Lu Yan is a sweet, obedient, and outstanding young woman.
The devastating end of her first love completely changed how she viewed life and love: love is an outcome, not a process. No one loves the weak.
When she enters the workforce, she resolves to keep climbing and become strong. Along the way, she won’t fall in love easily, much less end up in a loving relationship with any man.
Until she meets Liang Jiming, and her heart is moved.
She struggles to hold back, hoping that once the project is over, she and Liang Jiming will have nothing more to do with each other. Not even a man like him can make her abandon her climb toward strength.
After the project celebration, Liang Jiming knocks on her door. His eyes are deep, his smile faint. “I’m offering myself to you tonight. What do you say?”
Slightly tipsy, Lu Yan kisses him.
The next day, Lu Yan finishes her temporary assignment and returns to her original company.
She thinks that night was just a brief fling, but Liang Jiming comes after her.
The investment banking tycoon Liang Jiming pursues her relentlessly, willingly becoming Lu Yan’s secret lover for three years.
When the Liang family pressures Liang Jiming to marry, he asks Lu Yan to make their relationship official. She says she’ll think about it.
Three days later, Lu Yan disappears. Liang Jiming is furious: “Lu Yan, you tricked me again!”
P.S. Neither lead is a virgin.
