Dangerous Liaisons

Yu Jue first met Lin Xia at a family dinner, when Yu's mother took the woman's hand and introduced her with a beaming smile.

This is your younger brother's girlfriend.

The woman, in her early twenties, wore a pale-colored qipao. She had long legs, a slim waist, and fair skin, her figure perfectly proportioned.

When she bumped into Yu Jue, she politely said, "Sorry."

She was said to come from a family of scholars, and their families were well matched.

But Yu Jue saw at once that Lin Xia's identity was fake and her motives impure.

The second time they met, Yu Jue invited Lin Xia out alone.

"My brother is simple-minded. I'm not. Leave him alone. Name your price."

But the woman sat on her lap, leaned against her shoulder, and asked, "Just how unsimple are you?"

Lin Xia had always thought she didn't care about anything.

She had simply turned herself into a flame.

That flame had been kindled the moment her younger sister died by suicide after suffering from depression at the Yu family's villa.

She would burn justice into existence.

She would burn the truth into the open.

Even if it meant burning herself, she wouldn't stop.

The first time she encountered Yu Jue, the woman was leaning against a white wall, a white suit draped over one shoulder. Her gray eyes were veiled in mist. She swept a glance over Lin Xia, and in an instant, Lin Xia was plunged into the depths of the sea.

P.S. The younger brother is a pure, sweet, clueless patsy. Lin Xia never loved him and was only using him. There was more to her sister's death, and everyone in the Yu family is a good person.

An unconventional wife-chasing crematorium.
