A regretful pursuit of a lost lover [1v1, both leads are virgins] Content warning: one melodramatic disaster after another
A cool exterior, warm heart, gentle yet forceful lead X a cold, obsessive scumbag who doesn’t understand love!
A misunderstanding five years ago led Ye Zhen to agree to date Lin Jingxun as revenge. Lin Jingxun’s one condition was that Ye Zhen couldn’t see anyone else during their relationship. Whenever someone got close to Ye Zhen over those five years, Lin Jingxun would sabotage it. Ye Zhen, meanwhile, thoroughly enjoyed it and only went further down the road to self-destruction...
In short, Lin Jingxun suffers terribly in the early chapters (I won’t spoil anything, but it’s rough). Later, Ye Zhen gets put through the wringer! I won’t go easy on him!!
--
In the end, just as Ye Zhen wished, Lin Jingxun gives up and leaves him.
After the breakup, Ye Zhen foolishly throws money around in an attempt to win Lin Jingxun back, only to discover that Lin Jingxun is even richer than he is! He pursues his lost love with all his heart, then realizes Lin Jingxun is a magnet for admirers! Every rival is more devoted than he is, and he seems to have the worst odds of them all.
Later on, every day feels like playing whack-a-mole. There are just too many love rivals!!
There’s far more than one misunderstanding, and Lin Jingxun’s past is shrouded in mystery. There’s also a stand-in trope (who’s standing in for whom? You’ll have to read and find out!!)
