Still Playing Hard to Get After Marriage

[Shoujo manga artist × corporate CEO] One blind date was all it took for Xue Ling to marry the man she’d secretly loved since her student days. Xu Jingzhuo was the heir to one of Yuncheng’s most powerful families, a strikingly handsome bad boy with tiger teeth and earrings. When he smiled, there was a hint of careless mischief about him. He was a star both on and off campus. Xue Ling spent her days holed up in the library, so she rarely got the chance to run into him. But she used him as the model for her comics and secretly drew more than one volume. Bad boys, sweet talk that never stops, dirty talk… Every stroke captured the overwhelming dominance and control the young man seemed to exude. From head to toe, Xu Jingzhuo was exactly her type. She really wanted those tiger teeth to sink into her〃 v 〃 They met again three years after graduation. Xu Jingzhuo had shed all his youthful swagger. Mature and courteous, he now had the polished bearing of a corporate CEO. Married life was harmonious, you might even say they treated each other with perfect courtesy. Xu Jingzhuo respected her immensely, especially in bed. He was so gentle and restrained that even when passion got the better of him, his tiger teeth barely grazed the skin at the side of her neck. Xue Ling wasn’t entirely satisfied. There was a gap between what she’d imagined and what she got. Her husband was wonderful, of course, but… The Xu Jingzhuo who’d driven her wild back then shouldn’t have been so proper. How had he gone from bad to good? QAQ! * * * Life was so bland it might as well have been plain broth. Xue Ling couldn’t take it anymore. Gritting her teeth, she decided to do something about it. Before they got intimate, her husband went to take a shower. Fighting her embarrassment, she followed him in. “Can we shower together? It’ll be quicker.” Actually, it was because they’d never tried it in the bathroom… On a day off, she took her camera and knocked on her husband’s study door. “Honey, could you help me take some reference photos of couples’ poses?” Actually, she wanted him to grab her by the waist, pin her against the wall, and lift her by the hips… Xu Jingzhuo was very obliging. She got bolder and bolder, until one day, after a few drinks, she clung to him, tipsy. “So… could you say some of those really dirty things?” “It’d be even better if you could bite me hard…” “I really want to know what it feels like to break the bed. Waaah…” At last, Xu Jingzhuo looked at her differently. * * * Xu Jingzhuo had married the woman he’d secretly loved since his student days. He remembered her as serious and fond of quiet, the kind of girl who hated immature, rude boys. He held back his intense desire for her, even counting the seconds when he kissed her so he wouldn’t be too rough and scare her. The wife sleeping beside him had once been beyond his reach. Then he realized something was off. Very off 🙂 — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Still Playing Hard to Get After Marriage — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
