Bittersweet romance + the second male lead wins the girl + the heroine never looks back after he pursues her + mutual flirting that blossoms into love over time + older woman/younger man romance + equally strong leads
[Cool-headed, decisive, bold career woman heroine and devoted, gentle, scheming younger male lead]
Cui Nanzhi and Zhou Yixuan had been childhood sweethearts for twenty-six years, but in the end, they grew sick of the sight of each other.
She went from being the apple of Zhou Yixuan's eye to someone he couldn't stand.
Zhou Yixuan promised to marry her, but said that after the wedding, they could each do as they pleased and stay out of one another's business.
Because he had fallen in love with someone else.
Cui Nanzhi thought he was ridiculous.
So they could each do as they pleased? Fine, so could she. She turned around and started keeping a gorgeous young man.
Cui Nanzhi went to great lengths to break off her engagement to the scumbag, but everyone was waiting to laugh at the heiress of a prestigious family who had been cast aside.
Instead, she turned around and married her former fiance's maternal uncle, a mysterious man no one in the Huo family had ever seen.
Huo Xizhou gazed at the hard-won marriage certificate, his eyes brimming with tears. "Sis, I'm finally yours."
After being hurt in love, the heroine keeps the hero at arm's length, afraid of repeating past mistakes. He pursues her relentlessly and never gives up. There will be bitterness and sweetness...
Unrequited love may hurt, but if you love someone sincerely, the clouds will eventually part and the moon will shine through.
