In the Palm of His Hand

Blurb

[Next up: Tides and Completely Fallen. Please add them to your favorites!]

In the fifth year of his exile from his family, Lu Chen, who had been living on an island abroad, was suddenly informed that he had a fiancée he'd been engaged to for years.

His fiancée had just come of age. She had a delicate, doll-like face and a sweet, adorable personality.

When he heard she was coming to the island to find him, Lu Chen sat in a suit, legs crossed, sipping coffee. "Give it a week at most. She'll be crying and begging to break off the engagement herself."

On the first day Lin Jiao arrived, Lu Chen coldly laid down three rules for her.

First: Don't go into his room.

Second: Don't touch him.

Third: Don't think you can boss him around.

Lin Jiao thought men always said one thing and meant another.

So on that very first day, she went into his room and showed concern for him.

Lu Chen: I take it all back!

A sweet romance, both leads are virgins, happy ending.

Blurb:

Ji Yuguang had been secretly in love with Bei Xin for five years. It began with attraction at first sight and became love at first sight.

But Bei Xin had never once looked his way.

Bei Xin was beautiful, did well in school, and could play the piano. She was every boy's secret crush.

One day after PE class, Bei Xin came over with a bottle of ice water.

With a sweet smile, she asked him, "Hey, I twisted my ankle during the long jump. Could you carry my schoolbag home for me after school today?"

Afraid she'd find out he had a crush on her, Ji Yuguang refused on the spot. "No!"

Well, that's how you end up alone forever.
