A Gentle Kiss Upon Her

[Irregular Updates, Wealthy Family, Secret Identities, Sweet Romance]

Lu Qingjiu and Jiang Qiyue are widely recognized in Beijing's elite circles as childhood sweethearts.

Everyone thinks they'll naturally end up together, including Lu Qingjiu himself.

Until, at the age of eleven, he takes a fatal blow meant for her in an accident.

Gravely injured, he goes abroad for secluded treatment. Then all contact is lost.

He is gone for seven years.

Seven years later, Lu Qingjiu returns to China.

The first thing he does is go to her school.

But just after getting out of the car, he is targeted by an assassin. A bullet grazes his ear and lodges in the wall.

In the crowd, he recognizes her at a glance.

He watches her for a long time. Though covered in wounds, he grits his teeth against the pain, kneeling on one knee with a hand braced on the ground.

Jiang Qiyue notices him too.

A man covered in wounds, his face pale.

She hesitates, but still walks over, deciding to save him.

Lu Qingjiu looks at her. After seven years, she is so close to him.

Jiang Qiyue frowns and studies him for a few seconds, then suddenly smiles.

"I can save you, sure, but you have to promise me one thing."

"What?"

"You'll marry me in return. How about it?"

Lu Qingjiu is stunned. "All right."

The "jiu" in their long-awaited reunion is also the "jiu" in Lu Qingjiu's name.

His carefree ways are for the whole world.

His tenderness is for Jiang Qiyue alone.
