Bai Chuning never expected to run into her first love, Nie Li, at her own company...
He's wearing a black tank top, baggy shorts, and flip-flops, with two buckets of water slung over his shoulder. He's so tall he looks like he's about to break through the doorframe.
After delivering the water, the man acts as if he doesn't know her. He coolly holds out a payment code and says calmly, "WeChat or Alipay, either is fine."
Bai Chuning: "..."
Bai Chuning remembers Nie Li as the son of a powerful family and a rich second-generation heir. Back then, she put up with everything and tried her hardest to please him precisely because he was rich and influential. Now he's fallen so far that he has to deliver water for a pittance.
Fortunes rise and fall, just like the tides.
Can she finally reclaim the dignity she lost back then?
In the past, he'd punish her for no reason. Sometimes he'd make her cook, sometimes do his homework, sometimes wash his stinky socks. The list went on and on.
Even when they were intimate, he'd get perverse pleasure out of making her beg him, even though he was the one who wanted to kiss her.
Of course, the tyrant had his tender moments too.
He bought her pretty dresses, threw her birthday parties, styled her hair, did her makeup, and planted a whole garden of roses for her with his own hands.
Bai Chuning doesn't know whether there was ever any love between them.
Now the wheel has turned. So this is where he ended up?
--
A fallen phoenix is worth less than a chicken, and a tiger out of its mountain can be bullied by dogs.
Of all the people delighted to see Young Master Nie down on his luck, Bai Chuning is the happiest.
She offers him an olive branch and invites him to rekindle their relationship, but this time, they'll be switching roles.
