#She Is the Addiction He Tries to Hide#
[Unrepentant gentlemanly scum CEO x gentle, resilient, sensitive secretary]
*Intense push and pull / Mutual pining pays off / Cunning with an unexpected side / Steamy office romance*
1.
Jin Yuanyu is widely known in their social circle as a gentleman: elegant and refined, with no shortage of admirers around him.
As his secretary, Wen Li knows better than anyone that no matter how many women flock to him or admire him from afar, he never takes any of them seriously.
Except for the woman chosen by the old master. She is the only one he will marry.
She knows even better that between the two of them, there is more than a boss and a subordinate. There is also an insurmountable gulf.
But in the dead of night, she can never forget that moment from the past:
The aloof, proud boy shed his refined airs, lowered his head, and held her injured ankle. His voice was so soft, as if he were afraid of startling her. "Be good. Let your big brother take a look."
Nor can she forget what came later:
The man held a cigarette in one hand and pulled her onto his lap with the other. His fingertips brushed her full red lips, his careless smile wicked and dangerous.
2.
Even the most persistent dream is still only a dream. Wen Li remains clear-eyed: the undercurrents she once glimpsed in his eyes weren't love.
She had thought too highly of herself.
On the day she resigns, she accidentally takes hold of the leash of another vicious dog.
The usually unruly Second Young Master Jin, Jin Zhixing, not only becomes docile and obedient for her, but personally places her on the throne of Mrs. Jin.
As Wen Li is being proposed to, the usually composed Eldest Young Master Jin's eyes redden.
On the dark sea, the lights of the cruise ship shine brilliantly.
Two rows of bodyguards stand at attention. No one dares approach the sealed storage room.
In the narrow space, tuberose blends with the rich, mature scent of agarwood.
Wen Li has nowhere to run. The dense heat traps her delicate body, and faint handprints appear on the glass window.
The man leans close to her ear, wearing an evil smile. His hoarse voice is more entranced than she has ever heard it: "Want a title? Why didn't you say so sooner? As long as you're good, baby, Big Brother will give you one."

*Male lead's unrequited love / Rekindled romance / Stealing someone's girl for thrills*
1. The first time Song Zhiyi met Qi Zhiang was on the day her boyfriend stood her up to accompany his "little cousin."
Amid the endless rain, a Bentley sat quietly in the downpour.
She fell helplessly onto the driveway, as fragile as a white rose snapped by wind and rain.
The window slowly lowered, revealing the sharp, pale profile of a young man. His dark eyes settled on her, with a hint of schadenfreude. "Jiang Chiyan didn't come with you?"
Jiang Chiyan was her boyfriend's name.
And he and Qi Zhiang were best friends.
Not long after...
On a dark spring night, rain poured outside the window, and the air inside the car was just as damp.
A pair of large hands held the young woman's slender waist. The man leaned over and kissed and nipped at one of her fragrant shoulders, their breaths mingling with heat.
Again and again, he murmured coaxingly:
"Dump him and be with me, okay?"
2. The heir of the Qi Group, the young master whom even the powerful addressed respectfully as Young Master Qi, was rich, influential, and blessed with a face of the highest caliber.
No one would ever connect him with his best friend's ex-girlfriend.
Until one day, someone posted a photo on the forum:
The usually aloof and proud Young Master Qi was sharing an umbrella with a beautiful ballerina in the rain. His coat was draped over her, while half his own body was soaked.
3. When they meet again three years later, his expression is unfamiliar and indifferent, without the slightest trace of emotion at their reunion.
The moment he turns away, though, his eyes quietly redden.
No one knows that the proud man is already mad with joy inside.
Song Zhiyi always thought she was the first to fall for him.
It isn't until he shows her a photo of herself from ten years ago at their wedding that she understands: his love began long before they met. The untouchable star in the heavens had already been engraved with her name.
"Others pluck stars for you; I'll keep the sun spinning with you."
Theme: Break free of constraints and pursue love and freedom.

Although the younger brother is unclean, the brother's rice bowl is delicious when you think about it. The two mad dogs tried their best to compete for Lili's attention and love on the bed [Clown][Clown][Clown][Orange Candy] and got it
It's twelve o'clock, I don't want to know it in seconds 😳 The "happy" nightlife has just begun
Akito doesn't tell secrets, I like this kiss [Spread Flowers][Orange Candy]
Ah ah ah, it wasn't locked just now. It was locked when I was about to look at it 😭
Why is it locked? Wuwuwuwuwu.
Ahhhh, it's so exciting. I want to see my little sister get angry because my brother does too much and is so sweet and sweet. I let my brother sleep on the sofa or in the guest room for a week and then he coaxes my little sister to 😚 her.
The two of you should talk everything over quickly. Don't feel insecure anymore.
Ah, my sister is my brother's antidote. Will they have children of their own?
It hurts so much to see it [bursts into tears] When will it start to be sweet [let me be healthy]
