    They were childhood sweethearts, yet he repeatedly told everyone about her embarrassing crush on him, claiming it was bothering him. Heartbroken, she hadn't confessed and could only hide her feelings like a coward. Her unspoken love always brought her to tears. He finally asked her if she had a crush on him. Unaware of his sweaty palms, she countered by asking if he had a crush on her. Her hands trembled, and she tried to remain calm behind her back. His ears turned red, and his heart pounded uncontrollably. He seemed about to pull something out of his pocket, but she, like a coward, ran away. He transferred schools, and they thought they would never be entangled again. In college, she heard that familiar voice being confessed to by the school beauty. He called her his girlfriend, but then told her she was just a shield. Enraged, she publicly insulted him. Both of them were torn between love and hate, suffering immense pain. Torn between bitterness and despair, everyone said she was lucky enough to be ordinary and even rejected the school heartthrob. She ran away arrogantly, unaware that her mother's heirloom, a yellowed pearl hairpin, was missing. She cried as she looked back, only to see him holding the hairpin and giving it to her. The school beauty stomped on her and threw five yuan at her, humiliating her. She decided to take revenge, threatening him to see the school beauty with her. The school beauty later offered her money to leave him, and she agreed, then suffered amnesia. He, however, took advantage of her amnesia, claiming to be her boyfriend. His mother found her and offered her five million to leave him, and she agreed to study abroad as quickly as possible. Upon returning home, she didn't know he had become her CEO. She regained her memory, and he proposed. She only cared about the ring, not him as a free gift. He imprisoned her. During their marriage registration, she tried to escape, but he blocked her way. At the wedding, the school beauty appeared.

    I'm a little hesitant to post this, but I personally really like it. I highly recommend this book; it's super good, with tons of sweet interactions between the male and female leads. It's a domineering CEO romance novel where the relationship develops from marriage of convenience to love. The male lead is jealous, cunning, and arrogant, while the female lead is a shrewd and adorable girl.
