Xiao Che never imagined that even after all these years, the moment Jiu Yiyi appeared, she would turn his life upside down. She tore down every defense he’d built around himself. He couldn’t control where his eyes went, and his heart raced toward her.
Eight years ago, a sudden accident bound Xiao Che and Jiu Yi together. She was a professional, cold, and formidable bodyguard. Her only shortcoming was that stunning face, so icy it could leave the whole world in awe. When did he fall in love with her? Perhaps it was when she kept stepping in to save him from the brink of death, or when Xiao Che tended to her wounds again and again.
They met, fell in love, and relied on each other through years that took them down different paths. But love could not withstand the cruelty of reality. Just when he needed her most, she walked away, holding her head high as she told him, “That’s right, I don’t love you. I love money!”
For eight years, he tried to forget her, but couldn’t stop himself from searching for her again.
For eight years, she had secretly stood before him. Beneath the dazzling starlight, he nearly cost her her life.
When they finally reunited, Xiao Che said, “Even through those eight hopeless years, I never stopped loving you.”
