The Moon Curves Gently, May You Find Peace Today

[Unrequited Love + Healing Each Other + Reunion + Both Devoted] A note: the work is called Twelve, but for certain reasons, the title wasn't changed.

Ran Xinxu stood by the wishing well with a bouquet in her hands, beautiful as something from a fairy tale. Passersby couldn't help taking a second look at her.

She'd been so full of anticipation, but she waited from day until night. Finally, she called him. Her voice was cautious, with a hint of reproach.

“Why haven't you come yet?”

“I'm messing with you. You didn't figure that out?” Xu Mucheng hung up and blocked her immediately.

He was already mired in the mud. How could he dare pull her into it with him?

Later, she came to terms with it. If that was how things were, then she'd make the first move.

In the height of summer, he cornered her on a crowded street. “What does Twelve mean? The twelfth one? Hmm?”

He pressed closer with every step. She laughed, no longer quite herself.

“Not telling me? Fine! Let's go somewhere else and try a different position while you tell me…”

“Wait, wait, I'll tell you.”

She pleaded for mercy, but he wouldn't budge and swept her into his arms.

“Too late.”

[Friend, lover, beloved, family. Twelve means you.]

Sweet and angsty, with a happy ending.
