Clear-headed, patient schemer x gentle, obsessive heir
[Blurb]
Li Jing is a celebrated prodigy of Hong Kong Island and a decisive, formidable heir to a wealthy family.
Before starting her job, Zhou Yi had heard that the newly appointed CEO was cold, ruthless, and unfeeling.
She never expected that when she faced injustice at work and had nowhere to turn, he would trust her unconditionally and punish the people who had wronged her.
What she never expected was that she would become his secretary. He introduced her to influential people, supported her in starting her own business, and protected her in the business world.
Zhou Yi fell for him more and more, and finally worked up the courage to confess her love to Li Jing. The two naturally got together.
But their happy days didn’t last. News broke that Li Jing was engaged.
As his official girlfriend, Zhou Yi had once been envied by all the girls in Hong Kong. Now she became a laughingstock across the city, because Li Jing’s fiancée wasn’t her.
The love she’d believed in became, in his eyes, a matter of each taking what they needed.
He believed wealth and power could keep her firmly in his grasp.
He used every means at his disposal to demote her from his official girlfriend to a mistress with no name or status.
On the day of his engagement.
Li Jing personally put a diamond necklace he’d carefully chosen around her neck. In a gentle voice, he said, “Be good and wait for me to come back.”
Zhou Yi lowered her gaze to the glittering, enormous diamond. It was even bigger than the engagement ring the media had revealed two days earlier. She looked up with a happy smile. “I’ll wait for you.”
Then she rose onto her toes and gently pressed her lips to his.
Li Jing closed his eyes in satisfaction, savoring her initiative as he deepened the kiss.
He didn’t notice that Zhou Yi’s eyes were half open, her gaze lifeless.
As soon as he left, she grabbed the bag she’d packed days earlier and set off on the hiking trail she’d planned in advance.
That night, the media went wild with reports that Zhou Yi had gone missing and died in an accident. Li Jing, frantic, went into the woods alone and searched all night, finding nothing. He returned in a wretched state.
In the fourth year after Zhou Yi disappeared, a short video went viral online.
In the video, a little girl rode a horse at a gallop, spirited and bold. Most striking of all, her features looked exactly like Li Jing’s.
Li Jing flew to the Tibetan region that very night.
In front of Zhugu Temple, beneath a peach tree.
Li Jing stared, eyes bloodshot, at a family of three.
The face that had been gone for years seemed not to recognize him.
The little girl looked up and blinked from side to side. “Mommy, Daddy, who’s that uncle?”
After Li Jing pestered them again and again, the little girl finally realized. “You’re the other man!”

Reading Guide:
1. One-on-one pairing, both inexperienced, happy ending, three-year age gap.
2. No rivalry between women. The heroine will have a new relationship later on, with hand-holding and kissing only. The engagement in the blurb never goes through.
3. She runs away while pregnant, though not in the traditional sense of the trope. She doesn’t know she’s pregnant when she leaves, and the child won’t hold her back later.
4. Information about real-world objects in the story comes from online sources. The story is fictional, written for entertainment, so please don’t overanalyze it.
Theme: Love means freedom, not restraint.
