A dazzling, brilliant beauty × a taciturn veteran
As the most beautiful associate professor at her university, Jiang Ci considers her looks the least noteworthy of her strengths.
She is clever, sincere, exceptionally good with people, and highly capable.
Yet her beautiful face forces her to endure pointless socializing. For years, she has guarded her reputation and treated everyone with impeccable courtesy, but no one understands how exhausted she is beneath her perfect mask.
An unexpected turn of events leaves the usually elegant Jiang Ci flustered and helpless at a high-speed rail station, where she meets him.
Pei Xiao is an outstanding veteran of the special operations forces.
Quiet and composed, tall and brave, he has all the qualities of a soldier.
The one thing he lacks is the ability to keep his heart in check around Jiang Ci…
An upheaval in their childhood forced them apart, and Pei Xiao has always longed for a perfect home.
When they meet again, Pei Xiao is determined to stay by her side, no matter what it takes.
One is a bright, beautiful, talented peacock; the other is a taciturn man of few words.
Their reunion at the high-speed rail station gives them the chance to get to know each other all over again.
Jiang Ci smiles faintly and says a few words. Pei Xiao promptly lays out everything he owns, right down to his exact measurements.
Jiang Ci is stunned. Her teasing, aloof probing is met with a steady response from him, and it isn’t just this once. He responds the same way every time after that.
Faced with such a sincere man whose eyes are full of love for her, even her lofty heart begins to waver…
