The One and Only Lord Under Heaven

[Ten years of unrequited love × one-on-one romance × a little angst before the sweetness × the regretful chase] The saying "It's easy for a woman to win a man's heart" doesn't seem to apply to Chen Tianxin. Not only has she been rejected every time she confessed, he couldn't even bring himself to sleep in the same bed with her. To forget him, she went away to college, then found a job in a city without him. Yet on a business trip, she somehow ran into him again after all these years. And then someone made a move? In the end, she still can't resist him. But she won't hand him her heart so easily again. He was afraid to accept her because he was uncertain about the future. Once he made up his mind, he was the kind of person who never changed it. That was exactly why he was afraid to make a promise. His abysmal emotional intelligence when they were young broke her heart. He thought someone would love him forever. But then he found out she was going on blind dates! What should he do? Help! Anyone there? If his emotional intelligence wasn't enough, he'd make up for it with brains. He bribed her junior assistant for information, then tried to win her back with the "future mother-in-law strategy." Instead, her future mother-in-law couldn't stand him and made no secret of it. No matter. He tried being direct, seduction, one flower a day, and devoted service around the clock... After finally winning her back and getting as far as proposing, she gave him a tough challenge... Do you know how hard it is to plan a surprise proposal without "Sherlock Xin" finding out?
