CEO Jiang Heng was famous for being cold and distant, especially toward women. Everyone knew he had a cherished first love, and no one could truly get into his heart.
Gu Qiao won him over with a face that bore a faint resemblance to his first love, along with a carefully cultivated, sweet and innocent personality. At last, she had the man all to herself.
But his first love wasn’t dead. Sure enough, she came back, and Gu Qiao didn’t want to overstay her welcome and become a nuisance, so she took the initiative and asked to break up.
Jiang Heng graciously let her go. First he said, “If that’s what you want,” then he changed his mind.
After the breakup, the truth gradually came to light. This whole story about her being a stand-in for his first love was made up. He was the one who had been standing in for someone else all along: CEO Jiang himself!
“Were you playing me?”
“CEO Jiang, now that we’ve broken up, you should take it like a man.”
…
The once lofty CEO suddenly seemed to shrink. “Just come back. Name your price.”
