No Need to Be Surprised When I Walk on Walls

A lighthearted story about a student and a lecturer, Ji Feiyan and Zhou Bi, two people whose names seem destined to be together, as their secret crush turns into reality. Yes, you read that right. That's all there is to this blurb. Hiding my face... Ongoing novel: Just Want to Talk About Everyday Life with You. A warm, everyday story. Please give it a try. This is a story about someone who is sharp-tongued before falling in love, then gets his face-slapped again and again after he does. First, their impressions of each other. Huo Wentao: Just an immature little girl who came to politely turn down a blind date on behalf of her cousin. Sang Qi: Is this guy insane? I practically had to brave fire and water on my cousin's behalf. And then their second impressions, after getting to know each other. Huo Wentao: The way she fools herself is pretty amusing. Sang Qi: His two-faced act isn't half bad, either. Sang Qi: So, is this just a difference between men and women? Huo Wentao smiled. No, it's just the difference between you and me. A sharp-tongued, tsundere bookstore owner + a university student who loves to write. He says: Sometimes the nagging of one's elders can be more life-shortening than a blind date. He says: Roses and diamonds are nothing but marketing scams designed to brainwash women. He says: If I didn't know you were digging for gossip to use in your writing, I'd think you'd fallen for me. He says: If you're not secretly in love with me, you'd better stop prying into my private life. He says: You don't really believe that eternal love exists in this world, do you? And yet love comes gradually, like a gentle stream. When he discovers that he has actually fallen for her, roses, diamond rings, and the eternal love he used to scoff at all come back to face-slap him. At long last, he says with resigned helplessness: Don't be naive. Love is bound to go bad sooner or later... So marry me before it does, turn love into responsibility and family affection, and then bet on whether I'm a man whose conscience can keep him in line... Well, is there even anything to bet on? Sang Qi can't help laughing. That man who drove across half the city in the middle of the night to make sure she was safe, who else could he be? Reader: Why does everyone just keep talking? Author: Exactly, because this is a love story about two people with completely different personalities slowly kindling a wonderful spark as they spend their days together, talking about all the little things in life. The most romantic thing I can imagine is spending all our days talking about life's little things with you. Bonus scene: Cousin: Why are you always hanging around the bookstore? Sang Qi: So I can hear gossip more easily and use it in my writing. Cousin: Why are you still working at the shop during summer vacation? Sang Qi: So I can get gossip out of Mr. Huo more easily and use it in my writing. Cousin: Don't tell me you went to a hotel room with Mr. Huo to work on your writing, too??? Sang Qi: Don't get the wrong idea. I said I had no experience with that sort of thing, and he said he'd help me! Huo Wentao: Y-You know what they mean when they say trying to explain only makes you look guiltier, right?! Sang Qi: Fine, fine. We were just doing field research. We didn't do anything.
