Guarding His Heart

"One rainy night ten years ago, Ryan, the arrogant young master of the Sterling Consortium, rescued Leo, an orphan living on the streets, and made him his personal bodyguard. A decade later, faced with a forced business marriage arranged by his family, Ryan resolved to hide his feelings no longer — his heart belonged only to the cold-faced bodyguard who had always stood guard by his side in silence. To make this “blockhead” wake up to his feelings, Ryan launched a series of bold teases and trials: brushing fingertips against him in the corridor, pressing him for answers and meting out punishments in the study, and openly defending him at cocktail parties. Leo had always observed the master-servant boundary, burying his deep love deep within his heart. But under Ryan’s repeated bold advances and the marriage candidate’s relentless pressure, his reason finally crumbled. He struck back, consumed by overwhelming possessiveness. Faced with his tyrannical father’s furious wrath and the consortium’s all-out online blockade, the two chose to stand side by side and fight. In the end, Ryan willingly gave up his inheritance worth hundreds of billions, while Leo fought to the death to protect the love of his life. Breaking free from countless chains, in the manor garden where they first met, they underwent a romantic transformation, from “young master and bodyguard” to “lifelong partners.”"
