Don't Leave Me Behind

Geng Wan was seriously injured on a mission. After a long recovery, she finally returned, ready to get back to work and prepare for her wedding. Then a refined-looking man showed up at her door with a child whose appearance was almost an exact copy of hers.

Geng Wan panicked, resisted, and questioned her entire life: I didn't do it! Don't even think about pinning this on me!

The man said nothing. He simply gazed at her with clear, limpid eyes, so pure they seemed to brim with water, his expression full of affection.

A wave of guilt washed over Geng Wan. She shook her head to clear it and regain her senses, then tried to negotiate amicably: I can pay child support, and we can take turns looking after the kid.

The man stayed silent, using that innocent, harmless face to wear down her defenses. But the moment she looked at him, he lowered his lashes and murmured, "I can raise the child. Just... don't leave me behind."

Geng Wan's heart lurched. Oh no. So he was after her, not just the child.

After thirty days of closed-door team training, Geng Wan came home exhausted and opened the door. The aroma of food greeted her. Clean clothes fluttered on the balcony, the house was spotless, and the child was sitting obediently in the room doing homework...

Jiang Lian set down the bowl of soup and greeted her with a gentle smile. "Would you like to eat first or shower first? I've already run your bath."

Geng Wan glanced at the lean, muscular waist cinched by his apron. Unable to resist, she reached out and gave it a feel. Firm muscles, and a very nice texture.

Jiang Lian immediately blushed and reminded her softly, "The child's awake, so it's not convenient... How about tonight?"

As time went on, Geng Wan found Jiang Lian more and more to her liking: obedient, sensible, considerate, gentle, and kind. Until one day, she accidentally caught him viciously insulting her former fiance, every word aimed straight at his heart. That's when she discovered his hidden side.

But what could she do?

He was just too dependent on her and too fond of her. That hardly made him a truly wicked person.

Being an independent man is all well and good, but Jiang Lian's ultimate goal in life is to be a devoted husband and father, doing everything he can to take care of his wife and daughter.

[Deputy Chief of the Economic Crime Investigation Team x Restaurant Owner]

[The heroine really was injured and lost her memory, and she will never regain it]

[The male lead is very manipulative, extremely so. He's scheming and intensely jealous. When competing for affection, he deliberately plays the victim, cries, and acts helpless. Readers who don't enjoy this kind of thing, please be warned]

[BG, BG, BG!! The heroine once had a loveless fiance. After breaking off the engagement, she got together with the male lead, so there's no cheating. The child is indeed the heroine's biological child. They were separated by circumstances beyond their control, so she did not abandon the child!]
