@A powerful woman who lowers her head for love
That year, Yu Zhaokui suddenly became famous, but her company forced her to entertain clients and then put her on ice. Countless people offered to keep her, and in the end, someone even drugged her.
Just then, a woman walked into her world.
The woman was named Leng Shouqing, the person in control of the Leng Group, which owned hundreds of branches across China and overseas.
She had a cool, distant air and dressed in neat, sharp outfits. She seemed to be wrapped in an impenetrable ‘bulletproof vest.’
That innate sense of distance added to her already striking presence, making her seem like an untouchable flower on a mountaintop. No one would dare entertain the slightest improper thought about her.
And yet someone like her had personally come to the door of a small-time star in the middle of the night to offer her a contract.
Having seen this sort of thing too many times, Yu Zhaokui asked outright, “President Leng, are you asking me to be your lover for a few years?”
Leng Shouqing replied with a cool expression, “I’m straight.”
Yu Zhaokui: ?
It was only when Yu Zhaokui looked through the contract that she realized it wasn’t a contract to keep her at all, but a proper talent-management agreement.
Later, Yu Zhaokui recognized the other woman as someone she had known when she was young and asked for her contact information, but Leng Shouqing repeatedly turned her down with a cold expression.
Yu Zhaokui abandoned the idea and deliberately kept her distance. Leng Shouqing, on the contrary, began approaching her, but by then Yu Zhaokui had already lost her trust in her.
From the bottom’s perspective
Leng Shouqing thought she would spend her whole life silently protecting Yu Zhaokui as a ‘straight woman.’ Then one day, she discovered a few things and could no longer suppress the mad love surging inside her.
Leng Shouqing posted a question online: How can I make the person I secretly love fall for me without scaring her away?
The top-voted answer summed it up in four words: Tease and seduce.
People had always rushed to curry favor with her, flatter her, admire her, and fear her.
And now they expected her to lower herself and learn the tactics she despised most?
What a joke!
There was no such thing in her dictionary as…
The next second, Leng Shouqing’s thoughts were completely swept away. Yu Zhaokui appeared in her line of sight and smiled at her.
So, tease and seduce, was it? She’d make an exception and give it some thought.
One day after they got together, Yu Zhaokui went to the Leng Group to see Leng Shouqing. She pushed open the door and called out, “Honey, ”
Several executives in suits stood around the desk, ramrod straight, clutching folders. Their expressions were as grave as if they were attending a life-or-death military meeting.
Seeing the others in the room, Yu Zhaokui quickly swallowed the last syllable and changed course. “President Leng is my boss. I’m here to see her.”
Hearing the first half of what she’d said, Leng Shouqing raised an eyebrow slightly and tapped her fountain pen on the desk. “That’s all for today.”
After everyone had left, Leng Shouqing glanced at the clock on the wall, picked up a piece of candy from her desk, and slowly took the unwrapped sweet between her lips.
Remembering the unfinished kiss from that morning, Yu Zhaokui swallowed unconsciously. “Is it sweet?”
“Sweet.” Leng Shouqing gazed straight at her and licked her lips.
Yu Zhaokui’s mind went blank, and she couldn’t help kissing her…
Who knew how much time had passed when the office door opened. A group of reporters, photographers, and business partners stood in the doorway, all frozen in shock.
Yu Zhaokui braced both hands on the arms of the chair, boxing Leng Shouqing in. The woman in her arms tilted her head back and meekly accepted the kiss.
The head of the Leng family, always revered and beyond anyone’s reach, now had disheveled clothes and swollen, reddened lips.
Leng Shouqing wiped her mouth, stood up, and straightened her shirt. She quickly regained her cool, elegant composure. “Allow me to introduce my wife, Yu Zhaokui.”
