The Wilderness at Dawn

A derivative story of "A Bottle of Wangzai Milk for You" featuring the secondary couple

A story about a ruthless, ambitious bad man who has to go through hell to win his wife back

"Desire-driven schemer X clear-headed, independent young actress"

The day Zhou Li realized she had fallen for Ye Ming was the day she had her heart broken.

She knew Ye Ming was no ordinary man. He was reserved and ruthless, never showing his emotions. A man like that was dangerous.

Zhou Li knew she had to leave, so she smiled and said, "Goodbye. I hope you rise to the top and get everything you want."

Later, Ye Ming's identity was revealed, and sure enough, he rose to the top. A multinational company's CEO, a favored son of heaven, handsome and low-key, he became a major focus of the media.

When Zhou Li saw Ye Ming again, he stood out in the crowd, dazzling and beyond her reach.

She instinctively turned away. She felt awkward about doing so, but he might not even remember her.

They ran into each other several more times, so often that Zhou Li didn't dare read too much into it.

Until...

In a corner, Ye Ming pulled her into his arms, pressed his lips to her ear, and asked in a low, forceful voice, "You avoid me whenever you see me?"

"No..." Zhou Li struggled to deny it.

"Liar." Ye Ming gently bit the tip of her reddened ear.

The heat between them was burning.

"Zhou Li, I did rise to the top. But I still haven't gotten what I wanted."

Zhou Li froze and slowly raised her eyes.

Ye Ming looked deeply into her eyes and said softly, "I'm sorry. I was too arrogant before."

"I'd never felt anything like it before, so I didn't understand at the time. That was what love felt like."
