Protocol: Body Heat

Six years ago, Shen Weiyao walked away from Fu Sennian. She never expected to face him across a negotiating table.

Her company is one bad quarter from collapse, and her boss is desperate enough to offer her up as part of the deal. Fu Sennian accepts without blinking, and promises to put her to good use.

She assumes he means overtime. He means a marriage contract.

His family wants him settled. She needs her paycheck. It should be a clean transaction between two people who already know how this ends.

But both households object, and Fu Sennian has never cared what anyone thinks of him. He keeps finding new ways to prove he isn't bluffing.

Six years, one contract, and a man who never actually let go.
