Secret Crush

[Main Story Complete] [Taking two days off before updating the extra chapters] 1 Xu Zhi and Lu Qiyang had never gotten along very well, even as kids. They couldn't eat properly or sleep well without trading a few barbs. Until one day, Xu Zhi realized that she... Maybe, possibly, probably... Had fallen for Lu Qiyang. 2 It was a rainy day. Outside, the wind howled and rain poured down, while lightning flashed and thunder roared. Xu Zhi stood at the entrance to the building and smiled at Lu Qiyang, whom she'd "just happened" to run into. She greeted him first. The young man's eyelid twitched. He slowly raised his eyes. Xu Zhi was still smiling, her eyes curved as she held out a hand in a friendly gesture. Lu Qiyang instinctively took a step back. Then he looked closely: a rain umbrella. It was as if he were meeting her for the first time. He didn't say a word for a long while. After quite some time, as if he'd thought of something, he asked in utter disbelief, "I only ate one of your popsicles, and now you're planning to challenge me to a duel with a weapon in hand?" "...?" Xu Zhi's smile slowly vanished. Then the boy stumbled through the years, put on a police uniform, and held tight to her dream. He hacked through the obstacles in her "impossible dream" and raced forward all the way. When they met again, the man smiled and finally admitted, "Yes, I like you."

There was just one thing: her family had arranged a "boyfriend" for her. He was considerate and gentle, young and successful. More importantly, he was the Yu family's biggest business partner. Yu Bai resisted several times to no avail, so she could only humor him. But he only ever cared about work, and was terribly dull. After putting up with it for a long time, she finally couldn't take it anymore. After throwing a huge tantrum, she slammed the door and left. She'd left in such a hurry that by the time she came to her senses, she was in an unfamiliar part of town. Her phone had run out of battery, too. Yu Bai gazed around in a daze. The sky was growing dark, and people streamed past her, but she had no idea where to go. Then someone noticed her. "Need a hand?" She looked up. His eyes were dark, his features rugged, and there was a fierce edge to him. Yu Bai had never met anyone like him. Afterward, she kept thinking of him at unexpected moments. Until one day, she finally couldn't hold back any longer and asked someone to find out about him. She had to find him. Later, when she finally did, she realized she had no idea how to pursue someone. She thought about it for a long time, then decided to give him a present. The man lowered his eyes and smiled, but didn't accept it. "Bribing a police officer in public," he said, staring straight at her. "What's your motive?" "I want..." she said softly. "To be a police officer's wife." The man's lips curled slightly, and a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes. "All right. Are you brave enough to get a marriage license?" Reader's Guide: 1.
