   She pursued him, but he didn't, leaving her frantic and disoriented. Her unrequited love for him was a passionate yet restrained affection from childhood, a love she never dared to confess. The bittersweetness of unrequited love is filled with uncertainty; the thought of his acceptance keeps her awake with excitement, while rejection feels like a death sentence. She stayed up all night for him, even though she was always last in her class, and was always content when they were in the same school. But he was arrogant and sarcastic, mocking her, and she could only congratulate and envy him for being number one. Her wealthy roommate, the school beauty, asked her to deliver a love letter. He thought she was confessing, but instead, he trampled the letter, crushing her unrequited love. She was jealous of his lack of recognition. She feigned amnesia and mustered the courage to confess. This time, they accidentally kissed, both blushing. She asked him if he would marry her, and he earnestly said next year. But next year, she said she couldn't come. She still attended his engagement party with the school beauty, heartbroken. Attending his wedding with the school beauty again, she felt suffocated by the pain. What made him suddenly pull out the school beauty's ring and ask her if she would marry him?

   I stumbled upon this "woman pursuing man" topic and clicked to check out the recommendations. Short urban slice-of-life stories like *Empty Courtyard, Old Snow* are perfect for reading in short bursts of free time—not too mentally taxing. However, seeing a title like *Exhausting Five Years of Deep Affection*, I feel like it's going to be another one of those cliché, frustratingly melodramatic stories 😂. *Moving a Modern Apartment into an Ancient Battlefield After a Substitute Bride*, on the other hand, is quite interesting; it has a really wild imagination. Has anyone read any good, non-melodramatic books lately? Please recommend some! ✨
