A flirt who charms every man she meets vs. a jealous man who wants to chop down every rival
Secretly in love with her | Long-planned pursuit | The later arrival wins
1.
As soon as intern reporter Yu Fei got her permanent position, she brought her brazen lust and mischievous intentions with her and volunteered to transfer to the sports department.
On interview day, Yu Fei glanced at her colleague's camera.
The photo had captured Lou Yiling in midair, spiking the ball. His body was taut like a full, supple bow, and the strip of exposed waist was narrow and toned. The veins stood out on his lower abdomen, tracing the curve of his V-line toward his hipbones.
She clicked her tongue. "That waist looks like a good time. He must know what he's doing. It'll be the death of me."
Her colleague stared. "He's the national team's ace attacker! If you interview him..."
"Tch," Yu Fei said dismissively. "He looks so cold, like just looking at him would put me eight million in debt."
After the match, Yu Fei squeezed into the crowd of reporters and steeled herself to follow the script. "Captain Lou, you scored three crucial points in a row to save the day. How would you rate your performance?"
The people around them burst out laughing. Everyone knew this young master's temper was terrible. For a question this basic, he would usually throw a fit and tell them to get lost.
Unexpectedly, Lou Yiling lifted his eyes for the first time, answering into the microphone with a faintly amused smile. "Pretty good. I won eight million with my face."
Yu Fei: "...?"

At the first National Games Yu Fei covered, her boyfriend Cheng Ji went up against Lou Yiling.
After the preliminary round, she crept through the dark to find Cheng Ji in the lounge. The man had just put his arms around her and lowered his head to kiss her when...
"Click." The overhead light flickered, then suddenly blazed to life.
Yu Fei narrowed her eyes. Lou Yiling was leaning leisurely against the doorframe, damp strands of hair falling over his forehead. His dark eyes slanted toward them as he lazily lowered his hand.
Cheng Ji straightened abruptly, embarrassed. "...Captain Lou."
"The team doctor asked me to tell you not to do anything strenuous." Lou Yiling opened a locker and took out his bag, acting as though no one else were there. Before leaving, he leaned close to Yu Fei's ear and lowered his voice, his meaning clear:
"He strained his back. Are you sure he can satisfy you?"
Cheng Ji: "?"
Yu Fei: "..."

After the final, Lou Yiling stood amid deafening cheers and glanced coolly at the press seats, raising an eyebrow.
Yu Fei was crouching as she made her way around the spectators. She was clearly heading for the front row of the losing team's interview area.
At the stairs, someone suddenly grabbed her and pulled her into the fire escape.
Lou Yiling's scorching breath enveloped her. He held her by the nape and pinned her against the wall. Her gasps and whimpers were swallowed up by him all at once.
"You like him that much," Lou Yiling murmured, grazing her earlobe with his teeth, "that even after he loses, you still have to interview him?"
"It's part of my job." Yu Fei could barely catch her breath from his kisses. She angrily pushed at him. "Don't..."
"Don't stop?" he chuckled indistinctly. He scooped her up with one arm and had her straddle his waist, coaxing her wickedly. "Then see for yourself. Which feels better, my waist or his?"
