Le Yan never expected
that she’d run into her ex again after five years apart
just before a typhoon.
Wen Yu moved in next door,
and the two former lovers, who’d sworn never to cross paths again,
were now
neighbors.

July, the first typhoon of the year.
Somehow, the wind blew the clothes she’d forgotten to bring in
onto the neighbor’s balcony.
Wen Yu hooked one finger through her clothes,
a cryptic smile playing on his lips.
“Want them back?”
“Come over nicely and get them yourself.”

August, the second typhoon of the year.
Gusts of up to level 17 swept in, and the power suddenly went out.
The whole world was plunged into darkness.
Le Yan huddled in her room, trembling with fear,
when suddenly there was a knock at the door,
followed by Wen Yu’s anxious voice.
“Le Yan, it’s me.”
“Open the door.”

September, the third typhoon of the year.
Wen Yu walked right into her home,
picked her up, and carried her toward the bedroom.
He said casually,
“The typhoon’s here. I was afraid you’d be scared at home.”
No, she wasn’t scared.
Compared to the typhoon, she was much more afraid of the beast in front of her.

Le Yan had wanted to keep things civil with Wen Yu
and stick to a peaceful coexistence.
She never expected that, as they spent more time together...
Every stormy, pitch-black typhoon night
left her utterly exhausted.
Later, Wen Yu held her in his arms, his voice coaxing.
“Yanyan, am I really only good enough to be your neighbor?”
She looked at the handsome man before her, with his mouthwatering six-pack.
...They couldn’t stay neighbors. He said he wanted to be her husband.
Note: Both leads are sexually inexperienced.
