[Both leads have only ever been with each other]+ [Age gap]+ [A touch of angst]
Liang Ziyi spent all twenty-two years of her life in Hong Kong, her father’s little princess for more than two decades. The first time she set foot in Haicheng, she met the man who made her heart flutter.
Lu Zhoucheng was a remarkably accomplished young man. At just twenty-six, he had become the head of his family’s business. Unmarried and unattached, he was every heiress in Haicheng’s dream man, and they all longed to win his favor.
Rumors spread through their circle that Lu Zhoucheng was dating someone. Before anyone had even seen the fabled beauty, they heard President Lu say that they had broken up.
At the international jewelry design competition, Liang Ziyi won first place in a custom haute couture gown.
The next day, every major newspaper ran the headline: As chief judge of the design competition, Lu Zhoucheng made the eldest daughter of the Liang family cry, only for her to abandon him on the roadside.
But no one knew the truth: Lu Zhoucheng had forced a kiss on the young lady in his car, and she had slapped him and kicked him out.
Then, the arrogant, cold-hearted, dignified man knelt on the ground, holding out a huge diamond ring. “Yiyi, will you marry me?”
Liang Ziyi glanced at the ring without sparing him so much as a look and said carelessly, “The diamond isn’t big enough, and you haven’t shown enough sincerity.”
Only later did everyone learn that Lu Zhoucheng and Liang Ziyi had once shared a passionate romance.
