After I Saved the Cold and Cruel Boy, He Went Wild Fighting for All My Affection

Gentle, healing ray of sunshine x Obsessive, unhinged, beautiful and tragic heir

[Salvation | Schooldays cohabitation at first | Urban reunion later + winning her back + mutual pampering]

What Song Jinzhao regrets most is not telling Shen Du sooner that he deserved to be loved.

When they first met, he was covered in bruises, gloomy and thin, like a dog that had been kicked too many times.

She was the one who reached out first, drawing closer to him again and again and giving him a home.

He kept his distance, so she came closer;

He was cold, so she was gentle.

Eventually, he smiled again, and after that, he smiled only for her.

If she so much as looked at someone else, he would sulk all day.

If she smiled at someone else, he would slash his palm just to make her worry about him.

He said, "Song Jinzhao, smile at him again and I'll die for you."

She thought he was just being difficult and smiled as she made a promise: once they got into college, they would officially be together.

But that fire ended up destroying everything.

The day his family took him away, she told him, "Shen Du, live well. We'll definitely meet again."

She told him to live, so he fought with all his strength to stay alive;

She said they would definitely meet again, so he gritted his teeth and lived for seven more years.

Seven years later, he had become the feared heir to the Shen family, cold and ruthless.

But every night, he took out that faded gardenia brooch, remembered her words over and over, and suffered alone.

Until one day, he pushed open the door of a child psychology counseling room with his niece.

Song Jinzhao wore a white cardigan and a gardenia brooch, sunlight falling all around her.

She looked up in surprise, then smiled, her eyes reddening. "Shen Du, long time no see."

He stood in the doorway, his fingers trembling uncontrollably.

No one knew that he had waited, lonely and tormented, for seven years just to hear those words: long time no see.

This time, he walked toward her and told her, "Song Jinzhao, I can't live without you."
