Springtime Wild Geese Return [Beijing Circle]

【Possessive Pursuit】【Stealing Someone’s Girl】【Love Rekindled】 Everyone in their circle knew that the third son of the Xie family was the most mysterious. He lived overseas and rarely showed his face. He didn’t even have any obvious businesses under his name, yet he could always get things done that others couldn’t. Lazy and laid-back, he seemed to care about nothing. Plenty of people tried to get close to him, but no one could find a way in. No one expected him to suddenly throw his weight behind the Gu family’s major project in the port city. Outsiders speculated that the Xie and Gu families were considering a marriage alliance. After all, the Gu family’s young master had broken up with his beloved girlfriend, the woman he’d been preparing to propose to. Then someone saw Mr. Xie himself pinning the young master Gu’s ex-girlfriend beneath his arm outside Huimingzhai. His gaze was fierce as he said, “Ye Xingxing, listen to me. I’ve never been gentle or kind. Damn it, I’ve wanted you from the very beginning.” Later, people in their circle said that Miss Ye was quite a catch. First the young master Gu had waited on her hand and foot, and now Mr. Xie, the third son of the Xie family, had remained unmarried for her. Someone saw her at an inn in Chenzhou and ventured to ask, “Miss Ye, are you planning to return to the capital?” Ye Xingxing smiled brightly. “I’m getting married.” The next day, a special flight route was approved in the capital. Xie Lin appeared before her with bloodshot eyes. “Ye Xingxing, if you dare get married, I’ll drag you away.” His words were harsh, but he buried his face in the crook of her neck. “I can’t take this anymore. Please, love me, okay?” [You are the hunger of my heart, something I’ve schemed for with all my might.] Both leads are sexually inexperienced. The heroine shares intimate moments, including hand-holding, embraces, and kisses, with the second male lead, but nothing more. The heroine’s original name is Pu Qiaoning. There’s a reason for the name used in the blurb, so please don’t attack anyone over it. -- Check out my other capital-city romance, The Illusion of Love. Please add it to your reading list! Shen Yihuan went to considerable lengths to get close to Xie Zhiyou. Everyone said that Mr. Xie disliked women and had never been seen with a female companion. His whereabouts were a closely guarded secret, and no one could get near him. Shen Yihuan got lucky and found the house where he lived. Every day, she wandered back and forth outside. One day she’d show up bare-faced and understated, the next dressed up in a bold, glamorous style. On weekends, she wore twin ponytails and a frilly dress. Eventually, the local police station took her in as a suspicious person. That was how Shen Yihuan finally met Xie Zhiyou. He was aloof and dignified, exactly how she imagined the most powerful people in their circle would be. Sitting below him, she looked up and said, “Mr. Xie, I’m just captivated by your presence and wanted to see more of you.” == Xie Zhiyou was always trying to figure out what Shen Yihuan was after. She was obedient and understanding, full of tricks. Even when they were intimate, she was like a consummate actress, playing her part with passion and sincerity. Every day she told him, “Mr. Xie, I love you so much,” but never once asked him for anything. He thought the time wasn’t right yet. As long as she still had ambitions, she wouldn’t leave. He never expected her to vanish without a trace one day. The night before, she’d still been smiling brightly. Now she was gone, leaving behind only a note. 【Goodbye, Mr. Xie. I wish you well.】 == At first, Xie Zhiyou was furious. If she ever showed up in front of him again, he’d make her pay. But when the young woman appeared with her arm hooked through someone else’s, smiling as she called out, “Mr. Xie,” all he wanted was to break that arm. This was a sham romance, a performance of affection. I played my part with conviction while you watched coldly from the sidelines. So when the story finally ended, I took my bow and left, but you couldn’t escape your role. Capital-city tycoon vs. devious schemer Theme: Study hard and keep improving every day.
