She doesn't understand love, but someone insists on teaching her.
In Wen Zhizhi's 28 years of life, love is the one subject she has never been able to understand.
Her father betrayed the family, her mother died young, and her younger brother had a child out of wedlock but ran from his responsibility. After nearly being sexually assaulted in middle school, she shut down her emotions completely.
Her mind can analyze market data with pinpoint accuracy, yet she can't tell when a man is in love with her.
She is oblivious to Zhou Xubai's passionate pursuit and Gu Linyuan's gentle protection.
Then a misunderstanding makes her disappear for five years.
When they meet again, Zhou Xubai has gone from intern to rising business tycoon. He pins her against a bookshelf and murmurs in a husky voice:
“Have you learned what love is now?”
It turns out there really is someone in this world willing to exhaust every ounce of patience, waiting for her slow heart to understand love.
