Xie Yunyi is most afraid of two things in her life: one is the ever-extinguishing lights on Chang'an Street, and the other is Zhao Jingning's bottomless eyes.
Ten years ago, he was the arrogant young master of the Zhao family, and she was the noble and proud jewel of the Xie family. An accident happened, and he pushed her away with his own hands, leaving her in the rainy night at the Xie family's old house, where she got wet all night. From then on, there was a rumor in Beijing circles: Fourth Young Master Zhao abandoned the girl of the Xie family for the sake of his future.
Ten years later, she was the sharpest French translator at the Beijing Foreign Affairs Office, and he was the acting mayor of Beijing with a smooth official career.
They met again at the international summit. He was covered in weather, and his eyes were filled with the guilt of ten years: "Thank you for the translator, it's time to sweep away the fallen leaves on Chang'an Avenue."
She smiled coldly: "Mayor Zhao, that's your road, you sweep it yourself."
In order to atone for his sins, Zhao Jingning was willing to lay down his body and squat at the entrance of Xie's alley all night just to tie her shoelaces once;
In order to protect her, he did not hesitate to break up with the family. Even if he was taken away by the Discipline Inspection Commission, he would not tell her name.
But Xie Yunyi is no longer the girl who could only cry.
When Zhao Lide was framed, public opinion encircled and suppressed, and family pressure came one after another, she stood in the center of the storm with a sharp blade in hand, shielding him from the wind and rain for half his life.
"Zhao Jingning, do you think you are chasing me?"
"No, you are working as a swordsman for Xie Chongwen."
