Xi Sen lived by the rules for twenty-three years. On her birthday, she did the most rebellious thing of her life. The day she met Zhou Huaiye, he was clutching a bouquet of roses while a female security guard from his company chased him away. She heard the words "irresponsible" and "living off a woman"...
Xi Sen looked at the man's devastatingly handsome face and held her breath as she swallowed.
Her ex, who had cheated on her that very morning, had been so arrogant and full of himself. His words echoed in her ears: "Xi Sen, she's just a fling. I'm handsome, and I make a seven-figure salary. Are you sure you can find someone better if you break up with me?"
Xi Sen wiped away her drool.
She'd found someone. He was so handsome he left that scumbag eight streets behind.
Xi Sen picked up the roses from the ground and met his cool, alluring eyes. Her heart skipped a beat, and she worked up the courage to ask, "Excuse me... how much does it cost to keep you?"
Not long afterward, people heard that the Zhou family's playboy had settled down, but no one believed it.
His lonely friend invited him out to have fun and called dozens of times. Finally, someone answered, sounding impatient.
After accidentally overhearing a story about Zhou Huaiye's wild past, Xi Sen glared at him.
Zhou Huaiye explained, "I used to be pretty wild. Now I've gone straight because I need to make a living."
A light, sweet short story, planned at around 100,000-plus words.
