Waiting for Dusk

[Female lead has had previous partners, male lead is inexperienced + younger man with a calculating, sweet facade]

Qin Jiao has barely graduated from college when she receives a hefty present: her once inseparable parents are divorcing and leaving her in charge of the company.

With money, beauty, a great figure, and a company of her own, she’s a bona fide rich heiress and executive. Everyone wants to be kept by Qin Jiao.

But no one expects her to choose a dirt-poor college student.

They say he’s the eldest child, the one his family never cared for. His mother died young, his father remarried and refused to acknowledge him, and he doesn’t even get any support money.

He’s grown up with only his grandmother for company. To get by, he has to work his way through school and earn enough to support them both.

Qin Jiao’s heart aches for him. Money is the one thing she has plenty of, and a vulnerable college student with a mother but no father’s love is exactly the sort of person a wealthy young lady like her should rescue.

Huo Yu has lived with his grandmother since he was three. After his mother died, he never saw his biological father again.

During his first summer break at college, a friend invited him to take a summer job. Wanting to ease the burden on his family, Huo Yu agreed.

There, he met a woman he was attracted to. But when coworkers told him she was rich, all he could do was steal an extra glance whenever she came by.

He never expected that woman to offer to keep him as her lover!

While Huo Yu stood there stunned, his friend accepted on his behalf.

And just like that, he became Qin Jiao’s lover. But he didn’t want to be only her lover. He wanted to be her husband.
