[Marriage First, Love Later] [A Gentle, Slow-Burning Romance] [Six-Year Age Gap] [Both Leads Are Each Other's First]
At twenty-one, Shen Zhuxi agreed to marry a stranger she'd never met in place of her older sister, to repay her adoptive parents for raising her.
There was no wedding, no bride price, only a marriage certificate and an agreement. She moved into Lu Huaizuo's villa and entered a marriage of convenience.
They would play the loving couple. When their time was up, they would go their separate ways.
On the night she left, rain and snow filled the sky. She disappeared into the darkness, suitcase in hand, while he stood at the door and tasted what it meant to lose her.
They thought they would be strangers from then on, but one person brought them together again. This time, something seemed different.
"I was the first to fall for her, and I'm the one who pursued her."
The cold, powerful man bowed his head and carefully plotted every step, all to win back the girl he had pushed away with his own hands.
Then a secret buried for years came to light.
It turned out they had known each other all along.
It turned out the best kind of love in the world was finding your way back to the same person, no matter how many twists and turns you took.
Lu Huaizuo: You were the moonlight of my youth, and the harbor I'll sail toward for the rest of my life.
Shen Zhuxi: I have always loved you, the person you were then and the person you are now.
