A Toxic Relationship

#MaleSubstitute

-

Getting involved with Liang Yu isn't easy.

He's handsome, surrounded by countless girls, and comes from an enviable family. He hardly takes anyone seriously.

He also has a truly twisted sense of fun.

To please him and play the role of his older brother's substitute, Ye Lai hides her claws and puts on the persona of a gentle girlfriend.

People say the Liang family's young master is cold. He gets whatever he wants, and that includes love.

Being with him means inviting trouble.

But Ye Lai proves them wrong, staying by his side day after day.

The day he found out he was a substitute came soon enough.

She thought he would be shaken, but surprisingly, he was perfectly calm.

On the sofa, the man crossed his legs. The dim light traced his striking features as he casually joked in front of everyone, "I don't care anyway."

But as soon as they were alone, he went mad, tearing at her swollen lips, his eyes bloodshot. "If I weren't him, would you let me touch you here?"

Of course, the answer was yes.

Liang Yu thought he was born cold-hearted. It turned out she was the one without a heart.

That relationship came to an end, and Ye Lai found someone who resembled him more. She asked to break up.

Liang Yu, played like a fool, grabbed the hem of her clothes and shoved her against the wall. His words were vicious. "Get out. Once you leave, don't come back!"

Yet afterward, whenever she went on a date, she kept spotting him.

Her boyfriend turned his head and smiled at her. "That young master from the Liang family seems to be watching you."

Ye Lai didn't even look up. "Does he? I don't really know him."

Not long ago, in a fitting room, he had undone her buttons and humiliated her with his words. "Whose technique is better?"

The thing Ye Lai regrets most is getting involved with Liang Yu. She thought he didn't care about anything, but it turned out he had a possessive streak.

To pay for her mother's medical treatment, Ye Lai went to him.

In the center of the hall, the man looked down at her and pointed to her heart, his tone teasing. "You know what to do, don't you, good girl?"

He wanted her to stay by his side forever.

Even if she was just a substitute.

What they had was a sordid relationship that had to stay hidden.

Note:

1. A melodramatic story with lots of elements.

2. Neither lead is a good person in the traditional sense. Please don't judge them.

3. If anything makes you uncomfortable, please stop reading. Don't tell me about it.

Both leads are each other's first love and have only been with each other. The male lead is pure in both body and heart; the female lead has a crush on his older brother.
