Prisoner of the Deep Desert

Shen Xingchu was a top-tier internet celebrity, utterly consumed by the torrent of fame and attention. At a fan meet-and-greet in Mumbai, she nearly met with disaster. It was that woman, Lin Yuan, who snatched her from the hands of over twenty thugs and fled with her overnight to Qatar. In this unfamiliar desert city, Shen Xingchu felt safe for the first time. She thought she had encountered salvation—until she noticed the way Lin Yuan looked at her, increasingly like someone gazing at a long-lost collectible that had finally been recovered. Lin Yuan pushed open the doors of her palace deep in the desert, and what Shen Xingchu stepped into was not sanctuary, but a cage built of tenderness and gratitude.
