    Description:

    The night Lin Ji returned to the country was also the birthday banquet of Jiang Siyi’s partner in their marriage alliance, Song Ti.

    Jiang Siyi carefully selected a large bouquet of Cinnabar Bowl camellias1 to attend the banquet, only to be neglected by Song Ti.

    Upon seeing Lin Ji’s car, Song Ti immediately stood up and left. The Cinnabar Bowl camellias were knocked to the ground, leaving a mess of ruined blossoms.

    Song Ti excitedly opened the car door for Lin Ji, chasing after her while calling out, “Cousin.”

    Yet Lin Ji remained on her phone the entire time, not sparing a glance for anyone else. She walked straight to Jiang Siyi, bending down to pick up the flowers for her.

    Amidst the heavy snow, Lin Ji brought the shivering Jiang Siyi into her car. As she dried Jiang Siyi’s hair with her own cashmere shawl, she said, “She doesn’t know how to cherish you. Why not switch to a better partner for this arrangement?”

    Jiang Siyi: “Who?”

    Lin Ji: “Me.”

    Jiang Siyi took the initiative to call off the engagement. Song Ti remained arrogant: “One final warning. Once the engagement is off, things won’t be easy for you at home.”

    Jiang Siyi: “That has nothing to do with you anymore.”


    Lin Ji was a well-known cold beauty in their social circle, with a reputation for being ruthless. Jiang Siyi had been afraid of her since childhood.

    Bestie: “It feels like there’s nothing Lin Ji-jiejie can’t do.”

    Jiang Siyi, daringly bold: “Not necessarily. Someone that cold definitely doesn’t know how to fall in love.”

    A few days later, when Jiang Siyi woke up in Lin Ji’s bed with weak legs, she realized she didn’t even understand one-ten-thousandth of Lin Ji.

    Jiang Siyi: “I’ve known Lin Ji for over ten years, and I never knew she was so good at kissing.”

    Bestie: “Ahโ€ฆ Then how do you know now?”

    Unbeknownst to them, Song Ti was sitting in the corner of the restaurant.

    Song Ti: ??

    Jiang Siyi had always thought Lin Ji chose her for this marriage alliance because she wanted an obedient, low-maintenance wife.

    Until she discovered a letter at Lin Ji’s house.

    A letter she had written when she was a child.
