Tan Yunqiu had lost her memory. The man standing before her said he was her fiance.
His black hair was combed back with meticulous care, and his brows were sharply defined. One cool glance from him was enough to spread a chill through the air and make her uneasy for no reason.
His dark bespoke suit only added to his restrained yet commanding air.
She couldn't believe that someone so refined could be her fiance, but he knew all her preferences, including her habit of falling asleep while holding a little blanket.
He took her home. The unfamiliar surroundings and people made her uneasy, but this serious, steady man would come home to comfort her during thunderstorms and put on an apron to cook a feast every weekend.
Married life was peaceful and comfortable, except for one thing.
No matter how late he came home, every night he would gently say good night, then turn and return to the bedroom next door.
As for her, whenever she closed her eyes, all she could picture was his abs beckoning to her!
Just how well she was coping showed in the dark circles under her eyes the next morning.
Enough was enough. She made up her mind: she couldn't keep tossing and turning alone!

The first time Lu Yanli saw Tan Yunqiu, he was scolding his younger sister for wasting time on pointless relationships.
As his sister's classmate and friend, she heard every word and kept her distance from him from then on.
Yet somehow he fell for her, and after years of devotion, all he got was news that she was about to marry someone else.
He gazed at the white wedding dress behind the glass.
As he imagined her wearing it, he told himself, despondently, that it was finally time to let go.
Then an accident happened. He looked at her clear eyes, at her curiosity toward him, and saw that she no longer held any prejudice against him.
He held her hand and kissed the back of it. "Qiuqiu, I'm your fiance."
[I don't want to clip your wings. I'll gently build high walls around you, and let my devotion form a canopy overhead. When you're ready, you'll fall into my heart of your own accord.]
