The powerful big shot has never gotten over his first love. Everyone knows it's a sore subject and best left alone. A fearless manager pushes his own young star into the big shot's arms, and thanks to looking a little like the man's first love, the star wins his affection.
The flowers filling the courtyard were planted for his first love. The lilies he kept sending were her favorite. Even the name “A Chuan” was what she liked to call him.
Gu Yanchuan, what do you have that belongs to me, Shen Ling?
The young star has grown bold. He doesn't need some powerful patron anymore. He packs up and heads back home.
The big shot thinks he has closed off his heart, but in truth, he fell deeply in love with the young star long ago.
You were never anyone's substitute. You are the treasure I hold closest to my heart.
I love your features, not because they resemble anyone else's, but because they are beautiful.
Powerful older man as the pursuer vs. sunny, cheerful young male star as the pursued
Mostly sweet, with a little angst. Later, the older man has to grovel to win his love back.
This book is so good!! The characters are so well-developed. My favorite parts are the scenes between Qi Huai and Shen Ling's little darling; they're just like how I bicker with my friends. I hope the author keeps up the good work. I'll definitely read it until the end!!! 🥰🥰🥰 It's been so long since I've read a book that suits my taste so well. Great job, author!
At first, I thought I'd only give it four stars because the plot was a bit cliché and the emotions weren't expressed well. But the more I read, the more I felt the earlier parts were just right, the understated descriptions actually made the emotions intensify (and become more heartbreaking) later on. By chapter 30-something, I knew things were going to get really bad—it was so agonizing!
I enjoyed reading it. At first, I thought it would just be a typical sweet romance, but after reading it, the plot became quite memorable. I felt a little reluctant to end it and wanted to continue reading their story. There were indeed some heart-wrenching moments, but it was the depth of their mutual love that truly moved me. Words can't express how much I loved them. Anyway, I really liked this story; it was quite profound.
It's so good, but I felt really frustrated in the middle, I felt so sorry for Ling Bao 🥺
It's great, I love watching it, hehe, I absolutely adore it!
Sweet and delightful, with a touch of angst just right.
I really like Shen Ling's personality. He speaks his mind directly, doesn't play games, and when he refuses a call, he means it.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
The article is excellent; I want to read it!
I've finished the book. The plot is simple, with a little bit of heartbreak, the characters are decent, and it's a sweet read. It's a good option when you're looking for something to read. I hope the author continues to work hard and keep up the good work!
