Little White Rabbit vs. Big Bad Wolf | Ten-year age gap | Marriage first, love later | The male lead has been plotting this for a long time | Sweet romance
[The blurb may be revised, but the story won't change]
The Jiang and Xie families had long ago arranged a marriage between their children.
Before Jiang Youtang had even graduated from college, she was told that her intended was Xie Jing, the youngest son of the Xie family.
Everyone in Beijing's high society knew that Xie Jing was a notorious playboy who had never spent a second night in the same woman's bed.
With a weak-willed mother and an overbearing stepfather, Jiang Youtang had little power to resist.
-
The day before the engagement party, she did the most rebellious thing of her life:
She risked everything and barged into the villa of Xie Zixiu, the man who really held power in the Xie family and Xie Jing's third uncle.
The trembling girl was led by the butler into Xie Zixiu's study.
She didn't dare look up. Shaking with fear, she told the biggest lie of her life: "Mr. Xie... I like you. Would you marry me?"
For a long time, there was no reply from behind the desk.
She cautiously raised her lashes a little and caught a glimpse from the corner of her eye. The man was leaning against the desk, one hand in his pocket. The raised hem of his suit jacket revealed a small strip of his trouser suspenders, making him look both sexy and dangerous.
His hands were large, the veins standing out on their backs, and they seemed to radiate heat.
At the time, Jiang Youtang had only one thought: he was about to grab her with that hand and throw her out.
But later, those hands held the back of her head, her waist, and her legs, and soothed away every grievance and resentment she had ever felt.
