[Older Man + Fatherly Devotion + Sweet Romance + Personal Growth]
A slow-paced, nurturing romance with a gentle plot.
The story of a clueless beauty who charms people without realizing it and loves getting into trouble, living with a CEO who has a rich inner life and talks himself into falling for her.
[Story Introduction]
Xu Yang was adopted, with no parents of her own. She spent more than a decade living a hard life in the countryside, until, at twenty, she was finally taken to the big city.
She entered a wealthy family and began living the life she'd always dreamed of.
Then that wealthy family went bankrupt...
With nowhere else to turn and trapped in dire straits, Xu Yang had no choice but to seek out the only person who could help her, someone she still had a slight connection to: Shi Shiyan.
Shi Shiyan had always been a meticulous workaholic. Then one day, someone with a baffling way of thinking barged into his life.
She was always careless, disrupting the routine he'd followed for over twenty years. She also had a knack for causing trouble and made a mess of things for him.
After the Xu family went bankrupt, the little troublemaker actually dared to come to him for help.
For the first time, Shi Shiyan helped someone pay off their debts and kindly took in the homeless Xu Yang, making his already busy life even busier.
Xu Yang was a handful, with an extraordinary talent for getting into trouble.
Shi Shiyan always seemed impatient and, when pushed too far, threatened to kick her out. But not once did he ever actually make her leave.
That is, until one day, news broke that Shi Shiyan was getting married...
