Life with a Pianist

Since neither of us can have the one we love, why not join forces and make a life together?

A carefree, flirtatious pianist who has "turned over a new leaf" X a sweet, tidy scientist who knows how to run a household

[One]

Zhou Xiao and Qian Sen are both unable to be with the people they love, and both are trying to escape the whirlpool of loneliness.

So he finds her.

Beneath the sparkling lights above the restaurant, his slightly narrow, flirtatious eyes always look nonchalant. He leans close to her, his voice teasing.

"Zhou Xiao, how about we team up and share a life together?"

[Two]

Between the petty squabbles and the minutiae of everyday life, their partnership brings them a little warmth and a sense of stability.

They both think this is how their days will go from then on, but the people they cannot have come back to find them.

So they part on good terms.

Then one day, Qian Sen, smelling faintly of alcohol, blocks Zhou Xiao in the stairwell. His tall frame holds her close, his hot breath brushing her neck.

The man known as the "Piano God" has completely lost the divine bearing he carries onstage. He bends down, burying his face in the crook of her neck, and speaks in a pitiful voice.

"Xiaoxiao, you still haven't given me the chocolates from my last few performances."

The stairwell is dim, but Zhou Xiao's eyes are bright. She turns her head slightly and presses her lips to Qian Sen's cheek.

"You idiot."

They're both idiots. After wandering in circles for so long, they finally understand what they truly want.

"If I'm with you, even the petty details of everyday life feel like a blessing."

Contemporary romance coming soon: Missing Love

Qiao Baiji secretly loved Qin Shangzhi for nine years and was married to him by contract for seven.

When he plays the violin, he seems ethereal, like an immortal. His profile is cool and handsome, as bright and pure as the moon in the sky.

Everything about him is perfect. The only problem is that he doesn't love her.

Until a car accident.

*

After the accident, Qiao Baiji loses ten years of memories. She forgets everything, cheerfully oblivious, and rubs her hands together as she gets ready to ask Qin Shangzhi for a divorce.

Since their marriage is only a contract, Qin Shangzhi will surely be happy to agree, and then they can each go find someone new!

But the man who was once cool and gentle clutches a document, veins standing out on the back of his hand, and asks her in near despair:

"Have you really loved him for that long?"

Qiao Baiji looks confused. Who?

Qin Shangzhi, who has spent years imagining a love rival for himself: ?

-

I once thought it was all one-sided.

Only later did I learn you had loved me for years, too.

"A long-awaited, mutual love story."
