Falling for You, Against All Odds

[Rising Business Mogul and Stunning Painter]

[Groveling Ex, Both Are Each Other's First]

A hot post appeared on the campus forum at Wen University:

[The art department's belle, Jiang Qingsheng, and the finance department's heartthrob, Cen Huaiyu, are the most unlikely couple imaginable.]

Yet in secret, they had spent countless nights cheek to cheek.

Everyone said Cen Huaiyu was cold by nature. Jiang Qingsheng thought her passion could melt the iceberg.

Until she saw how attentively he cared for Zhao Mutong at the hospital. That self-deceiving one-woman show came to an end.

The fortune-telling Taoist, holding her unlucky lot, said, "Young lady, cut your losses in time. It's best to move on."

So she said, "The Taoist says this red agate bracelet brings me bad luck, and so does the person who gave it to me. Cen Huaiyu, let's break up."

Right in front of him, she snapped the bracelet's string. In a single night, everything fell apart.

At their carefully orchestrated reunion, he had steadily risen to become a business titan, a man above all others.

She was still as dazzling and sharp as ever, but now there was a distance about her that kept people away.

He attended her art exhibition and became its mysterious sponsor overnight.

At a dinner, someone with a keen eye spotted the red agate bracelet on his wrist and teased, "Mr. Cen, I didn't know you liked such delicate things."

He chuckled softly. "My ex-girlfriend left it behind. It reminds me of her."

The next day, an interview with Jiang Qingsheng came out. When a reporter asked what she thought of her ex, she replied, "A good ex should be as if they were dead."

Gossip outlets twisted the story, and it eventually became: Her ex is dead.

"Through mountains and rivers, among swaying flowers and trees, she brings spring to the world again and again."
