Hard to Cross

This story has been revised several times. Pirated copies are incomplete, so please support the official version. Before the college entrance exams, Shi Sui was forced to move in with a friend of her father’s. There she met his son, Yan Tingli. At the time, the boy stood on the stairs in a black turtleneck, radiating a cold stillness. He looked at her as if she weren’t there. He seemed not to know her, but Shi Sui knew who Yan Tingli was. He was refined and handsome, a top student famous throughout the school, admired by countless girls. She never imagined that once the door was closed, even a good student could shed his skin and devour someone whole. “I’m going to kiss you.” “I don’t want you to.” “Be good. Open the door.” Yan Tingli was sick. So, in college, Shi Sui secretly applied for an exchange program overseas and ran far away. She was afraid. - Years later, Shi Sui returned home. At a dinner between their parents, she saw Yan Tingli again. He was just as outstanding as expected: the CEO of a publicly listed company, riding high. He treated her like a stranger, as if the past had long since faded away. When an old classmate asked about their relationship, Yan Tingli simply said, “We’re not very close.” But not long after, all she did was accept a ride from a male colleague who happened to be going her way. That day turned into one long, reckless night. When she couldn’t hold back her sobs, she heard him whisper beside her ear, his voice trembling with delight: “Suisui, do you know how long it took me to find you?” “I finally caught you.” Timid, tender girl x refined scoundrel *As the blurb suggests, the hero is extremely possessive and very good at pretending to be normal, but he’s a total love-struck fool. The author’s favorite kinks are running wild; I just wanted to write about a scoundrel, so please go easy on me. Important: If you have high moral standards for the hero, do not read this. He is not a good person. If this isn’t your kind of story, don’t read it. It will definitely hit a nerve! And if you do read it, please don’t attack me everywhere. Thank you! Coming soon: Private Possession. Save it from the author’s page. In her junior year of college, Jian Yang started dating a boyfriend everyone envied. Jian Yang thought she was lucky too. Zhou Wenyu was handsome and intelligent. In their relationship, he was nothing like the distant person he was in public. He was attentive in every way, the perfect boyfriend who treated her like a princess. The only thing that scared Jian Yang was how clingy Zhou Wenyu was in private, as if he suffered from skin hunger. Apart from that, everything was perfect. As graduation approached, Jian Yang decided to return to her hometown for work. She didn’t want to leave Zhou Wenyu, but long-distance relationships had no future. It was enough that they had shared something beautiful. So, just before graduation, she broke up with him. Zhou Wenyu looked at her for a long time, then agreed with a smile, as obedient as ever. Jian Yang breathed a sigh of relief. As she was about to leave the city, Zhou Wenyu offered to see her off one last time. That day, Jian Yang accidentally fell asleep in his car. When she woke up, she was in a luxurious villa. Zhou Wenyu was holding her chin and licking her lips. His beautiful, glassy eyes were filled with an unsettling obsession. “Baby, I love you so much, so much, so much…” “If you say you want to break up again, can I just eat you up?” … “Didn’t we say we’d get married as soon as we graduated?” “Why don’t we get married today?” … Zhou Wenyu was an absolutely, spectacularly insane man. When Jian Yang realized this terrifying truth, she was horrified. -If you’re a butterfly who only wants to stop by for a little while, then when you spread your wings, I’ll turn you into a specimen and keep you by my side forever.
