[Heiress × Insecure Heartthrob] [Secret Crush Turns Mutual] [Saving Each Other]
Song Yuan followed her heart and returned to the country, hoping to find an answer.
The night was hazy, glasses swayed, and in her tipsy state she unexpectedly stumbled into his strong, steady arms.
The moment she looked up, her gaze met his deep, bottomless eyes.
Ten years had passed, and he was nothing like the frail boy she remembered.
The once thin, delicate boy had shed his awkwardness and transformed into Mr. Gu, one of Nancheng's most powerful young magnates: cool, composed, and commanding.
She was just about to say, “Long time no see,”
when a woman's voice suddenly came from behind him: “Brother Aci.”
“What you cannot have when you're young will haunt you for the rest of your life.”
When Gu Ci first read those words, he scoffed.
Until one day, as he struggled desperately to make ends meet, a real princess in a pretty dress suddenly entered his life. She was elegant and generous, confident and composed, and every other halo seemed dim beside hers.
In that moment, Gu Ci found something he wanted, something he would do anything to have…
“Even if your gaze never rests on me, I will love you with all my life…”
When the moon finally deigned to light up his lonely, desolate life, Gu Ci was grateful that fate had been kind. His youthful dreams had not imprisoned him for the rest of his life.
“I spent every last bit of my luck just to meet you.”
