Sweet everyday romance, seven-year age gap, both leads are each other's first, mutual secret crush
A teary-eyed, sweet little artist X a domineering CEO with a devoted, old-fashioned approach to relationships
At eighteen, Xia Lian was left an orphan after a man-made disaster. Before her grandfather died, he entrusted her to Ji Hechuan, the head of the Ji family.
To spare her unnecessary pain, Ji Hechuan sent Xia Lian abroad.
Five years later, she returned home and was drugged after someone set her up at a party.
For the first time, a crack appeared in Ji Hechuan's usually icy expression.
Later,
he told her that
while she was away,
he had loved her for a long time.
Later still,
“Brother Ji, I... I got two lines.” Xia Lian looked at Ji Hechuan from behind her tears.

“Baby, I'm sorry. I'm not angry with you. Pregnancy takes such a toll on your body. I'm angry at myself for not taking better care of you.” Ji Hechuan pressed his forehead to hers and spoke in a low voice.

It wasn't until she accidentally left a photo from her eighteenth birthday in Ji Hechuan's wallet that she realized...
Maybe when he said he'd loved her for a long time, he really meant it.
It's pretty good. The male and female leads confessed their feelings so quickly, without dragging things out, and they got together fast too. So far, it doesn't seem too angsty, but I don't know if it will get angsty later on.
