Winter's Adorable

Everyone knew Lu Xing liked Zhou Qilin. She chose the science track in high school for him, changed her university application for him, and even used his initials for all her social media accounts.

Then news spread that Zhou Qilin had gone to the movies with the art department's campus beauty. Everyone who knew the story felt sorry for Lu Xing.

She didn't say a word. She simply took a pair of pliers, climbed to the top of the mountain, and decisively cut off the lock they'd once hung together outside a temple.

Then she made a new wish beside it:

May that jerk die, and may that show-off get lost.

Lu Xing first met Chen Qi on the subway. She forgot to turn off the shutter sound while secretly taking a photo, then fled the train under his scrutinizing gaze.

They met again at freshman military training. The handsome new junior quickly became a campus sensation and a popular name on the confession wall.

Remembering their awkward first encounter on the subway, Lu Xing tried to pretend she didn't know him. But as they passed each other on the field, he quietly said, "Senior, remember to turn off the shutter sound."

Later...

After a huge argument with her parents, Lu Xing wandered through the rain, dazed and lost, and happened upon a performance. The boy playing guitar onstage came down and handed her a rose.

"For the princess stranded in the rain."
