Qiao Rui, a graduate of A University's top criminal psychology program, is hired by the police to create a psychological profile for a heart-removal case.
Working overtime until she looks completely exhausted, she turns down all private clients. But on a muggy afternoon, one stubborn client still shows up at her door. At the first sight of him, Qiao Rui's frown melts away.
No man this handsome has ever appeared anywhere on the East Coast. Brown hair, green eyes, a linen shirt unbuttoned to his chest, and a glimpse of sculpted abs and a V-line: he looks like he came specifically to seduce her.
Her dull, dreary home suddenly shines, as if a Hollywood star has just arrived.
Most importantly, he knows exactly how to charm a woman. Every time he comes for a session, he remembers to bring roses and dessert.
Qiao Rui makes an exception and takes him on, convincing herself she's just squeezing in a little emotional therapy.
Through one long heart-to-heart after another, she soothes this prickly lion. After every session, he becomes more docile, more... tenderly devoted.
