[Both pure, happy ending]
Zou Ye was a handsome man with a slim waist and long legs, gorgeous and perfectly put together, beloved by everyone. But for a man this stunning, every major moment in his life was painfully awkward.
He first met her on a train traveling from south to north. Lu Li looked as delicate as a doll in a shop window, but at the time she'd been robbed by a pickpocket and was forced to wear ragged clothes. Their first meeting was awkward indeed.
Then came his first confession, and she rejected him on the spot. Lu Li didn't just turn him down coldly. She even made up a story about being in an online relationship, though she had no such partner. She only said it to reject Zou Ye.
His second confession took place inside a coffin in an escape room. They were squeezed into a cramped space, where even the air was hot. Zou Ye leaned over Lu Li. "I never thought I'd be confessing to you like this."
It was still awkward, but at least Lu Li didn't reject him again. His long wait hadn't been in vain. He kissed her deeply.
Lu Li felt he had grown much more mature over the past three years. She stared in a daze at the man before her, at his handsome, straight profile. Zou Ye held her chin and asked, "Do you still want me to kiss you?"
A fiercely capable, devoted man x a sharp-tongued, scheming woman
