Friends to lovers, awkward and bittersweet.
Laid-back office worker x aloof, abstinent elite
·
Chu Yang had no particular ambitions in life. All she really looked forward to was treating herself to a good meal after work on Fridays.
She never imagined that one day, Zhou Ziheng would want to treat her to a good meal, too.
After one reckless night, Chu Yang dodged Zhou Ziheng every day, but he kept seeking her out, taking her hand and placing it on his abs.
"Didn't you say you hadn't had enough?"
·
Zhou Ziheng didn't believe in getting involved with the girl next door.
Even after knowing Chu Yang for 26 years, he couldn't imagine the two of them ending up in the same bed.
Until one rainy night, when Chu Yang shivered faintly in his arms.
He became addicted, and there was no turning back.
·
Their friendship gradually spiraled out of control. One day, Chu Yang seriously suggested they put an end to it.
The next second, the lock on the door behind her clicked shut.
Chu Yang took a week off work.
By the end, she was so weak she could barely stand, while Zhou Ziheng looked on as her legs trembled.
Zhou Ziheng gazed at her with a deep smile. "Baby, do you still want to end this and just be friends?"
Chu Yang shook her head.
