[Second chance × reunion after years apart × healing and redemption × youth × city life]
Sensitive, gentle genius girl Tan Yu × passionate, headstrong boy Ji Yanli
The thing Tan Yu has never dared hope for in her life: that the spirited boy from back then would grow into a steady CEO and still love her, love her all along.
On the day Tan Yu finished her high school entrance exams, her stepmother gave birth to a boy. From then on, even the last traces of affection her family had for her became a means to manipulate her.
To keep them from getting their way, she needed to earn money and support herself as soon as possible. That was how she met Ji Yanli and became his tutor. She thought she had found someone who truly cared for her, but later realized it might have been wishful thinking.
They met again at a dinner party. Drunk out of her mind, she stumbled into his arms and kissed him impulsively. The next morning, she woke up and left him a note explaining that it had been a misunderstanding.
Ji Yanli clutched the note, remembering everything that had happened the night before.
She had told him he was the one she liked most, so he believed her.
Later, he became her client, and his tenderness showed in subtle ways.
Everyone said Tan Yu wasn’t good enough for Ji Yanli, and even she thought so.
But Ji Yanli knew he was the one who had stubbornly pursued her.
He had accidentally hurt the girl’s heart back then. He had to make it up to her, even if it meant giving her everything.
“Tan Yu will always deserve to be cherished.”
Reader’s note: They reunite at the beginning. Their past story starts in Chapter Three.
