The day she returned to Huaian at twenty-five, Lin Qiao couldn't even fix a circuit breaker.
The aroma of lotus seed and duck soup drifted over from the neighboring courtyard. A man in a wheelchair helped her fix the breaker. Only later did she learn that he'd spent the whole afternoon cooking that soup, waiting for her to come home.
Her birth family was a bottomless pit, and every penny she'd saved during five years in the tutoring industry had gone toward their debts. She thought this was all life had in store for her: substitute teaching in a small town, taking the civil service exam, and living an uneventful life without making mistakes.
Until one night, she stepped onto the rooftop.
The cold wind blew for a long time. Chen Mu looked up at her from below.
"Qiaoqiao. Will you come down? I can't get up there."
It was the first time Chen Mu had called her "Qiaoqiao."
He brought her a bowl of pineapple rice. After Lin Qiao finished it, she said,
"Chen Mu, will you marry me?"
He was silent for a long time. So long that she thought he had rejected her.
He said, "All right."
The male lead is gentle and caring, incredibly tender-hearted, and naturally inclined to look after others.
The heroine is resilient, ambitious, and thoughtful.
Some chapters may be revised from time to time.
It's great to watch. The male protagonist is so gentle and the female protagonist is definitely there. The female protagonist is also very tough and motivated. Her friends are also very good. We can solve problems together. I really want to see the sweet daily life of the two of them after marriage!!
