[Childhood Sweethearts × Both First-Timers × Secret Crush]
“Of course we’re more than friends.”
Ji Yu’s pupils trembled slightly. He was a little nervous, his fingers unconsciously gripping his trousers as he waited with quiet anticipation for what she would say next.
“We’re family.”
Ji Yu lowered his eyes, which were full of disappointment. With a bitter smile, he downed a bottle of liquor and mocked himself. “Right. We’re family.”
When their parents’ affairs finally made it impossible for them to remain friends, Ji Yu realized that nothing lasts forever, not even family.
He summoned his courage and went to Su Er. “Mumu, can we really never go back to the way we were?”
During the five years they went their separate ways, he watched Su Er grow from the shadows. The delicate girl who loved to act cute became strong and independent. The girl he had once cherished in the palm of his hand no longer needed anyone to protect her.
The most promising young entrepreneur: Ji Yu.
When he reached the top, he was stunned to find that Su Er had not only an overbearing former boyfriend back from overseas at her side, but also a wild, younger puppy-like man.
How could this be allowed? His girl couldn’t be hurt by anyone again. This time, he would make the first move and win back the love that should have been his.
The shackles of their parents and every other obstacle were gone. He willingly gave himself to Su Er, offering her all his tenderness and care.
His college classmates mocked him: “You’re nothing but a backup.”
Su Er, who had long since fallen in love with Ji Yu, stroked his face. “You were never a backup. You’re the one and only person in my heart.”
