My Uncle Hates That I Don't Love Him [Foster Care]

Astronomy Good Girl x Gloomy, Obsessive Older Uncle

Uncle romance / Push and pull / A touch of coercive romance / The groveling chase

💦 The male lead is a straight-up crazy, gloomy guy. Proceed with caution!

/1.

When Cen Xiao was fifteen, twenty-four-year-old Fu Zhengze had a huge fight with her father and stormed out. Eyes red, he pressed a piece of candy into her hand.

"Go back and do your homework."

They became enemies, and he never came back. Cen Xiao thought they would never see each other again.

But three years later, with her father at the end of his rope, she was sent to the door of that villa.

The gloomy, obsessive man had long since risen to the top, with fame and fortune to his name. He glanced sidelong at the timid little rabbit before him, a wicked thought taking root. The hand he reached toward her crushed the faint glimmer of light.

"Your dad gave you to me. Did you know that?"

Fu Zhengze treated his enemy's daughter as a little enemy of his own. He paved the way for her, paid for her education, and carefully raised her, yet all the while he wondered how to unleash his boundless hatred on her.

He thought that a timid little rabbit should be easy to handle.

/2.

But things didn't go as planned...

He fell ill during a rainy night and woke up to find his arm broken, his phone gone, his personal doctor nowhere to be found, and himself in a regular hospital room. His dignity was in tatters!

"Leave..." He pinched the bridge of his nose, suppressing his irritation.

The girl was about to help him up. "Uncle Fu, where are you going?"

"Go! I said leave. I never want to see you again!"

"Wait, where's my phone?"

"Under the sofa at home." Cen Xiao opened the door and left.

Fu Zhengze: ...

Fu Zhengze: What do I do? I really want to lose it!

Cen Xiao had planned to get through this period in peace, then pay Fu Zhengze back and go their separate ways, owing each other nothing.

/3.

Everyone thought Fu Zhengze must hate her...

He had funded the astronomy club's observation trip in the snow. Outside the car, an upperclassman was calling out to her. Meanwhile, Fu Zhengze, the man she called Uncle, had red eyes as he threatened and coaxed her at once.

"Anyone but him."

"What about you?"

The curtain was lifted from the painting at the end of the second-floor hallway, and only then did his dark heart glimpse the light. Like a gloomy demon, he kept his eyes fixed on Cen Xiao all day long. The wicked thoughts stirring inside him made him want to chain her to his side.

The first heavy snow arrived, and the building stood empty. The high-and-mighty chairman of the Fu Group knocked on that door. Seeing the girl's shocked expression through the crack, his heart ached faintly.

"Cen Xiao, I can be that person too."

Fu Zhengze: Can't bend, can't compromise, and the most skilled person in history at letting off steam.

Cen Xiao: Can bend and adapt, never gives in to pressure, and is the best at sending it right back, twice as hard.

Bonus scenes:

/1.

Cen Xiao had had enough of his relentless pursuit. Without hesitation, she flung a bank card at his face.

"Here's what I owe you. Take it back."

Fu Zhengze touched his reddened cheek and chuckled.

"That was a good hit."

/2.

The tavern lights glittered. He Siyu, dead drunk beside him, berated him for being shameless.

"Don't you hate her?"

Fu Zhengze played with a pair of dice, his gaze clear as he thought of the girl shining onstage.

"I hate that she doesn't love me."

/1

The summer of her junior year, Li Yan refused to move abroad with her mother. After a huge fight, she signed up for the school's volunteer teaching program in the middle of the night.

She dyed her hair black, took off her earrings, and followed the group to a small town in western Sichuan, dragging an expensive suitcase behind her.

On the only bus to town, a man casually hefted her suitcase. The smile vanished from Li Yan's face in an instant.

Li Yan, her sworn enemy and... stepbrother?

She hadn't forgotten that their first meeting three years ago had been at that dinner... No, it was over a parking spot outside a hotel.

In the end, her mother and her boyfriend never got married, and things ended in a complete mess.

A distinguished master's graduate from Harvard, he had returned to China to start a business, only to go bankrupt overnight. If he hadn't known a little law, he might have been left with nothing but his underwear.

"You know each other?" The upperclassman offered to take her shoulder bag.

"No." She didn't even spare him a glance.

Li Yan understood the mockery in her eyes and spared no effort in taunting her.

"Miss Li, are you here to go skiing?"

Li Yan acted as if she hadn't heard him, waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

/2.

Li Yan looked down on this bankrupt swindler, and didn't believe for a second that he'd been volunteering here after disappearing for so long.

The two secretly competed and took turns hurting each other, going further and further down the path of opposition.

Until one day, rain leaked into their room, and they had no choice but to share a bed. In the darkness, every breath seemed amplified. Irritated, Li Yan reached out and touched something burning hot.

The person beside her sucked in a sharp breath, caught her hand, and gritted out in a hoarse voice:

"Stay away from me..."

"Sensitive skin?" She scratched his burning palm.

Li Yan had completely beaten him with her ironclad logic. For the first time, he lowered his head and begged:

"Miss, if you're not going to take responsibility, can you stop messing with me?"

Then, at a banquet, Li Yan got him cornered in the second-floor lounge. Pretending to be drunk, he put on a wounded expression and said:

"Our parents aren't getting married. How about we get married instead?"

Seeing the bed behind him, Li Yan couldn't help remembering the wild night before. She clutched her collar tightly.

"Who said I'd marry you?"

Li Yan was the one person in his glorious life that Li Yan couldn't handle. He gave a low laugh.

"Fine, I'll repay you with my body. How about you say I'm the one insisting on marrying you?"

Bonus scene:

/1.

"Li Yan, are you asleep?"

"No."

"Then... will you sleep with me?"

"? Why would I sleep with you instead of sleeping? Are you sick?"
