After the Canary Flew Away, the Capital's Tycoon Kissed Me Deeply and Begged Me to Take Him Back

[Domineering, powerful political heavyweight vs. Kunqu opera beauty + love at first sight + coercive romance] The first time Shen Xi meets Song Zheng, she knows he has ulterior motives. In public, he is refined and aloof. In private, he tears off his disguise, bares his fangs, and presses them against her neck. “Shen Xi, break up with him. I can make you one of the most powerful people in the capital.” “If you want the wind, I can give you the rain.” Shen Xi struggles and refuses. “I have a boyfriend.” Later, she parts ways with her boyfriend and moves into Song Zheng’s home, losing herself night after night and becoming a canary in his palm. Later still, after a sudden upheaval, Shen Xi’s heart turns to ash. She uses every means at her disposal to escape her cage. Four years later, she is reborn and they meet again. Song Zheng’s eyes are bloodshot as he holds her tight, accusing her in a hoarse voice. “You’re so cruel. You’d rather die than stay with me.” Shen Xi only stares at him blankly. “How long are you planning to keep me locked up this time?” He finally gives up his stubbornness and kneels before her. “Xixi, please don’t leave again, all right?”
