Wild, untamable college girl and polished, wicked older man | Six-year age gap | Rekindled romance | Both virgins
🦋
1.
The year Mei Ci met Li Minghe, she was nineteen, a student with sky-high ambitions and a will no one could tame.
Back then, she didn't believe a word men said, much less trust their hearts.
It was just a bit of fun, she thought. No need to take it too seriously.
But later, sometimes she hated him.
And often, she loved him.
She loved the tenderness in his eyes when he was sincere.
She loved how he was more forgiving than she was, and how much more life experience he had.
Hate
What could she hate him for?
Perhaps she hated that youth was so short, that they had only had enough time to accompany each other for a while.
He let her go with such calm indifference.
It shattered all the innocence she'd built up over those years.
2.
She was like porcelain fired at a high temperature.
Smooth and strong, one of a kind, tempered in the flames.
At first, he had approached her out of curiosity, thinking he'd have a perfectly ordinary fling.
Then, in the blink of an eye, four years had passed.
He deliberately shattered this beautiful piece of porcelain, and for years he could not pick up the pieces.
3.
Those who disdain love are punished for it.
Four more years passed. When they met again, she had her arm linked with her new boyfriend's, a false smile on her face.
Li Minghe ignored the hand her new boyfriend held out and stared straight at her
"Mei Ci, it's been a long time."
With those words, he tried to forgive her deliberate distance, as though he were still as understanding as he had been years ago.
But she was no longer the naive girl she once was.
Mei Ci pointed to someone nearby. "Mr. Li, your fiancée is beautiful."
Her white dress set off her red lips, but her words were far from pleasant. "Fang Zhi and I will be getting married soon, too. You're welcome to attend our wedding."
He watched her lips move and, after a long moment, gave a quiet laugh.
4.
After the gathering ended that day, Li Minghe pinned her against the wall.
Her white dress was completely crumpled.
Mei Ci had a flaw that could not be repaired.
But he could no longer walk away as casually as he once had.
For the first time in his life, Li Minghe tasted regret.
