[Both leads are sexually inexperienced × Older woman-younger man romance × Healing]
“Thank you for picking up the broken pieces of me.”
Inferior, sensitive, and suspicious: those are the labels Jian Ning gives herself. Her cold demeanor is the only thing protecting her.
“Jian Ning, do you really think so little of me?”
“You’ll have bad luck if you like me...”
Does love at first sight come down to feelings or looks? Jiang Shuo doesn’t care. If he likes her, he likes her. It’s the tender, timid love of youthful recklessness, for the girl one year older than him.
He tries to win her over again and again, but Jian Ning sees him as a womanizer playing the long game to reel her in. She likes wearing dresses, so he studies fashion design.
He loves roses, so he fills the backyard with them. Whatever she likes, he does.
It seems she has forgotten someone, someone very, very important.
On the day Jiang Shuo came of legal age, they went to register their marriage.
At last, the promise they made in their youth came to an end.
