Shen Yan was spoiled from a young age. Whenever she took a fancy to something, she always found a way to get it.
Cheng Junyuan was one of those things.
In her senior year, Shen Yan from the software school set her sights on Cheng Junyuan from the history department. She pursued him relentlessly and did everything she could to win over the aloof heartthrob.
But once they were actually together, Shen Yan found Cheng Junyuan dull and rigid.
So Shen Yan simply turned on her heel and left.
Left behind, Cheng Junyuan looked utterly bewildered. He had already picked out names for their future children...
For her, it was a calculated seduction.
For him, it was losing his heart.
Five years later.
Shen Yan, now the owner of her own IT company, heard that Cheng Junyuan was coming back.
After repeatedly studying Cheng Junyuan's photo, Shen Yan slapped her palm on the table and decided to develop a new line of business involving him.
Cheng Junyuan had returned to his alma mater to teach when he saw Shen Yan sitting in on his class.
"Cheng Junyuan, I need an expert in museum education right now~" she said, using the same coquettish tone she had always used with him.
"What does that have to do with me?" Cheng Junyuan said coldly as he walked past her.
Then Shen Yan stopped his already unhurried steps and kissed him by force. "Now it does."
In an instant, the long-dormant feelings in Cheng Junyuan's heart were ignited once more.
Bonus scene:
One day, Shen Yan was out shopping with her young nephew when she ran into Cheng Junyuan.
Cheng Junyuan glanced at the five-year-old, who looked just like Shen Yan, and froze. "Is this your child?"
Shen Yan smiled, her eyes misting over. "Yes, and he's yours too."
Just as Cheng Junyuan stood there in shock,
the little nephew said solemnly, "Auntie, you're using me to pick up handsome guys again."
Cheng Junyuan turned and walked away in a rage.
