Stars Shine on the Deep Road

The first time they met, Lu Shen had just gotten back from hauling bricks at a construction site.

His sleeves were rolled high, showing muscles far more developed than those of guys his age. There was blood on his face from a workplace injury, and he looked like the kind of guy who'd say, "I'm seriously not someone you want to mess with."

Ye Fanxing stared at him for a few seconds, rushed over, hugged his arm, and sweetly called him "Darling."

Lu Shen: "..."

Lu Shen glanced at the heartbroken-looking guy behind her, then back at her. Raising an eyebrow, he said, "Two hundred for a scene."

Ye Fanxing, who had been about to say, "Could you help me, handsome?": "...Deal."

The second time they met, Lu Shen shared half a loaf of bread with Ye Fanxing, who had run away from home.

Ye Fanxing: "Can you get any stingier?"

Lu Shen raised an eyebrow, snatched the half-loaf back from her, and said, "Sure."

Ye Fanxing: "..."

The third time they met, Ye Fanxing became Lu Shen's new deskmate.

Later, Ye Fanxing went to great lengths to turn this stingy, brooding, sharp-tongued boy, who understood her better than anyone, into her boyfriend.

At first, Lu Shen: "Sorry, we're not right for each other."

Later, Lu Shen: "...Okay, I take it back."
