Synopsis

【A restrained, gentle power player in Beijing’s elite circles × a cool, resilient fashion student】【Reunion after years apart + six-year age gap + mutual devotion + devoted husband + happy ending】 A serious illness at the age of seven left Xu Heqiu with gaps in her childhood memories. After eleven years apart, they meet again in the height of summer, and one glance throws their lives into disarray. Xu Heqiu returns to China and gets into Jing University, where she meets Gu Shuo, the aloof, distant man of the rumors. At a dinner party, their families’ old friends tease him for bringing a woman to dinner for the first time. His childhood friend, whom he is expected to marry, eyes Xu Heqiu with hostility and probes her in front of the entire room, eager to see how things unfold. He offers no explanation or denial. Instead, he steps in front of her and firmly shields her slight frame, tacitly accepting every rumor about their relationship. As they part on campus after dinner, he brushes a stray lock from her temple with his fingertips and murmurs her full name, concealing all the feelings he has kept in check. But when he turns back to the car, the cigarette ember flickers in the dark, and all his gentleness vanishes. He stubs it out and fixes his childhood friend with a cold gaze. “If you keep watching her, our families’ friendship is over.” The old affair that everyone in Beijing’s elite circles avoids discussing begins to stir on the day she returns. The truth behind the Xu family’s hasty departure from Beijing, the taboo order the Gu family has kept under wraps, and the investigation driving his every step closer to her form a fine web that draws them together once more. When the fragments of her childhood finally fit together and every long-buried taboo is broken, the reunion that began in late summer at last brings them the happy ending they deserve.

Sophisticated Angst with Smart Characters and a Logical Plot

Looking for books similar to Palace Wall Willow. It doesn’t have to be the kind where the male and female leads must fight to the death, with one of them inevitably dying. There can be national hatred and family feuds separating them, or a divide between righteousness and evil. The story should be logical and reflect the thinking of normal people.
