Slanting Sunlight Through Drizzle, Waiting for the Wind and for You

[Childhood sweethearts + mutual pining + domineering CEO + healing + coming-of-age romance with a happy ending]

[An upbeat, determined teacher + a scheming IT guy she helped raise. Both are too stubborn to admit how they feel, while he secretly dotes on her.]

Liu Qingyu and Zhang Jiayang had known each other for over twenty years. The first time she realized she liked him, he had a girlfriend.

The first time Zhang Jiayang realized his feelings for her went beyond friendship, an older student had already swept her off her feet.

Unexpectedly, one romance of Liu Qingyu's would bring a secret from more than twenty years ago to light: the parents who had raised her all her life were not her biological parents, and the older student who swore he loved her had only approached her to get revenge.

Later, Zhang Jiayang told her, “I'll work hard to make money and save up your dowry. I'll personally send you off to get married.”

Later still, as he pinned her to the bed and kissed her, Zhang Jiayang said, “Wait three years. Then will you let yourself fall in love?”

After they got their marriage certificate, Liu Qingyu asked the man beside her, “Didn't you say you'd personally send me off to get married?”

Zhang Jiayang raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of tenderness. “As it happens, I'm that man!”

Zhang Jiayang had brought that withered flower back to life.

(Two childhood friends weather every twist and turn, helping each other become better people.)

There is always someone in life who, though never a lover, has already become part of you, as essential as your own flesh and blood.

Those destined to be together will meet again in the end, no matter how far apart they go!
