[Coming next: "Liking You Without Permission"]
[Blurb one]
The year Yu Wan turned eight, she got into the fiercest fight of her life.
She glared with round eyes, holding a filthy sandal in her chubby little hand.
Someone had poked a red mark into her fair little head. Pouting, little Yu Wan listened to Zhou Yu threaten her and kept all her tears bottled up, head hanging low.
She trudged home slowly, like a dejected little chick after a defeat.

The year she turned twenty-five, at Yu Wan's blind date dinner,
Zhou Yu sat with the woman's party, narrowed his eyes as he sized up the man across from him, and expressionlessly shook the ash from his cigarette.
Five minutes later, someone dragged Yu Wan away by the ear.
A cool breeze swept through the hallway.
Zhou Yu looked down at her for a long while, then scoffed. "Is this really the best you can do?"
"In that case..." The man's tone suddenly changed as he gripped her shoulders.
His voice went hoarse. "Can I cut in line first?"
[Blurb two]
Nobody knew
that in that cicada-filled mulberry grove when they were ten,
Zhou Yu had already wanted to trick her into coming home with him.

Love is like multiplication.
If one side becomes zero,
it's zero forever.
If I'm not in your eyes,
I don't even have the courage to speak.
