[Brooding Teen Lu Qi × Warm and Radiant Shen Qingtang] [Mutual First Love] [Top Students] [From Campus to City Life]
In her second year of high school, Shen Qingtang transfers to Yucheng for personal reasons. In this warm little city, she meets a boy shrouded in gloom.
Everyone thinks he’s aloof and hard to get along with, but Shen Qingtang disagrees. The cool, distant boy patiently explains problems to her and looks after her in every way.
She thinks theirs is just a chance encounter at an auspicious time, never realizing that ten years earlier, she had already taken root in a little boy’s heart.
Their feelings slowly blossom in the breeze of the little city. She glimpses the darkness behind the boy and feels her heart ache for him.
The day before the college entrance exams, Shen Qingtang celebrates his eighteenth birthday early.
“Lu Qi, what’s your wish?”
“My first wish is that you’ll always be safe, and that your life will be long and happy.”
“What’s your second wish?”
“Isn’t the second wish supposed to be a secret?”
“Hmph, fine, don’t tell me.” Shen Qingtang turns her head away haughtily.
Lu Qi watches her from behind, his throat working and his eyes stinging. His hands slowly clench as he restrains the urge to reach out and hug her.
When they meet again seven years later, the boy has become the executive director of the Lu Group, a wealthy and powerful family enterprise in the capital. He is also her business partner.
He desperately suppresses his love for her, afraid the storms surrounding him will drag her down.
But when he sees her being wronged, the powerful executive drops the act and corners her in the parking lot, pulling her fiercely into his arms.
“Congratulations, President Lu. Both your wishes came true.”
“I have you to thank for that, President Shen.”
For seven years, they have grown through their own struggles, separated by mountains and seas, until at last they meet again at the top.
