(Older woman-younger man romance / forbidden tension / four-year age gap / thrilling and exciting)
People say that when you see a handsome guy, you should take a good look, because it might be the last time you see him.
Twenty-two-year-old Sang Yangyu, who had never dated anyone, lived by that motto. In a mall's bubble tea shop, she stared at a boyishly handsome guy for a full five minutes.
Her sharp-eyed friend caught on and kindly got his Penguin contact for her.
Sang Yangyu worked up the courage to add him as a friend, hoping to find a topic that would bring them closer.
Sang Yangyu opened stiffly: "Hi! Can I ask you something?"
He replied briefly: "Go ahead."
Following her friend's advice, Sang Yangyu asked: "You were reading The Lychees of Chang'an at the bubble tea shop that day. How is the book?"
He replied: "You can look up reviews online yourself."
Sang Yangyu wasn't the kind of bold, straightforward girl who fearlessly pursued love. After hitting a wall once, she never contacted him again.
Then one day, the aloof, handsome guy suddenly showed up at her workplace.
What? He was her coworker's nephew? Maybe she had a chance after all.
A few days later, Sang Yangyu accidentally discovered that the handsome guy was a high school senior...
She gave a bitter smile and let go of her hopes, consoling herself that there were countless men in the world. If the age wasn't right, she could find someone else.
But the aloof, handsome guy suddenly started liking her Penguin profile every day. Sang Yangyu returned the favor, believing in courtesy and reciprocity.
One day, she didn't return his like in time, and he sent her a message.
Ji Ling: "Sis, you didn't like my profile yesterday. [Smiling.jpg]"
Before she could reply, he sent another message: "Looks like you've got another little brother now."
Sang Yangyu: "???"
-Give me fireworks, a brief but extraordinary romance.
-Give me fireworks, an ordinary but lasting life.
