[Secret Crush] + [Childhood Sweethearts] Gu Ying was born in a remote mountain village. Because she was an extra child and her family wanted to have another boy while evading the family-planning policy, they sent her to live with her maternal grandmother. Xiang Nancheng’s parents were away running a business, so they sent him back to his hometown to be raised by his grandparents. The two grew up together as childhood sweethearts.
When they meet again, she is an actress, screenwriter, and author, while he has become a businessman with a trillion-yuan fortune. They parted because of a misunderstanding, but fate brings them together again.
“Gu Ying, I really did hate you back then,” Xiang Nancheng says through gritted teeth.
“Chairman Xiang, if you’d like, you can keep hating me,” Gu Ying says, shoving him away.
“Why are you treating me this way? You promised…”
“There aren’t answers to every question in life, and making a promise doesn’t mean you have to keep it.” Gu Ying’s ruthless words wound him.
You can’t force a melon to be sweet, but he’s going to force it anyway! He doesn’t care about his reputation, or anything else!
“You’re crazy!” Gu Ying curses.
“I was crazy from the start, even as a kid. I’ve only gotten crazier over the years!” He pins her against the door, his eyes blazing with anger.
A secret crush is one person’s private war. It’s spending your whole life writing a long poem without ever daring to mention the person it’s about. But a secret crush is also a sweetness kept to yourself. She loved one person for eleven years, and those eleven years of youth belonged to only him.
