Harbor Sweetness

Qing Qichu was beautiful and came from a distinguished family.

Many of the customers who came and went through her shop felt comfortable opening up to her.

She had friends who had always been by her side.

And a fiancé she could proudly introduce.

Until her best friend turned against her and her fiancé had an emotional affair.

Then Qing Qichu met a handsome man who claimed he wanted to be her good friend.

A man handsome enough to make a living as an escort.

Qing Qichu loved enjoying good food, but even the finest ingredients were wasted in her hands.

If she wanted a good meal, she had to go out and find one.

If nothing unexpected happened, she would carry on as usual and make a living by hiring a chef in the future.

But the unexpected came at just the right time.

The fiancé she'd planned her life around had an accident, and needed to be replaced.

Great.

She could find someone even better.

Someone who could cook, was handsome, doted on her, and supported her opening a nail salon.

"Men like that usually aren't available on the market."

"Is that so?"

No, it wasn't.

"I think I've found one myself."

"No, he came to me on his own."

Lu Shang had always believed that "love at first sight" was the biggest lie of all, something men invented to cover up their lust at first sight.

Until he met Qing Qichu.

A person meets many people in their life, but only a rare few do they truly get to know.

He and she crossed paths on countless mornings, then went their separate ways.

He wanted to approach her, but couldn't. He had morals, even if they were rather flimsy.

Fortunately, he didn't need to break up a relationship. The obstacle in his way had fallen apart on its own.

His chance had arrived.

And what he did best was seize the opportunity.

He would turn love at first sight into a romance that grew over time, forged through shared meals.
