Lin Wan took care of Gu Huaizhi for seven years.
When she was eighteen years old, her father died and she was taken in by the Gu family. From then on, she was confined to his side for seven years in the name of special assistant. She is the sharpest knife of the Gu family, and she never makes a mistake in doing anything. She hides her secret love in three pieces of iced constant-temperature coffee, a well-matched tie, and every little accommodation year after year.
The low self-esteem of being dependent on others was engraved in her bones. She was always sober and self-possessed, not daring to step out of line. She only dared to hide her seven-year secret love in her heart.
Gu Huaizhi protected Lin Wanzhao for nine years.
Born in the maelstrom of the Gu family, he has long been accustomed to using indifference to disguise weakness, and replacing love with control. He kept a blank check within her reach all year round, quietly replacing her orange blossom fragrance, cherishing her remaining warmth, guarding her with forbearance, keeping silent, waiting for her to take the initiative.
A fake engagement party became the breaking point of the seven-year stalemate.
On the night of his death, Lin Wanzhao filled in the money with five million, hoping to buy off his youth and exit with dignity. But she didn't know that the indelible words on the back of the check were his sincerity that he had hidden for seven years: fill in as much as you want.
Two people who are not good at words, a two-way secret love that spans nine years.
It turns out that the most expensive thing is never the unlimited check, but the rest of his life when he loses all indifference, becomes clumsy and frank, and just runs for her.
Intent: True love is never about tolerating temptation, looking up to one's status, and depleting oneself, but about taking off the disguise, running for it honestly, and achieving evenly matched two-way redemption.
