    Summary

    Our tale begins with Xie Lian hiring an escort to help him deal with an “unspeakable affliction” after a disastrous breakup forced him to leave college and return to his hometown.

    Hua Cheng (or Wuming, as he is called when we first meet him) isn’t really interested in helping people—he just wants to get paid. If the situation with a client seems too complicated to deal with, he has no problem walking away. But for some reason he can’t explain, he feels compelled to help Xie Lian.

    The two find themselves very quickly drawn to one another, but nothing in life is easy, especially when it comes to love.

    Xie Lian is struggling to forget about the demise of the relationship that ruined his life—a struggle complicated by the fact that his ex may or may not be stalking him.

    Meanwhile, Hua Cheng is busy running from a past that will soon catch up to him with deadly consequences.

    Summary

    Xie Lian, an agent for the Xianle Security Agency, has been sent undercover to investigate the Jun Crime Family. Things are going well (sort of) until he runs into Hua Cheng, whom he formerly arrested back in his rookie days.

    Xie Lian wants nothing more than to keep his head down and do his job, but Hua Cheng seems determined to draw him out with his wicked words and sexy smirk.

    As Jun Wu's top enforcer, Hua Cheng seems to be the epitome of "mad, bad, and dangerous to know," but when the two of them are forced to work together, Xie Lian starts to realize there is much more to the Crimson Rain Sought Flower than his reputation alone.

    Before long, Xie Lian begins to fall for the one person he shouldn't and soon finds himself caught between his duty and his feelings.

    But Xie Lian is not the only one with secrets.

    Hua Cheng is on a mission of his own, and if he's not careful, he may end up destroying himself and taking Xie Lian along with him.

    Summary

    “You’re ridiculous.”
    “You’ve dated worse.”
    “San Lang! That’s rude!”
    “That’s true,” Hua Cheng parries mercilessly. “I haven’t even finished the retrospective of all the trash you’ve collected—would you like me to go on?”

    aka Xie Lian hasn't had any luck in his relationships, but he has a goal in mind, and won't be deterred. That is, until Hua Cheng snaps.
