The Childhood Sweetheart Tastes So Sweet

[Childhood sweethearts | Reunion after years apart | Secret office marriage | Long-planned romance | Regretful pursuit]

Lin Bai had the quintessential childhood sweetheart: Jiang Yu.

He was the top student and campus heartthrob who lived across the hall, and the “guardian” who had cleaned up her messes from childhood onward.

She thought their relationship would stay forever in that safe zone of “more than friends, less than lovers.”

Until the summer break of her sophomore year, when she got drunk, climbed onto the wrong balcony, crawled into his bed, wrapped her arms around his neck, and said:

“Jiang Yu, your lips look so soft.”

His body stiffened. In the dark, he asked hoarsely, “Lin Bai, do you know who I am?”

Afterward, Lin Bai fled and avoided Jiang Yu for two years.

Later, he returned from abroad after graduating with his master’s degree and became her boss.

He called her into his office.

“Look at you, so successful now that you don’t even call me ‘big brother’ anymore.”

Eventually, they became a couple, but office romances were strictly forbidden, so they had no choice but to keep their marriage a secret.
