A Debt of Sweetness

[Next book: The Devil's Secret Crush. Adorable and resilient heroine × a man with a split personality]

Synopsis

Scheming, shameless little fox × stern, fatherly CEO creditor

After Fu Zhixun became Tong Nian's creditor, she stopped calling him "Uncle."

Instead, she called him by his full name

That night in Jingang, the glittering city stretched out beneath their feet.

By the floor-to-ceiling window, she spoke in a sweet little voice: "Fu Zhixun... With a view this beautiful, don't you want to kiss me?"

Fu Zhixun fell silent for a moment, his voice cool. "What? My age doesn't bother you anymore?"

Tong Nian: "..."

Or she might be wearing a nightdress, when she'd suddenly turn over and straddle him.

An awkwardly intimate pose.

She took the opportunity to plead her case. "Fu Zhixun, I'm young and timid. Could you please not hold it against me?"

"Timid?" His eyes darkened, and a hint of huskiness slipped into his voice. "Do you know you're playing with fire?"

Tong Nian came to her senses and scolded him. "Fu Zhixun! You're being a pervert!"

He chuckled, his breath brushing her ear as he alluded to her proactive position on top of him. "Which one of us is the pervert tonight?"

-

Fu Ye, one of the three most powerful men in Beijing, had clawed his way out of a blood-soaked grave.

How could he fail to see the little schemes in the young woman's heart?

He hadn't taken the ridiculous "get out of paying" clause she'd added to their debt agreement seriously, dismissing it as a child's little game.

Who knew it would get so out of hand? Only then did he realize

He'd overestimated himself and underestimated her.

* Eight-year age gap, not actually uncle and niece

* The heroine is shameless and self-interested. This is a subjective reading experience, so please don't insult me if it's not to your taste.

* Mutual benefit vs. devoted, true love

* The heroine has her own career arc and will grow stronger later

Next book: The Devil's Secret Crush

Xie Sinan, her childhood friend who'd been out of touch for years, returned home and became Gu Ting Tang's roommate.

What Gu Ting Tang liked most about this familiar yet unfamiliar roommate was his one-in-a-million looks. What she hated most was his vicious mouth

"Nearsighted? If your eyesight's bad in your next life, remember to grow a little taller."

"You think I'd be interested in your little strawberry-print panties?"

"Gu Ting Tang, don't blow-dry your hair like that. People won't be able to tell whether you're facing them or the other way around."

Gu Ting Tang clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, putting up with the devil again and again.

The reason she kept enduring it was that late at night, this man became a completely different person.

In the moonlight, he was gentle and considerate, like an angel.

What's more, he pursued her passionately. With a face that handsome, Gu Ting Tang fell hard and couldn't pull herself away.

On the morning after they made their relationship official, Gu Ting Tang stopped Xie Sinan, who had just returned from exercising, before heading to work.

She rose on her toes to give him a sweet kiss, then winked at him. "I'm off to work."

As she passed him, she even brushed her fingers against the hand hanging at his side.

Xie Sinan stood there, stunned

This woman...

Had she been coveting his face for so long that she finally couldn't hold back?

From then on, Xie Sinan kept getting "felt up" by her out of nowhere. After it happened enough times, he started getting used to it.

Then, right at that moment, Gu Ting Tang discovered an astonishing secret

Her boyfriend only existed after midnight every night!!!

[There is an iron box in Xie Sinan's closet.

Inside, he keeps everything about Gu Ting Tang.

After all these years, she is everything to him.]

· I'll try to keep the tone light.

· The male lead has a split personality: sharp-tongued but soft-hearted / gentle and considerate.

· There are rivalry scenes between his personalities in the middle and later parts. Please read with caution if that's not for you.

· Happy ending, one-on-one romance.
