He Is Gentler Than the Wind

[The companion story, Lemon, Just a Little Sweet, is currently updating. Please add it to your collection!]

Tang Mo, heir to the Tang family, is a refined gentleman with an air of privilege and a rakish charm. He seems like a ladies' man, but in truth he's heartless.

His friends all know that he never dates, let alone brings a woman home.

Later, everyone is shocked to discover that Tang Mo is hiding a sweet, gentle girl with bright eyes and lovely features in his home.

His friends pepper him with questions: "Is she your girlfriend or your fiancée?"

Tang Mo calmly denies it. "Neither. I was just asked to look after her."

Word has it that Tang Mo likes sweet, adorable girls who are soft and clingy.

So Yan Shi hides her sexy waist, straightens her tempting curls, and acts cute and sweet around him every day, trying her hardest to show him just how adorable she is.

One time, while Tang Mo was away on a business trip, Yan Shi let loose.

She ate hotpot and drank beer at home with her friends, playing drinking games and having a blast.

And then, right in the middle of all that, she spotted Tang Mo standing at the door with his suitcase, watching her with narrowed eyes...

Yan Shi's plan backfired spectacularly. Tang Mo discovered that her sweet, adorable act was all fake.

Later, Tang Mo upset Yan Shi. Despite his earnest pleas for her to stay, the young woman insisted on moving out.

She left without a backward glance or a trace of regret, and stopped contacting him altogether.

Not long afterward, they ran into each other by chance at a bar. To Yan Shi's surprise, this man with a usually excellent tolerance for alcohol was drunk.

Tang Mo took her hand and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly as he slurred an apology. "I'm a bastard. I'm not even human. Yan Yan, please don't ignore me, okay?"

Before I fell in love with you, I didn't understand what it meant to be sincere.

After I fell in love with you, you're the only one who can make my heart stir.

Please add my companion story, Lemon, Just a Little Sweet, to your collection. Here's the blurb:

1. A new professor has joined the finance department at the university next door. He's aloof, refined, disciplined, and impeccably mannered.

The next morning, Shan Xiwei goes to class in her best friend's place and meets the professor in person.

A pair of gold-rimmed glasses rests on the bridge of his high nose. He strides steadily and composedly to the podium, then sweeps his gaze across the classroom, cold and piercing.

Shan Xiwei only wanted to see how handsome the professor everyone called a heartthrob was. She never expected to meet his cool gaze without warning.

Their eyes meet across the cold, reflective lenses. Shan Xiwei startles, her heart sinking, and she nearly bolts on the spot.

No one knows that just last night, this very man, shirt half open, had cornered her and teased her sensually by the ear, like a man playing with a cat. "Weiwei, it's been years. Don't you recognize your big brother?"

This was also the man who flirted with her, doted on her, and protected her six years ago, making her fall hopelessly in love with him. But when she confessed, he rejected her without mercy, shattering every beautiful dream she had of her first love.

2. Shan Xiwei loves lemon drops, and Xie Jingchen has long been used to carrying her favorite candy with him.

After they get together, Shan Xiwei falls ill one day. Xie Jingchen coaxes her ever so gently before finally getting her to take her medicine.

The young woman finishes her dose with a furrowed brow, then hurriedly grabs his hand, looking for candy.

The man chuckles and lifts her chin, slipping the candy between his teeth into her mouth.

"Still bitter?"

"A little..."

Xie Jingchen holds the back of her head and tastes the lemon candy with her, then asks in a low, tender voice, "How about now?"

Shan Xiwei's cheeks quickly turn pink. Her lashes flutter as she answers softly, "Sour... and sweet."

[Bonus scene:]

Shan Xiwei has a red birthmark on the right side of her lower back. Only her family, best friend, and roommates know about it.

On the night things finally came together, she unexpectedly discovers a tattoo on the right side of Xie Jingchen's lower back. It's a single, simple character: Wei.

"When did you get it?"

"The day I turned you down."
