Guiding lover + powerful man bows to love + two elite families + sweet and bittersweet romance + both leads have only ever loved each other
At a party in London, Wen Qingning reunites with her sixteenth ex-boyfriend from her youth.
The poor boy he once was has become the most dangerous man in the financial district, feared by everyone.
Once-proud Wen Qingning is now a fallen heiress. To save her father, she has come to London to beg someone to get engaged to her.
Zhou Shiyan: “I know a good ophthalmologist in England. Would you like me to introduce you?”
Wen Qingning: “No need...”
“If not an ophthalmologist, then how about a neurologist?”
With the man needling her at every turn, Wen Qingning assumes he still holds a grudge over what happened back then.
The moment Zhou Shiyan sees Wen Qingning, his long-still heart starts beating again.
Her arrival makes bright flowers bloom in a barren land.
Knowing the gulf between them, he keeps suppressing the feelings surging inside him.
He watches her hurt, frustrated, and unhappy with his own eyes.
He throws all reason and careful calculation aside.
A princess belongs in a bright world, where she can stay radiant and happy. He shouldn't let her enter another world of darkness.
On the day she leaves, he secretly goes to see her off. Three rainstorms fall over London on the way there, as if expressing his longing, reluctance, and unwillingness to let her go.
When Wen Qingning is about to marry another man, he books a flight to the capital.
Ten thousand kilometers, and an eight-hour time difference.
Zhou Shiyan blocks her path. “Give me one more chance to pursue you.”
Wen Qingning: “I don't agree. I don't want to. No.”
Zhou Shiyan scoops her up and carries her to the car, smiling as if he's just won a battle. “That's fine. I like taking what I want by force. I like forcing love.”
