Shen Lin feels that her newly signed "contract boyfriend" is very worry-free.
Lin Qingyan, a junior in the Department of Finance, is clean, gentle, and has eyes like a newborn deer.
He would remember her adding half a cup of sugar to her coffee, bringing her warm porridge when she was working overtime, and silently handing her a blanket when she was staring at Bai Yueguang's relics.
His just-right dependence and occasional clumsiness seeped into her tightly coupled life like a ray of light.
She thought she had everything under control until—
She accidentally caught a glimpse of the talented young man trading under a pseudonym in the financial headlines, and his profile was frighteningly familiar.
She came home late at night and found him, who always said he was "afraid of the dark", sitting quietly in the living room without turning on the lights, his eyes sober and sharp, not the least bit fragile.
She accidentally learned that he was present at the scene of the accident that changed her fate three years ago.
"Lin Qingyan," she pressed him against the wall, her voice trembling, "who are you?"
He lowered his long eyelashes, gently held her cold hand, and pressed it against his warm chest, where her heartbeat was like a drum.
"It's you who is panicking now," he whispered, that familiar, heart-melting vulnerability returning to his eyes, but hiding a hint of a successful smile, "Or me?"
Later, Shen Lin understood:
All of his carefully planned "accidental encounters" are approaches that have been planned for a long time.
Every bit of "vulnerability" he has at the right moment is a trap to induce her to become soft-hearted.
His show started with a lie, and the only real script was - loving her.
