A Little Tree's Guide to Winter

🚏 The neighboring story, Limited Pool Party, is now underway ^^ Summer days in the lives of young men and women 💕 /A scheming guy who flirts with everyone x a playful sweetheart who’s always a beat behind At a guesthouse villa during the off-season, a mix-up befalls Chunta, who came to Linjiang to clear her head. The moment she opens the door, her eyes unexpectedly meet those of the man inside. In a simple black turtleneck, with the same strikingly high nose, Jiang Yu lowers his eyes to her lips and says coolly, “We meet again.” Chunta can’t figure out which time he means. - While sharing a rental, Chunta often finds herself puzzled by her new roommate’s behavior. Jiang Yu invites her to dance in the snow, stares into her eyes and calls her cute, and even helps her make the strawberry wine she’s been longing for. Maybe the strawberry wine is too strong. Riding the buzz, Chunta rises onto her toes and kisses Jiang Yu. “I got hooked willingly.” As the kiss leaves him dazed with desire, Jiang Yu nips her earlobe and breathes, “So... please keep reeling me in.” “Reel in only me.” - “If you meet the person you like again, what kind of scene would make the best movie opening?” As graduation season arrives, questions about the past trend once more. The comments fill with unrequited crushes that never went anywhere. Jiang Yu taps out the beginning of his story. A few short lines capture six years of his life: [Someone I thought I’d never see again became my roommate by a twist of fate.] His post stirs up quite a commotion. Plenty of anonymous users beg him to continue. Jiang Yu looks over at Chunta, sleeping soundly and still a little groggy. Gently brushing the hair from her cheek, he tilts his head and types the next line: [Now I’m no longer just another person in her life.] *Also known as: A Record of How a Scheming Guy Lured an Innocent Little Sweetheart* /A tough guy with a soft mouth and an even softer heart x a stubborn, easygoing sweetheart · Original comic artist x game designer # [Bonus Scene] 🎙️ “What was your first thought when you found out your roommate was the other person?” Chunta: This is bad. Jiang Yu: This is great. Coming next: The Living Room’s Chance of Rain Is 52% A suspicious red mark appears on Bian Jiamu’s neck. Her friends all come over to pry into her love life. Bian Jiamu just shakes her head and says, “I’m still single.” She chalks up all those heart-racing moments to the aftereffects of staying up too late. The unspoken kiss in the dim bar was just alcohol taking things too far. She doesn’t take any of it seriously. It’s just that every night, she knocks on the door of her no-label “boyfriend” and says, “I don’t think we’ve kissed today.” - Xie Qizhou often keeps himself apart from the crowd. He hates people crossing his boundaries more than anything. But Bian Jiamu clearly isn’t the sort of girl who knows when to quit. She insists she doesn’t like him, but keeps coming close to plant a kiss on him, then cheerfully tells everyone around her that she’s still single. So, on the night she knocks on his door again, Xie Qizhou refuses her kiss. - Bian Jiamu quickly pulls herself out of this farce. But she forgets one thing: A handsome man is the most dangerous kind. When her gaze falls once more on the mark that shouldn’t be there, all the refusals that reach her lips turn into a single sentence: “Then let’s give it a try.” /A blunt, detached oddball with a strange temper x an avoidant, passionate, arrogant little tsundere ✈️ Travel Guide: · Specific content warnings are in the author’s note for Chapter One. · Both leads are sexually inexperienced. · A story about sensitive but clear-headed, lovable characters.
