Cold and crazed beauty on a lofty peak x spoiled, dazzling jewelry designer
Rekindled romance / trading barbs in public, passionately in love in private / friends with benefits to official couple
1.
Everyone who knows Yan Zhenzhen knows she's spoiled, willful, and wild.
That is, until she meets Fu Shaoheng.
His aloof, untouchable demeanor, like that of an exiled immortal, makes Yan Zhenzhen secretly vow that she will definitely play with him...
Win him over!
So she uses every trick in the book to pull this cold-hearted, cold-natured genius down from his altar.
Only after winning him over does she discover that Fu Shaoheng is not what he seems. He looks cool and chaste, but in private he's domineering and possessive. Even one kiss is enough to leave her defenseless.
After one wild night, she flees and sends him a one-sided breakup message: "It was just for fun. Don't take it seriously."
Then she disappears without a trace.
Everyone knows she pursued him, but no one knows they had a brief, secret relationship. It was like a tide no one knew about: surging as it came in, silent as it receded.
Fu Shaoheng is every bit the favored son of heaven.
His family background, looks, and academic record are all impeccable. But he's overly composed, disciplined, and indifferent to others, making him the lofty flower everyone speaks of.
Even someone as proud as him has been cruelly deceived. She said the sweetest things with her most innocent face, then vanished overnight without a word.

When Yan Zhenzhen returns to the country to start a business, she lands and gets two bombshells:
Her studio's business partner is her ex-boyfriend, Fu Shaoheng.
Her new office is in his company's building.
She hasn't even opened her mouth at the project meeting when he looks up coolly.
"Designer Yan, you're three minutes late."
Everyone thinks they barely know each other, or even dislike each other.
Until the night of the celebration banquet, when she gets a little tipsy.
The next day, she wakes up in a hotel to find Fu Shaoheng's handsome face right in front of hers, and a conspicuous bite mark on his pale collarbone.
Her mind goes "buzz," and she grabs her phone and slips into the bathroom.
When the call connects, she lowers her voice and wails to her best friend:
"It's over... I think I accidentally went back for seconds with my ex."
Before she can finish, the bathroom door opens behind her.
Fu Shaoheng leans against the doorway, his robe hanging loose, his voice low and hoarse with sleep.
"Went back for seconds?"
He takes her phone and hangs up.
"Yan Zhenzhen," he says, lowering his head and brushing his nose against her ear. His voice is so slow it makes her heart race. "You've got it wrong."
"It's not going back for seconds."
"It's the part you left uneaten seven years ago, which I've been saving for you all this time..."

Everyone thinks Fu Shaoheng and Yan Zhenzhen don't get along.
On Yan Zhenzhen's birthday, their friends arrange a "make-up gathering."
In the private room, the two sit across the table, not even bothering to look at each other.
The mood drops to freezing.
Halfway through, Yan Zhenzhen goes to the restroom and doesn't come back for a long time.
Fu Shaoheng disappears at the same time.
A friend steps out for a smoke and spots them in a dark corner of the hallway.
Fu Shaoheng pins Yan Zhenzhen against the railing, kissing her fiercely and deeply. His voice trembles, hoarse: "You can toy with me all you want, but don't ever tell me you're sick of me again."
There's none of his usual pride or coldness. He's clearly gone mad with love.
The next day, office gossip spreads: "Mr. Fu's house is on fire, and there's no putting it out."
