[A clearheaded, alluring beauty × an unruly playboy with a pure heart and loyal-dog devotion]
Gu Zhixing, son of the Grand Princess and the biggest wastrel in the capital, spent his days stirring up trouble and acting outrageously with a crowd of useless friends. He was the sort of person everyone hated.
One day, he had a rare moment of kindness and rescued a scrawny little girl. He never expected that the girl would have designs on him.
“Your Highness, the Heir, is so clever.”
“Your Highness, the Heir, is so handsome.”
“Your Highness, the Heir, is the best person in the world.”
“I like Your Highness, the Heir, most of all.”
Shen Jintang pursued him relentlessly, showering him with sweet words and vows of eternal love. In the end, he began falling for her beyond his control. But just then, Shen Jintang told him it had all been a game to deceive his heart, body, and feelings. She walked away without a backward glance, and even had the nerve to say, “I used you, but you didn't lose anything, did you? A little heartbreak in exchange for a lifetime of peace and security. I wish I could get such a good deal.”
Even a purehearted, loyal dog, once abandoned, can turn into a ravenous wolf that devours its prey down to the bones. He only wanted to catch his prey and lock her away. “You were the one who came after me. So this game doesn't end until I say it does.”
“Master, the first lesson you taught me was to keep my promises! You said all those sweet words and swore all those oaths. You shouldn't break your word. If you can't keep your promises, then I'll have to help you.”
