The day Huai Mi broke up with her boyfriend, her mother fell ill, and she went to take care of things with the medical paperwork in hand. That same day, her sister-in-law's family ran into trouble and urgently needed someone influential to help. Everyone at home turned pleading eyes toward Huai Mi, the only person in the hospital room with connections.
She was the only one in the room who could do it.
Huai Mi's slender back stiffened. She couldn't bring herself to speak.
She didn't dare tell them that the only connection she had was someone she'd known back in college. Years had passed, and he was now powerful and influential, while she had long since disappeared into the crowd. He might not even recognize her if she stood right in front of him now.
As it happened, she hadn't been at the hospital long when she unexpectedly ran into him on the same floor. Someone from a prestigious family had fallen ill, and they'd booked out the entire floor.
After all these years, he still had the same familiar face. He was mature and composed, his career flourishing, and carried the taut energy of a grown man.
When they met again, he only gave her a cool glance.
She thought he'd probably forgotten that night they'd shared, and forgotten her, too.
She didn't dwell on it. That evening, she picked up her lunchbox and got ready to leave.
But downstairs, his Bentley was parked at the hospital entrance. He was waiting for her in the back seat.
The man rested an elbow against the seat, his face as impassive as ever. He watched her quietly without saying a word, but she knew he was waiting for someone to get in.
And she had no room to refuse.

In Wen Xianyu's world, he would only ever choose one person to love in his lifetime.
His love was direct, openly expressed, and possessive.
But she left. In the nights they spent apart afterward, he felt the loneliness and even tasted a tender, aching pain that belonged only to the depths of his heart.
When they met again, she sat to his left in the car as he quietly gazed out at the city at night.
She put it gently: "You know I've started a new relationship. I've forgotten everything about the past."
But he only smiled faintly, as if mocking her, or as if he couldn't care less.
"Is that so? Then has your body told you it's forgotten me?"
