The tough Yunnan traveling photographer vs the lonely Beijing nobleman
The owner of Halcyon B&B is from Beijing. He is famous in Yunnan for being arrogant and aloof. No one can negotiate cooperation!
In order to meet customer needs, Jiang Shixian had no choice but to knock on the door of Halcyon.
The man was half leaning against the doorframe, his tall body blocking half of the sunlight.
With one hand in his pocket, his long and fine hair covered his deep eyebrows, and his bottomless eyes emitted a faint light. A cigarette was lit at the corner of his mouth, and the smell of nicotine made Jiang Shixian frown unconsciously.
"Is something wrong?" The man pinched off the cigarette in his hand and spoke indifferently.

After the cooperation ended, the always aloof man pulled her to a corner and said in a domineering tone: "Be my girlfriend."
Jiang Shixian was afraid of falling in love, but she couldn't bear to refuse a man who was close to her, so she proposed to establish a love contract.
"We can try to fall in love for a month. After a month, if you can still stand us, we will continue. If you can't stand us, we will break up."
Jiang Shixian knew in her heart that once she fell in love, she would become paranoid, fragile, sensitive, crazy possessive, and extremely insecure, which would destroy her whole person. No man could stand such a suffocating lover.
Sure enough, within half a year, after she revealed her heart, Jiang Yanli disappeared.
She was anxious, her work was stagnant, and her life was in chaos.
As time passed, she understood that he did not belong here. They were separated by more than a thousand kilometers and their identities were very different. After all, they were two intersecting lines. After a brief intersection, they gradually drifted apart.
So she got back to herself and put all her energy into her work.
She forgot the man's advice to take care of her stomach, and she even forgot the man's appearance.

Goodbye was half a year later, when the man returned to this city.
She thought she had already let go, but when she saw the man again, her eyes were red.
She didn't know what happened to the man. In just six months, he seemed to have just crawled out of hell. His originally clean and fair face had grown a beard, and he looked decadent.
Afraid of being hurt again, she backed away from him.
But he never left, willing to give up everything.
"Jiang Yanli, you shouldn't be here."
"Jiang Shixian, from now on, you are the only family I have, okay?"
Haylcyon: The Chinese transliteration is Halcyon, and it is translated as Kingfisher's Dream in Latin, which means the tranquility and clarity outside the hustle and bustle.
