Shen Xun x Shi Li [Reunion after a long separation / winning back his wife / she pursues him at first / (polished, restrained doctor with a villainous streak x beautiful actress who gets away with anything)]
Everyone knows that Shen Xun, a professor at S City Medical University, is taciturn and proud, with a gaze cold enough to freeze anyone in their tracks.
Behind his gold-rimmed glasses are dark eyes that radiate absolute restraint. He is proud and aloof, and the women around him say, "He's so handsome my legs won't close," while secretly wondering which girl could ever tame him!
Shi Li, who pursued him for years without success and is now filling in for a friend, hears the rumor and laughs loudly. "Shen Xun will spend his whole life with a scalpel. He's definitely never getting a wife. His equipment probably doesn't even work."
"Tsk, who would like such an old-fashioned stiff?"
As soon as she says this, Shen Xun taps her shoulder from behind. His voice is rich and resonant, his expression gentler than she's ever seen. "Miss, come to my office after class."

After finally winning the aloof beauty, Shi Li decides that older men aren't all that special. A younger puppy is much fresher.
After a night of wild abandon, Shi Li slips away. Before running off, she leaves Shen Xun a message: "I was young and foolish when I liked you. Now I'm clearer-headed than ever."
Shen Xun, seized by panic, lowers his eyes and smiles. Had this girl been deceiving him from beginning to end?
She has already stolen his heart. How could he possibly let her go?
Half a month later, at a large matchmaking event, Shen Xun gazes at Shi Li, who's "on the cutting edge of fashion," and curls his lips into a faint smile.
After a long pause, he asks softly, "Sweet Li, do you really not want to marry me?"
"...Why are you here?" Isn't this supposed to be my date with the genius son of the Jiang family? Shi Li's eyes widen in disbelief.
At this, Shen Xun gives a quiet, amused laugh, his rich voice turning husky. "My father is surnamed Jiang, so I'm your blind date."
"You're that infatuated Young Master Jiang I've turned down so many times?" Shi Li is secretly thrilled, even her teeth beginning to itch with excitement.
"..."
Shen Xun's ears turn red. He firmly wraps an arm around her waist, his burning gaze locked on hers. "Shi Li, did I give you permission to use me and then toss me aside?"
