[Coolheaded, Kindhearted Heiress × Gloomy, Pitiful Wallflower]
Wen Muqing is innocent and kind.
When she returns from abroad, she meets a poor, unfortunate young man.
He is resilient and hardworking, the sort of person who makes you want to protect him.
Wen Muqing cannot help being drawn to him.
She thinks they are in love with each other, until she finds a “Hunting Plan” named after her on Jiang Yubai’s computer.
He had memorized everything she liked, but only because he had carefully investigated her.
Every sweet word he said was a line from his revenge plot.
Wen Muqing hates him, yet cannot help feeling sorry for him. She aches for his wounds, but hates his lies.
Wen Muqing slaps him. “Jiang Yubai, you disgust me.”
But Jiang Yubai grabs her wrist, his eyes red. “I was wrong. It’s all my fault. But I really do love you. I wanted to tell you, but I didn’t know what to do.”
Meanwhile, Lu Qingyan, the older brother who grew up with Wen Muqing, watches it all unfold and even secretly fans the flames.
One deception, born from a feud twenty years in the making.
On the day the truth comes out, Wen Muqing holds the honey-lemon candy and looks at the young man before her, now stripped of every disguise.
“Muqing, give me one more chance. This time, I’ll love only you.”

I may not have improved much since then, so please forgive me if you find it childish or not very good. Of course, I’m also happy to hear your criticism and suggestions. Thank you all!!! ˃̵͈̑ᴗ˂̵͈̑]
