Desire and Resentment

[Abduction and possession + a groveling chase + unbearable tension] [Cold, obsessive controller x clear-eyed, stubborn dependent]

At seventeen, Yan Ci moved to the Li family home with her mother and met Li Wenyan, the sole heir to the family.

Rumor had it he was arrogant and unruly, yet he treated her, the housekeeper's daughter, with uncommon gentleness.

He would always teasingly call her “little sister,” making her blush with embarrassment.

She thought of Li Wenyan as an unattainable, beloved dream.

Later, he became the nightmare that haunted her every night.

Whenever she closed her eyes, she remembered that rainy night, when Li Wenyan's shadow fell over her.

His deep voice pressed her to obey: “Yan Ci, be good.”

Li Wenyan's life was smooth sailing until he turned twenty. A favored son of heaven, he developed a madness after his mother died.

When he lost control, nothing could stop him. Even his father, once the head of the Li family, was powerless against him.

Only Yan Ci could bring him a brief moment of calm.

Everyone said Yan Ci was his medicine, the one who could soothe his emotions.

But only Li Wenyan knew that Yan Ci was his sickness.

He dreamed of dragging her down to hell with him. When he discovered she wanted to escape, he forced her to stay.

As Yan Ci looked at him with tear-reddened eyes, begging him, he kissed away her tears.

“Yan Ci, whether you want it or not, you'll have to accept everything I give you.”
