[One-on-one romance, angst and devotion] “I don't remember!” A young woman knelt on the living room carpet. The man kneeling beside her on one knee wore an amused expression. He gripped the woman's delicate chin tightly, forcing her to look him in the eye. “You don't remember?” His gaze suddenly turned vicious! He wanted to strangle this arrogant woman right then and there. He even wanted to throw her onto the bed and humiliate and punish her until she never dared think of leaving him again! The man's threatening, cajoling words struck her heart one by one. “My dear Manman... You were the one who schemed to marry me, and you're also the one who ran away with all your might. Did you think I couldn't catch you just because you'd found a new protector? You know what I'm capable of. If you take what's mine, I'll have to kill him.” ✔ The heroine is clever, sweet and considerate at heart, skilled at reading people, and dearly loved by her own mother! ✔ The hero is ruthless and arrogant.
