[Happy ending + both leads’ first and only love + reunion after years apart + sharp-tongued but soft-hearted + intense romantic tension]
Jin Yunche and Wen Ying met in autumn, beneath a shower of maple leaves. She was always following behind him. Whenever he turned around, impatient and ready to chase off the little shadow at his heels, he would see her innocent smile. Like a flawless white rose blooming in his heart, she was so captivating and radiant that he could never bring himself to say a harsh word to her...
Later, they got together. Jin Yunche looked forward to their future every day, but one day Wen Ying cruelly left him behind. It turned out that even the most beautiful roses had thorns...
That day, Jin Yunche cast aside all his dignity and knelt on the ground, begging like a dog. “Wen Ying, please, I’m begging you. Don’t leave me, okay?”
Wen Ying shook off his hand, her gaze cold and ruthless, without a trace of pretense. “Jin Yunche, seeing you grovel like this disgusts me.”
With red-rimmed eyes, Jin Yunche asked, “Disgusts you? Then what about all those times you said you loved me? What did they mean?”
Wen Ying gave a bitter smile. “You were just someone I toyed with. Did you really think I fell for you?”
Jin Yunche still refused to give up. “But I love you...”
Wen Ying said, “Your love is worthless to me...”
Years later, after their long separation, Jin Yunche pinned Wen Ying into a corner, humiliating and punishing her with the cruelest words. But why was he still the one who loved her most...?
