Blurb One
The moment he returned, the young master of the Jiang family pursued the head of the Fu family by any means necessary. Everyone assumed he had an ulterior motive and wanted to use the Fu family's influence to overshadow the other Jiang heir.
"I'm pursuing Brother Fu. What does that have to do with you? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were jealous."
Jiang Zhihe wore a faintly amused smile as he leaned close to his lips and used his cigarette to light his own.
He tilted his head, lamplight shimmering in his eyes. But their lips barely touched before he drew back. He took the cigarette away and held it between his fingers, resting his hand on the armrest. He didn't smoke it, just let it smolder quietly.
Blurb Two
For the first eighteen years of his life, Jiang Zhihe lived an unremarkable existence. If there was anything unusual about it, it was that he chose a university thousands of miles away, in the opposite direction from the place where he had grown up, all to search for someone.
Then, in a twist straight out of a melodrama, the summer after he submitted his college applications, he was reclaimed by the Jiang family.
The person who had taken his place for eighteen years had clearly been well protected. The Jiang family refused to make his identity public, and even the childhood friend from another prestigious family stood by the impostor, afraid Jiang Zhihe might do something to his old friend.
Leaning beside the stair railing, Jiang Zhihe smiled at the two people below. "I don't care who ends up with the Jiang family. After all, isn't it a family tradition to take in outsiders and raise them?"
Downstairs, Jiang Jixiao stood behind a folding screen and tapped the ash from his cigarette. His new nephew certainly had a sharp tongue. Insulting the fake heir was one thing, but he had to drag him into it too.
Life could get even more melodramatic. Jiang Zhihe thought as he came face-to-face with the fake heir's childhood friend from another prestigious family in the same dorm room.
He'd run into so many coincidences, yet he still couldn't find the person he was looking for.
One ordinary day, after finishing his tutoring job with a high school student, Jiang Zhihe walked out of the boy's study and unexpectedly met a pair of familiar eyes.
His heart raced. He wanted to say something, but the keepsake he'd given the man as a child was gone from his wrist. In its place was a mechanical watch glowing blue.
Fu Yicheng couldn't understand why this young man had become so attached to him after just one meeting. He looked young and handsome, far more lively than Fu Yicheng, and was well liked by everyone.
But Fu Yicheng had already lost his heart. He didn't dare respond, and couldn't respond.
He rejected Jiang Zhihe at every turn, yet secretly kept track of him whenever no one was around.
When he unexpectedly walked in on someone confessing to Jiang, he seemed to take root on the spot, unable to leave.
When he heard that the Jiang and He families were planning a marriage alliance, he got into a car accident that very night.
Later, all he could do was give a bitter laugh. After all, he was the one who couldn't recognize Jiang Zhihe.
But though Jiang Zhihe seemed cold, he was willing to hold Fu Yicheng's icy hand.
