[Second Male Lead Takes the Lead + Older Man’s Devotion + Reunion After Years Apart]
[Clearheaded, Independent Rose with Thorns VS Deep, Obsessive Man in Power]
Wen Wan grew up neglected by her family. Cool and sensible, she was the top student and campus beauty at A University. She never dared to hope for anyone’s special affection, until Lu Jin’s kindness moved her. She gave him her whole heart, believing she had finally found her light.
But at a family banquet, she met Lu Jin’s uncle, Lu Linzhou.
A man in a position of power, deep and unfathomable. One look was all it took for him to recognize her, and his long-dead heart began beating again.
Not long afterward, Wen Wan caught Lu Jin putting her down as “just a pretty plaything” to save face. All their happiness shattered. She broke up with him without hesitation and came to believe that the wealthy were always heartless, treating love like a game.
So when Lu Linzhou approached her, she stayed guarded and distant, deliberately keeping him away.
She was afraid of being let down again, afraid of once more becoming someone who didn’t matter.
But Lu Linzhou was never acting on a whim.
He didn’t pressure or rush her. He quietly protected her, took care of problems both openly and behind the scenes, and was there to steady her when she was at her most vulnerable. With patience, he wore away her anxiety. With every thoughtful detail, he showed her he was different from the others.
When she finally let down all her defenses, the man pulled her tightly into his arms. His voice was low, burning with possessiveness as he said:
“Wen Wan, I’m not here to play with you.
I’m here to tell you that you deserve to be cherished, and to belong to me for the rest of your life.”
From falling for her at first sight to carefully plotting every step; from protecting her in silence to claiming her for the rest of his life.
He healed all her wounds and gave Wen Wan all the love in the world.
