I'm building up a stockpile of chapters and will be launching soon.
A beautiful, kind-hearted researcher who talks a mile a minute VS a cool, abstinent tech tycoon who seems dark and twisted beneath his aloof exterior
Rekindled romance | Intense push and pull | The aloof beauty goes crazy for love
Blurb:
Five years ago, Cheng Wu wrote the ending of her relationship with Xie Lin with her own hands.
Rain poured down as she stood outside their rented apartment, smiling sweetly as she delivered the coldest words: “Happy birthday. Let's break up.”
“I'll become an excellent cardiac surgeon, just like my senior. You're not my type.”
They reunite five years later.
Her white coat has been replaced by a lab uniform, and she habitually keeps her right hand hidden.
He is now a rising star in AI healthcare, always in a suit and regularly featured in tech and finance news.
At a business reception, someone introduces her.
“Dr. Cheng?” Xie Lin says with a smile, swirling his wine. “What a coincidence. My ex was also surnamed Cheng, but she should be a doctor by now.”

Everyone says Cheng Wu is the gentlest, most approachable senior researcher in the lab. She prepares breakfast for interns who work late, collects empty drink bottles for the cleaning staff, and often murmurs gently to the stray cats downstairs at the research institute.
Only Xie Lin knows that's not who she really is.
After their negotiations, Cheng Wu smiles as she accepts the investment contract. But when they're alone, he grabs her by the waist. “You dumped me to go after your beloved senior, and now you're back to stringing me along. What is it, Dr. Cheng? Have you switched fields to study the behavior of heartless women?”
He says cruel things, but still cushions the back of her head with his hand so she won't hit the cabinet.
