Sweet romance / Reunited after a breakup / Chasing his wife

Jiang Xinran has a bad habit: when drunk, she likes to kiss people at random. That's why she never drinks in front of others.

At a reunion banquet years after graduation, she unexpectedly ran into Gu Ruo.

Everyone knew Jiang Xinran and Gu Ruo were always at each other's throats.

No one knew Jiang Xinran loved Gu Ruo with all her heart.

At the banquet, Jiang Xinran once again competed with Gu Ruo, and the two challenged each other to drink. After several rounds, Gu Ruo remained perfectly composed, while Jiang Xinran got drunk and started making a scene. In front of everyone, she wrapped her arms around Gu Ruo and kissed her, mumbling the same drunken words over and over: "I like you."

The next day, Jiang Xinran opened the door, holding her aching, pounding head, and came face-to-face with Gu Ruo's beautiful eyes, completely unprepared. The look went straight to her soul.

Her heart raced erratically. Leaning against the door, she pretended to be calm. "What do you want?"

"Did you mean what you said last night?" Gu Ruo demanded.

"What did I say?"

"That you like me."

Jiang Xinran froze for a second, then leaned against the doorframe and smiled lazily. "Like you or not? I was drunk last night. I don't remember a thing I said..."

Before she could finish, Gu Ruo pinned her against the door.

"You are not allowed to forget." She spoke beside Jiang Xinran's ear, her voice low and fierce, her teeth clenched.

Yet she was trembling so badly that her bravado was all for show.

Jiang Xinran looked up with a mocking smile, then froze when she saw Gu Ruo's red-rimmed eyes.

"Are you threatening me?"

"I'm not threatening you." Gu Ruo held her tightly, choking back a sob. "I'm begging you."

The treasure she had kept in her heart was lost, then found again.

How could she bear to threaten her?

Every effort I made after leaving you was so I could return to your side and have you all to myself.

Blurb:

Ai Yichi fell in love with Shen Zhaoxia at eighteen. At twenty, she married her without a second thought. From then on, there was only one thing in her life: waiting anxiously every day for Shen Zhaoxia to come home.

Day after day, year after year.

By the time she turned twenty-five, all she got was a divorce agreement, given to her under the lovely excuse of "setting you free."

Ai Yichi was at a loss, staring blankly as tears streamed down her face.

Shen Zhaoxia frowned in annoyance and watched with cold indifference.

Ai Yichi remembered how, when Shen Zhaoxia proposed, she had looked at her and managed only to say, "Xiao Ai." After that, she could not get another word out.

Afraid of putting her on the spot, Ai Yichi had eagerly said, "I do," before Shen Zhaoxia could even finish asking.

Holding the divorce agreement, Ai Yichi finally understood: Shen Zhaoxia hadn't been too moved to speak that day. She simply didn't love her, and so couldn't keep up the lie to the end.

Then Ai Yichi took up the baton and kept lying to herself for all those years.

Ai Yichi had given up on Shen Zhaoxia.

But later, Shen Zhaoxia cornered her on her way home from work.

Shen Zhaoxia approached her step by step, trembling as she pulled her into her arms. Her voice was weary and hoarse. "Xiao Ai, don't leave me."

Hot tears ran down Ai Yichi's neck and seeped straight into her heart.

Ai Yichi was unmoved. She even wanted to laugh. Frowning, she said coldly, "Shen Zhaoxia, just seeing you makes me sick."

Core theme: Work hard, love life, learn to be content, and cherish the good things around you. Happiness is within reach.
