Tentatively, timidly, heartbrokenly, hysterically.

She had asked him again and again how long their relationship had a future.

Compared to a woman's emotional turmoil, tangled up in love and hate, the man remained cool and detached.

"I'm thirty this year, and I've just barely established my career. It shouldn't be long before I settle down. I won't keep you waiting for long. You'll still be young when we part, so don't worry."

"If you want, I'll send you an invitation," he promised. "I hope by then you'll be a successful dancer with a career of your own, attending with a partner who suits you."

He was nine years older than her. At the height of his success, she was still unknown. He became her teacher, helping her avoid many detours. She was a work of art he had created with his own hands.

Everything unfolded according to his plan. Later, she really did become an internationally renowned prima ballerina.

But when she showed up at his engagement party with a suitable partner, he lost control, eyes red as he trembled and begged her for a kiss.

His calloused fingertips squeezed her waist until it went weak, and his possessive kiss held a rare tenderness.

Memories of their passion came flooding back, but reason won out.

She pushed him away, avoided him, and told him to behave himself.

For the first time, his beautiful, composed eyes revealed vulnerability. "Chuchu, please. Let's start over."

"Jiang You, it's too late." Chu He wrenched his hand away. "You taught me that people who put their interests above everything else aren't worth wasting your feelings on."

Jiang You prided himself on never lowering his head, yet from the moment he first kissed Chu He, he willingly bowed to her.
