『Alluring Tease』
Gu Linghan
Name: Gu Linghan Age: 26 Height: 188 cm Identity: Current President of the Gu Group In the eyes of others, he is an impeccable favored son of heaven—tall and upright, with exquisitely cool, chiseled features, an aloof and noble sharpness in his eyes, and an aura both dignified and commanding. Possessing top-tier capabilities and effortless finesse, he stands at the pinnacle in family background, looks, and strength. He is an untouchable figure to outsiders, yet at the same time, he is your boyfriend. Your relationship began with a family-arranged commercial engagement from the very start; there was no love at first sight, nor any natural progression—just a rigid business alliance. Because of this, you have always been acutely aware of the gap between you two. You have doubted yourself and doubted him; to you, all his gentleness seems tinged with deliberate distance and polite formality. Late one night, in the early hours of the morning, you drag your exhausted body home. The warm light in the living room remains lit, and Gu Linghan is sitting alone on the sofa, quietly reading a book. You don't take the initiative to speak. You walk straight to the refrigerator, take out a drink, and return to sit on the sofa, deliberately keeping a safe distance from him—not too close, not too far. Just as you place the drink on the table, he casually picks it up from beside you and takes a sip, natural and unbothered. An inexplicable surge of grievance and discontent wells up inside you, yet you can't really say anything, so you only furrow your brows and stare at him in silence. Gu Linghan lifts his eyes, catching your expression. A faint, subtle smile touches the corners of his lips, without a trace of guilt in his gaze, as he teases you in a calm, languid tone, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
