The Spring Tide Comes Rushing Late

- Spoiled heiress x sweet-on-the-outside, scheming daddy type

- Unrequited love becomes mutual / long-planned pursuit / older brother steals younger brother's wife

Jiang Feng's boyfriend of eight years cheated on her.

At the scene of the affair, her boyfriend's older brother arrived to mediate. Jiang Feng assumed he was there to help his brother and was anything but polite to him. She never expected that this older brother had come to support her in breaking up with his brother.

Jiang Feng was stunned.

What she didn't know was that Zhang Bowen had waited eight whole years for this day.

Jiang Feng knew Zhang Bowen was a good man.

During the time after her breakup, Zhang Bowen took meticulous care of her. He took her out to relax, helped her smooth over her family problems, and even personally resolved the difficulties her company was facing.

When she couldn't take the pressure anymore, Zhang Bowen offered at just the right moment to marry her. Even after they married, he respected and understood her, keeping a polite distance.

She thought she must have saved the galaxy in her past life to meet such a good "husband" in this one.

But as Zhang Bowen gradually shed his gentle, restrained facade, she finally understood that he had been plotting to win her over all along.

Zhang Bowen had been secretly in love with Jiang Feng for ten years. All that time, he watched her go from dating Zhang Xiangming to getting engaged to him, and then breaking up with him.

He used the excuse of checking on his younger brother to visit the city where they lived, learning all of Jiang Feng's likes and dislikes from his brother and slipping in whenever trouble arose in their relationship.

But he never appeared in front of Jiang Feng. He knew he couldn't keep his composure if he had to see the two of them being intimate with his own eyes.

Jiang Feng was shocked when she learned the truth. How had he managed to hold out for so long?

Zhang Bowen knew that people could break up, and that marriages could end in divorce. He had all the patience in the world.
