[Please read the content warnings below the blurb before starting.] "In the kingdom she built by her own will, he was her most faithful believer." Sharp-tongued heiress from Beijing's elite circles vs. taciturn, cold-faced racing team owner [Love rivals / Stealing someone's partner] *Zhu Li dumped Chen Ye twice, and both times she disappeared without a word. 1. When they first met again, Chen Ye became Zhu Li's client. Zhu Li spent half the day feeling uneasy before realizing Chen Ye didn't seem to be looking for revenge. The two of them tacitly avoided mentioning their brief relationship. To outsiders, they were simply polite business partners. No one knew that Chen Ye went home after work every day to do Zhu Li's laundry and cook for her, and take care of her physical needs. In the end, Zhu Li brought home a man who looked about fifty percent like him and said, "Chen Ye, this is your older brother." Her childhood sweetheart. 2. They met again at a family dinner hosted by the Jiangs, where Zhu Li attended as Jiang Wei's girlfriend. She looked up and saw Chen Ye across the table, his expression cool and distant. Jiang Wei was busy peeling crab and shrimp for her, while Chen Ye watched coldly without saying a word. At the family dinner, an invisible tension simmered beneath the surface. That night, she slipped into Jiang Wei's room and wrapped her arms around his strong waist. Only after turning on the light did she realize she'd gone into the wrong room. There were red bite marks on Chen Ye's neck. His voice was hoarse. "Zhu Li, after all these years, you still have terrible eyesight." Zhu Li sensed trouble and turned to run, but Chen Ye grabbed her wrist. He bowed his head, his eyes filled with a sickly, obsessive devotion. "I can do anything Jiang Wei can." "Zhu Li, don't give up on me." - The more I love her, the more despicable I become. Reader's Guide: 1. [Must read] Early on, I played it safe to get the story approved, so before the paid chapters start, the female lead will approach and flirt with the male lead, and there will be scenes of her pursuing him in her imagination. Please don't read if this bothers you. If you really can't stand it, feel free to criticize me, but please don't attack the female lead. 2. The female lead acts according to her mood, treats life like a game, and is good at testing how obedient people are. Please don't read if that bothers you. 3. The male lead is sexually and emotionally inexperienced, and becomes a bit of a simp later on. Please don't read if that bothers you. 4. Happy ending, but there will be breakups and reconciliations along the way. 5. Please check for other content that may bother you as you go. I recommend subscribing one chapter at a time. Theme: Never give up on life.
