Su Yan once longed for a loving family more than anything.
Full of hope, he went to the Jiang family, wishing to earn his father's affection, his older brother's approval, and his little sister's closeness.
Su Yan spent more than ten years trying, but in the end, he finally faced reality.
No matter how hard he tried to please them, he could never warm the hearts of the Jiang family.
In their eyes, compared to the impostor who had stolen his place, he was the real outsider.
Lying alone in a cold hospital bed in a foreign country, Su Yan regretted everything.
Fortunately, fate took pity on him and gave him the chance to start over.
In his new life, Su Yan no longer yearned for the family who lived in a gilded mansion.
He refused to return to the Jiang family and chose to live with the grandmother who had raised him.
He did many things and experienced a rich, colorful life.
What Su Yan never expected was that the gazes that had once looked down on him from above now watched him with deferential admiration.
Those gazes spoke to him of regret.
His father had been wrong. Su Yan was the only child he had ever hoped for.
His eldest brother had been wrong. He never imagined that Su Yan was the benefactor he'd spent years searching for.
His little sister had been wrong. It turned out Su Yan was the very idol she worshipped.
When the truth finally came to light, Su Yan smiled.
He no longer needed the Jiang family's love, as unreal as a reflection in water.
Su Yan had a career he loved, family who cared for him, sincere friends, and the precious lover fate had given him.
Lately, there's been a rumor among A City's elite: Zhong Di, the head of the Zhong family, who has never been interested in people, has found someone to marry.
Everyone was instantly curious about the person who had won the heart of this top tycoon.
Some guessed the tycoon's spouse was so ugly they were afraid to be seen in public. Others speculated it was a marriage of convenience and that he had no feelings for his spouse, which was why he never brought them along.
Then the tycoon appeared as Su Yan's partner in a video interview with an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage. The usually frosty tycoon gazed at Su Yan with tender affection.
Only then did everyone realize that the beloved partner of the Zhong family head was none other than the exquisitely beautiful, clear-voiced, multimillion-follower influencer who promoted intangible cultural heritage.
Please add my upcoming novel, Mr. Meng Is Jealous Every Day, to your collection!
Yun Ji was once a student sponsored by Meng Zhuo's mother.
When Meng Zhuo saw him again years later, Yun Ji had grown into a man who could captivate anyone with a single glance.
Many people were infatuated with Yun Ji, and Meng Zhuo was no exception.
Though he had already paid back the money to his benefactor, Yun Ji remained deeply grateful.
Auntie Meng never expected anything in return and treated him like her own child.
But Auntie Meng's much-praised eldest son always gazed at Yun Ji with a shadow in his eyes, as if he needed Yun Ji's help.
Yun Ji would bring Meng Zhuo a cup of hot tea when he was tired,
and let him stay the night when he was exhausted and sleepy.
Yun Ji's thoughtfulness left Meng Zhuo intoxicated, and his tenderness made Meng Zhuo long for him desperately.
But even after they had been intimate, Yun Ji seemed to treat him no differently from anyone else.
Meng Zhuo couldn't bring himself to take his frustration out on Yun Ji, so he viewed everyone who received special treatment from him as a thorn in his side.
Mr. Meng's daily life.
Serious and proper on the outside, handsome and extraordinary.
On the inside, he's frantically keeping score in his little notebook. Let's see, how many times did my wife smile at some random guy today?
Reading guide:
Yun Ji (bottom) x Meng Zhuo (top): a gentle, clever beauty x a once cool and reserved top who later becomes insanely jealous and possessive
Theme: Learn to love yourself before you can love someone else
Why is it repeated? And why did Zhong Zhe's name suddenly change to Han Yunzhang? Is it hard to get used to it???
I finished reading it in one go, and it felt like my eyes were going to be swollen when I woke up. I cried to death 😭
Why do I see duplicates? Am I stuck??
Wuwuwu, all human traffickers should be like 😭 Wuwuwu XX I feel so sorry for him, he is still so young.
It's been said like this, why can't I think of it?
Seeing now, I feel that all the Jiang family members are seriously ill.
Oh my God! Yanyan is also too good [Green Heart]
"Jiang Xian" gave the author a big worm~ It should be Jiang Zhuo
"Song Hai" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ This is the first time I've read a novel and there are so many bugs. I hope I can change it soon.
Alas, I wonder if the author's backend has a one-click search and replace function. Who is this name?
