Qiao Zhen had just turned ten when the Ye family adopted her. She was humble and respectful, always careful and cautious, all so she could secure a place for herself in the Ye family.
But no matter how hard she tried, no one in the Ye household thought much of her, not even the drivers and housekeepers.
Only Ye Huaisheng was different.
He was like a beam of light, falling gently and warmly into Qiao Zhen’s heart during the most desperate winter of her life, when everyone had forgotten her and she had lost her way in the snow.
Everyone in Beijing knew that Ye Huaisheng, the young master of the Ye family, was as refined as jade and immensely talented. At twelve, he swept the national youth piano competition, winning prize after prize. He had a powerful family and impressive abilities, and on top of that, he had a strikingly youthful, devilishly handsome face. Anyone would have to sigh with envy at such a favored son of heaven.
No one expected that the refined young prodigy, at just eighteen, would suffer a sudden calamity, lose the use of his hands, and lose his family. Overnight, he fell from grace, shattered completely, and from then on struggled in the mire, enduring one hardship after another.
That summer, the sky was high and clear, and cicadas sang in the trees.
The college entrance exam results were announced, and Qiao Zhen had earned the top score in the humanities track.
During an interview, Qiao Zhen remained silent for a long time. Then she looked sincerely into the camera, tears glimmering in her eyes, and said each word clearly: “Brother Huaisheng, where are you? Zhenzhen misses you so much. Could you come find me?”
“Qiao Zhen, why are you still following someone like me?” On a rainy night, during an argument at a bar, Ye Huaisheng, reeking of cigarettes and alcohol, roughly shook off Qiao Zhen’s hand.
Caught off guard, Qiao Zhen fell to the floor. Looking at the man before her, bristling with hostility, she still couldn’t help seeing the gentle, mild-mannered boy he used to be.
* A gentle, clever little white rabbit x a beautiful, strong, tragic man who has fallen from grace (piano prodigy x well-behaved top student)
* No confessions or romance before the main characters are adults.
* Content warning: The heroine is slightly love-brained, and the plot is somewhat melodramatic. If that bothers you, proceed with caution.
Theme: Gentleness and love
It's so heart-wrenching. Both the male and female protagonists are angels who came to earth to suffer, right? QAQ
I really saved my life. Although there is a reason why the male protagonist is down and out, and there is also a reason why the female protagonist is dependent on the male protagonist, the simple summary of this matter is that the female protagonist gave up Qingbei and ran to Jida for a "bad person" (not that the male protagonist is really a bad person). . . Mom disagrees!!! Woo woo woo
I hate. . . . . . . . . . . Why should this be so. . . . . . A good platform is far more important than finding a person. I hate it.
I like it, very nice article
Zhenzhen and brother Huaisheng clash!!!!

Why didn't you see the extra in wb?
This is he, right? The male protagonist is so miserable, please don't make it worse, okay? Feeling distressed
