Mu Yunchen, thirty-two, is the head of the Mu family. Cold and unfeeling, he rules with an iron fist and is ruthless. No one in the entire capital dares to provoke him lightly.
He has always kept everything under his control and believed neither in tenderness nor in exceptions, until one stormy day at the airport, when he met Su Wanning.
At twenty-nine, she is an independent designer, like a gardenia reaching toward the sun: gentle, clear-headed, and strong enough to stand firm.
A small act of kindness unexpectedly finds its way into the heart he has kept frozen for years.
From then on, the cold-faced CEO softens his sharp edges, giving all his affection and tenderness to her alone.
He cherishes her, protects her, and wishes he could lay the whole world at her feet.
But family opposition, schemes, and a scheming socialite who keeps closing in, along with a carefully plotted misunderstanding, drive them cruelly apart.
He is forced to leave and cuts off contact. She bears everything alone and lets go with a broken heart.
Years pass. Their love goes unfulfilled, and longing makes them ill.
When they meet again, he is a powerful man who can turn the clouds and rain with a wave of his hand, while she has long since withdrawn her heart and resolved never to look back.
Mu Yunchen pins her into a corner, his eyes red and his voice hoarse and humble:
“Wanning, I was wrong. Let me spend the rest of my life making it up to you, okay?”
The early chapters are overwhelmingly sweet, the middle heartbreaking, and the later chapters feature a groveling pursuit of a wife. A happy ending throughout.
You are the obsession I can never find in the depths of the clouds, and the Wanning I want to protect for all my life.
