Read this one just for fun, okay? It's so sweet it'll make your teeth ache. The early chapters are in first person, but that will change later (starting with Chapter 157).
Main couple: Gu Ran x Xiao Nan. Side couple: Lin Hao x Gu Ze, plus three more couples.
When I was twelve, I fainted from low blood sugar in my family's grocery store. The transfer student Gu Ran mistook me for a candy thief.
He coldly snatched the jar of sweets from my arms, but when he learned the truth, he shoved a whole handful of imported milk candies into my palm. "I'm sorry."
From then on, he became my personal snack supplier.
In middle school, when people mocked me for being "delicate," he shut them down in front of everyone.
In high school, when my blood sugar dropped, he carried me down five flights of stairs in one go.
At the arts festival, I was so nervous my hands were shaking. He popped a mint into my mouth. "Don't be scared. I'll be watching from below."
Everyone could see how he kept me close to his heart. I was the only one silly enough to ask, "Why are you so good to me?"
His ears turned red. He put a candy in my hand and refused to say another word.
After the college entrance exam, his family sent him overseas, leaving me a jar of candy that could last four years.
With a twelve-hour time difference between us, misunderstandings and distance grew like weeds. The day my grandfather became critically ill, I crouched alone in a hospital corridor, clutching the candy wrapper he had given me and sobbing so hard my whole body shook.
I had no idea that at that moment, thirty thousand feet in the air, he was clutching a ticket he'd changed overnight, staring out at the clouds with red-rimmed eyes.
When he rushed into the hospital room, I was staring blankly at the empty candy jar.
He pulled me into his arms, squeezing so tightly my bones hurt. "Xiao Nan, listen to me..."
"You're not alone anymore."
