Official pairing: [Liu Zhining VS He Chiyan] [Prickly Little Rose, Clumsy VS All Bark and No Bite, Wolfdog] (Both are inexperienced, sweet romance)
Jiangyue City’s two most powerful men are both hopelessly in love with Liu Zhining.
He Chiyan, heir to a family rich for seven generations and one of the most powerful families in the country, is famously aloof and ascetic, with no interest in women. He has secretly loved Liu Zhining for over a decade, waiting until the day the clouds finally parted.
Lin Yuxiao built his fortune from nothing. A notorious playboy, he dated Liu Zhining for five years and cherished her tenderly. For reasons he could never reveal, he didn’t dare lay a finger on her.
Liu Zhining is an orphan, brilliant and breathtakingly beautiful. Lin Yuxiao was a ray of light in her lonely, dark life. They had known each other for eight years and dated for five. He had gently sheltered her, keeping her pure and untainted. Then one day, she discovered that her beloved boyfriend had cheated on her with the person she hated most. The blow was so devastating that she nearly took her own life.
Later, in a fit of anger, she went to He Chiyan, another powerful man in Jiangyue City, and asked him to marry her. She didn’t think he would agree, since they had never even met before. But He Chiyan actually said yes...
Liu Zhining nervously clenched her hands. “I... I want to marry you.”
He Chiyan’s expression was icy. “What makes you think I’d want a woman someone else has already marked?”
She turned to leave, hurt and humiliated, but suddenly he caught her by the wrist...
He Chiyan: “I’ll keep the marriage certificate.”
