Crossing the Green Mountains

◎ Before: Wild wolf boy x weepy girl

◎ After: Cruel, reckless, bite-crazy man x gentle, quiet young lady from a wealthy family

◎ Height difference | Reunited after years apart | Overbearing possessiveness | Utterly cheesy romance

01

Wu Han and He Dan first met in a remote mountain, in the teeth of a bitter northern wind. He came with the wolves, bowing his head and baring his maw, his cruel fangs pressing into her throat as if he could tear it apart in a single bite.

Ten years later, the extravagantly wealthy He family of Liancheng welcomed home their long-lost ancestor.

The young man had a cool, handsome face. In full view of everyone, he reined in his arrogant pride, leaned his elbow on the railing, and looked down languidly.

The next moment, a familiar, sweet fragrance drifted into his nose. He Dan couldn't help stealing a few glances at a figure downstairs.

Everyone in high society knew He Dan was obsessive and violent, cold-blooded in his methods, like a wild dog let loose from a mental hospital. But with the backing of the richest family and a disastrous level of good looks, he had followers in droves.

Ignoring all the flattery, He Dan took an unconventional route and singled out the Wu family, the only family that hadn't offered up a daughter for marriage, to receive his generous offer.

Wu Han's father immediately announced that Wu Han was already engaged to another young gentleman. At the same time, he humbly brought her to the He residence to apologize.

But before they could even bring up breaking the engagement, they were forcibly sent away. They never imagined He Dan would defy convention and keep their beloved daughter there on her own.

Indoors.

The man radiated force and smiled carelessly. "You trespass on my territory and still expect to run?"

He Dan easily blocked every escape route. His narrow black eyes were full of provocation as he tugged at the collar of her clothes. "Think I'm too wild?"

"Absolutely not!" Wu Han earnestly praised him with her little face. "Everything has its own laws of survival, and most people can only master one set in their entire lives."

"But you can master two sets at once, so you're super impressive!"

He Dan's eyes sharpened. Then he suddenly smiled. "Do you know how the wolf king's laws of survival say he should court a mate?"

His thumb rubbed against his sharp fangs as his gaze lingered wickedly on the deep red rising on the girl's neck. He spoke in a shamelessly brazen drawl. "If you want it, take it."

"Sniff, bite, and..."

His wild, fierce words grazed her ear. "Pin her down in front of everyone."

"And go at it like crazy."
