[1v1, Both Leads Are Inexperienced + Unrequited Love Becomes Mutual + Happy Ending + Five-Year Age Gap]
Her mother's death made the lively and cheerful Xu Yizhi much more serious. She began to take another look at her life, broke up with her scumbag ex, went abroad to study, and left the place where she had been hurt...
After an accident in M Country, she returned home five years later with her studies complete, only to find herself trying to avoid Shang Yunche at every turn. She never expected that the man who had always seemed so aloof could also have such a domineering side...
Shang Yunche was the man everyone in the capital's elite circles called “Master Shang,” yet he fell for a young woman.
When she was a little girl, she searched herself from head to toe and took out the silver lock that looked like her most valuable possession. She told him solemnly, “I can never repay you for saving my life, so I'll have to give myself to you. Big brother, when I grow up, I'll marry you.”
He waited and waited. The little girl did grow up, but unfortunately, she had poor eyesight and mistook him for someone else.
He thought he could leave it at that, as long as she was happy. But later, she broke up with her boyfriend, and he learned why. He wanted to tell her everything, but she was going abroad, and he couldn't stop her from becoming the best version of herself...
In the fifth year after she left, he went to see her in secret. That day, she was celebrating her PhD graduation with her classmates...
Perfect. Now she's mine, and she can't get rid of me.
Xu Yizhi stared in a daze at the silver lock Shang Yunche had taken out...
She hated being five years old, with such a good memory that she still remembered it all so clearly.
Shang Yunche: I hope she's happy every day and never cries, because every time she sheds a tear, my heart aches...
Xu Yizhi: My ideal life is being a couch potato with my best friend. But sure, we can slack off, just don't be genuinely useless.
