Yan Heyu once believed that no matter what happened, whether he needed it or not, as long as he didn’t intend to let go, no one else had the right to make decisions for him—including matters of the heart.... more>>

It wasn’t until Wen Di left that he finally understood the bitter taste of wanting to love someone but not knowing where to begin.

On the third Lunar New Year’s Eve after their breakup, fireworks filled the sky with dazzling colors.

When Yan Heyu dialed Wen Di’s number again, he felt a sudden surge of gratitude—grateful that he still had the chance to slowly work his way back into her heart. <<less

Shen Tang decided to completely cut ties with Jiang Chengyu. She packed up all her belongings from his villa and took them with her.... more>>

Jiang Chengyu: “What’s this act about now?”

Shen Tang blew out the smoke from between his fingers. The smoke drifted in the air as she smiled lightly. “It’s not an act. I just want to end our boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.”

Jiang Chengyu looked at her. “Then what kind of relationship do you want?”

While touching up her makeup in the mirror, Shen Tang replied, “A legal marriage. If one day you come begging me to marry you, I might consider it.”

Jiang Chengyu suddenly laughed. Beg her to marry him? Quite the attitude. He didn’t believe in marriage—he would never marry anyone.

________________________________________

When her friends heard Shen Tang had broken things off with Jiang Chengyu, they felt sorry for her. “It’s so hard to even know someone from Jiang Chengyu’s circle. And he treated you so well—how could you bear to let that go?”

Shen Tang didn’t respond. Precisely because it was so hard—like a mirage—she knew he would never give her marriage. So when she realized she had fallen for him and was sinking deeper, why tie herself up in a cocoon?

A year after their breakup, on her birthday, Shen Tang got a call from Jiang Chengyu.

Ever adaptable, Jiang Chengyu said, “Tangtang, marry me.”

Shen Tang replied, “Sure. Hold on. A lot of people are chasing after me these days. Let me check what number you are.” She deliberately paused for a few seconds. “Mr. Jiang, you're number 250. Remember your number—I'll notify you when it’s your turn.”

Fu Ji Chen discovers that the woman who has been living with him for months and bossing him around is none other than Yu Qing, the youngest daughter of his business rival, the Yu family.

Without hesitation, he personally orchestrates a dinner to expose her true identity.

Yu Qing never expected Fu Ji Chen to witness the entire catastrophic fallout as her cover is blown.

That night, she packs her belongings and moves out of his apartment.

Fu Ji Chen stares at her for a long time: “Apologize to me, and I’ll forgive you.”

Yu Qing smirks, “Shouldn’t it be you apologizing to me? Look what you did to my little disguise.”

Fu Ji Chen: “...”

He watches her play her manipulative games and personally drives her back to the Yu family home.

Six months later, Fu Ji Chen and Yu Qing get married.

Rumors spread in their social circle that Fu Ji Chen was forced into marriage due to an unexpected pregnancy. Friends come to persuade him, claiming Yu Qing deliberately concealed her identity to trap him with a child—a scheming woman not worth marrying.

Fu Ji Chen replies: “I was the one who apologized. I was the one who actively pursued her. And I’m the one who wanted a child to bind her to me.”

The first time Yu Qing met Fu Ji Chen was at a club tennis court, where she worked as a temporary coach. He tipped her generously.

Their next encounter was in the workplace—she as a small legal department employee, and he as the CEO.

After working late one night, a sudden downpour left her unable to hail a taxi. Fu Ji Chen offered her a ride. The road leading to her rental apartment was flooded, so they ended up at his place.

She decided to forget everything that happened that night.

Weeks later, they ran into each other at the company. Yu Qing greeted him casually: “President Fu.”

Fu Ji Chen looked at her, “And your name?”

“Yu Qing.”

Fu Ji Chen nodded.

Later, when Yu Qing leaned against him, she asked: “Did you really forget my name back then?”

Fu Ji Chen replied: “No, I didn’t forget. That night, you mumbled your name while half-asleep, and I thought you said ‘Xu Xing.’ I searched the entire company but couldn’t find anyone by that name.”

The female lead is a lawyer, aptly named, a stunningly beautiful woman who loves tennis.

It’s love at first sight, and deeper affection upon their second meeting.

plumlizi's Synopsis:... more>>

FL’S POV:

Among the upper-class circle of Jiang City, rumors were flying that Wei Lai, after being dumped by her ex-boyfriend and seeing her dreams of marrying into wealth shattered, was now dating a tycoon from Beijing.

