Everyone says that He Ci, the heir to the He family, dotes on Jiang Li to no end, even ignoring his family's plans for an arranged marriage for her sake.
Jiang Li believed it, too.
It wasn't until the fourth year, when He Ci's first love returned from abroad, that Jiang Li learned she was only a substitute.
Her dream shattered overnight. Taking advantage of her drunkenness, she tested him: "He Ci, who do you like now?"
His answer only made her give up completely: "Of course, her."
Later, when Jiang Li left with someone else, He Ci stopped her. "Jiang Li, are you coming back with me, or leaving with him?"
Jiang Li linked her arm through the man beside her. Under He Ci's disbelieving gaze, she shed her usual meekness and smiled, sharp and alluring. "Of course I'm leaving with him, Mr. He."
* Gentle swan × scheming tycoon
* The hero pursues his wife after losing her / seven-year age gap
* Important warnings:
1. An old-school, melodramatic story. The heroine suffers first, then the hero.
2. Although neither has been with anyone before, the hero has had a first love. Readers who want an entirely chaste hero or are staunchly devoted to the heroine, please beware.
3. Feel free to curse out He, but don't curse the author. Insults targeting the heroine or the author are not welcome.
4. Please just click away if this isn't your thing. Don't let a story ruin your mood.
5. The heroine has a romantic storyline with the second male lead. Don't read if you can't accept that.
6. If you can accept all the warnings above, dive in! =V=
