Ning Xi lost both her parents at a young age and was adopted by the Ouyang family, a close friend of her father. Gentle yet resilient, she always believed her secret crush was mutual, until she saw him with a well-matched heiress. Her dream shattered, and she finally understood that to him, she was merely a “little sister” he had carefully kept under his wing.
Just as her heart turned to ashes, Lu Chenyi, a powerful man who had fallen for her at first sight and secretly loved her for years, came to her with a marriage contract. “Marry me. I'll give you a home, and true freedom.”
At last, she came to her senses and decided to live for herself instead of being a caged bird kept as someone's pet.
After they married, she returned to her long-buried dream of becoming a designer and began to shine in her career.
He gave her all the tenderness and respect he could, becoming her strongest support as he slowly made his way into her heart.
Only after falling in love with Lu Chenyi did she understand what real love was.
But when they appeared in public hand in hand, Ouyang Yu regretted letting her go. He refused to lose Ning Xi and grew nearly frantic, trying every means to win her back.
When Ning Xi appeared before Ouyang Yu again, he thought he had finally succeeded. Instead, all he got was a slap and the words, “Don't make me hate you...”
It's great! Keep up the good work, author! Highly recommended!!!
Why did the male and female leads switch roles? Does the character for "she" (她) have the "woman" radical (女) for boys, and the character for "he" (他) has the "person" radical (单人) for girls? Is this some kind of new way of thinking...?
