In the eighth year of Shen Jiayao's secret crush on Zhao Shuyi,
Zhao Shuyi takes the initiative and proposes a marriage alliance. He has only six words to explain why: “Good character, not high-maintenance.”
She accepts without hesitation. Even if his businesslike attitude is like a bucket of cold water, even if he chose her only after weighing the pros and cons.
On their first day living together, he records her fingerprints and carries her luggage.
She thinks he cares about her too, but he says coldly, “Know your place. Don't embarrass the Zhao family.”
Before their class reunion, Zhang Jiajia tags everyone in the class group chat: “Shuyi and I will be arriving a little late.”
But no one knows that the cool and restrained Zhao Shuyi has already made countless exceptions for her in secret.
He lets her sit in the passenger seat reserved for him, publicly announces they're a couple, and quietly protects her. He may be stubborn, but he's soft-hearted, hiding his favoritism behind his restraint.
Cool and taciturn, he knows nothing about love, yet he keeps making concessions for her alone, slowly falling for her.
Later, someone asks Zhao Shuyi, “Why did you choose Shen Jiayao of all people?”
He is silent for a long time, then says, “Maybe it's because that day at the police station, she was scared to death, but still tugged at my sleeve.”
