Synopsis: Back in her school days, Meng Zhi was dull, quiet, and unpopular. She was even slow to understand her own feelings.
She once searched an online Q&A platform for the question: How can you tell who you like?
The top-voted answer read: The person you’re thinking of as you ask that question is the one.
Meng Zhi was struck in an instant. Fireworks burst in her mind, and her heart pounded like a drum.
When you like someone, the secret stays in your heart, but their name rests on your lips, ready to escape: Zhou Chenye.
Meng Zhi had seen him at his most dazzling. He was brilliant and dazzling, born at the top of the pyramid, carefree and wild, changing girlfriends one after another.
But it would never be her. Meng Zhi was heartbroken.
In despair, she went alone to a temple to draw a fortune stick, but even the Buddha’s answer was cryptic. Later, she understood that love wasn’t something you could win through vows and prayers alone. A secret crush was heartbreak from the start.
Years later, they met again. A group of friends arranged a get-together. Everyone knew Zhou Chenye had just broken up and was in a bad mood, so they started teasing him.
“God Yi, why look so far away when someone as wonderful as Meng Zhi is right here? Why don’t you two get together?”
The man held a cigarette between his fingers, its ember flickering. His face was hidden in the shadows, his features indistinct. Intrigued, he spoke his first words of the evening: “What do you say?”
Meng Zhi tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and replied mildly, “Sorry, I don’t date men who have girlfriends.”
Zhou Chenye ground his teeth and gave a cold, mocking laugh. “The whole damn world knows I’m single now!”
Meng Zhi stayed calm and collected, playing the perfect hunter as she brought her prey home.
