[Radiant, alluring actress vs. cool, celibate male lawyer]
[Old flames reunited + faux in-law taboo romance + a long road to winning her back / push and pull to the limit]
Shen Huaishi has had a crush for years on Song Hemian, the cold, aloof campus heartthrob.
At last, after one night together, she believes she’ll win his heart.
Then she accidentally hears Song Hemian tell his friends, “A lowborn clingy girl like her is just someone I’m messing around with.”
Heartbroken, Shen Huaishi leaves. Years later, in an empty alley in the rain, Song Hemian corners her against a wall and kisses her fiercely.
Shen Huaishi curses him for being crazy. “Song Hemian, did you know I have a six-year-old child with your brother?”
But the man’s eyes are red with tears as he pleads, “Then let him be your husband, and let me be your second husband. Please?”
Ten years ago, he was the one who asked Shen Huaishi to be his secret lover. Ten years later, he is still the one begging her to let him be her secret lover.
