[Reunion after years apart | Rekindled romance | A CEO groveling to win his wife back | The powerful one bows his head | Redemption | Happy ending]
Three years ago, everyone knew He Yucheng had someone he cherished above all else.
The untouchable prince doted on an unloved “illegitimate daughter” without restraint. No one dared criticize or provoke her.
Three years later, Xu Jin’an returned to Xicheng, only to become someone the man called “irrelevant.”
Everyone said it made sense!
Their breakup three years ago had been so ugly that He Yucheng must hate her and never want to see her again.
Yet He Yucheng kept approaching her of his own accord:
[Xu Jin’an, why couldn’t you have made something of yourself before showing up in front of me again?]
*
Xu Jin’an knew He Yucheng hated being used. She had “betrayed” his wholehearted love, so she assumed they’d never speak again for the rest of their lives.
But without knowing the truth, He Yucheng still chose to lower his head:
[Xu Jin’an, use me one more time.]
[Just use me to climb higher. Do what you want and become who you want to be.]
[I’ll take care of everything, as long as you don’t cut me out of your life.]
Xu Jin’an: “But I’m getting engaged.”
At the engagement party, He Yucheng said, “The weather’s nice today. Perfect for crashing a wedding.”
*
Some people thought He Yucheng was too obsessed, forgetting the pain as soon as his wounds healed:
[Congratulations to Young Master He for cutting out his lovesick brain. Now he loves Xu Jin’an with no brain at all.]
Then He Yucheng learned the truth about their breakup.
Only then did he realize how much Xu Jin’an had suffered because of him. His eyes reddened with heartache. “I’m sorry. I failed to protect you…”
Xu Jin’an: “We both had our reasons back then. I never blamed you.”
One misunderstanding and three years of detours. He never betrayed her, and she never owed him anything. The difference is not love, it is a late truth. He Yucheng's hatred was untenable, and Xu Jinan's grievances could not be expressed. Reunion is not about chasing after your wife, it is about telling each other again what you didn't finish three years ago. (I originally planned to read dozens of chapters before posting a book review, but the plot is interspersed and the causes and consequences are almost explained. I can't wait. I just made a book review with such ambiguity to whet everyone's appetite. Thinking about it, I am getting more and more hopeful [get it])
