Synopsis

[A bold, passionate, devoted hero VS a gentle, sweet-talking heroine with a hard heart who reaches for her knife when things don’t go her way]

The little golden retriever in Tan Jiajing’s household was in heat. She knocked on her neighbor’s door, hoping to introduce the dog to its beloved.

But the man who stepped out, fresh from his shower and devastatingly handsome, turned out to be her first love, Sui Wuhan.

The handsome man immediately turned them down, coldly telling the little golden retriever, “Act cute all you want. It won’t work.”

Leaning against the doorway, he fixed his arrogant gaze on her, his ex-girlfriend, and smiled brazenly.

“You could try acting cute, though.”

Sui Wuhan once held an extraordinary place in Tan Jiajing’s life.

Every flutter of her heart, every burst of passion and joy, every sense of comfort and security she felt as a girl came from him.

As a teenager, she was sensitive, timid, and insecure around everyone.

A disappointment in her parents’ eyes, a timid loser in her classmates’ eyes,

but to the brazen, proud young Sui Wuhan, she was the pampered little empress Tan, spoiled rotten by his affection.

Who could have guessed that after nineteen days together, Sui Wuhan would immediately move on to someone else?

What a jerk. If you don’t love your little empress, let her go. Don’t cheat, okay?

Tan Jiajing swore she would never like Sui Wuhan again, not in this lifetime.

During his four years studying abroad, Sui Wuhan wondered countless times:

Forget it.

He didn’t have to be with Tan Jiajing, and he didn’t have to be in a relationship at all.

But he simply couldn’t do it.

Sui Wuhan had to be with Tan Jiajing.
