Shang Yan’ai never imagined that a misunderstanding at a yacht party would lead to one reckless night with Li Muchen, the aloof, taciturn company president no one dared to cross.
Shang Yan’ai tried to act as if she didn’t know him, but Li Muchen kept closing in.
“Miss Shang, you wouldn’t let go of me last night. Now you don’t know me?”
“Mr. Li, we’re just colleagues.”
“Colleagues who’ve slept together?”
Shang Yan’ai thought Li Muchen was approaching her because he couldn’t accept being the one she left behind.
When her father fell gravely ill and urgently needed surgery, he took care of the medical bills.
When her ex wouldn’t leave her alone, he stood in front of her and drove off everyone who tried to hurt her.
When the core code for a major game project was leaked and she became the company’s prime suspect, everyone waited for her to take the blame. Li Muchen was the only one who kept investigating despite the pressure.
He never told her he loved her.
He simply dealt with her problems with a cold expression, appeared whenever she needed him, then pretended he had done it as a matter of course.
After misunderstandings, betrayal, and the project leak, Shang Yan’ai gradually saw through the aloof, seemingly unapproachable man. He had already given her all his favoritism.
At last, she couldn’t help asking, “Li Muchen, when did you start liking me?”
He held her captive in his arms and answered softly, “Earlier than you think.”
Shang Yan’ai never knew that the night on the yacht wasn’t the first time Li Muchen had noticed her.
Long before all the misunderstandings, he had already spotted her in the crowd.
That accident was simply the first time, after years of secretly loving her, that he finally got close.
