Come Here and Let Me Hold You

Next up: You'd Better Not Play with Fire [Entertainment Industry], a sweet post-marriage romance. Please add it to your favorites~

Eighteen-year-old Lu Ling had never been in love when she was handed a fiancé. He was handsome and rich, but she didn't like him, and always called him Uncle. At an awards ceremony, someone saw Lu Ling getting out of the car of He Yao, the only son of the prestigious He family. A reporter asked her, "What's your relationship with He Yao?" Lu Ling smiled faintly. "I call him Uncle." An hour later, after stepping offstage with her award, Lu Ling was led into a quiet corridor.

"Uncle, hmm?"

"..."

"You didn't call me that yesterday, did you?"

"I was drunk. I don't remember."

"Is that so?"

"Mmm..."

"Remember now?"

He Yao had secretly longed for his fiancée throughout their three-year engagement, but hadn't even held her hand. That was until Lu Ling got drunk one night, wrapped her arms around his neck, and demanded a kiss. Only then did he realize that his fiancée wasn't as unruffled as she seemed. After they got together, He Yao carried Lu Ling all the way from the eastern side of the city to the west. Lu Ling bit his ear and asked smugly, "When did you fall so hopelessly in love with me?" He Yao chuckled and gazed ahead, as if seeing her from years ago, coming down the stairs with a lively, lovely air.

A few things to know before reading: 1. The male lead is seven years older than the female lead. Both are virgins, and this is a sweet romance. 2. The characters aren't based on real people. Please don't overanalyze.

Please add my next book, You'd Better Not Play with Fire [Entertainment Industry], to your wanted list~

Blurb: Yan Duo runs into award-winning actor Ji Ran in an elevator. While Ji Ran chats with the person beside him, Yan Duo quietly moves into a corner and idly taps the elevator wall, exactly nine times. At nine that evening, Yan Duo sneaks to the door of a hotel suite. The moment she stops, someone pulls her inside.

"What are you doing here?" Ji Ran asks, his gaze distant.

"Maybe I'm sneaking around for an affair?"

Sneaking around is no different from having an affair. So was the marriage certificate lying at home just for show?

Months later, Ji Ran appears on a variety show. The crew livestreams from his home and asks him to show off his most precious possession. On camera, Ji Ran gets up, walks to the bedroom, opens the wardrobe, and uses three keys to unlock a safe. As everyone speculates about what priceless treasure might be inside, the award-winning actor takes out two red booklets. The words "Marriage Certificate" are printed on them.

The crew asks, "Can we take a look?"

Ji Ran shakes his head. "No. My wife would get mad."

A woman watching on TV thinks, No, your wife won't get mad, because you don't have a wife anymore!

A sweet post-marriage romance, continuing in the same sugary style. Both are virgins.

Recommended: my friend's book, The Only One Who Can Save This World, by Wei Ying. One-line pitch: What goes around comes around. Today, I'm the heroine.
