The morning sun was already peeping through the window, casting a warm light across her quiet room, when Luo Xiaolei finally opened her eyes. She drowsily blinked a few times in an attempt to adjust to the soft illumination that was like an alarm forcing her awake.
When she rose, a book fell on the floor. She had fallen asleep last night trying to make a perfect plan to quickly make Yu Chen accept her proposal. In her previous life, Luo Xiaolei was too busy to even try falling in love. In her previous life, she had countless suitors but she simply rejected them at their first try. She didn’t even pay any attention to the details on how Yun Jinhan had pursued her. Her eyes and heart were focused on nothing but revenge.
Luo Xiaolei simply had no idea about how to get a man, much more how to woo him. In this past four years, she was still the same regarding the issue of romance. Her eyes were now focused on her dreams that she still didn’t give a damn about romance. Perhaps, one of the reasons why was the fact that Luo Xiaolei lost her trust in love. She didn’t know if what she felt for Yun Jinhan back then was really love but she trusted him deeply in her heart. He was a very nice person who doted on her, stood beside her and supported her without any reservation. Yet, he ended up being fake. No matter what she did, Luo Xiaolei couldn’t forget the night when that man she trusted the most, betrayed her. It was a nightmare that haunted her to this day. Because of him, she found it hard to trust. She couldn’t trust anyone but herself.
Ever since she returned to the past, Luo Xiaolei had become overly cautious. She made a pact with herself not to ever let someone like Yun Jinhan appear in her life again. In this life, she didn’t need or want any man. She would prove to the world that she could rise alone.
However, this dire situation she was facing right now was giving her a dilemma. She never thought she would end up begging a man to accept her proposal and that this man would be giving her a hard time.
Luo Xiaolei spent all night reading tips and suggestions to get some ideas. Even though she’d been enjoying reading romance books lately, she thought that resorting to professional advisors was the best thing she could do. After all, her target was not ordinary. That man was an enigma. She couldn’t read him at all, as hard as she tried. He was like a blank canvas, not giving any hints to his motives.
Even now, Luo Xiaolei felt that he wasn’t someone whom she could cross but she had no choice. She had to do this. After all, it seemed like Yu Chen might just be playing hard to get since he already knew she was forced into this. She also couldn’t help but think that Yu Chen might be bored and was just looking for some entertainment. Well, what other reason would there be when the man himself brazenly told her he rejected her just because of her method?
So she bought and read the most amazing and helpful number one best-selling book by an internationally renowned author last night and this morning, Luo Xiaolei stretched lazily as she bravely lifted her face.
"Mr. Yu, just you wait. I will give you the most beautiful method that you asked for. I will surely make you accept my proposal within these seven days!" she strongly said and she put down the book on the side table before she went straight to the bathroom.
As the bathroom’s door closed, the soft breeze coming from the window blew on the pages of the open book until it closed. The cover came into view and the words ’10 Steps of Wooing Your Man by Hinari Chen’ was written on it.
