Everyone in Jiangcheng's wealthy circles knows that Song Wangshu is passionate, yet fickle.

The Song family's fake heiress and true power broker, she took control of the company in under two years, lifting the struggling Song family into a position everyone clamored to curry favor with. She had money, looks, and a great figure, and one lover after another came and went. No one lasted more than three months.

She had loved every one of them equally, and equally, she had loved none of them.

Until Qian Moyan.

The young man had a ravishing face and loved beauty and dressing up. Every time he saw her, he made sure to look his best, even choosing his perfume to suit her tastes.

Everyone said he was only after her money and had not the slightest feeling for her.

She knew.

He was vain, snobbish, vulgar, and frivolous. Even their first meeting had been planned by him.

But she was happy to spend money on him.

Later, the company ran into trouble. Its cash flow dried up, the shareholders tried to force her out, and her competitors kicked her while she was down.

She thought he would leave. After all, he had always only wanted money.

But on a rainy night, he knocked on her door. His salary, the money he'd borrowed, and his property deed were all piled on her desk. He was putting everything he owned on the line.

He lowered his head, his voice hoarse. "It's all here. Could you... please not leave me?"

For the first time, someone who valued money above all else felt that money wasn't so important after all.

Many years later, she came across an old diary.

An abandoned orphanage, moonlight, a white dress, and a pair of warm hands.

The last page contained just one sentence: Find her, go to her, and stay by her side without wavering.

[Reading Guide]

1. Strong heroine, weak hero. The heroine calls all the shots. The hero is a clingy, pampered little husband: vain, needy, and prone to making a fuss and threatening to break up. He loves only the heroine from beginning to end.

2. Reunited after a breakup, with the hero marrying into her family. Happy ending, sweet all the way through.

3. Each other's first love. The heroine is not a virgin, the hero is.
