What Kind of Flower Does She Want to Bloom?

[A seemingly gentle but actually scheming, competitive male lead x a sweet-faced, sharp-minded heroine who gets even]

Su He has three rules to live by.

1. Lust is a knife that cuts to the bone. Those who give in to it will end up destitute.

2. Refuse to compete with other women. Anyone with ambition can overthrow the ruler and claim the throne.

3. Revenge can wait overnight. Once you're strong enough, pay them back in kind.

She worked diligently for over twenty years and followed these rules perfectly, never once breaking them.

The day Shen Yun parachuted into the Shen Group, Su He heard plenty of gossip.

The Shen in Shen Yun was the same Shen as in the Shen Group.

He was the CEO's own grandson.

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he had the face of a male seducer, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, long legs, and an air of untouchable superiority.

Su He wasn't interested. She kept things strictly professional, had no time for romance or good looks, and was focused on getting ahead.

But...

After waking up sober from a company midyear dinner one time, she was confronted by Shen Yun, who looked furious and claimed she'd forcefully kissed him. He demanded an explanation, but she couldn't remember a thing.

She even found the accusation ridiculous.

Shen Yun was 189 centimeters tall. With a build like his, he should have been as hard to hold down as a pig waiting to be slaughtered for Lunar New Year. There was no way she could have pinned him down by herself.

Until... Shen Yun showed her the video...

Su He was devastated.

She... had broken her rules.

Reader advisory: The heroine starts out in a bad work environment. When she lacks the power to fight back, she keeps a low profile. But when she gets the chance, she strikes back, turns her life around through her own efforts, and climbs to the top. Please don't buy the whole book at once. Buy it one chapter at a time, and if you don't like it, feel free to drop it. I'll keep improving, and maybe we'll meet again when I do.

Shen Qingluo has a good-looking, deeply loving pair of parents.

Having grown up watching them feed each other dog food, she resolved to find a webtoon-worthy boyfriend with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.

But fate had other plans. Though she's sweet-looking, pretty, and the nth generation of a wealthy family, it seems she's been bound by some strange System. Every boyfriend she finds cheats on her within a month.

These scumbags each have their own explanation for cheating.

Scumbag No. 1: "I had a fever of 40 degrees and called you, but you told me to drink more hot water. What, were you hoping my temperature would reach your ideal level? She was worried about me and brought me medicine in the middle of the night!"

Scumbag No. 2: "I puckered up to kiss you, and you asked if I was cosplaying a gorilla from the zoo. You said the face I was making was disgusting, and that even a gorilla was easier on the eyes. She helped me regain my confidence in my looks!"

Scumbag No. 3: "I winked at you to flirt, and you said there was something wrong with my eyes. You booked me an appointment with an ophthalmologist that very day and told me to get treatment. She understands me!"

Scumbag No. 4: "I asked you to play games with me. You refused and said you'd rather play with a chicken, since if you scattered rice over the keyboard, even a chicken would deal more damage than me. She played ranked games with me day and night!"

There are countless reasons scumbags cheat. In short, they think she's not virtuous enough, not gentle or considerate enough, and not attentive or understanding enough. She doesn't have the qualities of a good wife and mother, yet they still covet her family's money and won't break up with her.

Shen Qingluo began to doubt herself. Her father reassured her: "You've only made the little mistake that all men make. They're just making excuses for cheating and trying to manipulate you. Give them a good beating and they'll behave."

Shen Qingluo understood.

Because her family was fabulously wealthy, they worried that bad people might target her, so they'd trained her from childhood. Taekwondo, judo, karate, sanda, Muay Thai... She had them all down pat.

She could tailor a whole set of moves to each scumbag and make every punch count.

Shen Qingluo kept going further down the road of exposing scumbags. She accepted her fate, thinking this was how her life would be.

One day, on a street corner, she saw a man dragging a little girl toward a car. The girl was struggling violently.

Shen Qingluo immediately thought of the cases she'd read online about girls being abducted and molested.

Furious, she rushed over and threw the man to the ground with a shoulder throw. Just as she was about to throw a left hook and a right hook, the little girl beside her burst into tears. "Who are you? Why are you hitting my brother?"

Shen Qingluo thought, I'm in trouble.

She nervously looked down at the man she'd pinned to the ground...

Broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs...

That face... Wasn't he the so-called campus heartthrob everyone at school raved about?!

[We were never meant to meet. I just had to throw a punch] [I tried to do the right thing and accidentally shoulder-threw my ideal type]

A straightforward heroine with maxed-out fighting skills x a seemingly lazy, carefree, but actually calculating and sly male lead

The heroine doesn't understand love at first. At most, she's held hands with someone.

Reader advisory:

The title Custom-Made Scumbags means choosing the right fighting style for each scumbag.

Both leads are virgins. One-on-one romance.

Theme: Love isn't everything.
