[Contemporary urban romance | pure love | both devoted | rugged, proactive senior × aloof, conflicted junior | equally matched | groveling ex | emotional healing]
Lin Peiyan has never pursued anyone in his life.
He can keep a straight face while a massage gun makes his legs go weak. When his bank cards are frozen after he quits his job, he just says, “Freeze them, then.” He maxes out his Huabei to save a cat without batting an eye. He's been a rough guy for twenty-three years. What could he possibly not have seen?
Then he meets Wen Heng at a pet hospital.
The man squats down and parts the fur on the cat's hind leg with his fingers. Lin Peiyan stands beside him, his gaze moving from that hand to that face, with only one thought in his mind:
Damn, this guy is exactly my type.
And so Lin Peiyan begins his long pursuit: he adds him on WeChat under the pretext of “reimbursement,” goes to the hospital “to see the cat,” and invites him to play basketball under the guise of “bringing along a junior.” He sends message after message, but the response is always silence.
Later, Lin Peiyan gives up pursuing him.
Then Wen Heng pins him against the wall and says in a low, husky voice, “Didn't you say you were going to pursue me? Keep going.”
