The Sweet, Soft Girl Is a Master Flirt, and the Abstinent Tycoon Can't Stop Chasing Her

A restrained, powerful man from Beijing's elite circles × a straightforward lawyer with a secret crush

On a stormy night, Su Ruanruan wears the nightdress Shen Yuheng gave her and knocks on his door.

“I like you.”

With a cold expression, he pushes her out. “There are things you can't do just because you like someone.”

He uses their elders as an excuse and an arranged marriage as a shield.

She thinks he doesn't love her, until she discovers the secret he has kept buried in his heart.

He would rather drive himself mad than let her get mixed up in the Shen family's filth.

He would rather have her hate him than tell her the truth himself.

Until one day, Su Ruanruan stops playing along.

She promptly blocks him on every platform and moves to a new city without looking back.

The most refined and self-possessed man in the capital, the man who always stays rational and talks about his responsibilities, completely loses his mind!

He resigns from his position in the Shen family, risks a falling-out with his father, and speeds hundreds of kilometers to chase her to her new city.

The once-proud man kneels before her, his eyes bloodshot and his voice hoarse. “Ruanruan, don't leave me.”

Su Ruanruan takes half a step back, polite but distant. “There are things you can't do just because you like someone. Besides, you were the one who gave up on me first.”

He stays silent for a long time. “Then I'll choose you again. Starting today, I'll choose you every day, until you're willing to accept me.”

Later, Su Ruanruan asks him, “Why did you insist on pushing me away back then?”

Shen Yuheng holds her close, resting his chin on the crown of her head. His voice is soft. “Because I was afraid. Afraid that after you learned what my father had done, you wouldn't even want to look at me again.”

“And now?”

“Now?” He lowers his head and kisses her forehead. “Now there's only one thing I fear: that you'll never give me another chance.”

Childhood sweethearts + older man + a long, hard road to winning her back
