Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

The first time Chi Enen sees him again, it’s in the gleam of a revolving glass door and the reflection steals her breath before his hand does.

Li Beijue—young, untouchable CEO at the top of a glittering business empire—moves through boardrooms and banquets like ice in a crystal glass: clear, hard, perfectly controlled. Women look at him and see a fantasy in a tailored suit. They don’t see the way his jaw locks when someone mentions the past, or the way his fingers curl, white‑knuckled, around a glass whenever a certain name drifts by.

Only Chi Enen remembers the man behind the perfect mask: the one who loved like a storm, all sharp commands and jealous hands, the one whose tenderness always came edged with ownership. Five years ago, she slipped out of his world without leaving even a forwarding address, carrying a secret that burned badly enough to justify the scar.

Now the accident of a chance encounter becomes a cage. Li Beijue pulls her back into his orbit with contracts, bodyguards, and a gaze that never quite leaves her face. If she’s gone too long, his messages stack up; if she smiles at someone else, the air around them turns brittle. He has made up his mind—no more indulgence, no more letting her go. This time, he’ll keep her by force if he must, and make her fall in love with him all over again on his terms.

Caught between the truth that drove her away and the man who refuses to loosen his grip, Chi Enen walks a narrow line where every small surrender feels dangerously close to the one mistake she might not be able to undo.
