[Campus Romance + Reunion + Coercive Possession + Mostly Angsty with a Little Sweetness + A Husband’s Long Road to Winning Her Back + Both Pure]
Chen Zefe has a privileged family background and the means to do whatever he pleases, while Jiang Ni is a student from a poor family who has to rely on herself at every turn.
But that summer, they meet on campus, and Chen Zefe finds love for the first time. He gets his first taste of romance. He loves Jiang Ni’s body, her looks, her temperament, everything about her. Though he has to rein in his pride and coldness, he gives her all his tenderness and loves her to the very core. The one thing that drives him to distraction is her stubbornness.
As they whisper close together, Chen Zefe lays a hand on Jiang Ni’s slender neck, thinking, “After graduation, we’ll get married.”
But just as graduation approaches, an unexpected turn of events strikes. Chen Zefe mistakenly believes Jiang Ni has abandoned him. In his anguish, love turns to hate, but he still cannot forget her.
After a string of misunderstandings, he sees again the woman who has haunted his dreams. Chen Zefe is still the golden boy, while Jiang Ni now stands before him with her head bowed, asking for his help. Determined to make her suffer in revenge, he pretends to be heartless and says, “Well, Miss Jiang, looking at you now, I wonder if you’re even cut out to be a mistress.” From then on, Jiang Ni becomes his private canary, kept and fed by Chen Zefe. By the time the misunderstanding is cleared up, they have already lost a child.
After ten years of entanglement, my life has long been inseparable from yours, just as you have been ground into my body and my very bones. The same is true for Jiang Ni.
