After Walking into My Boyfriend's Brother's Room by Mistake

Possessive pursuit + stealing someone else's partner

The night her boyfriend went to see his first love, Mu Nian sent him a breakup message. Drunk, she walked into the wrong room and ended up in Jin Yuntan's bed.

Early the next morning, she received a message from her boyfriend.

[Jin Yuntan sprained his back yesterday. I spent the night with him at the hospital.]

Mu Nian turned to look at Jin Yuntan, lying beside her. "You hurt your back?"

Jin Yuntan, usually known as a mild-mannered gentleman, had a cigarette between his lips. He glanced at her and chuckled softly, his voice seductive. "Don't you know whether my back is hurt?"

Mu Nian had followed the rules for more than twenty years, thinking her life would simply continue on until the end, with nothing unexpected in store.

Then she met a man with a saint's face, and for the first time, she wanted to get back at her boyfriend.

After that night, she blocked all his contact information and stayed away from places he might go.

He was a born winner, adored by everyone. The gulf between them was so wide that she thought their paths would never cross again.

But after a birthday party she couldn't avoid, he pinned her against the car seat and covered her mouth. Pointing at her boyfriend, who was pounding on the car window, he spoke gently, his voice hiding utter cruelty and menace.

"Add me back, or roll down the window. Pick one."

"But I'm your friend's girlfriend..."

"Why do you think he gets to be my friend?"

When Mu Nian heard her boyfriend mocking her as dull and rigid in front of his friends, she was hiding in Jin Yuntan's bathroom.

Through a crack in the door, she met Jin Yuntan's teasing gaze and heard his half-amused, half-skeptical voice. "Oh? Dull? Rigid?"

The scratches on his back were from her, only ten minutes ago. Blood was seeping through beneath his bathrobe.

[The Breakup Payment Was Way Too Much] Seeking follows

Everyone at the company knew Jiang Li had seduced Lu Jinyu into giving her a job as his assistant, a position she'd held for three years.

Over those three years, Jiang Li had sent away countless suitors and potential marriage matches. With her ruthless methods and seductive charms, she clung to Lu Jinyu's side, keeping every other woman at a distance.

No one expected Lu Jinyu's first love to return to the country in grand fashion.

The usually refined and dignified CEO Lu canceled all his work to pick her up himself, then invited her to stay at his villa.

Everyone waited gleefully to see what Jiang Li would do to tear his first love apart, but all they got was Jiang Li's resignation letter,

and the sight of her leaving with a huge breakup-payment check in hand.

Jiang Li knew from the moment she got together with Lu Jinyu that his heart belonged only to his first love.

She wasn't even the caged songbird he kept. At most, she was a wild sparrow whose owner sometimes remembered to toss it a handful of millet.

She gave up her fantasies, did as she was told, and dealt with one woman after another at his direction.

He kept his reputation as a noble, refined man, while she earned a reputation for being seductive and cruel.

All because the breakup payment he'd promised was just too much.

How could she turn that down?

After taking the money and spending a wild stretch of time enjoying herself, she returned to her old rental apartment and found Lu Jinyu waiting there, unshaven and disheveled, a rare sight for a man who was always immaculate.

He'd been waiting there for five nights.

His ragged appearance couldn't conceal his cold arrogance. He let the rain soak his expensive shirt and clamped a hand around her wrist, his voice burning with a frenzy she'd never heard before.

"Jiang Li, gotten too big for your boots and decided to disappear?"

Jiang Li was confused. "But I already took your breakup money..."

Lu Jinyu: "That damn money was a bride price!"

The night Lu Jinyu planned to end things with Jiang Li, he saw her sitting by the window all night, clutching a tissue soaked through with tears. She'd cried herself dry.

Lu Jinyu hesitated. She loved him so much. If he left her, what if she did something drastic?

By the time Jiang Li yawned for the 101st time, she'd cried herself dry.

She was afraid she'd fall asleep just as Lu Jinyu came to offer her the breakup payment, so she'd waited up all night.

Where was he?
