Neon Nights in the Capital

[Marriage first, love later + age-gap romance with a fatherly hero + powerful family + strong alliance]

Gu Xi, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, was kidnapped and abandoned in the mountains at the age of five during a family power struggle, left to fend for herself.

No one could have imagined that the five-year-old had a good memory and would make it out alive.

At fifteen, she was found by the Gu family and set herself a ten-year deadline.

At twenty, she joined the family company and began plotting her revenge, one step at a time.

She treated their three-year marriage contract as a weapon in her fight for power.

Later, she seized power, settled accounts with her enemies, and divorced him without hesitation.

Her ex-husband regretted it, but he had forgotten that although they had once been legally married, he had never taught her what love was.

Gu Xi was just as confused. Their contract was over and they had gone their separate ways. They should have had nothing more to do with each other, so what was he trying to do now?

She had once thought she would live her whole life without love or affection, with only money and power for company.

Then he appeared and slowly taught her what love was.

He loved her and cherished her, giving her all the affection she could ever want.

One day after their wedding, a torrential storm battered the capital. Several car accidents occurred in the suburbs, and when Lu Xichen received word that Gu Xi was trapped, his eyes reddened. Ignoring everyone's attempts to stop him, he drove there alone.

When they met in the rain, Gu Xi ran into his arms and whispered in his ear, “Darling, I think I've fallen in love with you.”
