He's Just a Bodyguard

[Complete] [Next novel: Whispers to the Wind, a secret-crush story. Add it to your reading list!]

Cheng Ruanruan, the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, was spoiled and haughty, a renowned beauty held in high regard among Nancheng's wealthy circles.

The one time she ever suffered a setback was in her second year of high school, when she confessed to Ning Ye, the school heartthrob.

In front of the entire school, the young lady presented Ning Ye with a pair of limited-edition sneakers, making no effort to hide her "admiration" for him.

The boy had just left the basketball court, sweat still dampening his hair. He didn't even look at her. He simply said, "Boring," then walked away.

When they met again, she was still the same young lady. Now, with time on her hands, she'd started her own event-planning company.

The proud, aloof boy had grown into a taciturn man working for a security company.

She happened to need a bodyguard, so she asked for him by name.

After that, everyone saw a quiet man at Cheng Ruanruan's side.

She took him everywhere. Whatever she asked him to do, he did without a word.

People suspected that even if Cheng Ruanruan asked for the moon, he'd find a way to bring it down for her.

They thought he was her new boyfriend, but she gave a scornful smile. "Him? He's my bodyguard!"

At a business reception, someone saw the young lady drunk, pinning the man against a wall. Her eyes red, she said, "Ning Ye, the man I want is a man I can get!"

The man stood straight and looked down at her. After a long moment, he suddenly bent down and kissed her.

Xin Nian's whole life seemed to be spent enduring the subtle cruelty of those around her.

Her parents were always reminding her, "We're just an ordinary family. You need to be sensible and listen."

Her friends said, "People like us do the most good by not making trouble for society."

Her teacher said, "Xin Nian is actually quite clever, but she doesn't really focus on her studies..."

The most daring thing she'd ever done was secretly slip a love letter into Xu Chengze's desk when she was seventeen.

The admired prodigy glanced at the name on the envelope, folded the letter into a paper airplane, and sent it flying into the trash.

There was also a wind chime with the letter. She never found out what he did with it.

He would probably never know that the young girl had written this line: Every time the wind chime rings, it's me quietly telling the wind that I love you.

A secret-crush story.

Theme: Love matters, and so does one's career
