[Both are each other’s one and only + Mutual salvation + Angst before sweetness + Powerful CEO + The one who got away]
Xingyun Club, a high school reunion.
Bai Shuangshuang asked Huo Tingxuan, “Can you save my fiancé? He was framed. If you help me, I’ll repay you, I promise!”
Huo Tingxuan: “And how do you plan to repay me?”
Bai Shuangshuang: “You’re not going to ask me to marry you, are you?”
(Inwardly, she muttered that she really wanted to throw money at him. But Huo Tingxuan was a big shot in Yuncheng, and his family had enough money to bury her. How could she possibly outbid him?)
Huo Tingxuan: “Relax. I’m a gentleman. I won’t take advantage of you. Sign here, and you can repay me later!”
“But, Miss Bai, you should know that debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay!”
Bai Shuangshuang took the pen he offered and signed her name with righteous resolve:
“I know. I promise I’ll repay you…”
And so, as time went on, she ended up owing him favor after favor.
