An Ambiguous Relationship

[Weekly Updates] Clear-Eyed Realist VS Life Mentor

A major scandal recently rocked Haicheng's wealthy circles. The prestigious Shen family announced that their daughter had a twin sister, who had gone missing for twenty-two years but had finally been found.

However, the Shen daughter had grown up outside the family and had never learned the manners of a proper socialite. The other young ladies in their circle looked down on her and wouldn't let her join them.

The night Mu Xi broke with the Shen family, a heavy rain fell.

She ran out of the villa, soaked from head to toe.

Suddenly, an understated car pulled up in front of her. Ji Siyan got out and walked over with an umbrella.

Mu Xi looked at the rain beyond the umbrella and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to take our Manman home."

"Home?"

The man smiled, his expression relaxed and gentle. "That's right. Our Manman has a home now."

No matter how many years passed, Mu Xi would always remember that night's downpour and the man etched into her eyes.

Everyone in Haicheng's upper circles knew that Ji Siyan, head of the powerful Ji family, was cool and noble, disciplined and courteous. He was the ideal marriage prospect for countless socialites and heiresses. Yet this man had no interest in love and was nothing but a diligent work machine.

Then one day, rumors spread through the upper circles that Ji Siyan was getting engaged. Everyone hoped Mr. Ji would quickly deny it, but soon they received invitations to the engagement party.

On the day of the engagement, everyone discovered that Ji's betrothed was none other than Mu Xi, the girl who had come from the countryside. This was hardly something they could brush off as a mere business arrangement. He was practically doing charity! People wondered if Mu Xi had put a spell on Ji Siyan!

Mu Xi once asked him, "Why me?"

He said, "Manman, our lives are short. I don't want to waste time on meaningless games of chasing each other. I just want to be there for my Manman."

After all the twists and turns, all I want is to give you all my love in the time we have.
