Synopsis

During the rainy season on Hefang Street, Shen Qinghe discovers that Gu Yanzhi’s cultural-creative parasols use her “Half-Open Lotus” pattern without permission. The fire ten years ago left him convinced she had stolen the formula, but he never knew she had burned her forearm to protect his father’s manuscript on “Bamboo and Porcelain in Harmony.” Afterward, she uses bamboo filaments to mend his shattered porcelain teacup, while he secretly mixes mugwort into her glaze to ease her arthritis. When she paints through the pain, driving a silver needle into her palm, he watches the security footage with tear-filled eyes. On a typhoon night, she collapses at his door. The silk parasol’s willows over West Lake are his mother’s favorite. As they restore intangible cultural heritage, they use bamboo filaments as brushes and porcelain patterns as ink to clear up their misunderstanding. In the Palace Museum exhibition hall, the crackle pattern cast by the “Fully Open Lotus” silk parasol aligns with the old scar on his wrist. On the blue-stone pavement, they join hands, bringing parasol ribs and porcelain patterns into harmony as they write a promise to stand by each other for the rest of their lives.

Fresh Modern Romance, No Marriage Before Love

Here's what I'm looking for: no marriage early in the story, no kids, no marriage first and love later, and the female lead shouldn't fall for the male lead first. Right now, "The CEO Is on Top" seems really nice. I'd like a cool-headed female lead with her own principles, and a male lead who falls for her first.

High-Quality, Medium-to-Long Romance Novels

Historical or modern settings are both fine. No more than 800–2,000 chapters. Good writing and sound logic. It can be unconventional, but it mustn't be stupid. Most importantly, no angsty stories. Thanks. 💋
