Time Is the Best Remedy: The Ling Family's Eldest Daughter Quits

share time: 2025-12-31 06:08:57

Ling Wantang was the "perfect eldest daughter" of Ling Group—every step of her life was planned by her parents: studying business, joining the company, marrying a man of equal status. Until the night before her engagement party, she caught her fiancé cheating, only to be told by her parents to "endure it" for "family interests." She snapped, left a note saying "I quit," and fled to the small town where her grandmother once lived. There, she opened a café called "Time Remedy" and met Gu Shiyuan, a warm guy who makes handmade cakes, plus regulars with hidden stories: an elderly man buying osmanthus cake daily (secretly her grandma's old friend), a programmer ordering American coffee (recovering from workplace PUA). While healing others with coffee and listening, Ling slowly unties her own heart—turns out, the "imperfection" she feared is life's most real face. But just as she finds her rhythm, the Ling family's men arrive. Will she return to the "perfect cage, or stay in this warm world and brew her own "remedy" with time?
