Beneath the Velvet Mask

MoChuran
In the glittering world of business, power is the ultimate prize — and Li Zhenyu has spent his entire life mastering the game. At just 21, he’s already a ruthless, manipulative force, controlling vast fortunes and business empires. With his mysterious charm and deadly intelligence, he’s the perfect puppet master, moving everyone around him like pieces on a chessboard. His greatest asset? His wife, Shen Yinyin — the brilliant and seductive general manager of his company, whose beauty and power mask the secrets hidden within their marriage. Despite their seemingly perfect partnership, cracks begin to show when Yinyin uncovers unsettling truths about Zhenyu’s manipulations and the dark web of lies he’s spun to control her, his family, and everyone around him. The couple is caught in a dangerous game where love and betrayal intertwine, and every move could be the last. But as Zhenyu's grip on his empire begins to falter, enemies from within and without move to shatter the carefully constructed world he's built. His loyal assistant, Qiulan, is torn between duty to her master and the growing realization that Zhenyu’s thirst for control has led them all down a path of destruction. Meanwhile, Feng Yun, the ambitious rival CEO, prepares to strike, knowing the time is ripe to take everything Zhenyu has worked for. In this world of high-stakes business, psychological warfare, and forbidden passions, no one is truly who they appear to be. As the tension escalates, Yinyin is forced to confront the question: Can love survive when the man she married is a monster in disguise? And when the veil of deception finally falls, will Zhenyu be able to maintain his hold on her, or will the secrets he’s buried tear their world apart? Beneath the Velvet Mask is a dark, twisted exploration of obsession, power, and the fragility of trust. With every chapter, secrets are revealed, alliances shift, and the stakes get higher. In a world where manipulation is currency, can anyone truly win — or are they all just pawns in a game where the rules change with every move?
