Snatching a Girlfriend from a Thug

So what if Lin Yu doesn't like him? He's Tao Xingye!

Lin Yu never imagined that her reunion with Tao Xingye would be in such a setting—as a temporary hotel worker, she was squatting on the floor cleaning. She was contemplating how to snatch some of the flowers from the engagement party after it ended to resell them.

Suddenly, a voice that was intimately familiar came from behind her: "I didn't know you changed your name to Liu Xiaoyan."

Why so familiar? Because this voice had tormented her for four years. Even in the year he disappeared, he had said with an exceptionally cold and condescending tone, "Even if I hid the truth about Jiang Shuang's death, I still liked you. Didn't you also have me in your heart?"

Lin Yu replied, "...You're overthinking it. I've always been quite afraid of you. Staying by your side was out of fear that you'd continue to bully me."

Tao Xingye always considered himself Lin Yu's benefactor. At Tianya Junior High, Lin Yu, a transfer student, was ostracized everywhere. Wasn't it always he who secretly protected her?

Since he was her benefactor, Lin Yu should have treated him differently from others. Since he was her benefactor, how could Lin Yu like Jiang Shuang more?

Jiang Shuang was just a thug, inferior to him in family background, looks, and intelligence. How could Lin Yu fancy a thug?

He would never forget the scene in his second year of high school when he confidently confessed and was rejected. "Can you truly not let go of Jiang Shuang?"

Lin Yu replied, "I can't."

Young Master Tao was rejected for the first time in his life. In a fit of pique, he accepted his family's arrangement to study abroad in Switzerland. Four years passed, and he returned to China for his engagement party with Xu Meihan, only to encounter Lin Yu again.

She had cut her hair short, lost weight, become prettier, and was no longer willing to acknowledge him. What a joke, he was Tao Xingye! The person he couldn't win over four years ago, he would use money to keep by his side now.

The story began on a whim. Tao Xingye, intending to merely play around, started to harass Lin Yu. However, he found he could no longer let go.

Young Master Tao's bottom line kept dropping. After all, Jiang Shuang was dead. A dead first love, even if the person themselves returned, couldn't compete, let alone in Lin Yu's eyes, his protection of her in junior high was no different from bullying.

"I accept that Jiang Shuang has a place in your heart, but can you not try to make a little room for me too?" Just a little is fine, he'll expand his territory once he moves in!

Lin Yu: "..."

He didn't care anymore! Tao Xingye made up his mind: he's going to snatch a girlfriend from a thug!
