Falling

Qi Qingmang was a light in Xu Yuan's life. Xu Yuan followed her from childhood, hoping to win Qi Qingmang's affection.

But the goddess did not love the people of this world, and the wheels of fate turned, crushing Xu Yuan's hopes when she was nineteen.

The once-wealthy young lady became a stray with debts piling up.

She was dragged into a mire, then rescued by Qi Qingmang with a contract.

From then on, she could only put away her romantic feelings for Qi Qingmang and repay her kindness properly.

Eventually, she finally climbed back to the top and wanted to confess her feelings to Qi Qingmang.

Then she overheard Qi Qingmang speaking to someone else.

“I don't love Xu Yuan.”

Those five simple words sent Xu Yuan plunging into the abyss once more.

When the contract expired, she stood outside the civil affairs bureau, but Qi Qingmang never came to file for divorce with her.

After drinking herself unconscious at a bar, she woke up to find herself in Qi Qingmang's home.

Qi Qingmang looked at her with a cold, gloomy expression.

“I should hide you away.”

Xu Yuan saw that the walls were covered with pictures of her, from childhood to adulthood...

A mutual crush, with angst and sweetness.
