[One-on-One Romance, Sweet Pampering]
A nineteen-year-old girl arrived at the Jiang family's home, one of Haicheng's most prominent families. Word was, she had saved Madam Jiang in the countryside years ago. After getting into Haicheng University, she was invited by Madam Jiang to stay with the family before the semester began, supposedly to get familiar with the city.
People said the girl was an orphan raised in the countryside, yet her bearing made her seem even more like a proper lady of a noble family than the real thing.
People said the girl was unsophisticated and didn't know how to behave in high society, yet she remained composed in front of influential figures from all walks of life, always wearing a poised smile that drew admiring looks.
People said Madam Jiang had brought the girl home to make her the Jiang family's eldest grandson's wife.
People said the girl came from humble origins and wasn't worthy of entering the Jiang family.
People said the girl fell in love with the eldest Jiang grandson at first sight, while he looked down on her.

Their first meeting.
She sat beside the lotus pond at the Jiang family mansion, reading a book.
She wore nothing more than a plain white T-shirt and black cloth trousers, yet he saw in her the grace of a refined lady.
Her ladylike bearing came from deep within her.
Their first meeting.
She dropped her book, and he called out to her.
Hearing him, she turned around.
In that moment, she suddenly understood what it meant to be "a gentleman as lovely as jade."
He was a noble gentleman, gentle and warm as jade; she was a graceful lady, reserved and dignified.
If someone asked her what the greatest thing she gained from coming to Haicheng was, she would answer without hesitation: meeting him.
If someone asked him what the greatest thing he gained from staying in Haicheng was, he would answer without hesitation: meeting her.
