[Both Leads Are Virgins & Mutual Secret Crushes & Long-Planned Romance + From Campus to the Wedding Aisle + A Safe Bet]
A self-aware male lead who's been in love for years ✖️ a slow-to-realize female lead who goes from falling for him to surrendering completely
There's a little angst, but the story is sweet overall.
They met when they were young. Qi Yun gave Jiang Wang a box of vanilla ice cream.
“You have to believe good luck exists.” They saw a rainbow, and he believed her.
“Okay.”
That summer tasted of vanilla.
They met again because of a 2B pencil.
The girl's uncontrollable feelings began with a pencil hidden in her pencil case, then grew beyond control. They first met over a pencil, and when they met again, she was the one in his heart.
Jiang Wang keeps his feelings hidden as he slowly makes his way toward Qi Yun, bringing warmth into her life.
“Trust me, Qi Yun.” His voice rings with conviction.
Little by little, Qi Yun falls for Jiang Wang's tenderness.
One day, they finally confess their feelings to each other. “I've liked you for a long time.” Then they smile at each other.
After marriage
“Why did you like me back then? I'm not outstanding or especially talented,” Qi Yun asks.
“Roses bloom across the mountains, but to me, you're the only one who's special. You don't have to come to me. I'll take every step toward you,” Jiang Wang says, looking at Qi Yun with affection.
A story about mutual secret crushes can't have a tragic ending. They have to end up together.
“Among all the souls in this world, this lifetime is spent in Wang's company.”
