Sweet Temptation! The Beauty in President Pei's Palm is Too Alluring

In Shanghai's glittering high society, Shu Hua is renowned as the Shu family's untouchable little princess—a walking contradiction of wide-eyed innocence and devastating allure, pampered to the point of infamy and notoriously difficult to please. Her marriage to Pei Yanzhou, the merciless business titan whose cold-blooded reputation precedes him, is nothing more than a strategic alliance between powerful dynasties. On their wedding night, clad in a pristine white gown, she faces him like a startled fawn, her voice trembling with a promise: "Mr. Pei, I will be very obedient." The man, immaculate in his suit, seizes her chin with an unyielding grip, his dark gaze raking over her deceptively sweet features. "Remember your words," he replies, his tone a blade wrapped in silk. The city's elite waste no time placing their bets—convinced that this delicate bloom will wither within seventy-two hours by President Pei's side. And in the cold corridors of his company, where he serves as her direct superior, their prediction seems all but confirmed. She approaches his desk with documents in hand, only to be met with a dismissive "Get out," his attention never wavering from his work. His staff watches with smirking satisfaction, taking her humiliation as proof of his utter disinterest. But when an unsuspecting employee accidentally stumbles upon a clandestine moment between the frigid CEO and his meek intern, the entire office is forced to reconsider. Behind the icy glares and clinical rejections lies a volatile tension neither of them can fully suppress—one that threatens to unravel the carefully constructed facade of their convenient marriage and expose a craving that runs far deeper than anyone in Shanghai could have foreseen.
