[Both inexperienced + slow burn + love grows over time + sweet romance]
Everyone in Beicheng's elite circles knows Tang Li is head over heels for Gu Yuan'an.
In their three years of marriage, Gu Yuan'an has treated her like an enemy, humiliating and ignoring her time and again.
When Tang Li learns that Gu Yuan'an's first love is coming back, she turns and walks away without hesitation. She focuses on her career, and on men, too.
But Gu Yuan'an regrets it. He seizes the chance to pin her in a corner and tell her the “truth,” only to get kicked away.
Fu Mingyu hurries over as soon as he hears the news.
Tang Li smiles faintly. “I heard you're his sworn enemy. Are you with me to get back at him?”
A flicker of panic crosses Fu Mingyu's eyes. He hastily explains, “No, he made that up!”
Tang Li: “How can you prove it?”
Fu Mingyu hesitates for two seconds. “Kneel… on durian rinds?”
Tang Li: “If you like kneeling, then kneel all you want!”
