Reunion after years apart / The Second Male Lead Takes Center Stage / Healing Romance / He’s Loved Her in Secret / Secret Love Comes True / Five-Year Age Gap
When she was twelve, Li Shuang was unconscious with a high fever when Shen Yufeng saved her life outside the Li family home.
From then on, Li Shuang stayed with the Shen family.
Shen Yufeng was her brother in name only. He was gentle, attentive, and endlessly considerate.
Over the years they spent together, Li Shuang gradually developed feelings for the brother she was never supposed to love that way.
Then, on her eighteenth birthday, the girlish thoughts she had secretly written in her diary were exposed to everyone.
In an instant, doubts and cruel gossip came raining down on both the Shen and Li families.
Not long after, Li Shuang was sent abroad.
-
Xie Jihuai, the only son of the Xie family, had been born to a life of privilege and promise.
The first time he saw Li Shuang, she was bringing bottled water to Shen Yufeng.
Back then, Li Shuang was youthful and full of energy.
He deliberately tried to get closer to her, only to learn that she had gone abroad.
-
Four years later, Li Shuang returned to her homeland.
Shen Yufeng was still as charming as ever, and Li Shuang often found herself thinking:
“If you were my real brother, I’d be the happiest little sister in the world.”
Xie Jihuai had given Shen Yufeng a chance, but Shen Yufeng hadn’t treasured it.
Then one day, Xie Jihuai declared loudly in front of everyone:
“I’m going to pursue Li Shuang. Anyone have a problem with that?”
-
Li Shuang and Xie Jihuai got together.
Everyone was surprised.
No one had thought the young master of the Xie family was serious, instead of just joking around.
“If I’d turned around sooner and seen you standing there behind me all along, I never would have let waiting become a habit that lasted for years.”
