My dark... past... isn't worth reading. Don't read it.
Clear-headed, charming legal beauty VS rich, handsome, willful, eccentric young master
Super-strong cute girl VS arrogant, childish, hopelessly romance-obsessed little princess
The story begins with Shu Xingbei stirring Ye Ziyuan's heart and heroically saving the beauty.
He covers his mouth, stifling a laugh. "I think I'm the heroine in King Kong."
"Wham!" Shu Xingbei's face turns as black as Judge Bao's. "From the way you put it, am I the gorilla?"
"The historian Shi praised it thus: 'Gold is tempered to make it strong, and so it is called vajra.' That's a compliment... Hey, hey, don't hit my face!"
The day they parted was almost unbearably brutal. One nearly died, and the other lost his mind.
Ye Ziyuan resented how easily Shu Xingbei left, and resented himself for not even being able to say a single harsh word.
When they meet again:
"Did I ask you to wait for me?" After all these years, the moment she saw him again, she still fell apart, looking utterly disheveled.
Those words were cruel, turning a decade of waiting into something he deserved. Ye Ziyuan lowered his head, his expression unreadable. Only the corner of his mouth lifted as he let out a quiet laugh. "You haven't changed. You still have a heart of stone." He leaned in gently, breathing warm against the back of her ear as he called her by the two delighted syllables of her name: "Xiao Bei!"
"I've met so many people.
Some made me run a fever,
And I thought it was love,
But it burned everything to ashes.
Some made me feel cold,
Then disappeared from my life forever.
Some made me feel warm,
But it was only warmth, nothing more.
Only you
Raised my body temperature by 0.2 degrees Celsius."
Years later, Shu Xingbei's long-overdue love letter.
First campus, then city life. They help heal one another. The love letter is from Paris Wild Rose.