One day, Wei Lai was hastily called to attend a dinner. As the last person to enter the private room, she was taken aback to find her ex there. Being a minor character, she wasn’t considered important enough for the host to introduce everyone at the table to her.

During the dinner, her ex gave her a toast. “Congrats, I heard you’ve found a new love.”

Curious onlookers asked her about the new boyfriend. “Which tycoon from Beijing?”

Wei Lai didn’t know of any tycoons from Beijing whatsoever, and she didn’t know how the rumor came to be, so she casually just mentioned the name of a well-known unmarried tycoon she had heard of, “Zhou Sujin.”

Everyone at the table: “…….”

All eyes turned to the man in the main seat.

Confused, Wei Lai also followed their gaze, locking eyes with the man who exuded a mysterious and charismatic aura. Leaning back in his chair casually, noble and indifferent, he looked at her with a cold yet intriguing gaze.

Wei Lai wondered if she was really that unlucky. Could this man be a friend of Zhou Sujin?

The host of the dinner came back to his senses. Seeing that Zhou Sujin didn’t deny it, he smiled and congratulated him, “No wonder you suddenly came to Jiang City, it turns out you came to see your girlfriend.”

Zhou Sujin smiled. He, himself, didn’t even know when he had gotten a girlfriend.

The first thing Zhou Sujin said to Wei Lai was, “Since it’s all out in the open now, come sit next to me.”

Wei Lai: “…”

ML’S POV:

On his 30th birthday, he found himself thinking of Wei Lai amid the cheers of his friends urging him to make a wish.

Cold-blooded and heartless, that was how others described him. Only Wei Lai had ever called him a good person. It was only when she was using him that her words were so sweet. For the first time in his life, he made a birthday wish for a woman, hoping she would have all her desires fulfilled.

One night, the group chat with his childhood friends erupted with multiple mentions @ him: Someone was pretending to be you and wrote a love letter to Wei Lai, but the handwriting doesn’t look like yours.

Handwriting came second; nobody believed that the usually aloof Second Young Master of the Zhou family would lower himself like this.

Zhou Sujin replied, “No one is pretending. I wrote it.”

It was a love letter that he wrote stroke by stroke for Wei Lai.

If she wanted to use his power, he was willing to let her borrow it for a lifetime. <<less

At the age of twenty, because of a blood type mismatch, her parents discovered that she was not their biological child. Overnight, Xu Zhiyi’s world was turned upside down. After a paternity test, it was confirmed that she was the daughter of a wealthy tycoon.... more>>

As a result, she had more interactions with Jiang Sixun. He went from being her boss to becoming an older brother figure from a prestigious family. During a business trip, she learned that he had an engagement with someone else.

Seeing her lost in thought, Jiang Sixun asked, “What are you thinking about?”

Xu Zhiyi replied, “I’m thinking about what gift would be appropriate for your wedding.”

Jiang Sixun smiled and said that the engagement wasn’t real.

He was obviously a stern and domineering person, but he was remarkably patient and gentle with her.

One weekend, Xu Zhiyi invited Jiang Sixun to dinner to ask him for a favor. After spending several hours dressing up, she arrived at the meeting in her finest attire. When they met, Jiang Sixun asked, “What kind of favor requires us to meet in person?”

After a moment of internal struggle, Xu Zhiyi said, “I have my eye on a man. His family background is extraordinary, his abilities are impressive, he’s good-looking, and he has a high vision... He’s particularly hard to pursue. I’d like you to help me make an introduction.”

Jiang Sixun looked at her and asked, “Who are you interested in? I’ll bring him to you.”

Xu Zhiyi met his gaze and said, “There’s no need to bring him. He’s right in front of me.”

He was both her boss and the person she had liked for many years.

Jiang Sixun remained silent for a long time because his friend Qi Zhengchen also liked Xu Zhiyi, and Qi Zhengchen’s confession had been rejected by her. Since then, he had never had any feelings for Xu Zhiyi beyond those of a subordinate.

Jiang Sixun, the rebellious son of the Jiang family, was used to being single and free and was adamant about not getting married. One day, he suddenly announced in the family group chat that he was going to get a marriage certificate with Xu Zhiyi.

Mother: “Are you out of your mind? Qi Zhengchen likes Zhiyi, and you know it!”

Jiang Sixun: “I like her too. What should I do? <<less
