Gentle Boiling Point

Gentle Boiling Point

Xie Zhiwei, the only daughter of the Xie family, is cherished by everyone, except that things rarely go smoothly when it comes to love.

The refined campus heartthrob Qin Mo comes from a poor family. In the years when he was strapped for cash, he started dating Xie Zhiwei. To keep her boyfriend from feeling inferior, Xie Zhiwei carefully hid her wealthy heiress identity and spent half a year living a shabby life with him, eating simple meals and getting by with him in hardship.

But Qin Mo, after receiving an offer from an international prestigious university, was the first to turn his sword on Xie Zhiwei, the girl he once loved.

Li Xingtan, the precious legitimate grandson of the Li family, had been childhood friends with Xie Zhiwei for ten years. It was only after Qin Mo went abroad that he finally won her over and got together with the girl he had coveted for years.

Before the happiness of having his girlfriend in his arms could even warm up, another scandal about a disgraceful thing he had done years ago was exposed, and it happened to hit Xie Zhiwei's bottom line.

One after another, they were just too much!

Enraged, Xie Zhiwei turned around and got engaged to Han Xingzhou, the eldest legitimate grandson of the Han family.

Han Xingzhou is a capital tycoon in the investment and financing world. Despite his young age, his methods are ruthless, and in just ten years he has accumulated immense wealth. His marriage has always drawn close attention; almost every wealthy family in the imperial capital has tried to test the waters with the Han family, but he has never given them a response.

Since even the imperial capital's young ladies, after years of effort, could not take him down, by rights a family like the Xie clan, a newcomer from elsewhere, should have had absolutely no chance of climbing into that position.

Who could have imagined that, in a dazed and muddled way, he would end up in Xie Zhiwei's hands.

Once the marriage was settled, news that the ex-boyfriend Li Xingtan had tried to propose and ended up hospitalized after self-harm went trending.

And, just as the glamorous returnee Qin Mo met his old love again, his eyes turned red, and he too wanted to step back into this romantic game.

Yet no one knew that Han Xingzhou, who appeared detached and restrained in public, had secretly studied every trick for dealing with rivals:

If it came to fighting and grabbing, he could do that too.
