[Content warning: Angsty male lead, gender-swapped substitute romance, and the male lead is definitely sexually inexperienced.]
The author's imagination knows no bounds. Anything could happen in this novel.
The male lead is mostly shown being tormented, and the second female lead, Zhao Jing, appears very often.
Wen Jing, head of the Wen family, one of Jingcheng's four great business dynasties, was at the pinnacle of high society. In her youth, she had been wild and carefree.
It's said that one of her admirers once managed to make her stop in her tracks, but felt inferior because of the vast gap in their family backgrounds. Wen Jing's business rival then arranged to have him sent abroad.
One rainy day, a chance encounter at a cafe.
Wen Jing suddenly remembered the person she had kept buried in her mind for so long. The corner of her mouth lifted as she gently tilted his chin up with her finger.
"You really... look so much like him." Her slightly hoarse voice reached Shen Huai'an's ears. He lowered his eyes, trying his best to ignore her gaze as she sized him up.
The heavy weight of time on this woman was mixed with a hint of arrogance. Like a jar of strong liquor, she captivated him, and from then on he was drunk on her, never to recover.
Even if he was only that person's substitute... he was willing.
Shen Huai'an thought he could leave a mark in Wen Jing's heart that belonged to him alone.
Even if it was only a tiny one.
But the woman lying beside him never murmured his name in her sleep.
She called for someone named Wen Yu.
So what? He was always Wen Jing's male companion at banquets. The person on her arm was him, Shen Huai'an, not Wen Yu.
Everything was so perfect.
Wen Jing proposed to Shen Huai'an, and they had even planned their wedding date.
But a week before the wedding, Wen Yu came back.
The Wen Yu who had existed only in everyone's memories.
Shen Huai'an almost couldn't keep the bright smile on his face.
He watched with his own eyes as she slowly pulled her hand from his, then took step after step toward that man.
Theme: For women, what is love, anyway? A career is what matters most.
