He Said I Wasn't Good Enough
You Hu He Zhuo Cha
1. Li Wenshui, does not live up to his name. He is like boiling water, scalding and turbulent, impossible to handle. Selfish, shallow, mercenary, vain, prone to bragging—it seems every undesirable trait in a person can be found in him. Everyone says he has nothing to offer but a pretty face. His mother left, his father remarried, and his stepmother calls him a jinx. Meanwhile, his half-brother is coddled by everyone, handed everything. Years of oppression in this wretched environment have twisted Li Wenshui. Unwilling to accept it, he decides to fight for himself. He takes the initiative to cozy up to Liang Jin, the wealthy young master his brother secretly admires, scheming his way into Liang Jin’s sight. Everything that should happen happens—but when he asks for a stable relationship, Liang Jin’s gaze says it all: *Li Wenshui, you’re not worthy.* 2. In Liang Jin’s eyes, the fawning, opportunistic Li Wenshui is utterly selfish and insatiable. Yet he puts on an act of innocence to please him—the kind of gold-digging admirer Liang Jin despises. Getting involved with Li Wenshui starts as a bored bet among friends. His spoiled companions wager: how long will Li Wenshui’s "affection" last if he gets nothing in return? Liang Jin accepts the bet indifferently. To everyone’s surprise, Li Wenshui endures far longer without demanding a single benefit. 3. Over time, Liang Jin discovers another side to Li Wenshui. A stubborn, tenacious Li Wenshui—one whose resilience is heartbreaking. For the first time, Liang Jin genuinely wants to protect someone. What began as a callous experiment—wealth testing the poor—ends with the wealthy Liang Jin falling first. But by then, Li Wenshui, battered and bruised, has already fled. When they meet again, Li Wenshui, faced with Liang Jin’s plea for love, drops the act: “200,000 per minute for romance talks.” —Li Wenshui is like a dandelion seed, drifting insignificantly wherever the wind takes him. Yet once he touches soil, he digs in with all his might, growing desperately.
