Gu Beichen, heir to the Gu family and top-tier star of Harbor City, holds power over half the city. Cold and aloof, he is a god beyond the reach of every socialite who would do anything to get close to him.
His birthday banquet is nearly impossible to get into, yet for one person alone, he is willing to bend.
On the rainy night Meng Qingqing dumped her cheating scumbag boyfriend, she stumbled into his car, covered in injuries.
She had no idea that one glance was enough to drive the man who had been plotting to win her over for years completely mad.
After three years of loving the wrong man, her heart died and she let go.
Then, with a single turn, she walked straight into the gentle prison he had spent his youth building for her.
The moment she twisted her ankle at a banquet,
Gu Beichen, who had always kept his distance from women, dropped to one knee in front of everyone. He gently supported her ankle in his palm, his voice low and husky:
“Take it slow. Don’t fall.”
The whole room erupted.
This wasn’t some spur-of-the-moment indulgence.
It was an obsession that had taken root in high school and consumed him to the bone.
He never wanted a fleeting pleasure.
He wanted to make her part of his very being and cherish her as the only woman he would ever marry.
