Cool, elegant, and artistic heroine vs. wealthy, scheming, devoted hero.
Content warning: The male lead is chaste; the female lead is not. She had a first love, the second male lead.
Lin Xiao had been with her first love, He Ping, for almost five years. After he proposed, she thought they would spend the rest of their lives together. Instead, a woman showed up at her door with three bed photos, and nearly five years of love went down the drain...
Three years later, hoping to forget her heartbreak, she went alone to a bar and took one look at a man wearing glasses before deciding she liked him...
She thought they were together just to keep each other warm and soothe their heartache. She never expected he had long since fallen deeply in love with her and had been quietly protecting her.
When he was young, he never thought he could have her. Their worlds were too far apart. By a twist of fate, they met, and he seized his chance. After many years, he finally got to be with her. He might not have been the first man to appear in her life, but he didn't care. For her, he would give up his life.
The story line is relatively long, gentle, the pace is relatively slow, the plot is comparative, and it is not a bloody plot.
