Second Male Lead Takes Center Stage / The Wife He Couldn't Win, His Regret to Burn For
1.
Even years later, whenever Qu Yin revisited her high school days in her dreams, she would always see the uniform stained with red ink, the classroom door locked from the outside, the hearing aid thrown into the trash...
And in that pool of stagnant water, the only bright, living thing was the boy in her memories.
Chen Ke was the darling of heaven, as if he and she were born worlds apart.
When the diary she'd carefully hidden vanished without a trace, Qu Yin thought it was all right if her unrequited love came to nothing.
But the next day, at a turn in the school stairwell, she saw Chen Ke pull a girl into his arms and mock her mercilessly. "Give it up. I could never like you."

They met again at a high school reunion. After a few rounds of drinks, someone asked Chen Ke what he regretted most.
His features were clear and handsome, his figure relaxed, but his voice was heavy with regret. "Hugging a girl I didn't like in front of the person I did."
Qu Yin let out a faint, disdainful laugh and never spared Chen Ke another glance.
On the day a heavy snowfall shut down the city, Qu Yin wore a man's overcoat, her nose red from the cold.
Seeing a coat that wasn't his on her, Chen Ke had no choice but to drop to one knee and set aside all his pride to beg her: "Yinyin, this time, will you let me be the one who loves you?"
The man behind her, immaculate in his suit, walked through the snow with cool detachment in his light brown eyes. He kicked Chen Ke flat on the ground.
Then, gently taking her hand, he said, "How dare you covet my fiancee, Mr. Chen?"
