Deeply Cherished

[Bad-boy charm + irresistible flirtation + secret school crush + workplace romance] A wild, unruly, untamable male lead × a clear-headed, cool, and classically elegant female lead Ye Huailin, the second young master of the Ye family of Jingbei, is flamboyant and dazzling, free-spirited and debonair. Everyone in their circle believes that a favored son of heaven like him would never fall for any girl. He'll just pass through a thousand blossoms without a single leaf clinging to him. Jiang Zhiyun, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family of Bincheng, was born into a family of scholars. Her cool, refined bearing makes her seem like a pure flower blooming atop a snowy mountain. Unfortunately, when she was in her final year of high school, the Jiang family fell into decline. After both her parents died, she went to live with her grandmother. From that moment on, she locked her heart away and devoted herself to her studies, hoping only to get through the college entrance exams smoothly and make something of herself one day. * After graduating and starting work, Jiang Zhiyun ran into someone she'd rejected back in high school at a party. Ye Huailin leaned lazily against the booth, his gaze unreadable. “Jiang Zhiyun, it's been years, but you haven't changed at all...” Her heart trembled. She hadn't yet figured out what to say to break the awkward silence when the man continued in a low voice, “Just like before, you still can't kick your bad habit of sneaking glances at me.” Jiang Zhiyun: “...” She thought, You're the one who hasn't changed. You're still just as narcissistic. * Later, he pinned her against the wall. This elegant, chaste woman was trapped beneath him as he buried his face in the hollow of her shoulder. His voice was hoarse, trembling with emotion. “Jiang Zhiyun, look at me too. Have a little mercy on me...” Her heart fluttered. She rose onto her toes, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed the corner of his mouth. “Mm...” * He said, “Jiang Zhiyun, time may fly, but you'll always be the only one I cherish!”
