Summary:
Cheng Liu successfully found a boyfriend half a year ago, but unfortunately she was too busy and work kept her running around. Apart from giving him some red envelopes, she had no time to accompany her boyfriend, which caused her boyfriend to complain on the phone that their relationship has faded.
Cheng Liu: It seems that the feelings are not so strong, right?
However, in order to cultivate this relationship (and maintain the status of not being a single dog), Cheng Liu still decided to come back early from a business trip and hinted in WeChat when she would come back, thinking that her boyfriend would understand.
On the day the plane landed, Cheng Liu scanned around the arrivals area, and sure enough, she saw a tall, handsome man in the crowd.
That’s right, that must be her boyfriend! It’s just that she hasn’t seen him for such a long time, and now he seems to somehow look better? Standing in the crowd, he looks so good-looking that he seems to shine!
Cheng Liu stepped forward and took the bouquet of lily-of-the-valley from his hand: “I’m back.”
…
A few days later, Cheng Liu took her boyfriend to go shopping, and they ran into a loving couple. The guy panicked when he saw her, and immediately let go of the woman’s hand.
But then the guy started accusing her: “It turns out that you haven’t shown up for half a year because you’re cheating on me!
Cheng Liu: “???”
Review:
It's a calm romance story. No drama, almost no conflict. I enjoyed reading it but most likely won't reread it.
MC is a workaholic. She has technology company which is big and the leading company in technology. Her family is ordinary even poor at first, she build her own company from scratch.
She has a boyfriend who is a model. She met him 6 months ago and she fell in love at first sight. She then directly ask to date. The man only like MC money and connection so he agreed. MC then never meet him again and seldom interact with him. She even forgot his name. MC came back from abroad or out of city. She asked her boyfriend to pick her up. But the boyfriend got angry and didn't say anything. MC saw ML outside. She thought ML is her boyfriend.
ML is waiting for her aunt's adopted daughter who is an actress. ML was trapped by the actress. The actress brought media people so they can see her and ML together.
Before the actress reach ML, MC directly lead ML away since she thought he is her boyfriend. ML is shocked. Then in the car, he saw his father's number on MC phone. ML thought MC is a bodyguard hired for him. Both of them keep making up story on their brain and misunderstood for 6 days.
MC tried to get close to ML when she found out she admitted wrong person. ML slowly got attracted to MC. But he knows he is paranoid. He is afraid to love MC. His mother died maybe suicide, until the end there's no clarification. It just said ML and his dad didn't have good relationship. ML is raised by his aunt, the actress adopted mother and also ML mother sister. It is said the mother family has possessive personality, including ML. That's why the aunt refuse to fall in love and choose alone. She is dying now and afraid if ML will also become like his mother.
Not clear how ML mother died. And why ML got traumatic with height.
MC keep chasing ML. She consult with her ex since he is a pro when changing girlfriend. The ex open a love consultation since MC succeed with her love. The funny thing is the actress who love ML, and MC assistant who love MC tried to consult with him.
Until the end there's no extreme part from ML. Sure he is easily jealous and sometime got triggered with his trauma but that's it.
