Falling in Love Again

1. In high society, the young heiress of the Chu family is the center of attention.

Out of good manners, she's polite to everyone. But at heart, she's hard to approach, even cold. Everyone knows it.

Until one day, they see Chu Sangluo smiling, her eyes curved and her smile utterly charming and sweet.

Everyone is left reeling. Is this really the Chu Sangluo they know?

But even more unbelievable is that the person across from her remains expressionless.

Someone recognizes him as Jiang Yuhe, a rising star in tech.

2. Chu Sangluo meets Jiang Yuhe by chance. The man is strikingly talented, radiant and noble, with an air of refined restraint.

She falls for him at first sight. Her friend says they have no chance, but she refuses to believe it. So she follows him around every day, hoping she can melt this block of ice.

But Jiang Yuhe remains unmoved. Disappointed, she decides to drown her sorrows at a bar.

To her surprise, through her drunken haze, she sees Jiang Yuhe kissing her wrist with tender longing, his expression wild with obsession.

3. No one knows that the now-glorious Jiang Yuhe was once notorious, his body covered in scars, some deep, some faint.

Back then, the lofty young heiress wandered into a decaying, damp little town and pulled a boy from a pool of blood, promising, "From now on, I'll protect you."

Bright sun, gentle breeze.

The hem of her dress was so white it bore not a trace of dust. She drove away the world's darkness, and laid bare the poverty and inferiority buried deep in Jiang Yuhe's bones.

Years passed. Everything changed.

He was still too insecure to approach her, daring only to reveal his vile nature when she was drunk.

*Once some people get close, even your soul trembles, and there's nowhere to hide your love.

---Pre-release: Stirring Up Trouble. Take a look at the blurb~

The Qin Group has recently expanded into a new line of business and plans to partner with a small internet company.

At a banquet attended by key personnel from both sides, the powerful president of the Qin Group wears a dark expression throughout, speaking with cutting rudeness.

Everyone has heard of his peculiar temper. When he acts up, there's only one word for it: crazy.

No one present has ever felt that every second could drag on so painfully. The small company's employees look ashen, sitting on pins and needles.

Qing Nian lowers her eyes.

She knows all that anger is directed at her.

As expected, Qin Linyuan targets her even more in the days that follow. His sarcasm and taunts are the least of it.

To make things easier for both sides, Qing Nian resigns.

On her last night before leaving, she carries a bottle of liquor to bid farewell to her hometown.

But suddenly she's dragged into a narrow alley. She struggles for only a second before recognizing Qin Linyuan.

Qin Linyuan grips her around the waist, his hold so tight it seems he might crush her bones. His scorching breath falls against the hollow of her neck.

His voice is fierce and trembling. "Qing Nian, are you trying to leave without a word again?"

Qing Nian answers calmly, "What more do you want from me?"

Then he bites down hard on her shoulder. She throws back her head and sucks in a breath from the pain, cursing him as a "madman."

But she doesn't push him away.

She can endure all his ugly emotions, but she will never love him.

Just as she didn't four years ago.

The smell of blood spreads. Qin Linyuan pulls away and closes his eyes in despair and humiliation.

He hates her for deceiving him, hates her for being so cold.

He hates her, and he loves her.

Every time he loses control after their reunion, he's really saying the same thing:

"Qing Nian, please love me."

A cold heart beneath a gentle exterior vs. a madman who keeps himself chaste for her
