Deliberate Seduction

[Flirtatious at a whim | Flirty playgirl x Deliberately seductive | Alluring, innocent-looking schemer]

Qiao Guiyi first met Cheng Cian at a bar. Beneath the colorful chandelier, he stood tall and graceful, like a pristine cedar untouched by dust.

She was only looking to have some fun when she grabbed his collar and borrowed a kiss.

It was only a kiss at the corner of his lips, but the scent of bamboo after rain clung to her heart first.

She pursued him carefree, certain this was just another fleeting affair, never realizing she'd misjudged him.

At first, she thought he was a gentleman who said "It's fine" after someone spilled a drink on him.

Later, she realized he was the real deal: "I'm fine. It's all my fault. Don't blame him."

When his lies came to light, she finally realized that his coy refusals at the bar, his come-hither wet-shirt act on a rainy night, and the keychain he happened to drop had all been deliberate.

After their breakup, Qiao Guiyi's best friend arranged a lavish party to comfort her after she'd been deceived.

A young, handsome puppy-eyed guy won a promise from Qiao Guiyi:

"When you become an international supermodel, I'll marry you."

A moment later, everyone saw the new heir to the Cheng family hurry over. He glanced at the puppy-eyed guy being carried in with a guitar, then lowered his eyes. "Young men these days are so talented. Unlike me, I grew up poor and couldn't afford guitar lessons."

"But if you like it, I can learn."

Everyone: ...?

Wasn't the new heir supposed to be ruthless and merciless?

-

Cheng Cian always thought Qiao Guiyi liked his gentle, accommodating facade. But she remembered that day when he pinned someone against the wall and disdainfully wiped the blood from his face. The cruelty in his eyes vanished the instant he saw her.

She had unexpectedly glimpsed a flower blooming toward the sun from the depths of an abyss.

Below is the upcoming story, After the Patron Dies, His Canary Goes on a Rampage

Shi Su is the youngest director in the history of the Ability Administration Bureau, and the only king to rise to power over the corpse of his predecessor. Wherever his ability reaches, even the gods bow.

And yet he has an aloof, aristocratic beauty, like a pile of snow atop a high mountain, too sacred to touch.

Rumor has it he has four rumored girlfriends: the seductive, glamorous leader of an ability-user organization; a military strategist clever as a fox; the spoiled, willful granddaughter of a political heavyweight; and a gentle, kind-hearted fellow doctor.

Everyone wonders which of them will end up marrying him.

Then one day, he spends a fortune at an underground auction to buy a canary.

The canary is breathtakingly beautiful, able to captivate anyone with a single glance. But aside from her looks, she is useless, a little thing who even needs to be carried when she goes out.

Everyone looks down on her, yet they all want her for themselves.

-

The Ability Administration Bureau is haunted by an unspoken curse: every director meets a gruesome end. The previous director was cut down by his own disciple, Shi Su, and now the curse seems to have caught up with Shi Su as well.

During a rescue mission in an uninhabited zone, Shi Su and his twelve trusted subordinates vanished into the heart of a deadly predicament, never to be seen again.

Everyone divided up his power and wealth, as well as the little bird he kept at home.

They cornered the canary in the Shi family villa and even started a livestream.

On camera, the stunningly beautiful but helpless canary looked frightened and tearful. She slowly raised an arm as pale as a lotus root and lightly pointed at the men before her.

The men all exploded.

Literally exploded!

The viewers outside the camera exploded, too!

Why would a powerhouse capable of killing ability users of the same rank in an instant choose to be a canary?

-

Zhuo Zhiyu's ability is marking. If she makes eye contact with someone for three seconds, she can mark any soul in the world and make them serve her, ready to do her bidding.

Except for Shi Su, who has the ability to devour.

She secretly tried several times, but failed every time.

Until one day, this king of ability users bowed his proud head and willingly offered her his soul.
