Unbound Rose

When Chi Yinsi was eighteen, she was sent to live with Xie Yingzhou.

The man didn't talk much. He was always calm and restrained, as steady as a mountain.

After spending so much time together, Chi Yinsi couldn't help developing feelings for him.

Until one night, she worked up the courage to confess to Xie Yingzhou, then got drunk and failed to come home. He hauled her back by the scruff of her neck right off the street.

Mist clouded the frosted glass of the bathroom. Chi Yinsi leaned against the bathtub as the impeccably dressed man clasped her slender waist with one hand and gently bit her lip.

"I gave you your chance, Ashi."

"Don't overestimate how much self-control I have."

Only then did she realize what a dangerous man she'd provoked.

Chi Yinsi fears nothing under heaven, except Xie Yingzhou reaching up to undo his tie.
