Wait Right Here for Me

[Blurb One]: All of Xu Yuan's friends know she likes Tao Zhichu. Unfortunately, her love is unrequited. Then one day, out of nowhere, the girl posted a photo of herself kissing Han Xu on her WeChat Moments, leaving everyone stunned. Her friends' feed exploded: The hot-tempered princess and the tyrannosaurus who fight every time they meet? No way! Xu Yuan thumped her chest. "Exactly! How could that happen?! My face really hurts!" Han Xu smiled gently. "Be good." Tao Zhichu, completely baffled: "I thought you said you loved me. Where's my kiss?" [Blurb Two]: At a get-together, a friend asked Han Xu, "I heard Xu Yuan confessed to Tao Zhichu and got rejected again?" He curled his lips into a smile. "Her? She's bossy, selfish, and bad-tempered. Tao Zhichu would have to be blind to like her." The friend thought, That's true. He and Xu Yuan have always been at each other's throats. It would be a miracle to hear him say anything nice about her. Then, in less than a month, Han Xu proved beyond a doubt what it meant to be "blind." The friend: "Ha." P.S. This is a story about giving each other a taste of our own medicine, then falling in love anyway. * Author's collection: Passing Years Weibo: Mo Momo Loves Orange Juice. ~﹡~﹡~﹡ [New manuscript: You're Sweeter Than Time, by Cheng Momo]﹡~﹡~﹡~﹡~﹡~*~﹡~﹡~﹡~ [Blurb]: When news broke that the Shi family would be forming a marriage alliance with the Xu family, the whole social scene was shaken. A friend teased Shi Yu, "The Xu family's princess is a master of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. So many people envy you." Shi Yu glanced at the little shadow who had been following him around every day lately and replied nonchalantly, "You like her? You can have her." The clingy little rabbit was delicate and prone to tears. He couldn't wait to call off their childhood engagement. The day the engagement was called off, just as he wished, Shi Yu went out drinking with his buddies to celebrate. He unexpectedly ran into Xu Anlan, who seemed to be celebrating too. His "fragile and delicate" former fiancee raised a bottle and laughed brightly and boldly with her companions. "I'm finally free of that cold, aloof beauty. All those years pretending to be Lin Daiyu weren't for nothing." Shi Yu: ... The day after their relationship was completely over, Shi Yu attended a three-party meeting as usual. He'd heard the other party's representative was forceful and sharp, and, as his subordinate put it, "difficult to handle." When he saw the person across the conference table, he paused. Xu, the princess he'd remembered as a gentle, demure young lady, wore a business suit and had a sharp gaze. She smiled faintly at him. "President Shi, I look forward to working with you." Shi Yu: ... Later, Shi Yu followed Xu Anlan to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Standing at the highest point, 4,680 meters above sea level, he looked at her. "I've been seriously pursuing you for so long. What do you think?" ~﹡~﹡~﹡ [Friend's new novel: The Minister Beneath Her Skirts, by Meng Xiao'er]﹡~﹡~﹡~﹡~﹡~*~﹡~﹡~﹡~ [Blurb]: Shen Tang decided to end things with Jiang Chengyu for good. She packed up everything she had left at his villa and took it away. Jiang Chengyu: "What are you making a fuss about this time?" Shen Tang blew on the cigarette between his fingers. The smoke drifted away, and she smiled. "I'm not making a fuss. I just want to end this kind of relationship." Jiang Chengyu looked at her. "Then what kind of relationship do you want?" Shen Tang touched up her makeup in the vanity mirror. "A legally married couple. If one day you come begging me to marry you, maybe I'll consider it." Jiang Chengyu suddenly laughed. He was supposed to beg her to marry him? She certainly had a lot of nerve. He didn't believe in marriage, and he wasn't going to marry anyone. -- When their friends heard that Shen Tang and Jiang Chengyu had fallen out, they felt sorry for her. "It's incredibly hard to meet someone from Jiang Chengyu's circle, and he's been so good to you. How could you give him up?" Shen Tang said nothing. It was precisely because it was so difficult, like a mirage, and because he would never give her marriage, that she had to ask herself: now that she had fallen in love with him and was getting in too deep, why trap herself? -- A year after they had ended things for good, Shen Tang received a call from Jiang Chengyu on her birthday. Jiang Chengyu was willing to bend. "Tangtang, marry me." Shen Tang: "Sure. Wait a moment. So many people are pursuing me lately. Let me see where you are in line." She paused for several seconds. "President Jiang, you're number 250. Remember your number. I'll let you know when it's your turn." ~﹡~﹡~﹡ [Friend's new novel: Stars by My Side, by Su Muyou]﹡~﹡~﹡~﹡~﹡~*~﹡~﹡~﹡~ [Blurb]: Zhou Mu has a specific type of social anxiety.
