Sweet and Salty

Original title: You're the Sweetness I Can't Give Up. Currently revising...

1. Min Xiaolai noticed that Teng Jinxi had been much friendlier to her since returning from abroad.

At first, she was glad the ice between them was melting. But Teng Jinxi didn't just care about her health and career, he even started asking about her love life!

Min Xiaolai: If you keep this up, I'll start to think... you kind of like me.

Teng Jinxi, expression calm: You're wrong.

Just as Min Xiaolai began to think she was imagining things, Teng Jinxi gazed at her intently and lowered his head toward her. You're wrong... It's much more than a little.

He had fallen for her at some point in the years gone by. As time passed, that feeling took root and blossomed, until even he surrendered to it.

2. Teng Jinxi doesn't like sweets.

The first time he saw Min Xiaolai, the new girl in the house, smile sweetly, he found it cloying.

He never expected to become more and more addicted to that sweetness. Then he came to his senses and fled abroad.

He thought he no longer remembered that sweetness, so he came back. He never expected that the moment he saw her, the sweet, cloying feeling in his heart called love would return, and that he would find it harder and harder to suppress his longing. But when he finally confessed, Min Xiaolai stared at him in alarm. "What kind of new trick is this?"

But because of his earlier antics, Min Xiaolai kept her distance. And so Teng Jinxi began his long road to winning his wife back.

I'm terrible at writing blurbs =.=

Content warnings: 1. The male and female leads are both dazzlingly attractive. The guy is a real jerk, and the story is a bit melodramatic.

2. If I get anything wrong about the professional details, please point it out.
