[The main story is complete!!! Please add my upcoming story, Snowy Night Intoxication, to your reading list. The blurb is at the very bottom.]

[Mutual pining | Reunited after years apart | She pursues him, he confesses first | Male lead is decent and principled, with no romantic history and no kissing scenes | Daily updates at noon]

Lin Yitang is a well-behaved girl in everyone else's eyes, and a bona fide winner in life.

At a young age, she got into MIT, became a lecturer at a prestigious university, and moved into a mansion worth tens of millions.

Her only regret in life: she hasn't gotten together with her white moonlight yet.

Her white moonlight, Mo Chisheng, was a dazzling heartthrob and a gifted young man in high school.

He had a strange, contradictory sex appeal: a wildness that made you want to be swept off your feet, and an innocence that made you want to sweep him off his.

He was arrogant and uninhibited when he didn't smile, but sweet and carefree when he did.

Unfortunately, his family fell into ruin when he was eighteen. The young heir fell from grace overnight, burdened with debt, and disappeared.

The next time she heard his name, he'd become the film industry's most talked-about newcomer. A few years later, he rose to the top and became a celebrated award-winning actor.

Even after becoming famous, Mo Chisheng would often think back to that scene.

When he was eighteen, imprisoned, beaten, and forced to pay his debts, Lin Yitang stood before him, glowing from head to toe. She held his filthy body tightly, and he said the only thing he'd said all year: "Don't let me dirty you."

Over the years, those words were branded deep into his bones.

In his heart, she was refined, pure, beautiful, and sacred beyond profaning.

Then they reunited seven years later and began working together. His rose-colored glasses shattered into pieces...

"Lin Yitang, where are your eyes looking?"

"Lin Yitang, where are your hands going?"

"Lin Yitang, your hand... do you dare go any lower?"

[Refined on the surface, a seductive, scheming, ambitious female entrepreneur who knows how to lure him × an innocent, devoted, beautiful, powerful, tragic award-winning actor]

[I can cross the wind and rain and brush away the snow and ice, because the crabapple in my heart is still there., Mo Chisheng]

[Plenty of chapters already written. One-on-one, both leads' first relationship, happy ending]

Snowy Night Intoxication

[Extreme push and pull | Going crazy for love | Taking someone by force | Angsty groveling arc]

Gu Yuzhou, a young aristocrat from Beijing's elite circle, has been cool and indifferent toward everyone since childhood, bored by people and arrogant enough to be infuriating. The only exception is his childhood sweetheart, Song Zhiyi. He's tender and warm with her, treating her as if she might break, even kneeling to straighten her skirt. Everyone in their circle knows it.

Yet Song Zhiyi broke up with him when the Gu family fell on hard times.

Eight years later, no one could have imagined that Gu Yuzhou would rise to the top of the business world at such a young age. Everyone thinks the ungrateful Song family is in for it now, and that they might not survive this winter.

But Song Zhiyi is sitting on Gu Yuzhou's lap in the cozy warmth of his private residence, brazenly declaring, "Gu Yuzhou, this is all your fault. That Zhu guy is bullying me, using your name to demand a 20% price cut. So I'm raising the price by 20%, and making him pay for it."

Gu Yuzhou holds a cherry between his lips and leans in to feed it to her. His eyes soften with affection. "All right. Don't be mad. You'll get what you want."

-

Gu Yuzhou absolutely will not fall in love with Song Zhiyi again.

Even if she's beautiful and full of life, captivating and formidable, even if his DNA inexplicably only comes alive for her. She abandoned him when he needed her most. He refuses to fall in the same place twice.

Later, when he sees her giving another man an admiring, respectful look, he pins her against the door and lifts her leg.

He hears his own voice, undeniably obsessive and unhinged, yet humble as dust: "Make it up to me, and I'll agree to anything."

-

A little scene

One day, Song Zhiyi sincerely praises Pei Qingge: "A model patriotic young man."

That evening, Gu Yuzhou holds her by the fireplace, leaving her drenched in sweat. He wipes the moisture from the corner of her eye with his fingertip and hoarsely demands, "Now do you know who's on top?"
