[Reunion + rekindled romance + two wealthy families + both leads have no past relationships]
Three years ago, she saw him with Xia Zixuan. They spoke intimately, and he smiled at her tenderly.
So she left without hesitation, without even saying goodbye.
Three years later, they meet again at a banquet.
Mo Ziqing thought she had long since forgotten Lu Chenxuan, but as their gazes meet again and again across the banquet hall, she realizes she overestimated herself.
On the balcony, Lu Chenxuan tries to explain the misunderstanding from years ago, but Mo Ziqing’s coldness and distance leave him at a loss.
Then, to Mo Ziqing’s surprise, at every meeting she attends, a low, jarringly familiar voice raises objections.
“This proposal won’t work!”
“It’s too long-winded and unrealistic!”
“The promotion is too rigid. It’ll just waste money.”
The people in the meeting room exchange uneasy glances, and the atmosphere turns strange.
“You’re doing this on purpose,” she says, staring at him coldly.
“Yes.” He admits it without hesitation. “You told me to keep my distance, so this is the only way I can keep an eye on you.”
She is momentarily speechless, then sneers. “When did you become so… willing to lower yourself?”
“Since the day you left.”
His brief reply sends an inexplicable tremor through her heart.
When he returns to the company, he discovers that Mo Ziqing is no longer in the office. Realizing she has disappeared without a word for the second time, Lu Chenxuan panics.
This time,
he doesn’t just want her to come back.
He wants her back by his side.
