Tong Tong is a popular author on the BOOK site, with countless hit novels to her name and inspiration always at her fingertips.

Yet at every book signing, there is always a man by her side.

Readers can’t help wondering: Who is the man standing next to Tong Tong?

At last, one reader dares to ask during a signing.

Tong Tong smooths her hair and glances at the man beside her, smiling faintly. “My assistant.”

But after the signing, the man walks Tong Tong to her door and makes as if to go inside with her.

Tong Tong smiles at him. “What are you doing?”

Li Zhuo fixes his dark eyes on her, his voice low. “Being your assistant.”

Li Zhuo is a renowned lawyer, with a winning record of 99 percent.

Yet there are always several popular novels on his desk.

His colleagues at the firm sometimes tease him: “Who would have thought that the undefeated Lawyer Li would read romance novels?”

Li Zhuo smiles and holds out the novel in his hand. “My girlfriend wrote it. Want to show some support?”

Tong Tong and Li Zhuo are neighbors, and they have gone to school together since kindergarten.

They have never missed a day.

When a boy in their class asks Li Zhuo to deliver a love letter to Tong Tong, Li Zhuo cheerfully agrees.

Then he tears the letter to shreds.

The next day, the boy finds Tong Tong and asks if she will go out with him.

Li Zhuo stands in the hallway and tugs Tong Tong toward the classroom. “I don’t understand this problem. Teach me.”

After Li Zhuo drags her away, he sits down and says, “Tong Tong, if you dare start dating before we’re grown up, I’ll tell your mom.”

Tong Tong: ?

Years later, at a class reunion, everyone watches Li Zhuo do Tong Tong’s bidding: he pours her water when she wants a drink, picks the bones out of her fish, and hands her a tissue when she’s done eating.

They can’t help wondering: How did she train her boyfriend?

Tong Tong just smiles at Li Zhuo. “You have to raise your future partner from childhood.”

A little bonus scene:

On the day Li Zhuo confesses, Tong Tong rejects him with a serious expression. “I feel like we know each other too well. We can’t become a couple.”

Li Zhuo gazes steadily into her eyes. “Then let’s be married.”

Tong Tong: ?

Li Zhuo curls his lips into a smile. “We could be lovers, too.”
