How Can I Let Go?

Second chance romance | Reunited at the start | Each other's first love | Marriage first, love later When Yu Yitong and Zhou Congyu broke up, she steeled herself and stubbornly said, "I've gotten over you a long time ago." They met again when she pretended to be drunk by the roadside. She was taking a gamble: would Zhou Congyu still stop for her? Across from her, the man was refined and aloof, no longer the young man he used to be. "You said you'd marry me after graduation. Does that still stand?" She rarely dared to be so bold, but Zhou Congyu only smiled carelessly, his tone edged with sarcasm. "I've gotten over you a long time ago too, Miss Yu." - After they married, Yu Yitong kept bringing up their past, only for Zhou Congyu to brush it off with a casual, "I don't remember." It was only when his warm palm wrapped around her waist again and again that Yu Yitong couldn't help shoving him and cursing him. Zhou Congyu pressed his lips to the spot behind her ear, his hand gripping her chin without easing up. "Your vocabulary is so limited. After all these years, you still only know how to call me crazy at times like this." Yu Yitong: ? How come you remember that? - Yu Yitong realized Zhou Congyu had been pretending to forget everything on a rainy night, after her college senior walked her home. Outside, a typhoon was passing through. Inside, Zhou Congyu covered her in relentless kisses, leaving no room to breathe. Yu Yitong's eyes brimmed with tears as she asked what had gotten into him. Zhou Congyu's restrained voice was hoarse and full of resentment, his gaze dark and desolate. "Yes, everything between you and him drives me crazy." "I hate every day he spent with you during those years I was gone." 1v1 | HE | SC They are each other's only love, body and soul, from beginning to end.

Add it to your bookshelf! -- Marriage first, love later | Stealing someone else's partner | He has a secret crush After receiving proof that Chen Mingchao had been unfaithful before they could register their marriage, Ruan Xinyu felt that Heaven was saving her. She printed out the entire email and flung it at Chen Mingchao, then packed up everything connected to him and dumped it in his office. As she turned and walked out, she ran into Chen Mingchao's cousin, Jiang Xuheng. - As the most powerful figure in the family conglomerate shared by the Jiang and Chen families, Jiang Xuheng was someone Ruan Xinyu had only met twice. The first time, Chen Mingchao had taken her to dinner at the family home. Jiang Xuheng sat across from her. When Ruan Xinyu looked up, her gaze accidentally met his. Jiang Xuheng's eyes were deep, and Ruan Xinyu quickly looked away. The second time was now. Jiang Xuheng strode up to her. He looked down at her, his expression still cool, but his voice was clear and elegant. "Forget him." Ruan Xinyu laughed ruefully and asked Jiang Xuheng how she was supposed to do that. The next moment, she saw emotions roil in his dark eyes before his lips parted. "Marry me." "Want to give it a try?" - Ruan Xinyu admitted that part of the reason she accepted Jiang Xuheng was out of spite. She hated Chen Mingchao for moving on so easily, yet she still couldn't stop herself from tearing up the night she saw him again. Jiang Xuheng held her captive in his arms, swallowing every soft, broken sob as he reined in his anger and forced her to look only at him. "If you can't forget him..." His long, slender fingers traced down Ruan Xinyu's back from her waist. His breath brushed her nape as he let her tremble in his arms, as if punishing her. "Then what do you call what we're doing now?" /Your breath, your heartbeat, every dawn and dusk of your life, should belong to me alone. 1v1 | HE | SC Theme: Cherish the person in front of you
