(I changed the background a little. I think this version is more exciting.)
[Story Blurb]
Shi Yixi has loved Su Sui for many years. After going to great lengths, she finally gets to wear his ring.
After the engagement banquet, she searches everywhere for Su Sui. At last, by the pool in the back garden, she sees him embracing a woman. Only then does she learn that he has had a longtime love, his cherished Bai Yueguang, named Li Jiangyue.
The proud eldest daughter of the Shi family, who has held her head high for over twenty years, flees in disarray. But as she turns to leave, she crashes into a warm embrace. She lowers her head and tries to walk away, but the tears spill out before she can stop them.
Wen Yanchi freezes. The teasing remark on his lips catches in his throat. Impatiently, he grabs her wrist and leads her away. "Why are you crying? Where's that fire you usually have when you go up against me? He cheated on you, so just cheat on him back!"

It isn't until the day Shi Yixi says she wants to call off the engagement that Su Sui realizes she has long since made a home in his heart.
But when Wen Yanchi brings her home to dinner, Su Sui learns that she has already turned away and fallen into the arms of his half-brother.
The rain is pouring that night.
In the study, Su Sui grabs Wen Yanchi by the collar and demands, "Why do you have to fight me for everything? You let her go back then, so what are you doing coming back now?!"
Wen Yanchi gives a careless grin. "I didn't fight for her back then because she loved you. But she doesn't love you anymore, brother. You missed your chance, so don't blame fate for turning against you."
Su Sui smiles. "You were the one who brought Li Jiangyue to the engagement banquet, weren't you? Does Yixi know how ruthless you are?"
Wen Yanchi narrows his eyes. "You wouldn't dare!"
Su Sui straightens his collar. "Then let's compete fairly!"
