[Career-focused + Reunited, He Pursues His Wife + All Male Leads Are Chaste + A Little Angst for Him + Romantic Rivals]
Cool-headed, highly intelligent, high-energy career-minded heroine Shi Yu X devoted, loyal CEO Jiang Yujin X gentle senior who has always been there for her, Shen Yuming
It is hard not to fall in love with Shi Yu once you know her.
She is smart, beautiful, resilient, and exceptionally capable at work.
She has close friends who are like family, a career she loves, and a boyfriend.
Just as her career and love life are both thriving, the answer she had long stopped seeking suddenly appears.
At last, she tastes the candied hawthorn she had yearned for as a child, only to find it bitter.
She said nothing. She didn’t know how to explain, and she couldn’t. She left only a breakup message, then disappeared.
When they meet again, Jiang Yujin corners her against a wall, eyes red as he questions and pleads with her.
“Shi Yu, what did I do wrong?”
“Shi Yu, don’t leave me.”
“Jiang Yujin... You did nothing wrong, so don’t beg me for an answer like this, here.”
Two years after Shi Yu ended their relationship without warning, Jiang Yujin runs into the heartless woman again at a banquet.
But now she is no longer a consultant working for him. She is a business partner he has to win over.
She looks at him like a stranger, laughing and fooling around with another man at her side.
Jiang Yujin thinks bitterly: How is that fair?
How can she stand here as if nothing happened, with someone new by her side and her career in her sights, yet not the slightest hint of remorse toward him?
She owes him an explanation, doesn’t she?
If she won’t see him, then he’ll fight for her and compete for her, until he gets an answer out of her.
Why did she disappear two years ago?
Does she... still want him?
It's beautiful. It's very beautiful. It's well written. It's both sad and sweet. I like it. Shi Yu& Jiang Yujin
