(This story is entirely fictional. Please do not compare it to reality.)
After her family falls into ruin, the Jin family is hunted by enemies, and Jin Xuechi, still a student, tumbles from the clouds into the mud. Just when she is at her lowest and most desperate, a man eleven years her senior reaches out to her.
His name is Xue Lianshan. A wealthy businessman from Shanghai, he is elegant, gentle, considerate, and generous. He always has a girlfriend, but though he is a womanizer, he never gives his heart away. He has no intention of marrying.
Jin Xuechi loves him, but knows that a relationship with him will go nowhere.
After much push and pull, war breaks out, and fate binds them together, forcing them to weather the crisis side by side. From Shanghai to Hong Kong, then San Francisco and New York... Xue Lianshan gradually loses his way. A man who once put himself first, he pays a terrible price for her. Unwilling to keep making the same mistake, he abandons his old way of life and enters a stable, long-term relationship with her, marrying and starting a family. Under his guidance and protection, Jin Xuechi completes her studies and gradually matures, but she has her own principles and plans for her life, and refuses to go that far with him. They stand at the edge of the whirlpool, looking at each other, but neither falls in.
To draw close to you is to draw close to pain; to keep away from you is to keep away from happiness.
As a child, she listened to sermons in a temple. Outside, the relentless rain disturbed her spirit, and she never once heard a whole sermon. Afterward, she moved far from home, and the older she grew, the more lost she became. She still wants to hear the true scriptures clearly and learn the road to happiness. But by the time she can hear them, someone else is kneeling inside the temple. She has become the sound of rain.
TIPS: 1. Neither lead is a virgin. The hero dates someone else midway through the story, and the heroine also dates someone else and gets married. There are plenty of other shocking plot points. If any of these are dealbreakers for you, please don't read. Hope you enjoy!
2. HE. The story opens with the heroine looking back on her life at its end.
3. After the story goes premium, updates will be daily. For now, I may adjust chapter lengths to meet ranking requirements. Thanks for understanding. If you'd like to follow updates, please add the story to your collection!
Theme: Work hard at your studies.
The writing is very good. I have ordered all of the previous book "The Actor". It is very good. I couldn't accept the character of the male protagonist at first, but I thought that the writing must be very good, so I read it without realizing it.
I really like the author's words. A literary person is like this.
Not be is better than be
Is it time to write the copy now?
I cried to death. I really want a sequel... I really cried to death about the love between these two people qwq
I really, really like this story.
Madam, you write so well! When I saw the last part, I was moved to tears from the moment the ticket was torn into pieces. I could feel the depth of love between the characters and the pain of personal growth of the characters. Every character was lifelike. My wife's writing power was so strong. I personally feel that this should have started with ten thousand chapters! Madam, you have to keep writing. I may not have many collections because of the lack of exposure. Your writing is really touching. 🙏 I really want to read the modern novels of Lao Xue and Xiao Jin. Let them be more happy and less bitter in modern novels. 💪
How come there is such good writing! What a nice view
What a pure cat slave hahaha 🤩
Ahhhhhhh I can't stand it anymore 😭 😭 😭 Is this still possible?
