Staying Alive by Clinging to the Cold O CEO

Synopsis:

Meng Li has transmigrated into a book.

When she wakes up, she finds she has become a “scum Alpha”—a sycophant hated by everyone, who used endless schemes to pester the campus belle heroine, Ming Shu.

Having already been terminally ill in her past life and now able to see her own life-expectancy countdown, Meng Li decides: “Whatever, I’m just going to lie down and let it be.”

However, there is always a way out.

Meng Li discovers that her life is bound to the heroine’s older Omega sister, Ming Yufu. As long as they have physical contact (sticking together), she can gain health points.

Ming Yufu.

Possessing divine beauty, she is the head of the wealthy Ming family, with a cold and ascetic temperament. Serving as a foil to the main characters who find happy love in the original book, she is indifferent to desire and has difficulty walking, spending her days in a wheelchair. Untouched by worldly romance, she remained single until the very end.

For the sake of her life points, Meng Li plans to find an opportunity to get close to her, but Ming Yufu approaches her first with a proposal for a contract marriage.

Two million, each getting what they need. After two years, they go their separate ways.

Meng Li: In two years, she can practically drain President Ming dry. 🙂

First month of the contract marriage: The two share a bed. Meng Li is a restless sleeper and uses Ming Yufu as a body pillow. Ming Yufu’s face flushes red, but she endures it.

Second month of the contract marriage: The two go out. In front of friends, Meng Li introduces her: “This is my wife.” Ming Yufu responds nonchalantly, accepting the title.

Third month of the contract marriage: Ming Yufu enters her heat cycle. Her consciousness is blurred, and her cold, alluring pheromones fill the room. Meng Li kisses the corner of her eye and gives her a temporary mark.

As Meng Li gains more and more health points through their physical closeness, she fails to notice that the way Ming Yufu looks at her has begun to change.

President Ming thinks: She really loves me to death.

Ming Yufu is taciturn and unattainable; no one dares to approach her—until she met Meng Li.

Ming Yufu is convinced that her contract wife has fallen in love with her.

Meng Li teaches her kissing techniques, serves her food and soup, and invites her to the school’s anniversary celebration. Every sign points to the fact that Meng Li likes her.

But before she can decide how to reject these “mistaken” feelings, Ming Yufu finds a love letter at home addressed to her half-sister, Ming Shu.

Signed by: Meng Li.

Ming Yufu: “…?”

At first, Ming Yufu decided she would reject Meng Li’s confession.

Later, in front of the full-length mirror in the bathroom, she kisses the corner of Meng Li’s lips with water-like tenderness and makes a wish—for a lifetime, for eternity, let this light illuminate her forever.

• The love letter was written by the original scum Alpha; the leads are pure in body and mind.

• An innocent college student Alpha living on “skinship” vs. a self-persuading/overthinking iceberg CEO Omega.

• ABO setting // Main Attacker (Gong) // Sweet Story // 1v1 // The receiver (Shou) will recover the use of her legs.

One-sentence introduction: The iceberg CEO is busy convincing herself (that I love her).

Theme: Persistence is the most valuable trait in life. No matter how bumpy the road ahead, where there is a will, there is a way.
