The year Xia Yuandie left the mountains, she had just turned seventeen.
Dragging an old, worn-out suitcase behind her, dressed in faded jeans and two unfashionable braided pigtails, she stepped into the home of the family that had sponsored her. It looked like something straight out of a princess's castle.
Wealth could dazzle anyone. But not Xia Yuandie.
All she wanted was to get into a good university, find a good job, bring her grandmother to live in the city, and repay the You family's kindness for supporting her.
Everything else had nothing to do with her.
There wasn't a princess living in that castle. But there was a young master named You Lie.
Handsome and aloof, he carried the pride that came from exceptional talent and a privileged upbringing. Wherever he went, he was the center of attention, the golden boy everyone admired. Every weekend, different pretty girls dressed like little princesses would gather beneath the huge camphor tree outside the villa, calling for him to come out and play.
But You Lie didn't like Xia Yuandie.
The first time they met, he stood at the very top of the long staircase, looking down at her with one hand in his pocket. His dark, tousled hair glowed golden in the sunlight.
"The third floor is my territory. Outsiders aren't allowed up here."
"Okay."
Just as she never stepped onto the staircase leading to the third floor, she never tried to step into You Lie's world either.
