Spring Grace, Dewy and Rich

To everyone, the Huo clan, a prominent family that had stood unshaken in Wancheng for a thousand years, was an existence fit only to be admired from afar.

Huo Lan, the only son of the Huo family, was aloof and refined, blessed with striking looks. He was often seen holding a string of Buddhist prayer beads, seemingly free of worldly desires and indifferent to women, like snow atop a lofty mountain.

That was until one night at a grand banquet, when everyone noticed a wedding ring on the ring finger of this man who seemed as composed as a Buddha.

When Jiang Shiyuan first met Huo Lan, he was sipping tea and fingering his prayer beads, distant and aloof. When she walked in, he could not even be bothered to raise his eyelids.

In a daze, she flirted with him a couple of times, and somehow managed to bring this unattainable beauty down from his lofty perch.

The next time she saw Huo Lan, the red sandalwood prayer beads on his wrist gleamed with a rich luster. He still carried himself as if he looked down on all living beings, yet he lifted her onto the desk and penned her in with both hands braced against it. His tall frame loomed over her, leaving her nowhere to run.

He buried his face in the crook of her neck, almost greedily breathing in her scent. "The hydrangeas at Huo Manor are blooming. They need someone to admire them..."

His warm breath brushed her neck, tickling her until her scalp tingled. She stiffened. "Huh?!!!"

With a deep smile, he moved her hand aside and traced her wrist down to her fingertips. As their fingers interlaced, he nestled the prayer beads between them. "Move into Huo Manor. Besides, we're so compatible, aren't we?"

At first, she thought this refined man had simply been celibate for too long and was only looking for something new.

But as time went on, each intimate encounter grew more intense.

On a dewy spring night, he laid a hand on her belly, his eyes filled with longing and desire for her to bear his child...

1. He takes her by force and she runs while he chases; the powerful man bows his head for love.

2. The heroine is an antique restoration specialist, and the hero comes from a thousand-year-old aristocratic family. The family has a lot of land, a lot of people, a lot of rules, and a lot of invented details. Don't overthink the accuracy.

3. A "soft and sweet" beauty x a refined scoundrel. The hero is pure in both body and heart, and no one but the heroine is allowed near him!
