[Happy ending, childhood friends, school life, mutual secret crush]
Everyone knows that the eldest young master of the Cheng family in the capital has a white moonlight he cherishes above all else.
To outsiders, Cheng Xingye is gentle and mild-mannered.
To Su Luoyu, he’s warm yet proud. He can be a little obsessive at times, but he’s a good person.
In Cheng Xingye’s eyes, the grown-up Su Luoyu is like a quail, always hiding whenever trouble arises. When they were kids, she was so bold and enthusiastic that she took him tree-climbing the first time they met. Why has she become so timid now that they’re older?
One day, in a grove at Jinghua University, someone saw Cheng Xingye holding a girl in his arms, his head buried against her chest. They heard him call her “Sis,” and a whole crowd of girls who liked him were left heartbroken.
“A Si, you’re wonderful, but... we’re not right for each other.”
“Do you remember the promise you owe me? I want you to be with me.”
Not right for each other? Impossible. Cheng Xingye has never failed to get what he wants, including the quail who likes him.
“A Si, let’s both get into Jinghua University.”
“Okay.”
By the river in Jiangling, sixteen-year-old Su Luoyu and Cheng Xingye made that promise.
But it took a year longer than expected to fulfill it.
When they met again, Cheng Xingye grabbed Su Luoyu’s hand, pinned her against a wall, and asked darkly, “You dare show your face in front of me again?”
Su Luoyu gazed at the person she had yearned for day and night, her eyes slightly moist, and thought, “A Si, it’s been so long. I’ve come to keep our promise.”
[The story is very sweet, with the occasional bit of angst. A little angst never hurt anyone.]
The front is still good, I hope the back can be as exciting as ever
