Jiang Li always thought that Xie Lingsheng, the head of the Xie family, was simply an elder she should respect.

That is, until her twentieth birthday, when she accidentally discovered a room filled with photographs documenting her everyday life over the years, along with one after another of the little things she had lost.

The once cool and dignified man finally let go of his restraint. The feelings he had hidden for eight years could no longer be concealed.

Ever since they met when she was twelve, he had kept her in his heart. He planned every step in silence, protecting her from every scheme and trap.

In the eyes of others, he was aloof and distant. Only with her was he consumed by devotion, showering her with every favor.
