Money-Grubbing Lover

Release schedule: Whenever I have time to write and upload :) She was an impoverished tomboy who always ended up in the midst of a fight. Living her life on the edge, she never flinched nor knew what the words giving up meant. Although life was hard, her pure and bright personality never suffered. However, her only weak point was quickly grasped by the notorious and feared CEO Xie Jingyu, who not only owned a business empire but according to rumors also had a lot of secret businesses in his hands. After saving the tycoon's life, she only had one request - money! Unfortunately, Xie Jingyu was not willing to let go of her just yet, and he pursued her with a relentlessness that made her breathless, a shamelessness that made her blush. Unable to get away from the overwhelming CEO, her only option was to counterattack, playing a game of cat and mouse, never giving in, never surrendering, but never wholly rejecting either. Could this money-grubbing woman turn into a lover, or would she manage to escape the net cast out by the king of underhanded deals? All rights to the novel and the cover belong to me.

Cinematic Trailer

Xie Jingyu noticed Yu Huiyin's silly expression, but the tenderness in his eyes just turned even warmer, and Yu Huiyin subconsciously felt her cheeks beginning to heat up.

Regaining her senses, she felt bashful and could no longer look directly into his eyes. How was it possible to have eyes like those? She felt as if she was the most treasured person in the entire world.

She was unsure about how to feel. A nagging feeling began appearing within her heart, was Xie Jingyu perhaps feeling different from what she thought? Could he possibly have feelings for her?

Then she thought about how he had been treating her so far, and she calmed down. If Xie Jingyu had indeed fallen for her, he would not be so passive, so she felt embarrassed for even thinking such a wishful thing.

Xie Jingyu could not understand her thoughts, but he saw her blushing and once again refusing to meet his eyes. His heart suddenly began beating rapidly.

Had she, perhaps, remembered the kiss from the night before? Or had she started to fall for him? He hoped it was the latter. Although he did not regret kissing her the night before, he was not sure how to explain his sudden attack, and he did not want to seem frivolous. Although, he might actually be.

Yu Huiyin had not remembered the kiss; she was just drowning in the affection within Xie Jingyu's eyes.

Xie Jingyu walked past Yu Huiyin, watching her casually through the corner of his eyes. Still, she was keeping her crimson head down, not daring even to throw a glance his way. Instead, she was seemingly entirely focused on the message she had received.

Xie Jingyu did not need to check to know that it was Xu Nanfeng she was talking with. She had never hidden who she spoke with, or her connection to Xu Nanfeng, in front of Xie Jingyu.

Yu Huiyin was not at all ashamed either. Xu Nanfeng was nothing more than just a partner and friend to her. She had never felt any romantic emotions towards him, and thus she felt no need to hide what they were working on.

Xie Jingyu did not ask into her conversation. He knew that she would tell him the important parts because she would end up being too overly excited, and she had no one else to talk with about it.

The rest of the day was spent relaxing as Yu Huiyin was busy conversing with Xu Nanfeng. As Xie Jingyu had expected, that night, during dinner, Yu Huiyin excitedly ran to Xie Jingyu's side, reminding him of a small puppy; the only thing she was lacking was a tail wagging behind her.

"Xie Jingyu, this is amazing!" she exclaimed as she rushed towards him. "Yes?" Xie Jingyu asked, smiling gently as he looked at her.

"I spoke with Nanfeng all day, and it was exciting! He is almost done with the game, and we are going to start marketing soon. I don't really understand it, but he said he had some ideas, and he has made a cinematic trailer, it looks amazing!"

Yu Huiyin hurried to Xie Jingyu's side, almost plastering herself by his side, and showed him the cinematic trailer of the game.

The trailer was truly well made, even Xie Jingyu, who usually hired professionals to do such jobs for his various daughter companies, had to admit that the quality was very high.

But while he was observing the trailer, he was also attracted to the woman by his side. Her natural scent wafted into his nostrils, her body rubbed against his arm, but she did not even realize that they were so close to each other.

As the trailer ended, Yu Huiyin looked at Xie Jingyu with a blinding smile on her face. Her eyes were looking at him as if she was begging for compliments, and once again, he imagined her wagging a tail in excitement.

The smile on his lips twitched slightly. Why was he continuously imagining her like a little puppy? This was getting weird.

But he raised out his hand and patted her on top of her head, "It is an excellent cinematic trailer," he praised. "As long as the game lives up to this trailer, it will do very well, and as long as you have time to do the marketing right, then everything will turn out good."

Yu Huiyin turned solemn and nodded her head. She understood that it was only the start and that the marketing was the most critical aspect.

"Hubby," she called out coquettishly. She had no qualms about acting like this as she still believed that he had no actual feelings for her.

"What's wrong, wifey?" He answered in the same way, naturally wrapping his arm around her waist, making her lean against him.

"You are quite popular, aren't you?" she asked with a cheeky smile on her face, looking slightly fawning at him.

"I am somewhat known. Why?" Xie Jingyu asked as he raised an eyebrow, and Yu Huiyin grinned. "Why don't you share our page on your social media accounts after Weibo has verified it?"

Xie Jingyu grinned. His wife was undoubtedly good at using all the things she had at her disposal, including her husband.

"Your comrade has been working fast to make the cinematic trailer in merely a night," Xie Jingyu answered, and Yu Huiyin nodded her head as she felt comfortable leaning against him.

"He is very skilled at everything with computers," Yu Huiyin said, feeling proud of her friend. "He just lacked the finances, so I was sure that he was the perfect person to work with."

"Do you plan on venturing into other businesses than the gaming and the entertainment industry?" Xie Jingyu asked, and Yu Huiyin just shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know," she answered earnestly.

"It depends on what I experience and what opportunities I will get."
