At a Peninsula banquet, a group of young men and women who knew one another fairly well sat around playing the old-fashioned game of Truth or Dare, mainly to dig up some gossip and have fun.

Ji Xing was terribly unlucky that evening and got a truth question:

[When was your last kiss?]

Her usually languid eyes flickered. She waved a hand. "Never."

Her friends groaned. Jiang He, who had been silent the whole time, sat diagonally across from her and watched with an indifferent gaze.

During the break, Ji Xing left the table and went to a secluded corner of the covered walkway to unwind.

A flame flared, and a thin stream of white smoke rose from the faint orange glow.

She had just breathed out a puff of smoke when someone grabbed her by the waist and pinned her in place. She turned and saw that familiar, boring, chaste-looking face through the haze.

The man laughed in disbelief, lowering his lashes. "Never?"

Ji Xing tried to break free but couldn't. Stubborn and unwilling to lose, she simply nodded. "That's right, because your kissing skills are terrible."

She enunciated every word, pointedly.

Jiang He raised one brow and let out a rare, mischievous laugh. Leaning close, he murmured in a low voice, with a hint of regret, "Is that so? Then I have to make it up to you with the best kiss you've ever had."

At his words, Ji Xing grew wary and tried to run. Her cigarette fell to the ground, scattering sparks.

In the dim covered walkway, their lips and breaths mingled, their breathing heavy.

Half a minute later, Jiang He, satisfied, reached out and brushed Ji Xing's reddened lips.

"I'm very satisfied with this one. What about you?"

In just two years, Lingjiang Group rose from the brink of collapse to reclaim its place as an industry leader. In an instant, rumors about the mysterious eldest grandson of the Jiang family ran wild throughout the business world.

The day after returning to China, Jiang He launched a sweeping reorganization of the group. His imposing presence lived up to his name.

From then on, everyone in the industry knew him as ruthless and merciless.

This decisive man happened to possess an exquisitely handsome face: refined brows, bright eyes, and sensual lips. Countless women lost their hearts to him.

Gossip outlets repeatedly ran with rumors such as "Cold-blooded Jiang He meets someone secretly late at night," but every time, the stories vanished from the trending topics in less than five minutes.

After a brief period of calm, another hashtag made the trending list:

#Jiang He May Marry Into the Ji Family: Romance or Charity?#

As netizens gossiped, they speculated how many minutes it would take for this one to be taken down.

- "The Ji family isn't what it used to be. It's on its last legs."

- "Heh. The more spoiled they used to be, the harder they'll fall now."

- "Waiting for President Jiang to face-slap the Ji family."

The next day, a newly created user topped the trending list:

User 7864314521 V: Neither. This is a relationship I insisted on pursuing.

The verified account "Jiang He of Lingjiang Group" left the public speechless.

That night, scattered stars humored the moon. The atmosphere was hazy and seductive. He held her hand, kissing from her neck to her lips, trembling with restraint.

In a low, hoarse voice, he coaxed her: "Xingxing, tell me you love me. Tell me we're fated to be together. Tell me you haven't stopped wanting me."
