Mending Our Broken World

The Mission Was Almost Complete, Yet I Ran Straight Into My Childhood Sweetheart After Eight Years of Disappearance.

Eight years ago, I once tricked my innocent, hopelessly naive childhood sweetheart into going to a hotel with me. Back then, he was pushed so far that his eyes welled with tears, yet he still gritted his teeth and said,

“Just wait a few more years… We’re still young. Our parents won’t allow us to do that…”

Not only did I refuse to listen, I completely disregarded his protests and crossed a line I shouldn’t have.

And now, that adorable puppy from back then had grown into a sharp-edged man. In front of a crowd, he scooped me up, shoved me roughly into a car, pressed a finger against my chest, and growled,

“You heartless woman. You got what you wanted and ran. What exactly am I to you?”

The Lin Xi standing before me now was like a blooming poppy—beautiful enough to be intoxicating, yet deadly enough to be dangerous.

Unfortunately for me, he was also a massive obstacle standing directly in the way of my mission.
