A contrast in builds, a height difference, and a three-year age gap. [Secret racer X comic artist]
As a romance comic artist, Lin Xi has a wealth of theoretical knowledge but zero practical experience. This often makes her take things too far, crashing headlong into her readers' expectations. She decides she needs to start dating.
She thinks she was the first to fall for him, because when she confessed, he turned her down.
But his physique, looks, and everything else are top-notch. Just sleeping together without getting involved emotionally isn't out of the question. She's an adult, after all. But once she gets some experience, he refuses to let her go.
Later, rubbing her sore waist, she asks, “Gu Yu, are you sure you have no experience with that sort of thing?”
He looks incredulous. “I used to spend all my time making money. When would I have had time for all that nonsense?”
Lin Xi is speechless. “Then how come you suddenly have time now?”
Gu Yu thinks for two seconds. “I suddenly realized my schedule wasn't very efficient. Make money during the day, have my way with you at night. Why not?”
…
A child came to the small town, tiny in every way. She couldn't stand the blazing sun, but insisted on making life harder for herself, wrapping up like a dumpling and getting heatstroke rather than putting down her sketchbook as she wandered around drawing.
Later, she stood before him in a white dress, her slender arms and legs glowing pale. With her doe eyes fixed on him, she told him she liked him.
He turned her down. To him, she was just a child.
But in his dreams, she became a clingy little temptress, and when he woke up, he felt like a beast.
After that, he slowly lost control, thinking that maybe he could manage raising a child after all.
In the end, she left, and only then did he realize that he had treated her like a girlfriend, while she had treated him like a casual hookup.
