A Dreamlike Wedding Day

 


Original Title: 佳期如梦
Author: Fei Wo Si Cun 匪我思存
Raw Link: Jiaqi Rumeng

Synopsis:

We often walk away, thinking it was only a relationship—until time proves it was a lifetime we let slip through our fingers.

What began as tender, youthful love soon turned stormy, torn apart by the weight of family backgrounds. Meng Heping, born into a military household, fought desperately to hold on to Jiaqi. Yet she turned away with finality. With her father gone and her family scattered, she had given everything to this love—her pride, her dignity—only to settle into a life of quiet mediocrity, while whispers around her refused to fade.

Then came Ruan Zhengdong. His arrival shattered the silence between them—a man both overbearing and elusive, cloaked in a noble air so unlike Meng Heping. Was he an avenger hiding in plain sight, or just another heartless playboy who toyed with the world?

In the bustling city, fate drove the three to collide on a narrow road. For all their titles—business elites, heirs of powerful families—when it comes to love, they are nothing more than mortals.
