[Strategic Older CEO vs. Silly, Spoiled Heiress]
Everyone in Beijing’s wealthy circles knows that Jiang Yuandai, the Jiang family’s only daughter, is the apple of the family patriarch’s eye and his sole heir.
At her twentieth birthday party, the world played a cruel joke on her. She watched her father introduce his illegitimate son to the people around him, while several friends she had grown up with chatted and laughed with the boy.
Jiang Yuandai stared at this unfamiliar scene in disbelief, feeling the strange atmosphere close in around her until she could barely breathe.
“Yuanyuan.”
Jiang Yuandai looked up at Chu Xu behind her. Ignoring the guests’ mockery, she took his hand. Her eyes were vulnerable, though she stubbornly held her ground. She looked at him as if to ask, Are you going to abandon me too?
Chu Xu gently took her hand and stood in front of her, making his position clear to everyone.
From then on, everyone knew that even without the Jiang family backing her, their young heiress was not someone they could afford to underestimate.
Everyone else was waiting to enjoy the show, expecting Miss Jiang, who had always lived above the clouds, to fall into the mud. But Chu Xu had coveted that vibrant rose for a long time, and now he had the perfect chance to take her for himself and fill her life with love once more.
He still remembered their first meeting.
At the birthday party for the Jiang family’s precious jewel, everyone had come with their own agenda to celebrate. Though she was only four, she sat there dressed like a little cake, surrounded by endless praise and admiration.
One glance was all it took for him to know that, just as he’d expected, a little cake like that would always remain high above the clouds.
So the moment the rose fell, he took her hand, and they never parted again.
