[A bankrupt heiress determined to restore her family fortunes x a wealthy, brilliant, and tragic psychology PhD]
"In the darkest years of our lives, we had only each other."
1-
Eric Cheng, Cheng Youyang, the most popular teaching assistant at E University.
Rumor has it he lives in the penthouse of Edinburgh's most famous luxury apartment building, graduated top of his class in Oxford's psychology department, and explains his subject so clearly that nobody leaves his tutorials confused.
Everyone says he's handsome and has a wonderful personality.
He Sang believed them.
That year, her family hit a financial crisis. They cut off her funding halfway through her studies abroad, and there was no one in all of Scotland more helpless than she was.
She spent her days sprawled on her bed like a stagnant pool, weeping her eyes out.
Then, by a twist of fate, she ended up working at his house to save up for tuition.

He Sang's job was to handle the transport, storage, and display of the artworks left behind by Cheng Youyang's mother.
Cheng Youyang glanced at the email she had written to customs, smiled faintly, and clapped softly. "Very well written, but I'd advise you to delete it and ask ChatGPT to rewrite it for you."
The raised brow and mocking tone pierced He Sang's heart. Her already exhausted heart gave one painful spasm after another.
Once she'd saved enough for tuition, she was going to stop being nice to him!
But when she was at the end of her rope, in tears, and ready to use her tuition money to help support her family, Cheng Youyang gave her a bank card.
There was ten thousand pounds in it.
He crouched down and held her wrist, looking up at her as she cried with her head bowed.
He was still recovering from an illness, and his voice was hoarse:
"Don't use your tuition money for anything else."
"If you need more, ask me."

When He Sang ran into Cheng Youyang at school, she would keep her eyes down and quickly slip away.
When Cheng Youyang saw He Sang at school, he would greet her, then say they weren't close.
"Isn't He Sang studying art history? Why is she at every one of Eric's tutorials?"
"Could she have a crush on Eric? He doesn't even pay attention to her."
He Sang covered her ears in despair, unwilling to listen any longer.
Please, ask the people involved before gossiping about them.
The truth was that by day, they were strangers who went their separate ways, but at night, they went home to the same place...
Night fell, and the lights glowed dimly.
Shimmering reflections danced in the cramped space, outlining his lean, finely toned physique.
"You said I wasn't training properly?" Cheng Youyang pressed his thin lips together, his gaze intense.
He Sang pinched the collar of his bathrobe closed, hiding the view. "Mr. Cheng, watch yourself. This is workplace sexual harassment."

In 2025, He Sang returned to Britain and Edinburgh as the founder of a fashion brand.
Everyone in Edinburgh who knew her thought of her as Cheng Youyang's one and only ex-girlfriend, the one he hated most, the heartless woman who had abandoned him.
On her first night back in Edinburgh, He Sang knocked on the familiar door.
Cheng Youyang opened it. Before the shock could register on his familiar, handsome face, her words filled up all his brain space:
"Dr. Cheng, a pipe burst at my place. Can I stay here for a while?"

Edinburgh sunrise time It's hard for me to believe that I can fall in love with a city because of a novel, but after reading this novel, I longed for this romantic city in Western Europe—Edinburgh. I believe that somewhere far away, there will be He Sang and Cheng Youyang who have experienced encounter-separation-reunion. I actually don't remember many English terms in the book, but I will think of Arthur's Seat on the high cliff, the beach with the passionate love between two people, the highlands where sadness and memories coexist, and the train to London, etc. I actually read this book for a year. What's more coincidental is that on September 4, 2025, I posted the story of this novel on my social account. Unexpectedly, on September 4, 2026, I saw the ending of this novel. In fact, I haven't watched it for a long time. I have been waiting for many updates to watch it all at once. The delicate writing and romantic writing style not only made me like this book, but I am also looking forward to the author's next work. I think the characters are so real, so real that I wonder if the author has really experienced this personally. Maybe this is a true story that really happened in Edinburgh. Let's talk about He Sang and Cheng Youyang. What attracts me most about this book is its romance and delicacy. What's most attractive are the tough and independent individuals. Our He Sang is a girl who is both strong and soft. She will find a way on her own when faced with difficulties. Even if Cheng Youyang can help her, she believes in her ability. I think she does a good job. She is emotionally decisive, clear-cut and brave. They are like living people. They have gone through the lowest point of each other's lives together, and made eternal decisions in the short time they met. The author's writing is so delicate, so detailed that every gust of wind is real. I like every well-placed description. I guess the author is also a romantic. These words are not very lively and impetuous, but they are gentle and delicate, which is in line with the literary style that the city of Edinburgh should have. The final feeling is that the core is too powerful. Everyone has different opinions on many different events, and ideas collide and merge. In fact, when I watched it, I also thought about what I would think and do if it were me. I hope the author can write better and better. It is really not easy to write such pure words.
There is a novel that I have been following for a long time. I liked it very much but stopped because I could not bear the pain of updating it. After finishing it, I came back to catch up and enjoy it (≧∇≦) I think the writing style of this article is quite delicate and does not pile up a lot of flashy words. Their story has come to an end for now, but it still leaves me with an "unreal" feeling, as if Cheng Youyang really lives on the top floor of Point East, Edinburgh. I think the author's Cheng Youyang has a very charming personality. Although he is trapped in a whirlpool of pain and fighting emotional problems, he retains the ability and courage to love others. When I read the article, I am always surprised by his actions and words. He Sang is also a very energetic woman who provides understanding, support and companionship to her partners as much as possible. Communicating and getting along with a partner who suffers from emotional illness is a test to a certain extent. I have experienced this personally, and I think He Sang has done a good job in many cases. Precisely because their two characters are very three-dimensional and not like monotonous beautiful, strong and miserable paper figures, it gave me the illusion that they really exist in a parallel world. I really hope to continue making extras! I hope that on the day when they finally move towards each other firmly, they will be happy and happy! 🎉💪
It is still my favorite in Jinjiang in the past six months😌
In the end, I almost cried when I saw it 😭 The young couple should talk about reconciliation as soon as possible 😣
Yes, Cheng Youyang will definitely have his own world. The two of them will be fine. They will definitely do it. They will not be the shadow of anyone else. Cheng Youyang is Cheng Youyang, and He Sang is He Sang. Please go on together.
I'm lucky to come across a good novel, and even luckier to come across a completed and good-looking novel, it's good to read!
Finished spreading flowers! The author is great!
Finished spreading flowers🎉! Looking forward to the sequel and the next one
When will the author finish? 😣
OMG it's so fast, happy May Day, it's been so long since I started catching up, and it's finally coming to an end
