[Studying in New York] [Architecture Prodigy] [Strong Female Lead's Growth] [Tug-of-War Over a Secret Crush] [Light Comedy Turns Bittersweet]
A highly capable Northeastern Chinese woman who's slow to recognize her own feelings x a tough-looking New York local hero who's sensitive on the inside.
Cheng Yuelai came to New York with her studies planned and her budget set. The one thing she hadn't accounted for was that her "entire apartment" already had two grown men living in it.
One of them was named Logan.
The first time she met him, he was cleaning up a mess his younger brother had caused.
The next time, he was fixing computers and hauling equipment, as busy as if every corner of New York had put him to work.
She thought he could solve anything.
She didn't know there were some questions he didn't even dare to ask.
Cheng Yuelai was busy designing and winning competitions. Sometimes she'd ask him to dinner and share some trivial little thing with him.
He began looking forward to those little things.
Until someone who knew her in childhood also came to New York and approached her openly and confidently.
Logan stayed busy, kept smiling, and kept saying he'd come by when he had time.
Only his Chinese notes kept growing thicker.
She was carefully planning her future.
He thought even wanting to be included in it was greedy.
