[Dating Show] [Sweet Everyday Romance] [Slow Burn] [No Cheap Drama]
The day my aunt tricked me into joining a dating show, I thought I was just there to make up the numbers.
Forty-two days, three meals a day, and slowly falling in love through the seasons. I didn't believe a single punctuation mark of the production team's slogan.
Until I saw a girl crouching under the porch, feeding a cat.
She looked up, a sky-blue jade bangle on her wrist. "Boss Shen, long time no see."
Three years ago, I lent her an umbrella at a tea exhibition. Three years later, she became my regular partner.
Her mother sent a box of celadon, with a note: "For Tangtang and Xiao Shen. Remember to eat well."
My aunt had secretly given her some of my family's spring tea-preserved plums ahead of time.
Our mothers were college classmates, and our grandfathers had been friends for thirty years.
The whole world was shipping us as the "Eat Well CP." Only the two of us were still "starting out as friends."
She asked, "So how long are we going to be friends?"
I said, "Until you think we can be something else."
Ruan Qingtang, my family's longtime friend and heiress.
We started out as friends.
Tea mountain admission is free for friends.
