Bright and beautiful heiress x jealous, arrogant young master and crown prince
1v1 / Both Pure / Powerful Male Lead's Long-Laid Plans / Delicious Romantic Tension / Second Male Lead Makes a Little Effort to Win Her Back
In Chen Xuanyu's eyes, Jian Fan is the most perfect top-tier specimen in the capital, and also the worst kind of bastard. He's someone she can't afford to offend and can only avoid.
Everyone is at the party that night.
In the rooftop garden, Jian Fan pins Xuanyu by the waist and kisses her until she can barely breathe.
Biting her earlobe, Jian Fan asks, seething with jealousy, "How did you pursue Xu Mo back then? Tell me every single detail."
Chen Xuanyu has no choice but to gloss over it. "I just called him a lot."

When Chen Xuanyu was a teenager, she pursued Xu Mo passionately and straightforwardly. Ten years of pursuit earned her nothing but his refusal to take the initiative or turn her down.
She watched the women come and go at Xu Mo's side, burying her girlish feelings in rainy London.
At twenty-five, Chen Xuanyu returns to the country and rejects the marriage arranged between their families. In front of everyone, she turns down Xu Mo's proposal.
Unexpectedly, Xu Mo starts pursuing her relentlessly. "If I did something wrong, I can try to win you over again."
Everyone thinks Chen Xuanyu is just playing hard to get, using retreat as a way to advance.
At last, Jian Fan gets his chance to become her boyfriend under contract. The dignified heir to the Jian family is often consumed by jealousy in their relationship that's all title and no substance.
Even a simple greeting between her and Xu Mo is enough to stir Jian Fan's most extreme possessiveness.
One morning, he finally reaches his limit and answers a call from his good friend, his tone languid. "Xuanyu's still asleep. Whatever you need to say, tell me."
