A Heartfelt Confession

[Please add my next novel, The Honeymoon Phase, to your collection.]

Meng Ange likes He Zhun, the kind of like she can only hide away in her heart.

She once thought she'd never be able to tell him how she felt.

On He Zhun's birthday, people egg her on to confess. He Zhun lifts the corner of his mouth in a carefree smile. "You like me?"

Meng Ange doesn't dare say a word. She secretly grumbles to herself: Yes, I do like you. If I said it out loud, you'd be shocked.

Later, she visits He Zhun at his school, and he takes her out for hot pot.

On the way back, they pass a couple holding hands. As Meng Ange watches them, her cheeks suddenly turn red.

"Tsk." He Zhun puts an arm around her shoulders, leans in to kiss her, then asks when he pulls away, "Still jealous?"

Meng Ange: !!!

He Zhun: "Then I'll kiss you again."

You are the joy of my youth, and the greatest gift the selfless years have given me.

You are the boy I love.

Next novel: The Honeymoon Phase

My boyfriend's mother gave me five million to leave her son, so I ran away while pregnant.

Five years later, Wei Chining says earnestly to Wei Wei, "Sweetie, it's not that I don't want you to find your dad, but think about it. Every time we meet, Grandma has to give us five million. If it happens too many times, Grandma will get pretty stressed out."

Little Wei Wei looks up at her, bewildered. "Oh..."

Everyone in H City knows the Ji and Wei families can't stand each other. They live just across the street, with the Ji family calling the Wei family pretentious snobs and the Wei family spitting that the Ji family reeks of money.

Ji Yuan'an and Wei Chining grow up together in this powder-keg atmosphere.

One night, while doing homework, Wei Chining's window gets pelted with pebbles. Annoyed, she opens it and sees Ji Yuan'an across the street, wildly gesturing as he confesses his love.

"Ningning, I like you. Let's be together!"

"Are you crazy?" Wei Chining slams the window shut.

Two years later, their relationship is exposed. Ji Yuan'an's family sends him abroad overnight. Wei Chining sits in an elegant cafe, listening to Ji's mother stir her coffee with an air of superiority.

"I've seen your type before. You just want money, don't you? I'll give you five million. Leave my son."

Wei Chining is at a loss. She touches her stomach, then vanishes without a trace the next day.

Far away overseas, Ji Yuan'an goes mad when he hears the news.

Five years later, Wei Chining leaves the flower shop after work. The night is dark. Cigarette butts litter the ground across the street, where a tall, grown man with bloodshot eyes blocks her way home and carefully gathers her into his arms. His voice is almost pleading. "Ningning, will you come home with me? I can protect you now."

We fell passionately in love in the height of summer, then parted in the depths of winter.

But spring had already planted its seed.

I'll always be infatuated with you.

Upcoming novel: Spoiled and Proud [Showbiz]

Lu Xijin, nicknamed Lu Timid, is so timid her courage is like that of a kitten born before its time. Yet her dream is to become a superstar known to everyone.

In her twenty years, the most outrageous thing Lu Timid has ever done is confess to the first person who passes the private room on her birthday, egged on by her troublesome friends and emboldened by alcohol.

When the door opens, it happens to be Gu Bingchao, the CEO everyone in the industry calls the Demon King.

Lu Timid's eyes turn red, and she stammers, trembling: "I... I like you."

Later, on countless quiet nights, Lu Xijin listens over and over, cheeks burning, as he whispers hoarsely in her ear: "Xijin, I like you too."

*

When Lu Xijin first debuts, she's gentle and mild-mannered, and people steal her opportunities right and left, both openly and behind her back.

After someone deliberately trips her up yet again, the furious Lu Timid is summoned to the CEO's office by his secretary.

Behind the desk, the impeccably dressed man leisurely loosens his tie. His gaze is deep, and his thin lips part.

"Lu Xijin, would you like me to teach you what it means to take advantage of being adored?"

You are my weakness, so I'll be your strongest armor.
