Meeting the Sun

[Redemption story / Sweet romance / Sunny girl × boy with a tragic past]

Before the training camp, Zhou Wei had an ambitious goal: to take first place!

But when she arrived at the art studio, she discovered that first place already belonged to someone else. In the lower-left corner of a color painting, she saw the name of the top student: Lu Yao.

So Zhou Wei secretly vowed to knock Lu Yao off that throne.

But before she could knock Lu Yao off the top spot, she ended up badly injured herself. When she later looked back on what had happened, she was shocked to realize that Lu Yao had been involved every time she got hurt.

She suspected he was trying to stop her from taking first place. She wasn't about to back down, so she accepted the challenge.

But... she accepted a challenge, so why was Lu Yao treating her like the sun?

[Little Scene 1]

"Lu Yao, does your laundry detergent smell like jasmine?"

Lu Yao froze, then asked, "How did you know?"

"I could smell it. It smells nice. Can you send me a link?"

"Lu Yao, are you hot?"

Lu Yao said, "I'm fine."

"Then why are your ears so red?"

The boy's ears were already red enough to drip blood.

Zhou Wei exclaimed, "Why is your face red too?"

At that moment, Lu Yao's face, ears, and neck were all red. He looked like a fully ripened apple.

Zhou Wei immediately fanned him with her hand, pleading, "Don't get heatstroke because of me."

Lu Yao's mouth twitched. "I won't."

He tried hard to come up with an excuse, finally managing, "The sun makes my face turn red."

"Oh, then you must be allergic to ultraviolet rays."

[Little Scene 2]

Zhou Wei looked at the teddy bear Lu Yao was holding out to her. "Are you trying to make up?"

Lu Yao nodded.

Zhou Wei took the toy. "Fine, I forgive you."

Lu Yao looked a little indignant. "What do you mean, 'I forgive you'? Zhou Wei, do you even have a heart? You gave someone else the breakfast I made for you. I should be the one who's angry. I should be the one forgiving you!"

Zhou Wei waved the toy in her hand. "But you're the one trying to make up, aren't you?"

Lu Yao: "..."

Zhou Wei: "But why are you giving me a teddy bear to make up?"

Lu Yao: "I read online that a teddy bear can turn into a brave warrior and protect its owner while they sleep. I want you to sleep well. I want you to be happy."

Zhou Wei stared blankly at him, her cheeks growing warm, sweet music playing in her ears.

It was as if pink bubbles were floating all around them.

The next second.

Wait, wait, wait!

Where did that background music come from?
