Waiting for You in the Wilds

[Both leads are inexperienced + sweet, flirty romance + wealthy families + rekindled love + romantic rivalry]

[Reunion: fair-skinned, beautiful, gentle housewife (not really) vs. refined, moonlit dentist (not really)]

You Pan returned to her hometown to take care of her divorce and get a medical checkup while she was at it.

What she never expected was this:

The aloof gynecologist was Shao Junye, the wealthy first love she had once loved deeply.

That day, she lay on the examination table, her curves on full display.

He leaned over to examine her, and an itch she couldn’t hide crept from her eyes into her heart.

Her heart pounded like it was about to burst. In a soft, stammering voice, You Pan said, “I, I’ve never had sex.”

“Ahem.” Shao Junye cleared his throat, his pupils widening slightly. “I can tell.”

What did he mean, he could tell?!

You Pan held her breath, like a prisoner awaiting judgment.

Could anything be more mortifying than running into your first love at a gynecology clinic years after breaking up, only for your ex-boyfriend to discover that you’re still a virgin even though you’re married?!

[Back in school: scheming school beauty who plays innocent vs. devoted, calculating academic from a wealthy family]

Shao Junye was the school heartthrob and had held the top spot in his year for as long as anyone could remember. He was always proper and courteous, proud yet self-possessed.

When others confessed their feelings or tried to get close to him, he never dragged things out. A simple “I’m sorry” ended the conversation.

Even when he kissed the school beauty, with her ample chest, slim waist, and sweet personality, he showed no further reaction.

Everyone assumed he cared only about his studies and had no interest in romance.

No one expected that six years after graduating high school, news of his marriage to the twice-married school beauty would top the global trending charts.
