Lin Yuwan was cheated on, and her scumbag boyfriend had the nerve to tell her that he had ambitions and she couldn’t help him get ahead.
They were clearly on different wavelengths, so she promptly ended things and walked away.
Before leaving, she even kindly reminded him, “Having ambition is a good thing, but you should know the difference between ambition and shady shortcuts.”
…
On the day they broke up, Jiang Qin, the “older brother” who had been gone for three years, suddenly returned to the country.
And to make things worse, he caught her at a bar…
With the alcohol going to her head, Lin Yuwan once again blurted out what she’d been hiding in her heart. “Bro, how did you get so handsome?”
“You’re so handsome I can’t bear to let someone else have you.”
“There’s no one else. There’s only you.”
It could only ever be you.
But the drunk girl in his arms didn’t hear a thing.
…
Everyone who knew Jiang Qin knew he held himself to the strictest standards, stayed above reproach, and was sharp and conscientious at work.
His friends joked that he was risking his life to repay the Lin family’s kindness.
He said, “I’ll protect what belongs to her.”
“Even if she doesn’t want it, it’s still hers. No one else is allowed to lay a finger on it.”
That included me…
…
His friends said that he was a grown man and ought to settle down.
He said, “She is my home. Wherever she is, that’s where home is.”
“She’s out enjoying life, and I’m waiting. Once she’s had her fill, she’ll come back.”

When they first met, she tilted her tender, porcelain-white face up at him, smiled, and asked, “Big Brother, will you come home with me? I’ll give you a home. Okay?”
Covered in dirt, he looked at the “angel girl” who had suddenly appeared and answered without thinking, “Okay.”
