Rekindled romance + reunion after years apart + a powerful man bowing to love + mistaken belief she’s the other woman + both inexperienced + love at first sight
Jiang Leng never expected to run into Shang Shixu on her first day back in the country.
Three years ago, they planned to get married as soon as they graduated, but a car accident on the eve of graduation ruined everything.
Shang Shixu fell into a coma. Jiang Leng sold everything she could, including the house her parents had left her, but even that was nowhere near enough to cover the staggering medical bills.
With no other choice, Jiang Leng went to Shang Shixu’s mother for help.
Mrs. Shang: “I can save A Xu, but only if you leave him forever and stay as far away as possible. You’re a burden to him. If it weren’t for you, he’d be the heir to the Shang family. Why would he be unable to afford his medical bills?”
Jiang Leng: “All right.”
The first thing Shang Shixu did when he woke up was look for Jiang Leng. He was afraid she’d be worried, afraid she’d be sad, afraid she’d be crying her heart out like a fool…
But everyone told him that his Jiang Leng didn’t want him anymore, and that she was with his best friend.
He refused to believe it. He searched for her desperately, but he couldn’t reach her by phone, WeChat, QQ… not at all.
Then his mother showed him the breakup letter she had forced Jiang Leng to write.
Looking at the familiar handwriting, Shang Shixu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. This was for the best. As long as she was safe.
Three years later
When he heard Jiang Leng was back in the country, Shang Shixu couldn’t wait even a second to go find her.
He had planned to be angry with her and make a scene.
But he was also afraid Jiang Leng really didn’t want him anymore.
Crying, he begged her, “Baby, break up with him and come back to me, okay? If not, I can be the other man and let him be the one on the side.”
