When Cen Wan was seventeen, she was told she wasn’t her family’s biological daughter.
For four years, she had kept her head down in the Cen family, cared for her younger sister, and tried her best to be an outstanding daughter.
Yet in the end, all she got was being called an “outsider.”
Her creative proposal was stolen, and then she was set up on a blind date.
As the “fake” daughter, she could no longer stay at home.
She fled to London, hoping to take a break from her absurd life.
But the neighbor upstairs went out of his way to get close to her.
He flirted with her on the sly and kept “running into” her every day.
He drove her around and cooked soup and meals for her.
He even blocked her doorway, looking aggrieved as he asked for her WeChat.
Cen Wan and him saw each other all day, every day.
Until her best friend laid eyes on him and was stunned.
“Cen Xiaowan, if you don’t date a catch like him, you’ll regret it!”
Their time together was sweet enough to bubble over.
Not even the gloomy London winter could dampen her spirits.
But she was only there on an exchange program for one year, and then she had to return home to get her diploma.
There was a mountain of trouble waiting for her.
She had to rescue her hopelessly lovestruck younger sister and deal with a jerk.
Oh, and there was also the blind date her family had arranged for her.

Gu Xingzhuo had schemed his way into getting himself a sweet young girlfriend, but when he woke up one morning, the bed beside him was empty.
In a panic, he booked a flight home. He barged into the Cen family’s banquet and grabbed the hand holding up a champagne glass.
Sweat beaded on his forehead, but his voice was calm and certain:
“I was the one who went on a blind date with Wanwan in the first place.”
