"At 27, I planned my crush’s wedding with my own hands"
The day Li Yanran landed the Huayao project, the class group chat was going wild with the news of He Zhizhou’s engagement.
No one knew He Zhizhou had been the love of her life throughout her youth.
In the client’s conference room, Chen Danni, who used to bully her, clicked over in high heels.
“I hear you’re here to see Mr. He? What a shame. His fiancée is coming, so I’m afraid he won’t have time for you.”
The design sketches she’d been publicly humiliated over fluttered by the window, just like her heartbreak at eighteen, when she heard He Zhizhou had given up his recommendation to Hua Qing University just to go to Hu Ning with Chen Danni.
That night, her best friend kicked open her door with a bottle of wine in hand.
“He Zhizhou specifically asked you to plan his dream wedding?”
Yanran stared at her disheveled reflection and suddenly laughed through her tears.
How ridiculous was that?
The outline of the “dream wedding” she had stayed up countless nights recreating was now sitting in her proposal.
[Later, the financial headlines exploded,]
The powerful Mr. He curled up in her entryway in the middle of the night.
“You said a planner had to be available whenever the client needed them.”
He held up a velvet box containing a wedding ring just like hers, his eyes hazy with drink.
“Now your client wants you to try on the ring yourself. Right now.”

Her gentle boss suddenly strips her of all authority.
A colleague she once helped turns around and stabs her in the back?
Even she…
But everything that doesn’t break her will only make her stronger.
Strong enough to finally stand as someone’s equal.
"What you thought was a reunion after years apart was something he’d been planning for a decade"
“Back then, you said you’d design the most special wedding…”
“Now it’s time to give me the exclusive package you promised.”
