Mei-Yin adjusted her blouse one final time before stepping out of her best friend Xiao Hong's apartment in bustling Beijing. The city streets buzzed with the energy of a new day, but her thoughts were entirely consumed by the rumors swirling around LI Corporation. Today marked the long-anticipated arrival of Li-Jie, the mysterious heir to the billion-dollar empire. Despite never having set foot in China, his reputation as a cold and strikingly handsome figure preceded him.

The news of his arrival had been the talk of the office for weeks. Whispers of his appearance and demeanor had captivated the female employees, each fantasizing about catching a glimpse of the elusive figure. Mei-Yin herself couldn't help but feel a mix of curiosity and excitement. The tension was palpable as she joined her colleagues, all gathered in the grand lobby of LI Corporation's headquarters.

As the sleek black limousine pulled up to the entrance, a hush fell over the crowd. The air seemed to thicken with anticipation. Mei-Yin's heart pounded in her chest, her eyes fixed on the car door. When it finally opened, and Li-Jie emerged, the collective gasp from the onlookers was almost audible. His presence was commanding, his features as striking as the rumors had suggested. Mei-Yin's breath caught in her throat, and she felt an inexplicable pull towards him.

In that moment, she knew her life was about to change in ways she could never have anticipated. What she didn't realize was how profoundly her path would intertwine with the enigmatic man who had just stepped into her world.
