Clear-headed, gentle woman x controlling man who always gets his way
On a rainy street at night, Shen Xin drinks beer straight from the can, her skirt swaying.
A problem weighs on her mind.
She's getting married tomorrow. Her groom is second to none, whether in family background, appearance, or ability, and her family is very pleased with the match.
But today, the one she once loved from afar suddenly showed up, all the way from overseas.
No wonder people call him her unattainable first love: his impact is truly terrifying.
At first, he cradles her face and tries to win her back with a tender look:
"Shen Xin, don't get married."
When she stays silent, his tone turns cold as he threatens her:
"I'm here. Do you really think you can get married?"
She knows exactly how nasty he can be.
What am I supposed to do? Shen Xin frets as she gulps down her beer.
Just then, her impeccably dressed fiance approaches, holding a black umbrella.
At first, he asks with a pitiful look:
"Shen Xin, are we still getting married?"
When she stays silent, he grips the hand wearing her ring and grits his teeth:
"Now that you've put on the ring, don't even think about taking it off."
Years later, Shen Xin leans against the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the torrential rain wash over the glass.
Rubbing the wedding ring on her finger, she asks the man lying in bed, curious:
"What would you have done if I hadn't chosen you back then?"
The man lifts his eyes with an air of effortless nobility, his words casual but edged with danger:
"Are you telling me you had a choice, Shen Xin?"
