Spring Awaits at Winter's End

Bittersweet yearning + secret love comes true + angsty romance + healing and redemption + coming of age

From campus to the city, angst and sweetness, with a happy ending

Her mother, terminally ill with cancer, planned a car accident in her despair, gambling her life for her daughter's future.

Fourteen-year-old Su Nuo'er watched helplessly as her mother died before her eyes. Ling Shengyao, the young master of the Ling family, hated her to the core. Gripping her by the throat, he screamed, “Daughter of a murderer! I will never forgive you!”

A conspiracy on a rainy night turned her into the “murderer's daughter” who had supposedly killed his father.

He treated her like a maid, making her climb balconies, stay up all night gaming, and take the blame for him.

Yet she accepted it all without complaint, quietly cooking noodles and cleaning his room.

Until he realized he couldn't help softening at her tears, and her smile made his heart race out of control...

Worse still, he realized he didn't want her to leave.

When she finally found the courage to walk away, he went completely mad.

Five years later, they meet again. His eyes red, he asks her humbly, “What about you? Did you ever like me back then?”
