*A cool, aloof pianist girl x an arrogant, devoted CEO (a former competitive swimmer)
*Campus and city life
*One-on-one romance, some angst, read with caution, reunited after a long separation
Summer in Xincheng is scorching and stifling. Thankfully, at some moment, someone will dispel the restlessness in your heart and bring you a one-of-a-kind feeling.
One is bright and determined, admired by everyone; the other is lonely and aloof, always alone. Though they had nothing to do with each other, whether by design or coincidence, their paths crossed at the wrong time and place, leading to an unpredictable story.
In the end, he fell for her, and she eventually found herself moved by him.
She rejected him again and again, backed away, and kept her distance, but none of it worked. Her heart seemed to have veered off its destined course, with no way back.
When they met again, she wore a dazzling gown, her makeup immaculate, and played the piano with warmth and feeling. The only thing that hadn’t changed was the way he watched her from below the stage, his gaze full of love. She thought they had met by chance, never knowing he had arranged it all. He had never let go; he had simply protected their fragile happiness in his own way.
At that moment, she wanted to keep playing, and even wanted to… stay.
“Now, I should finally be good enough for you, shouldn’t I?”
If you’re destined to be alone, then do your best to move a little closer to warmth. Not much, just a little.
tip: If he has appeared in your world, then his presence must mean something.
