The Heiress of a Tycoon Family Wants to Date Me

The heiress of the Xie Group had never imagined that one day she would become prey in the jungle, hunted by others.

Driven into the jungle, she hid like a little dog, hoping she could go home, hoping someone would come to save her.

Mercenaries with dogs chased after her. Ants crawled over her beside the road, and leeches on the leaves could hardly wait to suck her blood.

All of it left her helpless and bewildered, but she still fought to survive.

Then someone suddenly appeared like a ghost and clamped a hand over her mouth and nose. Before Xie Changran could even react, she was knocked unconscious.

Cui Fu was a woman renowned in the mercenary and bodyguard worlds. As she neared retirement, she never expected to receive a personal request: go to the Mohe Jungle and rescue a foolish woman with nowhere to direct her overflowing kindness.

She cut off the long hair she had been growing for ages and took a five-million-euro advance to save her.

She crossed the jungle, fully armed, to rescue her.

Xie Changran had never met a woman so capable. No matter how badly injured Cui Fu was, she could endure it and lead her out of the encirclement.

No matter how much of a burden Xie Changran was, Cui Fu still saved her when their lives were on the line.

Xie Changran gazed at Cui Fu's taut jaw and her forever-unsmiling face, lost in thought. Could Cui Fu possibly like her?

The answer was no. In Cui Fu's eyes, she would always be just a client.

A mission that needed to be completed as soon as possible.

Xie Changran hoped Cui Fu would come to like her, but Cui Fu never responded. Falling in love with someone in this uninhabited, perilous jungle seemed both impossible and all too easy.

But Cui Fu never gave her a response. She always spoke in a stiff, matter-of-fact tone, and only came close when Xie Changran was sick.

Yet Cui Fu still put herself in danger for her. Cui Fu said it was the suspension bridge effect, and that once they returned to the real world, Xie Changran would get over it.

Xie Changran wondered: could that really be true?

A little survival scene after they find their way out:

Xie Changran: The wooden bed is too hard. Can I sleep lying on you?

Cui Fu, expressionless: No.

Xie Changran: Oh. (A disappointed little sweetheart.)

Xie Changran tries to persuade her again: If I don't sleep well, I won't be able to walk tomorrow.

Cui Fu, unmoved: Then get bitten to death by a snake.

Xie Changran: ...*sniffle*...

Xie Changran tossed and turned on the wooden bed all night, unable to sleep, and cried after being bitten by mosquitoes. ⊙﹏⊙

Cui Fu sighed: Come lie up here.

Eyes closed, Xie Changran happily rolled over and sprawled on top of Cui Fu, grinning as she snuggled against her.

Little scene two:

Xie Changran: Can I like you?

Cui Fu, expression cold: No.

Xie Changran: Why not!

Cui Fu: It would get in the way of collecting my final payment.

Heartbroken, Xie Changran chose to cling to Cui Fu and torment her...

And there were plenty more moments like that.

Theme: Even in hardship, never abandon one another or give up. Face every challenge together.
