[The regretful ex tries to win her back + melodramatic twists + possessive, scheming male lead + second male lead gets the girl]
A sharp-tongued little rose vs. a laid-back, devilishly clever older man with an even temperament
When Xu Luo was young, her gaze always followed Xie Huaiye. Wherever she went, he was there.
A week into their relationship, Xu Luo was told that she was just a disposable side character in a book. Great, she hadn't even had time to enjoy the romance before being brought back down to earth, and now she was supposed to be dismembered, too. Thanks, but no thanks. She immediately gave up on this ridiculous love affair.
She wasn't eager to die. She wanted nothing more than to stay far away from the male and female leads, terrified of putting her fragile life at risk. But after she said she wanted to break up, the hateful Xie Huaiye acted like a creep, hiding her in his arms and saying hoarsely, “Luoluo, I love you. You were always the one I loved.”
After leaving him, Xu Luo met another man. He was funny, refined, polite, and knew how to respect boundaries. Being with him never made her uncomfortable. His striking looks were only one of his many modest virtues. During their time together, she experienced a happiness she'd never known before. But when she said she wanted to leave, the man who was always so calm and unruffled went mad.
“Even if this world is fake, it's still the world I truly live in. Even if you end up liking me, I've already given up on you, because I won't wait around for you anymore.”
