[Gentle relic restorer × unrestrained business tycoon]
Lin Yinong, a Jiangnan beauty, is the quietest presence in the world of relic restoration. She speaks with millennia-old artifacts, letting time flow through her fingertips. Her heart is like ancient porcelain, translucent yet resilient.
Fu Yan'an, a legend in the business world, is the most unrestrained player in the world of wealth and fame. He commands a capital empire and delights in breaking the rules. His motto is, "Everything is negotiable."
They meet through an arrangement made by their grandparents. She is absorbed in a thread-bound book, wearing no makeup, yet his heart skips a beat. At first, he thinks it's just an entertaining new game, and teases the "little rabbit" who has wandered into his world.
Until he sees her with his own eyes, standing alone against the flood of capital to protect a national treasure about to be lost overseas. Her gaze is filled with a brilliance and determination he has never seen before.
At that moment, the worldview he had always been proud of quietly crumbles.
Later, the young master of the Fu family does two things that shock the whole city. First, he rejects a real estate project worth tens of billions because fragments of a civilization might lie buried underground. Second, at an auction, he pays an astronomical price for a damaged Tang Dynasty Buddha statue, all to make her smile.
"Fu Yan'an, this isn't like you," people sigh.
He only gazes at the gentle figure in the restoration studio and smiles softly. "You don't understand. For the first time in my life, I've found something more meaningful than conquering the world.
A meeting that begins with "teasing," a grand romance about "protection" and being reborn.
A very calm and peaceful article. The plot basically revolves around the heroine's expertise in restoring cultural relics. The details are full and unambiguous, the main line is clear and not greedy for too much, and the intention is clear. The heroine is a technical expert with low worldliness and a simple emotional world. I was once worried that the author would match her with a real playboy for a superficial "complementary relationship", but fortunately there was no such thing. The heroine's extremely pure aura needs support and protection, not contamination. Frankly speaking, there were two points in the first half that made me hesitate to deduct points. One was that the heroine's best friend was too supportive, and she directly said some things that needed to be understood and interpreted. The other was that the young man named Lu had some unpleasant things to say, and always gave the impression of the hero as a prodigal son. If I hadn't checked it out in advance and the author said that the hero was clean, I would have given up on the story. Fortunately, there are no bloody branches in the emotional line. The male and female protagonists are both people with inner determination, they are very compatible, and they complement each other in their careers. Overall, the flaws do not overshadow the merits, four and a half stars.
I really like the roles of restorers and archaeologists. The article is very well written and majestic. It has historical context, inheritance, and flavor. It is worth reading.
I've finished reading it. I've hit a plateau in reading novels during this period. I can't read anything anymore. I accidentally searched for this novel. It's unexpectedly very good. I really enjoyed reading it. Come and read it.
