A Little Bit of Love

[Main story complete]

During a break in a fiercely contested meeting,

someone catches the big client forcibly pinning Lin Yu against a wall near the restroom and grilling her.

Shen Zhichu: "Miss Lin, do you have a problem with my technique?"

Lin Yu: "N-no, I don't..."

The man laughs hoarsely at her answer and whispers in her ear, "Since you don't, why are you pretending not to know me? Are you planning to use me and then dump me without taking responsibility, or do you think I've forgotten that night?"

Lin Yu: [stunned.jpg]

Lin Yu: Hello? Is this the police? Someone's claiming we're together!

A long, long time ago, he met her, fell in love at first sight, and fell even harder the second time. He never forgot her after that.

[Draft for a future story] "Restrained Devotion"

Synopsis 1

After the new neighbor moved in without a word, Lin Qianyin never crossed paths with him, until one day her cat jumped next door.

She was straddling the low wall between their terraces, trying to coax the cat back, when the glass door next door suddenly slid open with a swish.

A tall, slender man stood there, his shirt buttons done up haphazardly, his bangs damp, his gaze captivating, and the corners of his eyes already red.

The face-loving girl awkwardly raised a paw. "Hi there, handsome."

But he called her by name. "Lin Qianyin, this time you came right to me yourself."

Synopsis 2

Word spread that the proud, sharp-tongued second son of the wealthy Cheng family was in love, and the group chat with her best friends exploded.

Lin Qianyin was engrossed in her phone when a long, slender hand with distinct knuckles came to rest on her shoulder from behind.

The man they'd just been talking about leaned close. Amusement flickered in his dark eyes as he said in a low voice, "Yinyin, the bath is ready."

A face-blind, handsome-face-loving veteran and a famously sharp-tongued, jealous vinegar fiend

[Upcoming story] "Hey, Wife"

Synopsis 1

The Ye and Song families' marriage alliance was presented as a match made in heaven between a perfect couple. In reality, it was just an exchange of interests and a powerful alliance.

On their wedding night, Ye Zhisu tossed a written agreement to the groom. The terms were laid out in black and white: from then on, they would treat each other with courtesy, keep out of each other's way, and each be free to do as they pleased.

She never expected him to tear the agreement to pieces without even reading it. His slightly tipsy eyes were as dark as the night, and his voice was low. "A Su, I went to so much trouble to marry you. I didn't do it so you could fob me off with this ridiculous agreement on our wedding night."

Ye Zhisu was backed into a corner and sat on the edge of the bed, dumbfounded.

W-what was going on? Weren't they supposed to be a cool, distant couple who would sleep in separate rooms after the wedding? Why was he still here, refusing to leave?!

Synopsis 2

When I think of your love, I am so rich, I scorn to change my state with kings.

--Shakespeare, Sonnet 29

A long pursuit of his wife after a childhood sweetheart falls from the sky

Theme: Finding your true self
