【Two male leads + first love for both + rekindled romance + sweet fluff】
Everyone knows Lin Xiu is Jiang Ting’s tagalong, a burden he has to drag around.
But because of the Lin family’s standing in Yubei, no one dares say anything openly. They can only whisper behind their backs.
Even when the two got married, most people assumed the Lin family had pressured Jiang Ting into it. After all, who would want to marry a sickly man who fell ill every few days?
*
Lin Xiu always believed he and Jiang Ting married because they loved each other. Why else would Jiang Ting give him anything he did or wanted, without question?
Then one chance event made him understand everything. Before he could process it, a serious accident left him retreating in fear again and again. He asked for a divorce, then left Yubei without looking back.
*
Two years later, he returned to the place where his heart had been broken and ran into that man again. He thought they would never cross paths again, but who could have imagined…
One day, “A-Xiu...” Jiang Ting’s scorching breath, tinged with a faint mint fragrance, brushed against his neck. His eyes were red, and the plaintive catch in his voice made the air suddenly still. “When will you come home?”
As Lin Xiu rose onto his toes and wrapped his arms around Jiang Ting’s neck, he heard his own heart pounding, shattering every last doubt. “Jiang Ting, thank you for still being willing to wait for me to come home.”
(No angst here. A little misunderstanding won’t spoil their sweetness. It’s only a misunderstanding, after all, not a lack of love. Xiao Ting is just so lovable!)
