The Actress Auntie Knows How to Teach

Black-bellied young CEO x cool, gentle award-winning actress

Blurb:

After Jiang Chuyao's mother died, her relatives became cold toward her, and she was the subject of constant criticism.

She endured that miserable life for a long time.

Then one day, after school,

one of her mother's closest friends came to see her. She gently told Jiang Chuyao that she was her favorite child, then asked if she would like to come home with her.

Jiang Chuyao was taken in by Lin Ling, who raised her.

From that moment on, Jiang Chuyao saw Lin Ling as her goddess and vowed to treat her well for the rest of her life.

But as she grew up, Jiang Chuyao realized her feelings for Lin Ling had gradually changed.

She couldn't stand seeing Lin Ling get close to anyone else. She wanted Lin Ling to love only her.

But Jiang Chuyao knew Lin Ling would see those feelings as dark, twisted, and shameful.

So she was careful, holding herself back and keeping her feelings in check.

Until Lin Ling saw through her feelings, which had been exposed without either of them realizing it, and her gentle rejection struck Jiang Chuyao right in the heart.

"Yaoyao, you're still young. You should have a life of your own."

The last thread of Jiang Chuyao's restraint snapped, and she began to act without a care.

She was determined to break through the boundaries and drag Lin Ling down with her.

The room was dark, and the air was thick with the smell of alcohol.

Jiang Chuyao asked her one word at a time, "Admit it, Aunt Lin. You like me too."

"Are you going to turn your back on me like you did before?"

Jiang Chuyao had expected to hear the same rejection from Lin Ling again.

But at that moment, Lin Ling leaned in and kissed her.

Jiang Chuyao froze, her breathing growing ragged. Then she heard Lin Ling say to her,

"Be good."

Reading guide:

1. A slow-burn, sweet romance with a living-under-one-roof setup and a fourteen-year age gap. Watch a giant Samoyed get tamed.

2. The story was written by my best friend's cat. The author herself is terrible at logic and plotting! (Take note!)

3. They become family because of special circumstances. They aren't registered in the same household. There is no romance before adulthood, and everything happens after they are adults living independently.

4. Same-sex marriage is legal in this setting. 1v1, both are each other's first.

Theme: A love that embraces differences
