[Older woman-younger man romance + age gap + long-planned pursuit + push and pull + sexually inexperienced hero, experienced heroine + secret crush comes true]
Shen Xingwan’s biggest mistake in life was thinking Jiang Zhixu was still the little brat who used to follow her around calling her “big sister.”
When she reaches the crucial stage of applying for an associate professorship, he becomes the college’s specially appointed industry mentor.
When her research project needs data, he has his team complete the entire annotation overnight.
When her ex-husband comes to harass her, he steps in front of her and says coolly, “Touch her again, and I’ll break one of your hands.”
At last, Shen Xingwan realizes that every word, every step, and every “chance encounter” has been carefully calculated by this man for twelve years.
He was never waiting for her to call him “big brother.”
“Shen Xingwan, when you got married, I got drunk. Now that you’re divorced, I’m moving in.”
“Now it’s my turn.”
