【A rich-family heir pretending to be a kept pretty boy × a softhearted little heiress with an overactive imagination】
【Marriage first, love later + Slow-burn romance】
On her birthday, Ye Qingning sees her fiancé, who is supposed to be away on a business trip, browsing baby supplies with the woman he has always loved.
Everyone around him knows his first love is back, but they all choose to keep it from her. Ye Qingning decides to call off the engagement.
That very day, a good friend finds her a pretty boy who charges twenty thousand a month.
Ye Qingning: “Jiang Siye, don’t you dare regret marrying me!”
Jiang Siye gazes at her with beautiful eyes, his smile deepening, playful yet sincere. “If you don’t regret it, neither will I.”
Ye Qingning always thought they had fallen in love over time. It wasn’t until years later that the usually tight-lipped man let the truth slip: “Ye Qingning, did you know I’d had my eye on you for years?”
…
Jiang Siye is the youngest son of the Jiang family of Kyoto, a prodigy born to shine, proud and coddled by everyone. He never expected Ye Qingning to greet him coldly the first time they met.
Jiang Siye had planned to teach his ungrateful deskmate a lesson, but then he saw her eyes, clear and bright as the moon, cool yet pure. For the first time, he blushed, and from then on, she had him wrapped around her finger.
Just as he was about to make peace with her, Ye Qingning turned and left the country without a second thought. They never spoke again, and that day the usually proud young master’s eyes turned red.
Six years later, he lowers his head before her and says earnestly, “I’ll protect you. From now on, you’re mine!”
