Overnight, disaster strikes the Shen family in the capital. The family's little princess loses both her parents and becomes a helpless orphan, as well as a prize in everyone's eyes: the heiress to the Shen couple's estate.
“You can come live with me.” Wen Yanlan can no longer hide his feelings. His beloved needs him now.
From then on, everyone in the capital's elite circles knows that the cold, aloof heir to the Wen family has a new sweetheart.
A little scene: During a meeting, the CFO is giving a report when a ringtone suddenly interrupts him. Everyone falls silent, privately feeling sorry for whoever's phone it is.
Then the man at the head of the table pulls out his phone, and the coldness in his eyes melts away. His voice turns tender as water. “All right, I understand. I'll come get you later.”
After hanging up, his voice still carries a trace of tenderness. “Sorry, the kid at home is being a little fussy. Let's wrap up the meeting in fifteen minutes.”
He has to hurry and pick the little one up after school.
Both devoted only to each other, childhood sweethearts, a slow pursuit. The heroine is at school in the early part of the story, mainly to move the plot along, so things progress a little slowly at first. Later, it's all sweetness.
