Childhood friends / Mutual unrequited love / Age gap / Aloof CEO x pampered heiress
Liang Qichen, the heir apparent set to take over Gaoyuan Group, is exceptionally capable and handsome, with a refined appearance. He is one of the most sought-after bachelors in Shanghai's elite circles. But he is aloof and keeps women at arm's length, rejecting every offer of an arranged marriage.
Everyone in their circle speculates that Mr. Liang is avoiding marriage and romance because he has some secret problem. A friend in the know jokes, "Mr. Liang does have a hard-to-shake addiction."
Liang Qichen toys with his glass, his gaze falling for the Nth time that evening on his phone, which has yet to light up.
His friend sees right through him. "The craving's hit again?" he asks, eager for gossip. "Your little Cheng sister is already in college. Still not planning to confess?"
Liang Qichen pauses. He would like to confess, but first he has to find her.
Cheng Nuo gets along wonderfully with her college roommates, and they spend their weekends and holidays traveling all over the world. After returning from Korea, she spots Liang Qichen, whom she hasn't seen in ages, at the airport exit. Surprised and delighted, she asks, "What are you doing here?"
Liang Qichen has come to track her down, his unrequited love spilling over and his gaze turning sharp. When he hears her roommate ask, "Is this the older brother from your godmother's family?", his expression darkens instantly.
Cheng Nuo also freezes at that. That's right: from childhood onward, he has been the godbrother who unconditionally indulged all her sensitivity and spoiled whims.
But she has long since developed improper thoughts about him, making him the target she tries to win over in every unmentionable dream.
Cheng Nuo always thought she had only been vaguely infatuated with him for a while.
But later, Liang Qichen softly kisses her lips and tells her that through all the dawns and dusks of his long life, there are many things he has, but the only thing he wants is her.
★ A little scene from their secret dating days
At a family dinner, Liang Qichen peels a shrimp and reaches across the table to put it in Cheng Nuo's bowl. She looks up at him and pretends to be polite. "...Thank you, big brother."
His little sister, Liang Qiqi, sees him reply with a cool "Mm," then leans over to Cheng Nuo and whispers, "I heard my brother has a girlfriend. Do you think someone as pure and abstinent as him would actually chase a girl?"
Cheng Nuo, who was brought to tears and begged for mercy after last night's antics: "..."
...Pure? Abstinent?

What a pity Shen Yun 😭 😭 😭 😭 She is so good, I cry
Liu Ting is also quite sad 😏, meeting the male lead, otherwise he would be a perfect male lead, haha [crying with laughter]
What's the point of Ren Ran's role? You can't let such an irrelevant plot ruin your character just for the sake of abuse, right? There is no saying that the male and female protagonists cannot go through some ups and downs, because the protagonists also need to grow up. It's just that the appearance of Ren Ran deepened the misunderstanding between the male and female protagonists and caused them to be separated for so long. The male protagonist's behavior is actually a bit divorced from the previous characters. After having an intimate relationship with the heroine, he personally went to the hospital to take care of her, invited her to have dinner with her uncle, and even took her home to have dinner with her parents. This series of behaviors did not fit the character of a mature man with a sweetheart. I repeatedly confirmed that Ren Ran is just a subordinate of the male protagonist, and the male protagonist acted out of pity for Ren Ran's orphan status... To be honest, this kind of emotion is a bit redundant for a setting like Double C. He can sympathize and take care of her, but he should never deceive the female protagonist because of Ren... Such a plot cannot support the storyline and enrich the character. Instead, it makes me feel that the male protagonist is hypocritical and cowardly, and cannot see the charm of his youth. (Personal opinion, personal view)
It's a pity that no one has noticed such a good novel 😍 😍 😍
Can these two old wall lamps just disappear?
The heroine's mother takes time out to come back occasionally to see how her daughter is doing, and she doesn't need to be on call at her post.
Chapter 1, too many names appeared at once 😭
Can I ask why the extra is not sweet? Is it written that the male and female protagonists will naturally die of old age?
When will romance novels stop having children? I can't bear to see the heroine suffer a little, and she's still so young???
Oh my god, is there a mobile game called Swordsman Love?
