One
To rebel against the arranged marriage planned by her rich father, Jiang Li "kidnaps" her dog-brother, the golden retriever Mango, who shares neither of her parents.
That afternoon, she meets Jin Yanci.
The man looks at the listless golden retriever and calmly gives clear instructions: "Get in the car. Navigate to the nearest veterinary hospital."
Seeing that his car and shirt have been smeared with dirt, Jiang Li opens her phone. "How about we add each other on WeChat?"
He responds with a cool look.
In October, Jiang Li's pet campsite has its grand opening.
Through the bustling crowd, she spots a familiar-looking figure.
He holds a black Hasselblad in his long-fingered hands, intently framing his shot. His features are as distant as mountains and clear streams, even his lips set in a cool, proud curve.
Her assistant says quietly, "I think he's applying for the pet photographer job."
Jiang Li: Great. :)
Two
The Jin family of Beicheng is a media-industry giant. Just back from overseas, the second son, Jin, becomes a hot new name among the social elite thanks to a silhouette photo that tops the trending searches.
Rumor has it he keeps to himself and is indifferent by nature, with no interest in either the family business or women.
His only romantic scandal is the aborted engagement to the eldest daughter of Jiangjian Real Estate.
At the end of the year, Jinyuan Media's cute-pet variety show, The Inn for Furry Friends, premieres. The "Jin-Li" ship takes the internet by storm.
In the show, the stunning girl gently comforts a wronged-looking golden retriever, then strides over to find the culprit, her eyes blazing with anger:
"Jin Yanci, how many times have I told you not to let your son ride Mango again!"
Jin Yanci glances at the Czech wolfdog beside him, holding a frisbee in its mouth. Lowering his eyes, he looks proper and self-restrained. "As you wish, boss."
In a hidden corner, he leans close to Jiang Li's ear. His low, languid whisper is caught by the microphone:
"So, can I share a tent with you tonight?"
Viewers: Aaaah, goofy golden retriever x domineering wolfdog, ship rating 100%! Tsundere heiress x scheming gentleman, ship rating 100,000,000%!!!
Insiders: ?????
Is this how rich families show off their love?
Three
Later, her best friend is very curious about the details of Jin Yanci's proposal.
Jiang Li smiles, looking like a smug little fox.
It was a starry night. She stepped out of the warmly lit tent and saw a golden retriever carrying an envelope in its mouth.
Inside was just one postcard printed with a British landmark. On the back was Jin Yanci's familiar handwriting:
[Meeting you
was the wind by the Thames blowing into a midsummer dream,
an 8,800-kilometer journey, a miracle of life.]
She looked up and fell into a pair of eyes brighter than the stars.
