President Yu Has Been Scheming to Woo His Wife for Ages

[Young powerful heir × Chinese teacher | Both inexperienced in love | Reunited after years apart | Mutual unrequited love | Male lead lacks a sense of security]

Childhood classmates, they fell for each other.

Xu Zaixing was clear-headed and rational, hiding her feelings so carefully that no one could see through her act.

Her deliberate distance made Yu Songchen believe she had never liked him at all.

He sank into a long, one-sided love, desperately trying to move on, but to no avail.

He traveled to Zhaoming Temple on Beishan in Kyoto year after year to pray, asking the heavens to grant him a reunion. If he were lucky enough to see her again, he swore he would never let her go.

So close, she felt conflicted and looked up at him reproachfully.

Yu Songchen bent toward her. When she turned her head to avoid him, he lifted a hand and gripped her chin, forcing her to meet his eyes.

No one knew that the lofty heir to Kyoto's Yu family was deeply sensitive and starved for love inside, consumed by the fear that she would abandon him.

And Xu Zaixing, who had buried her feelings for years, would finally reach out and soothe all his fears,
