Day After Day

1v1 romance, with a groveling pursuit and a happy ending

When Shi Yuchao entered the Pei household, she was prepared to live at someone else's mercy.

Pei Yiyu stood on the second floor, looking down at her.

Her eyes were dark as ink, her skin fair as jade. Cool and stunning, she was the most captivating person Shi Yuchao had ever seen.

Before long, however, Pei Yiyu gave her a faint smile.

Pei Yiyu became the first person in the Pei family to show her kindness.

From then on, Shi Yuchao stayed by Pei Yiyu's side.

In places no one noticed, she had let her gaze grow bold.

After the college entrance exams, Shi Yuchao wrote a love letter. Her discarded drafts nearly filled a drawer, but the final letter held nothing but a young girl's pure affection.

The night before she planned to confess, Pei Yiyu knocked on her door first.

She covered Shi Yuchao's eyes and forcibly pushed her into the room.

"You didn't think staying here would be that easy, did you?"

"You don't want to give anything in return, Chaocao?"

Her voice was cruel, with a hint of amusement.

Her lips, tinged with the taste of alcohol, were soft. Shi Yuchao should have been happy.

But tears came before any joy.

The love letter was torn to pieces, but Pei Yiyu never read a single word.

"Whoever you were going to give it to, you'd better get over them."

"It's filthy."

They were entangled for three years, until everyone around them began to realize something was wrong.

Then came the news that Pei Yiyu was getting engaged. She introduced everyone to her fiancee. When it was Shi Yuchao's turn, she only said:

"Just a distant relative."

Those words dispelled everyone's doubts.

They also extinguished the last spark of hope in Shi Yuchao's heart.

Her pride was shattered to the bone and tossed without mercy into a deep sea of despair.

Shi Yuchao cut off all contact with Pei Yiyu, but Pei Yiyu always found her. Each time, the punishment grew more severe.

That voice was stubborn and deranged: "You have always been mine."

Then, during a shipwreck, Shi Yuchao dragged Pei Yiyu down into the depths with her.

When they met again, Pei Yiyu acted gentle and gracious, having shed all her former arrogance.

She was just like the ideal partner Shi Yuchao had once described to her.

But Shi Yuchao only looked at her coldly, as if she were a stranger.

"Stay away from me, President Pei. You're filthy."
