   Look! It's all about the long-awaited reunion, the broken mirror mended! It's about the bittersweet tug-of-war between the male and female leads, the undercurrents between them, the feigned indifference yet intensely caring, the tormenting, maddening restraint and heart-fluttering emotions! This book truly nails it! Admit it! You're captivated by this book too! The male and female leads were together in high school, then separated, reunited at the peak of their lives, and have grown in their own ways. The male lead becomes an investment tycoon, and the female lead is a capable guesthouse designer. Their reunion four years later is particularly poignant, filled with a bittersweet tension. The undercurrents between the male and female leads, their feigned indifference yet irresistible attraction, their restraint yet yearning—it's agonizing and agonizing. It's exceptionally well-written and truly worth watching and savoring repeatedly! Synopsis: A seemingly rebellious but actually passionate man × a seemingly innocent but actually manipulative woman / A roguish investor VS a cool and aloof guesthouse designer. Long-awaited reunion + reconciliation + male's unrequited love + prodigal son's return + pursuit of his wife + campus life + 1v1, both are virgins + mutual redemption + bittersweet romance. Two characters from Qianhe No. 1 High School are the most famous and memorable. Chi Jiazhou is unrestrained and roguish, wild and untamed; Jiang Yi is bright and aloof, sweet and obedient. No one puts them together, and no one knows that he fell in love first. Later, when they get together, everyone is shocked, waiting to see them break up, but all they see is the boy's unrequited love. Just when everyone is marveling at the prodigal son's return, Jiang Yi dumps Chi Jiazhou and disappears without a trace. Four years later, they met again in the corridor, the air thick with tension. He coldly blocked her path, his eyes churning with suppressed pain and hatred: "Jiang Yi, did I say—don't let me see you again?" A misty haze blurred his reddened eyes. She merely raised her gaze calmly, her voice utterly emotionless: "Then I'm sorry, Mr. Chi." Truly, not a trace of past affection remained. * Later, on a stormy night, soaked to the bone, he knelt before her, his dignity shattered, his eyes red: "Jiang Yi, I fucking admit defeat. Even if I have to be a dog, I'll accept it. I'm willing to be your lapdog for life." "Please… tame me one more time." * He would never forget the cold, resolute way Jiang Yi dumped him; he thought she only harbored hatred and revenge towards him. Until after their marriage, he found a faded old photograph—on the back was her delicate handwriting: The moment you pushed open the door, I saw the belated spring. You are like a spring mountain, and I have longed for you for so long. It turned out, his unrequited love had already resonated. * Chi Jiazhou, I love you. Earlier, deeper, and more silent than hatred. We each had our own difficulties back then, but we started anew. Want to know how the male and female leads broke up? Princesses, please read on to unlock more of their sweet and bittersweet daily life!
