was beckon, and countless people would rush to her side.
He wasn't one of a kind. He was just one among many.
On countless quiet nights, Le Liu would ask, tears streaming down his face and his voice almost obsessive, "Sis, could you love me just a little more?"
