A younger, tsundere movie star who bends for love x a mysterious, elegant woman in power
As for how he ended up with Gu Shanyue, even Xie Zhao was surprised.
Born with a strikingly handsome face, he was discovered by a talent scout and reached the top as soon as he debuted. His very first film easily won him the Best Newcomer Award.
The higher you climb, the harder you fall. His smooth road to success made him far too arrogant, and after carelessly offending a few powerful men who had made their intentions clear, he naturally plummeted to the bottom.
When his manager drugged him and was about to send him to a man's bed, Xie Zhao saw Gu Shanyue in the midst of his despair.
Seated among the old men around her, whose average age was well over fifty, Gu Shanyue stood out all the more.
She wore a long black dress. Its expensive, luxurious fabric brought out her poise and elegance to perfection.
There wasn't a single unnecessary ornament. After all, everyone knew that as the sole person in charge of the Gu family, Gu Shanyue only had to sit there to embody capital itself.
At first, Xie Zhao braced himself against her pale wrist, sweat dripping from his brow onto his waist. He held on stubbornly and said he couldn't.
Later, at a banquet crowded with the powerful, Xie Zhao reverently kissed the corner of her lips in the darkness, then asked through gritted teeth, with careful restraint, why she wasn't looking at him.
He heard the woman's alluring laugh in the darkness. She teased him with breathtaking beauty, then stopped abruptly when he was at his most desperate, raised an eyebrow, and asked with a smile, “Mr. Xie, is it all right now?”
