Two Powerful Families | Angsty Push and Pull | Rekindled Love
[Sensitive, solitary, falsely sunny writer x obsessive, lovesick CEO]
Everyone in Xiadu knows that Zhu Jingming was born a winner.
Born into an elite family and ruthless in business, he took control of the Zhu family at a young age. He has never had a weakness or shown mercy.
When the Song family fell apart, he decisively divorced Song Jiawen, leaving no room for reconciliation.
Everyone praised him for being clearheaded and knowing which way the wind was blowing.
But no one knew that from the moment they parted, his world had been reduced to an endless rainstorm.
Night after night, he chased her in his dreams hundreds and thousands of times, but couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes.
They met again at a banquet.
Song Jiawen wore an elegant dress and shone brilliantly.
Hearing him greet her, she slowly turned around, her gaze wary and her voice distant:
"Sir, do we know each other?"
At that moment, Zhu Jingming's heart sank into an abyss.
He had imagined her hatred and resentment, and even made peace with the thought that they might never meet again.
The one thing he never imagined was that she would forget.
Forget Zhu Jingming, and forget everything that had happened between them.
-
Song Jiawen was the one who asked for the divorce.
Their friends said privately that someone as proud as Zhu Jingming could never come back after being the one left behind.
Song Jiawen had returned for nothing, and was bound to be disappointed.
But they didn't understand. When Song Jiawen was involved, Zhu Jingming had no principles.
She was the weakness he could not let go of, the obsession that drove him mad.
That night, alcohol magnified his obsession.
In front of the entire company, he cornered her at the end of the corridor and said hoarsely:
"Song Jiawen, just try walking away today."
The room fell silent, the atmosphere frozen.
Everyone waited to see how this woman who didn't know her place would be completely blacklisted.
But the next moment, the lofty president of the Zhu family clutched her wrist, his eyes red. All his sharp edges gone, he begged her almost humbly:
"How long are you going to leave me this time? A year? Ten years? I can wait. Please, don't leave me again."

Shi Yao is drunk as usual. Xiao Mingyu supports her as they walk home together when he suddenly tells her it's his eighteenth birthday.
Leaning against him and struggling to stay upright, Shi Yao asks:
"So what do you want to do that only adults can do? Drink?"
Shi Yao shakes the beer can in her hand.
Xiao Mingyu takes a sip from the can in her hand, then kisses the person in front of him.
This is what he really wants to do.
-
Xiao Mingyu has always known he's a despicable person. He's coveted his older sister, Shi Yao, for years.
The thought of Shi Yao falling in love with someone else and marrying them makes him so jealous he feels like he's going mad.
But Shi Yao ran away, leaving behind a harsh declaration that she never wanted to see him again.
Only when they reunite years later does he understand the love Shi Yao never managed to put into words.
He keeps Shi Yao by his side, forcing her to face her feelings for him.
Shi Yao struggles desperately. "Are you crazy? I'm your older sister!"
"We aren't blood-related. What kind of sister does that make you?"
-
Shi Yao loves Xiao Mingyu.
When she's sober during the day, she restrains herself. At night, when she's drunk, she gives in.
Her father calls her disgusting and makes her leave Jiangcheng for years.
Years later, she unexpectedly runs into Xiao Mingyu in Huajing. She thinks he must still resent her,
only to hear him say, holding his ID card, that he's now old enough to legally marry.
The story begins to slip out of her control.
