[Clearheaded, perceptive young woman VS gentle, refined older man]
[Both are each other’s one and only + age gap + sweet romance + exclusive devotion]
Lu Lu first meets that older man on a trip after graduating from high school. She’s not particularly attracted to looks, but even she’s dazzled by his face. Later, when she learns he’s a friend of her brother’s, her admiration vanishes. What kind of decent person would hang out with her brother?
Zhong Yanqing has lived a life of routine from childhood onward, caring about nothing in particular. He is utterly rational, gentle yet distant with others, and wears a mask. But a young woman sees through his perfectly calibrated disguise, the kind that leaves no room for criticism!
When Zhong Yanqing learns that she wants to be with him, even his handsome, usually expressionless face cracks a little!
His reason tells him that the young woman’s feelings are fickle and shouldn’t be taken seriously, but his heart is filled with an indescribable joy!
If you ask Zhong Yanqing what he regrets most, it’s that he didn’t appear sooner and meet the young woman, sparing her the pain she could have avoided!
“Mr. Zhong, do you love me?”
“I do! I love you so much!”
