The novel next door, Happy Island, is complete. Feel free to read it first.
Novel blurb: Gu Changzhou had a bad temper from a young age. But who would have expected him to come home on the very first day of international bilingual kindergarten with torn clothes and scratches at the corner of his mouth?
When Mrs. Gu asked the teacher, she learned that the little tyrant had been bullied at school by a chubby little girl. Apparently, she was the only student in the school who failed every subject, and had only been specially admitted as an “art student” because she was exceptionally talented at drawing. The little tyrant came home without a single complaint or insult. The next day, he brought two little cakes to school, and one of them apparently ended up smeared across the girl’s face.
Mrs. Gu was delighted: Sending him to school was worth it. They’d found someone who could keep the little tyrant in line.

Because she loved to eat, Jiang Youning stayed chubby from kindergarten through middle school. Then she suddenly shot up, and one day a post appeared on the school forum: “The talented young artist and the school beauty are actually the same person!” Gu Changzhou used his money and influence for the first time to get every secretly taken photo in the post deleted overnight. He then tracked down the poster, showed off the bite mark on his shoulder, and fiercely declared his claim.
“She’s mine. Don’t touch her. You’re not even allowed to look!”
#Gu Changzhou thought it would take just a hundred steps for him and Jiang Youning to go from classmates to lovers. He had already taken ninety-nine, and was only waiting for Jiang Youning to take the last one. But he never expected that all she had to do was crook her finger, and he would run like a dog to take that final step.

At the start of the new year, a fashion show for a new lingerie collection was held aboard a luxury cruise ship owned by the Gu Group.
The designer Jiang Youning, whose figure rivaled that of an international supermodel, came out holding her model’s hand and thanked the audience. Everyone’s gaze turned to her husband, who was seated among them.
That night, Gu Changzhou wore animal ears and a wolf tail at his waist, putting on a sexy, enthusiastic performance. After seeing Jiang Youning watch for a long time and finally nod in satisfaction, he leaned toward her, his eyes full of longing, and asked cautiously:
“Could you put on the new design you liked best today for me to see?”
