[An honest, clingy, hopelessly lovestruck young master from Beijing’s elite circles x a small-town overachiever who loves fiercely and lives on her own terms]
Everyone in Jingbei knew the old Party secretary’s grandson was a force to be reckoned with. After leaving medicine for business, he quickly made a name for himself. Young and successful, he soon became one of the most sought-after men in Beijing’s elite circles.
Zhao Chengji had been away from Jingbei for three years. When he returned, he found a female student by his younger brother’s side. The two were conspicuously close, spending far too much time together.
The student had endured a difficult upbringing. Beneath her sweet face was a stubborn, unyielding spirit.
That day, snow fell heavily over Jingbei. His face slowly appeared behind the car window.
Watching her walk alone through the dark, Zhao Chengji spoke softly:
“My brother isn’t into your type. Why don’t you give me a chance instead?”
Gu Jingque had followed the rules for twenty years. The most rebellious thing she ever did was fall passionately in love with a young master from Beijing’s elite circles.
Back then, everyone in their circle knew that the eldest son of the Zhao family was head over heels for his girlfriend.
She could be yelled at right to her face without getting angry. When he was pursuing her, he waited for more than five hours in the snow and wind, and personally found her opportunities. She turned them down anyway.
But later, none of them could have imagined what would happen.
Caught in a power struggle, Zhao Chengji was ready to give everything up for her, only to receive notice that she had been transferred to North America.
For the first time, he lost his composure in front of her and demanded, “Gu Jingque, did you never once think about our future?”
Her amber eyes were as clear as ever. “That’s right. I never did.”
After her plane left that day, a blizzard blanketed Jingbei for a week.
Five years later, she arrived with the snow and wind once more, pinning Zhao Chengji against the car window.
Her red lips curved with confidence. “Director Zhao, I really like your type. Why don’t you give me a chance?”
