[Ongoing]
Amidst glittering splendor, Shen Jianwei was set up by her family, leaving her soaked through in her formal gown and in a wretched state.
From the lofty terrace, Ling Che spotted her from afar and felt a pang of compassion.
"Bring her up to change into something dry."
That was Shen Jianwei's bleak, unspoken twentieth year.
In the capital, people said Ling Che was even more detached than the deities seated in Fanyin Temple. He never touched alcohol or tobacco, and he had no interest in beautiful women.
Only Shen Jianwei could get close to him.
The lights of the mortal world dazzled the eye. Ling Che's open indulgence and affection for her, and the fireworks he set off all night, made for the most romantic and unique birthday of Shen Jianwei's life.
At the height of their splendor, everyone in the capital could see their names written on the same sheet of paper.
The composed and restrained Mr. Ling gave her his special affection alone. Only in front of her did he indulge his desires, drawing Shen Jianwei, step by step, into a love she knew she shouldn't surrender to.
He made her believe she had truly won the heart of the man on the high terrace.
At twenty-eight, in a gloomy, muddy mire, Shen Jianwei was caught in the whirlpool of an arranged marriage. Ling Che once again pulled her out of it, then demanded in a low voice,
"Why can't you marry me?"
That was the only time the refined and dignified Mr. Ling lost control.
Later, Shen Jianwei opened the safe in the study of the Xishan Villa, the one Ling Che had forbidden her to touch. There was nothing inside except a medical report.
Ling Che said, "How could I let Weiwei see me like this?"
He had to remain the spotless Mr. Ling, seated high above the world, in her heart forever.

Are you about to break up?
Here I go again! When I was in the first year of high school, I would stay on time every day to read the author's The Story of Qi Gou and Sui Liu! Now I'm here again in my second year of high school (although I prefer brother-sister relationships)
Riding horses together, the little couple is sweet and delicious (baby, long time no see, do you still remember me? I have been so busy lately that I haven't commented 🎆)
