Powerful man loses control + older, protective love interest + slow-burn romance + both leads are each other’s only one
Distinguished chief prosecutor + rookie female lawyer
Fang Wen and Shen Zezhi grew up together. He was closer to her than her own brother. On the day she won her first major case, she put on the dress her best friend had hidden away for her, ready to confess her feelings.
He said, “This is my fiancée.”
Fang Wen swallowed her tears and raised her glass with a smile. It was fine. It was only an arranged marriage, after all. They might not end up together.
In Fang Wen’s eyes, Ji Shuheng belonged to another world: a distinguished prosecutor from a prominent family, aloof and untouchable. She did her best to avoid him, and even calling him “Brother Shuheng” felt presumptuous.
Then, at a family gathering, he suddenly stood up, walked over to Fang Wen, and took her hand.
Their fingers interlaced.
“No need to go to any trouble,” he said. His voice was quiet, but the whole room fell silent. “The person I love has been right here in front of everyone all along.”
Fang Wen looked up and met those ever-composed eyes.
