In the bustling city of Yucheng, a new luminary has emerged, Dingyu Zhou, wielding significant power and influence. From an outsider's perspective, he appears as a carefree playboy, savoring temporary pleasures without any emotional entanglements. Even Li Xu, aware of the nature of their connection, concisely acknowledges it as a straightforward transaction.

Her smile, though icy and enchanting, rejects his proposal, "Mr. Zhou, as you so eloquently stated, it's all in jest. Please don't interpret it otherwise," she responds, her words cool and deliberate.
