[Reunion After Years Apart + Rekindled Romance + Playboy Turns Over a New Leaf + Mutual Healing + Both Pure]
[Freelance Photographer vs. Kunqu Opera Performer]
Back in college, Jiang Jinyang was Peking University's notorious heartless playboy. He never made the first move, never turned anyone down, and never tried to hold anyone back. With his good looks, he went through girlfriends like water.
That year, a new student named Tanyu joined the Kunqu Opera program. She looked pure and gentle, but she broke his usual pattern when it came to dating.
Tanyu was the girl Jiang Jinyang dated the longest and spoiled the most. Sadly, they still ended up breaking up.
Everyone thought Jiang Jinyang would never change, but they didn't know that on the day they split, he stared at her and asked hoarsely, “Tanyu, think carefully. Once we break up, there won't be another chance to come back.”
Tanyu lowered her eyes and replied, “All right.”

Four years after they parted, they met again at a magazine office.
In front of others, Tanyu was polite yet distant. “Hello, I'm Tanyu.”
Jiang Jinyang looked at her and let out a derisive laugh, its meaning impossible to read.
When they were alone, Tanyu greeted him softly. “Long time no see.”
Jiang Jinyang lowered his head and took a drag of his cigarette, his voice husky and mocking. “So we knew each other before?”

Tanyu thought Jiang Jinyang hated her, until one day he pinned her beneath him and claimed her fiercely and domineeringly: “You can only be mine.”
