[Complete. Read with confidence!]
[A cowardly school bully who cares about saving face and talks a big game VS a cold, domineering, stubborn top student]
“You were the one who flirted first. Why are you backing out now?”
“Mmm, wait a second…”
“We’re both fully equipped. Can’t we talk this over?”
~
School bully Lu Junting vowed to win over Ye Mansheng, the aloof beauty on a pedestal. He was relentless in his attentions, constantly pestering him and trying to curry favor. Unfortunately, the beauty was impervious to both force and persuasion. He always ignored Lu Junting and avoided him.
From then on, Lu Junting had a dream: if the cold, aloof top student ever started running around after him, wouldn’t he be able to brag so much his tail would reach the sky?
But that wasn’t what he meant by running around after him!
Pinned in a narrow alley, Lu Junting trembled. He wasn’t sure whether he was afraid of the boy in front of him or something else, but he still put on a brave face and said, “I-I think the time and place are both really bad. How about next time?”
And why had so many strange things started happening around him after he got close to Ye Mansheng? This top student didn’t seem quite normal either. Was it still too late to run?!
Bonus scene:
After confessing to Ye Mansheng, Lu Junting plucked the petals off a rose, counting to see whether he would say yes. But the last petal said no, and Lu Junting nearly burst into tears. Someone soothed him: “Silly, you haven’t counted the stem yet.”
~
Lu Junting pinned him against a wall and said fiercely, “You took this long to say yes. Don’t push your luck!”
Later, he often whimpered, “Mmm, I was the one pushing my luck…”
PS: Early on, the love interest isn’t fully human; he exists in a spirit form. The reason will be explained later.
Author’s setting: Spirits can alter the magnetic field around them according to their strength, making others nearby hallucinate that they exist in the world. So even as a spirit, Ye Mansheng can continue living his former life as usual.
Both leads are adults. No other partners, happy ending.
A sweet little romance with almost no angst. You won’t regret giving it a try!
(Not scary, not scary, not scary! I’m saying it three times because it’s important. Don’t let my tags scare you off, timid darlings!)
