I was streaming an adult movie on the living room screen when, just as things were getting intense, I heard a rustling at the front door. At first, I thought it was a neighbor. Then, a key slid perfectly into the lock, and the door opened. In the dim light, I could only make out a blurry silhouette. It was a woman. And she had an incredible figure. “Who are you? What are you doing in my apartment?!” “Who are *you*?” We both spoke at the same time. On the screen, the adult movie I hadn’t managed to pause continued to play, its embarrassing sounds echoing around us. “Pervert! Disgusting!” My night was interrupted by a stranger breaking into my apartment in the middle of the night, and then I was inexplicably yelled at. What did I do to deserve this?! I zipped up my pants, annoyed, and turned off the projector. Just as I was about to give this person a piece of my mind, she reached for the light switch on the wall. The blinding LED light made my eyes sting for a moment. Once they adjusted, my urge to unleash a torrent of curses was gradually replaced by a strange flutter in my chest. She was incredibly beautiful. A black bodycon sweater dress accentuated her figure perfectly. Her generous curves and impossibly narrow waist outshone even the ‘stars’ I’d carefully picked for my movie. Long lashes cast shadows beneath her eyes, her delicate features framed by a cascade of dark, curly hair. The sight reignited the desire I’d just put out. “Seen enough?” She crossed her arms, her long, slender, pale legs striding towards me. “Now, let’s talk about why you’re in my apartment.” “This is *my* apartment!” I went inside, found my rental agreement, and placed it on the coffee table in the living room. This was a brand-new, move-in ready place. I’d moved in right after the renovations were finished. Even though I was renting, I’d met the landlord, and he seemed pretty legitimate, not the type to scam someone. The beauty in front of me quickly scanned the contract. When she saw the landlord’s name, she let out a cold laugh. That smile was sharp enough to cut, sending chills down my spine. She pulled an iPad from her suitcase, swiped a few times, and handed it to me. On it was a purchase agreement, with the address clearly listed as my current residence. I was about to ask for clarification, but she was already on the phone. “Luo Jie, what’s going on with my apartment? “Are you insane?! How long were you planning to keep this from me if I hadn’t come back? “No way, don’t even think about it! “I’m not leaving. I’m staying here for good. “That’s *your* problem.” *Snap*—she hung up. “Her beautiful eyes scanned me up and down, but with a look usually reserved for trash.” “Here, on the purchase agreement, the owner is me, Luo Ruowei. She pointed to the elegant signature, then continued: “Luo Jie is my brother. I went abroad for graduate studies two years ago, so the apartment was vacant. I never imagined that idiot would rent it out. “So that’s the situation. I don’t like living with other people. You can go to Luo Jie for the remaining rent or any penalty fees. “Now, please, move out immediately.” A thousand swear words stampeded through my head. “Luo Ruowei, it’s midnight. You want me to move out *now*?” Seeing her reach for her phone, ready to call the police, I quickly threw my hands up in surrender, gritting my teeth. “Fine! I’ll move, okay?!” I had plenty of things. After all, I was the first one to live in this apartment, and I’d been here for two years. I truly thought of this place as my home. I was dawdling, packing my luggage in the bedroom, when Luo Ruowei’s sharp voice cut through the air from the living room. “Your ID. I need to take a picture. If there are any issues with the apartment, I’ll contact you for compensation.” Annoyed, I tossed my ID onto the sofa where she was sitting. I went back to my room and continued squatting in front of the wardrobe, packing my bags. After a while, I turned around, and my lips brushed against something incredibly soft and smooth. It was Luo Ruowei’s thigh?! 2. My gaze traveled up her pale thigh, disappearing into the shadow beneath her dress, past her slender waist, over her captivating curves, all the way to her perfectly sculpted face… “Oh, my—I’m so, so sorry! I didn’t mean to! I was just packing…” I dropped the clothes, pressing my hands together in a sincere apology. Luo Ruowei was so unforgiving, she was going to tear me apart! I waited for what felt like an eternity, but she didn’t demand an explanation. I secretly peeked at her. Her expression was a mix of surprise, excitement, and a touch of vulnerability. I couldn’t quite place it, but it was incredibly complex. “Your name is Yang Yizhou?” “Uh, yeah.” “From H City?” “That’s right. Why…?” She crouched down, leaning in close. The soft curve of her chest pressed against mine. I imagined she could feel my racing heartbeat. Backed against the closet door, I could smell her lovely scent, a perfect match for her aura. She might have been a little nearsighted, squinting as she peered at me for a long time, as if trying to memorize every line of my skin. Looking at her alluring red lips, so close to mine, I swallowed hard. “Yang Yizhou, do you have anywhere to go this late?” “No, not really. You’re the one telling me to move out.” “Don’t move.” “Huh?” “Just keep living here,” she whispered, her lips brushing my ear. “With me.” I’ll admit, my mind went straight to the gutter when she said that. I even glanced down at my pants, silently thinking: *Buddy, it’s your time to shine today. Don’t let me down!* But the next second, she shoved a pillow into my arms and pushed me out of the bedroom. “I’m exhausted. Goodnight.” The second bedroom didn’t have a bed, so I had to crash on the sofa for the night. The intoxicating scent lingered, and I suddenly remembered she’d been sitting there for quite a while. 3 When I opened my eyes the next morning, a bright, clear face instantly filled my vision. Luo Ruowei was propped on the sofa, looking down at me. My blood ran cold, then all the heat rushed to my face. “Good… good morning, Miss Luo Ruowei.” “Morning.” She acted as if nothing had happened, rising and walking back into her bedroom. From yesterday to today, her behavior had been incredibly strange. Could Luo Ruowei like me? No way. I know what kind of guy I am. She was just nearsighted, not blind. I habitually made a sandwich to take to work. After a moment’s thought, I made another and placed it on the dining table. 4 I worked at an advertising agency. It was a growing industry, and my colleagues were all pretty lively. “Dude, did you hear? Mr. Ma got demoted for poor performance! A new president is coming to our department today. I hear she’s really strict… Should we organize something to make a good first impression?” My cubicle neighbor,Zhang, spun his chair over to me. These guys, they pretended to be buddies while secretly watching each other like hawks, terrified someone else would get ahead or score points with the boss. I just brushed them off with a laugh. What do I care? I’m just someone on a fixed salary. You want me to dip into my own pocket to impress the boss? As if I’d do that! Yet, reality turned out to be so ridiculously cliché. At the morning meeting, I saw the new president. Yep, it was my gorgeous landlady, Luo Ruowei. Luo Ruowei was dressed in a sharp black suit, stiletto heels, with fiery red lips — sexy and alluring. — Her demeanor was vastly different from when she was wearing SpongeBob loungewear this morning. She clearly saw me too, but only glanced my way without lingering. Like everyone else, I focused my attention on her. On the surface, it looked like I was listening intently to her speech. But as a man, I could guess what they were all thinking: *Holy crap, what a bombshell.* Or, *She definitely slept her way to the top.* They were all so cynical and narrow-minded, unable to believe someone could be genuinely better than them, so they naturally assumed her success was due to unethical means. So boring. I wasn’t exactly high-minded myself. The only reason I believed in Luo Ruowei was because I’d seen a stack of professional certificates in her luggage yesterday. She was more than qualified for this position.
