Name: After We Reunited, Mr. Fu Spoiled Me Until My Legs Went Weak
Author: Li Bai Never Works

Synopsis

“Your skills are terrible. I'm bored of you.”

Five years ago, Xia Ran announced their breakup unilaterally, then disappeared without a trace.

He put on a cold face and threw out a retort. “Was I looking for you? I'm a dog if I was.”

Five years later, he returned home. At a gathering with friends, someone mentioned her name.

He swirled his glass and sneered. “Her? As if she deserves me.”

Everyone at the table thought he had moved on long ago.

Only he knew that on the night he said, “As if she deserves me,” he smoked half the night.

Then, at a project meeting, she walked into the conference room as the designer.

Their eyes met, and the pen in his hand stopped for a full three seconds.

In public, he called her “Miss Xia,” polite and distant, never even sparing her a sidelong glance.

That day, the project discussion ran late, leaving just the two of them in the conference room.

She gathered her things to leave, but he reached out and held the door shut.

“Xia Ran.”

She didn't turn around.

His voice was taut as a string about to snap.

“Five years ago, you announced that we were breaking up. I didn't agree.”

“If I didn't agree, then it doesn't count.”

Later, at the celebration banquet, he pinned her against the door of the lounge.

The lights were off. Only the light from the corridor slipped through the crack in the door, illuminating his lowered eyes.

He rested his forehead against hers. His breath was scorching, his voice so soft it sounded like a plea.

“Wife, can we make it public now?”

“I've held back for so long. Let me make up for all of it tonight.”

He had never once won against her.
