Lisa, an 18-year-old dreamer, finally arrives in Beijing, the city she has always longed to see. With passion and determination, she lands a job at Z&K, one of the most successful tech companies in China, specializing in animation, game development, and electronics. But what she doesn't expect is her cold and distant CEO—Felix.

Felix, at just 19, carries the weight of an entire family on his shoulders. He supports 30 people, including his parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, and grandparents, without receiving so much as a thank you. Hardened by years of responsibility, he trusts no one and allows no emotions to show.

But when Lisa enters his life, everything changes. Her kindness, warmth, and unshakable spirit begin to melt his icy heart. As romance blooms in the workplace, jealous rivals, betrayals, and family drama threaten to pull them apart. Hana, Lisa’s so-called friend, secretly desires Felix. Victor Wu, a powerful rival, sees Felix as an obstacle. And when Lisa’s cousin, Linda, arrives with dangerous intentions, their love is put to the ultimate test.

Can Lisa break down the walls around Felix’s heart? Will Felix fight to protect the only person who has ever truly cared for him? Or will the enemies lurking in the shadows tear them apart forever?

A story of love, power, and survival in the heart of Beijing—Love in Beijing will take you on an unforgettable journey of romance, heartbreak, and triumph.

Forzen heart, burning love

Lisa spent the entire day trying to push Leo's words out of her head.

"Felix doesn't 'date' people. Ever. So why you?"

So why did it feel like something more?

Lisa had just finished dinner when her phone rang.

She frowned. It was already 11 PM. Why was he calling so late?

Felix's voice was calm but firm. "Be ready by 6 PM tomorrow. I'll pick you up."

Lisa sighed. "Yeah, yeah. I know."

Then Felix said, "Don't overthink it, Lisa."

Felix's tone didn't change. "You've been acting weird all day."

Lisa frowned. How does he notice these things?

She hesitated, then said, "Leo told me something."

Lisa continued, "He said you don't 'date' people. Ever. So why me?"

Felix's voice was cold. "Leo talks too much."

Lisa crossed her arms. "That's not an answer."

Felix exhaled. "You were convenient."

Felix's tone remained indifferent. "You're new. You don't have company rumors following you. You're good at pretending. And—" He paused.

Felix's voice dropped slightly. "And you're not annoying."

Lisa's lips twitched. "That sounded like a compliment."

Felix scoffed. "Don't get used to it."

Lisa sighed. "Fine. See you tomorrow."

Felix didn't say goodbye. He just hung up.

Lisa stared at her phone, feeling even more confused than before.

Felix tossed his phone onto his desk, his expression unreadable.

He knew Lisa wouldn't drop the question.

But how was he supposed to tell her?

She was the only one who made him feel like a person—not just a CEO.
