Caged Bird: Entangled with a Powerful Official, I Can't Escape

[Love by Force + Both Pure + One-on-One Romance + Tormented Love]

Pei Xuan, the current Grand Secretary, is handsome and refined, keeps himself pure, and has no interest in women. The noble daughters of prestigious families are all enamored with him.

A year ago, a distant cousin came to him for help. Pei Xuan kindly took her in and earned himself a fine reputation.

But only He Jiaojiao knows how terrifying the obsessive face hidden beneath that benevolent exterior can be.

The man lowered his eyes, his gaze dark and sharp as he hid his sick fixation.

"So Jiaojiao still has the strength to run away? It seems I was careless."

"..."

"From now on, whoever Jiaojiao wants to marry, I'll kill him!"

"Jiaojiao, you were mine from the start, and you can only ever be mine!"

I'm hopeless at writing introductions, so please head straight to the story, dear readers!

Please!
