The Hard-to-Tame Jingzhi

[An obsessive power player from Beijing × a feisty little wildcat, an eight-year age gap, the powerful one bows his head] Rumor has it that the Pei family’s head is cool and noble, the object of every powerful family’s attempts to curry favor. Just as Shen Ci’s career in China was getting started, she ran into setback after setback. So she came up with a crooked idea: seduce the saintly man and bring him down from his pedestal. She never expected Pei Yan to be an obsessive madman. She had only wanted to get some money to fund her career, but nearly got herself entangled with him instead. She made a snap decision to walk away in time, but in the end, it was too late. Shen Ci was cornered against the wall. “Pei Yan, we’ve already broken up.” He closed in on her step by step. “Broken up?” “Did I agree to that?” She froze. Her raised hand fell, and she clenched the edge of her sleeve. Pei Yan lowered his gaze, hiding the darkness in his eyes. He bowed his head first, reaching out to gently hook his little finger around hers. “Choose me.” “I’m richer than he is.” “The entire Pei family can be your betrothal gift.”
