Spring Won’t Say Goodbye

A Second-Chance Romance (with school-life scenes)

Sharp-tongued, scheming director × Proud, aloof agent (adults)

Witty, carefree boy × Cool, top-student girl (school days)

The year An Xu met Xu Huaiqing, she had just started her first year of high school. Rainy days: the words alone sound dark, always bringing to mind gloom and dampness. Rain soaked the cuffs of her trousers, and cars splashed water onto passersby as they drove by. Most people had a lingering, well-founded dislike of rainy days.

Fine rain drifted down like silk in April, when spring was in full bloom. Puddles lined the mouth of the alley, each one like a mirror reflecting the gloomy sky. She put on her headphones, trying to shut out the noisy, bustling world, and walked through the rain with her umbrella. A slight turn of her head brought a boy crouching in the corner into view.

So she stopped.

Her gaze fell on the kitten in front of him, gnawing on a sausage. Its tawny fur was damp, clinging to its body in little tufts. Thankfully, the umbrella overhead sheltered it from the big, heavy raindrops. She looked up and studied the boy again. The light was dim, and she could only make out his profile. The hair over his forehead was slightly wet, and his school uniform was marked with patches of darker and lighter shades.

When Xu Huaiqing saw An Xu again, her every smile and frown still held him spellbound. But he pretended they were strangers, while secretly keeping her in the corner of his eye. Even after nine years, that had not changed.
