[Beautiful, innocent-seeming heroine with a sultry side × ruthless, amnesiac powerhouse; mutual unrequited love + sweetness and angst + both leads are each other’s first + secret identity + age gap + growing-up romance]
Everyone knew Ye An was hopelessly in love with Gu Jingche. She groveled at his feet for three years, making herself the capital’s number-one doormat.
What no one knew was that during all three years with Gu Jingche, whenever Ye An stared at his face, she was thinking of someone else. The night Gu Jingche’s beloved returned from abroad, he forced Ye An to her knees in front of everyone. Ye An suddenly realized that he would never be that person.
She turned and walked away, forcefully breaking off their engagement.
“She’s just playing hard to get. Give it two days, and she’ll come crawling back to make up,” Gu Jingche sneered.
Two days passed. Ye An didn’t contact him, and Gu Jingche grew restless.
Two weeks passed. Ye An blocked him, and Gu Jingche flew into a rage.
Two months passed. Ye An announced her marriage.
Gu Jingche panicked. Red-eyed, he pinned Ye An against a wall and begged, “An’an, I was wrong...” Before he could finish, the man behind him kicked him flying. When Gu Jingche looked up, he saw Ye An in the arms of his own uncle, a ruthless, decisive man who showed no mercy. “Gu Jingche! Call her Aunt-in-law!”
