A beautiful, forceful, steely negotiation expert x an arrogant, frail young master who never runs out of dirty talk
I.
A bright, elegant, irresistibly charming woman
is Huai Chi's target.
He loves using the dim lighting of a bar as an excuse to slowly approach women, chatting and flirting with them.
Once he wins their favor, he runs away on the way to the hotel.
He likes watching them seethe in secret.
Who could have guessed that one moment of carelessness
would lead him to be tricked into drinking a glass of wine and spending a night of passion?
When he wakes, the man is furious.
The woman hooks a finger under his chin, her expression amused.
"You've played other people so many times. What's wrong with me playing you once?"
Huai Chi feels humiliated and enraged.
"What do you take me for?"
The woman shoots back,
"Obviously, the person you've pretended to be so many times. Aren't you good at acting?"
"Then keep acting."
Even when she sees how angry he is, she doesn't rein herself in.
She takes two bills from her wallet and tosses them onto the bed.
"Your skills aren't great. This is about all you're worth."
Huai Chi feels like he's about to vomit three pints of blood.
This woman must be his nemesis!
For the first time in his life, he swears
that he will pay her back for today's humiliation!
II.
Zhao Weijun is drinking at a club owned by a friend.
She casually points to the man standing in the shadows.
"He's no good."
Huai Chi has gone to great lengths to get in, and the moment he hears this, he panics.
"How would President Zhao know if I'm any good without trying me?"
Zhao Weijun smiles broadly.
"All right, let's find out."
She approaches him and whispers in a voice only the two of them can hear,
"Let's see if you've improved."
Huai Chi thinks he must be crazy.
He gives up the title of the Xiao family's young master
and shuts himself in his room every day to study all sorts of indecent skills.
But he enjoys every minute of it.
The two things Zhao Weijun says to him most often are:
"Well done. Keep it up."
And,
"Women don't like men who don't listen."
She is the tide,
while he gives everything he has just to draw it in.
Female lead is not a virgin; male lead is a virgin.
A playful young master meets a woman who's even more playful, and gets utterly defeated in no time.
