Having a strong sense of justice is really very vexing.... more>>

Always lending money to others, and never having anything left for savings.

Helping her neighbors, she was left saddled with a debt of 10 million TWD!

The only way is to sell the B & B, which she’d put her heart and soul into.

But the buyer showed disdain for her beloved B & B.

She had no choice but to sneak into his company, to find some leverage.

Then she would use that as a bargaining chip, forcing him to buy the B & B —

Before coming into contact with him, she thought he was an unscrupulous businessman who was a mental nutcase.

Growing closer, she discovered that he is actually very kind, and also very concerned about her……

She thought, he must never find out she is there to spy.

Sneaking into enemy territory and failing to steal anything confidential.

But ended up losing something more valuable instead…… <<less

Embarrassing!  She wanted to curse.  He’s a stalker!... more>>

Now, what is he up to?!

Remembering the “wolf” on the train, Xiang Ti was so ashamed.  She just wanted to dig a hole and hide!

Admittedly, this man was the most outstanding and attractive she’d ever encountered.

But her plan in life did not include marriage.  She wants to focus on a career and live life like the modern woman.

Her whole image exuded the “don’t offend me” message, however —

This man did not heed the warning and pursued her persistently!

Although there were not many suitors before her “stalker”, but she was still dissatisfied with this “wolf”.

Even if he used his eyes to worship her, and generously praised her beauty, she is not happy!

Because she didn’t want to fall in love with any man.

But when he smiles, why can’t she stop thinking about him?!

Why is this happening, when she is never one to be seduced by the “male beauty” before?!

But he’s proven to be a sly fox.  How is she supposed to resist?! <<less

They say Gentleman Xiao Yao (carefree) Liu Feng is a famed righteous pugilist. He himself thought that even if he isn’t considered noble and benevolent, he is at least of honourable character.... more>>

But only when he met her, did he realise that he is very well capable of being such a lecherous man. At every little moment he is constantly wanting to take advantage of her, always trying to touch her soft slender hands. It’s hopeless, who told this lady to just be so interesting, causing his heart to helplessly be moved by her—-

Her appearance looks like that of a refined lady from a well off background, but in reality she is nothing like that inside. Not only highly skilled in martial arts, her sharp tongue is also highly skilled, capable of angering people to a whole new boiling point.

Her ways of doing things is also extremely bold, completely treating the principle of impropriety between men and women like an old fart. He had only jokingly invited her to sleep with him, yet she actually pats the bed beckoning him to attend to her (?) Even going to the point of shooing him out the room after eating him dry, finding him to be too obstructive on the eye, what a way to shoot down his self-esteem.

Ai~ to fall for such a unique girl, causing him to be filled with joy one moment, and filled with sorrow the next. Overjoyed when he has her by his side, sorrowful when she acts so elusive. If that was not enough, she didn’t even leave a single note behind and disappeared without a trace, causing him to become like an abandoned husband searching for his wife.

Little do they know that this is an important test to see if these two people can be together….. <<less
