[Love at First Sight, Then Heartbreak, Top vs. Walks Away on a Whim, Bottom]
He had the nerve to jokingly propose to Yang Zhao, but not the nerve to come clean to his parents once they started to suspect something.
So Yun Qiran packed his bags and left home after the college entrance exams.
Years later, thanks to the combined efforts of a friend and a doctor, he crept back into the country.
Unluckily, he didn't run into Yang Zhao during the first month.
Luckily, he did in the second.
Yun Qiran: Hide, hide, hide.
Yang Zhao: Catch, catch, catch.
Yang Zhao: It's no big deal if someone runs away. The real problem is if they come back and you still can't hold on to them.
This is a story about two gears that, after a long time, finally found each other's teeth again.
The day after the college entrance exams ended, Yun Qiran took his meager luggage and the bank card his adoptive parents had given him, then quietly left the country to study abroad.
He had made up his mind never to return, but years later, his direct supervisor sent him back on a work assignment.
During his first month back:
Yun Qiran: I hope I don't run into Yang Zhao.
During his second month back:
Yun Qiran: Have a little drink, do something big. I'm leaving soon anyway, so I'll worry about it if anything happens.
During his third month back:
An official work assignment email sent personally by his direct supervisor not only put an end to Yun Qiran's plan to sneak away, but also forced him to clock in at Yang Zhao's company every day.
Yun Qiran: Well, who knows? If I can keep doing this job, I will. If not, I'll quit on the spot.
Fearless junior employee: President Yang, your first love must have been gorgeous, right?
Yang Zhao: She was pretty gorgeous.
Yun Qiran: So she's pretty. Why do you keep looking at me?
