Velvet Allure

[The Ex's Road to Redemption]

A sweet, well-behaved rich girl x a total jerk

School life in the first half, city life in the second

1. Years later, they meet again. Yan Youning has become a rising star in business: distinguished, restrained, and exceptionally capable.

But in the eyes of his ex-girlfriend, Jiang Youqing, he's a worthless bastard.

When they're alone, he reveals the wicked side he hasn't shown in years and blocks her path.

"Pretending you don't know me? Have you forgotten? That rainy night, in the basement, we..."

Jiang Youqing looks at him with her beautiful eyes. Sure enough, he's still the same bastard.

2. Jiang Youqing loved Yan Youning for five years.

He was the morning star in the heavens, while she was just one of countless people looking up at him.

She really started trying to get his attention at a high school classmate's birthday party.

During a game of Truth or Dare, Yan Youning pulled Jiang Youqing onto his lap and kissed her as if it were all a game.

But Jiang Youqing unexpectedly deepened the kiss.

Afterward, everyone teased them: "What's going on with you two?"

Yan Youning held Jiang Youqing in his arms and cleared the room with a stern look.

Then he said to her, "You're a good kisser."

The usually well-behaved Jiang Youqing lowered her eyes and asked, "Want to try again?"

3. Yan Youning was a carefree playboy. He formed a band at school and became its lead singer.

He was the kind of popular figure who drew a crowd wherever he went.

Countless women tried to win his favor.

When the same girl appeared at his side five days in a row, everyone teased him: "Has our star come down to Earth and fallen in love?"

Yan Youning smiled. "A girl this beautiful is throwing herself at me. Why would I turn her down?"

He probably never imagined that one day he would pitifully clutch the hem of Jiang Youqing's clothes and beg her:

"Can we get back together, hmm?"

She wore that same familiar smile. "I was just playing around with you. Why did you take it seriously?"

Theme: I'll shine on my own, until you fall in love with me.
