An unconventional, flirtatious good girl x a cool guy with a cold face who does his own laundry
Shi Ye had a relationship when she was seventeen. The other person pursued her for over half a year, then dumped her two months after they officially got together.
After graduation, she stayed in Beicheng and became an ordinary TV station director. Then the leadership changed, and she was pushed back to a local station to do odd jobs.
The day she left in disarray, dragging her luggage behind her, her ex won the Best Actor award at the Berlin Film Festival. His ads were plastered all over Beicheng.
They met again when she went up a mountain to film some footage. Caught in a sudden downpour, she got into a stranger's car.
Outside, the rain came down in torrents. Inside, the car was dim, and the jolting threw her into someone's arms. Only then did she realize that the person sitting beside her was her long-unseen ex.
Liang Qiuyue was as strikingly handsome as she remembered, but he didn't spare her a glance. He even took off his jacket at once when she got it wet, and made no effort to hide the disgust in his voice.
“Miss Shi, do you have to keep throwing yourself at me?”
Liang Qiuyue was handsome, talented, and born into a good family, the very picture of a favored child. In his twenty-odd years, his only stain was being dumped at lightning speed by his first love. Every time he thought about it, it made him grit his teeth with anger.
As fate would have it, the two unexpectedly became neighbors, and somehow he ended up as the landlord of the ex-girlfriend he hated most.
That was bad enough, but his ex kept putting on a pitiful act, openly and covertly trying to get back together with him.
Hah, not a chance.
Until one day at the hospital, Shi Ye took his hand with tears in her eyes, her voice full of grievance.
“Liang Qiuyue, your house almost got me killed. You have to take responsibility. How about we get back together?”
Liang Qiuyue pressed his lips together and said nothing. He tried to pull his hand away, but she hooked her fingers around his and wouldn't let go.
“If we can't get back together, can I pursue you?”
Liang Qiuyue looked at her reddened eyes, on the verge of spilling tears, and finally softened.
“Fine.”
