GB + both are each other's first and only + happy ending + strong female lead + no role reversal + sweet romance

Bai Qingye, the richest woman in S City, accidentally rescues Mu Qing from her debt-collecting subordinates. At the time, Mu Qing is slender and frail. The instant he looks up, his clear gaze meets Bai Qingye's, striking straight into her heart. His familiar, handsome face makes her heart jolt.

When he was eighteen, Mu Qing drank alcohol for the first time. What should have been a little rite of passage into adulthood became the beginning of a nightmare. In a dim room, an unfamiliar woman closed in on him step by step, and fear swallowed him whole. It became a scar in his heart that never healed. When he sees Bai Qingye again, he recognizes her at once. Shame and anger surge within him, yet inexplicable ripples stir in his heart. He is shocked to realize that, on that confused night, he had already fallen in love with her without even knowing it. Love and hate pull him in opposite directions, leaving him tormented and conflicted.

Yet when Bai Qingye approaches him out of concern, Mu Qing's heart suddenly skips a beat. The questions he had prepared, the surging hatred, all become unimportant in that moment. All he knows is that he wants to stay quietly by her side.

But fate has other plans. A misunderstanding arises, and the two are forced apart. As the years drag on, his longing grows wild, while anger and sorrow hold him captive.

Years later, after crossing mountains and rivers at last to reunite with her, their eyes meet, and the tumult of the past comes rushing back. Even though he resents her, when he sees her again, he is still willing to place the whip of revenge into her palm with trembling hands, sink to his knees, and burst into tears. In that moment, his eyes hold nothing but tenderness and submission.

She will always be his master, his salvation in the darkness, and the beloved of his desolate soul. No matter how much pain he endures, one glance from her is enough to shatter every defense he has, leaving him utterly undone.
