Li Zhinan was taught from childhood: If you want something, you have to go after it yourself.
After taking a liking to Cheng Yu, the aloof beauty who resembles her former lover, she makes him an offer: "Stay by my side for three years, and I'll pay for your mother's treatment."
With her arms around Cheng Yu's neck, she feels him stiffen and resist. Li Zhinan laughs softly. If I can force the melon off the vine, that's good enough. Who cares whether it's sweet!
*
Cheng Yu is widely recognized as the most handsome student at F University. His temperament is as cool and distant as the moon hanging high in the sky, but because of his mother's illness, Li Zhinan forcibly drags him down to earth.
"Stay by my side for three years, and I'll pay for your mother's treatment."
Before the three years are up, Li Zhinan leaves a note and disappears. Five years later, Cheng Yu sees her again.
The woman is pale. She rests her head against the car window, propping it up with her left hand, her eyes closed and brows faintly knitted. Her right hand presses against her stomach.
He has long since saved enough to repay her. Countless times, Cheng Yu imagined throwing the money at her, cursing her for looking down on him, and returning every insult she'd ever hurled at him, word for word.
His eyes roil with a thousand emotions. He presses his lips together, but in the end, he silently offers her the omeprazole he carries with him.
When Li Zhinan sees him, she only smiles faintly and says, "Cheng Yu, long time no see."
Cheng Yu clenches his fists tightly. This wicked woman!
