[This one goes in the queue first]
After an unexpected turn of events leaves her family bankrupt and buried in debt, Ming Xi receives a lucrative offer: to serve as assistant and personal bodyguard to award-winning actress Qin Shu.
Ming Xi agrees without much thought. Qin Shu is a top-tier Omega, but Ming Xi is a Beta and unaffected by pheromones. Besides, Qin Shu has a good reputation, so she probably won't give her too much trouble. Most importantly, the pay is high enough to clear her massive debt in just three years.
Ming Xi looks Qin Shu up in advance, but the moment she meets her, Ming Xi's heart races despite all her preparation.
Perhaps because she's a top-tier Omega, Qin Shu is stunningly beautiful, the kind of person whose looks are so perfect she can get away with anything.
But after only three days together, Ming Xi is so exasperated she's numb. She never imagined that away from the cameras, Qin Shu would have such a terrible personality.
Beneath her beautiful exterior, she's cold, sharp-tongued, fussy, and extremely set in her ways. She's a huge pain and impossible to deal with.
Still, for the money, Ming Xi puts up with it. She just wants to make it through the three years and leave when the contract expires.
Then an accident happens. Ming Xi inexplicably undergoes a second differentiation into an Alpha, and, while out of her mind, does something truly awful to Qin Shu.
Once she wakes up, Ming Xi knows she's no longer fit to do the job and decides to quit. But Qin Shu not only refuses to let her go, she proposes that they continue their relationship as it is, and even raises the pay.
Thinking of her debts, Ming Xi agrees to the outrageous proposal.
Unexpectedly, the two are a good match. Still, Ming Xi feels that Omegas are at a disadvantage in these kinds of situations, and that if their relationship becomes public, it will deal Qin Shu's career a devastating blow. Uneasy about it, she lets Qin Shu's awful behavior slide again and again.
But just when she thinks their relationship will last only until the contract ends, Ming Xi discovers that the reason she differentiated a second time was that Qin Shu had taken advantage of her being a Beta, unable to sense pheromones. During all the times they were alone together, Qin Shu had been releasing her pheromones without restraint, constantly stimulating her.
Ming Xi is shocked and confused, but when she tries to back away, a pair of hands hold her fast.
Qin Shu embraces her and sighs tenderly. “Ming Xi, this is your punishment for forgetting me. You can never leave me again.”
