The Longest Day

【Complete】 1. Lin Xiguang is famous among Hong Kong’s wealthy elite for her eye-catching beauty and flamboyant style. She lives a life of luxury and indulgence, every inch the spoiled heiress, and has a face that practically invites rumors of countless lovers. The Harbor Thorn Daily, Hong Kong’s top newspaper, even has a special column devoted to her love life. In reality, she’s never been in a relationship. Chu Tianshu, heir to the most prestigious family in the country, is a paragon of grace and refinement, a noble and elegant young man praised as a heaven-sent prodigy by all and sundry. But those in the know whisper that he wields immense power from his lofty position. Ruthless and decisive, he’s cold and passionless, with none of a gentleman’s virtues. Anyone who crosses him comes to a bad end. Two people from completely different worlds became entangled after an accident. Lin Xiguang found herself linked to Chu Tianshu, the most celebrated man in Jiangnan. From then on, rumors of an affair between them circulated among the upper crust. People eagerly traded all sorts of spicy stories, right down to the exact locations, number of hours, and number of encounters. It wasn’t until later that Chu Tianshu, far removed from the world’s commotion, finally heard about his own supposed torrid affair. At a private banquet, amid the lively crowd, Lin Xiguang was walking down the steps when she tripped on her hem and fell against a tall man. She was about to step back when his arm circled her waist, its astonishing strength and possessive control leaving her unable to escape. Lin Xiguang looked up in surprise and met a pair of exceptionally pale eyes. They brought to mind distant, towering mountains. His gaze fixed on her, calm and cold. “Lin Xiguang, I’ve caught you.” The silver cufflink bearing the character Chu on his wrist was a symbol of his power and revealed his identity. He was Chu Tianshu. 2. Lin Xiguang never expected Chu Tianshu, the most powerful decision-maker in the Chu family, to come to her door in person and ask to marry her. Everyone knew she was a perfectionist who took pride in her impeccable taste. When she reached marriageable age, she planned to choose a fiancé from among the many eligible heirs of wealthy families. But after three whole months, she still hadn’t found anyone who fully matched her taste. Word spread through the social circle about her impossibly demanding standards. Plenty of people were waiting to see her make a fool of herself. In a dimly lit room, Lin Xiguang studied the man sitting across from her. He was dressed in a suit, the line of his prominent Adam’s apple strikingly clear, his beauty sharp and commanding. He inspired a desire to conquer him, yet seemed impossible to handle. But Chu Tianshu spoke with unhurried ease. “I meet all your standards, and I’ll be faithful to you after we marry.” “I have just one condition.” Lin Xiguang asked, “What is it?” Her reflection shone in Chu Tianshu’s eyes. “I want you to belong to me alone.” 「Once we make a vow, no mountain can stand in our way」 3. A little scene: Rumors that Lin Xiguang had tarnished Chu Tianshu’s reputation reached the Chu family in Jiangnan. People who loved a bit of gossip speculated back and forth, and all agreed that given the Chu family’s usual standards, Lin Xiguang would surely be held accountable.
