The Childhood Friend’s Handbook

Xu Zhaoyi accidentally liked a Weibo post mocking her childhood friend Shen Yan: “Sharp-tongued and mean. Destined to die alone!”

Five minutes later, Shen Yan replied from his verified account: “Who was it that clung to me last night, crying, ‘Yan-gege, you're the most handsome man in the world’?”

The post exploded onto the trending list.

She went silent for three days, but Shen Yan caught her in the art studio. “Avoiding me?” His fingertip brushed the paint by her lips. “Xu Zhaoyi, I still have a video of you wetting the bed when you were three on my cloud drive.”

Later, during a livestream of a financial summit, a reporter asked Shen Yan about the wedding ring on his left ring finger.

He smiled at the camera. “It took me twenty years to sweet-talk my childhood sweetheart into marrying me. I'd better keep a close eye on her.”

Watching the livestream while racing to finish a deadline, Xu Zhaoyi threw down her pen in fury.

Who was the one who secretly switched her high school application form, making her live next door to him for four whole years?!
