A Scorching Kiss

[Marriage-Free Idealist x Top-Tier Player]

[Two Devoted Leads, 1v1, Both Pursue Each Other. A Beginner Takes on an Expert]

Male lead's perspective: The pursuit was a success.

Female lead's perspective: The pursuit was a success, too.

Twenty-six-year-old Song Yu has been single her whole life. After seeing how fragile and dull love can be in her parents' generation, she's convinced that men can't be trusted or relied on.

Then one "Want to meet up?" sets off a ridiculous affair.

Marriage-free idealist Song Yu meets top-tier player Lu Qi.

From online to offline, he's gentle but measured, relaxed and in control. Simply put, he's not interested in her.

Song Yu thinks he's decent, and that's all.

Until they run into each other again on the dating scene. She has an agenda, but unexpectedly hits a wall.

The man is like a riddle, and his twists catch her completely off guard.

He leaves her on read, then gets drunk and insists on seeing her.

Then one "Dr. Song, can I kiss you?" gives her her first taste of a man's aggressiveness.

He pressures her into a kiss, a relationship, a marriage.

He leaves her nowhere to retreat.

Then everything falls apart.

The odds of one in ten thousand are too low. Song Yu is determined to drive him completely out of her world.

But on a sunny day, half a month after cutting off contact, she sees him standing on a street corner, as dejected as a stray puppy.

It takes exactly one year and one month to win over a marriage-free idealist.

It takes just three "I don't agree"s to win over a playboy.

On the day they get engaged, Lu Qi comes clean. "Actually, when you count it all up, I've been waiting for you for eight years."

Song Yu says, "Oh."

She doesn't tell him that she knew his secret all along.
