[Fierce yet devoted CEO ✖ a beauty who can be sweet or cool]
The Xu family of Jing City and the Xie family of Liang City arranged a marriage between their heirs. Xie Yuxi, the eldest daughter of the Xie family, had been secretly in love with her fiancé, Xu Qinghan, for eight whole years.
When she learned that he liked sweet, cute girls, she was willing to hide her sharp edges and pretend to be a sweet little secretary so she could stay by his side, drawing closer with gentle advances.
But she never expected to discover Xu Qinghan’s playboy nature and scumbag ways. Her eight years of unrequited love shattered into pieces!
Without the slightest hesitation, Xie Yuxi cut off her feelings right then and there, broke up with him and ended their engagement, then left overseas to study that very night, leaving no room for reconciliation.
Meanwhile, Xu Qinghan, the eldest young master of the Xu family, couldn’t care less about his family’s arranged marriage. His heart and eyes were fixed entirely on the sweet, gentle little secretary by his side.
Just as their feelings reached their peak, the secretary vanished into thin air and cut off all contact. He searched all of Kyoto, but couldn’t find the slightest trace of her.
Years later, they meet again. The once-sweet little secretary has become a celebrated, top-tier jewelry designer, cool and formidable, distant and hard to approach, with an air that keeps everyone at arm’s length.
Xu Qinghan is beside himself. Where on earth did his darling girlfriend go?
