[Reunion after years apart + secret love comes true + tenderness at its finest + mutual devotion]
[Workplace and romance, a sweet story about two devoted partners who cherish each other]
[Gentle, scheming tech mogul × clear-headed, independent brand executive]
Four years ago, she invited him to watch the flag-raising ceremony at dawn.
Bright and resolute, she told him, “Yan Mingzhou, hold fast to your convictions and bravely pursue your dreams.”
He promised he would.
But he knew she was the one thing he could never let go of.
When they met again four years later, she didn’t recognize the man on the high-speed train who had locked eyes on her at first sight.
But that didn’t matter. He had come for her.
Xia Yuanwei had thought that after they said goodbye four years ago, their chance encounter and the feelings neither of them could quite put into words had reached a perfect ending.
She never expected that a business partnership would bring them together again four years later, and that her heart would once more spiral out of control.
Later, Yan Mingzhou drew her into his arms and kissed her gently, little by little, from her forehead to the corner of her mouth.
His restrained yet candid breath brushed her lips as he asked, “May I?”
Xia Yuanwei’s eyes grew red from his kisses. Flustered and at a loss, she still held him tightly and answered with conviction, “Yes.”
When an old love is rekindled, either it was never truly broken, or it can’t be put back together in the end.
Xia Yuanwei figured that she and Yan Mingzhou didn’t really count as an old love rekindled.
At most, they were reliving an old dream.
Until later, when he held her close and she heard him say:
“Yuanyuan, you’re not a dream.”
“You’re the most real thing in my world.”
He was tenderly falling for her, and he had been planning this for a long time.
She was slow to realize it, but her heart had fallen too.
