[The attempt at a humorous blurb]
Lin Jianbai returns from abroad after a long journey, planning to lie flat, use her PhD to land a teaching job, and fix up the little country house her grandmother left her. But her fussy next-door neighbor slips her a note. It's not a love letter, just a complaint that she's too noisy.
Lin Jianbai: Fine, my bad. I'll lie flat and be quiet, no problem.
The soundproofing panels are on their way, and she's trained her cat to meow only during the day. Everything is lovely, and Lin Jianbai is perfectly content.
Until--
Lin Jianbai discovers that the blind date she can't stand is her fussy neighbor, and the miserable crush she had in high school.
Lin Jianbai: … Out of sight, out of mind.
Ji Mingzhang: The place next door is a little too quiet.
Everyone else: I don't understand what a straight-A student means by lying flat. Stop making everyone else work harder and just get together already.
[Original blurb]
1
Ji Mingzhang is picky, fussy, and arrogant.
He would never be attracted to someone who was merely an accessory.
He falls for women with independent personalities.
Even if Lin Jianbai is not a woman (inspired by Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex; see the author's pinned comment from a few months ago for a detailed explanation),
he still admires her as a person.
2
Lin Jianbai hates things she can't control,
but Ji Mingzhang can be an exception.
A sweet, everyday romance about a couple getting back together after a partial breakup.
Also known as The Note That Brought Us Together and A Small-Town Romance.
"I want to live with you
in some small town,
to share endless dusks
and the ceaseless tolling of bells." -- Marina Tsvetaeva

Nice! I really like this kind of eloquent writing style. My whole body will calm down with the author's words. It's a pity that it's too short and I can't see enough!
Well, the portrayals of the male and female protagonists are very good. I really like the character of the female protagonist. It is very real and well portrayed. Through the text, it feels like I have seen a beautiful sister whom I admire and yearn for. But personally, I feel that the emotional line is a bit too fast? The male protagonist's attraction turns a bit hasty, and the female protagonist feels the same. Maybe this is an adult's love? I don't understand hahahaha
I really like this light style of writing! The heroine's character and experience really impressed me! Would it be better if there were more daily extras?
It's so well written, I read it in one sitting, but it's just too short. I hope there are extra chapters, and I want to see marriage and children.
Wow, I really like this kind of heroine
Please come to a few more extra episodes! The relationship between the male protagonist's sister and the female protagonist was mentioned at the beginning, but it was never mentioned later. I think the writing style is pretty good. The longer the text, the better! I'll wait for more updates now, thank you!
After reading it, I realized it was a short article. I haven't seen one this short in a long time. I feel like I can write more about it. Congratulations on the completion
I found out that I entered v, please do your best.
I like it so much! Are there any extras?
The writing style is lingering and relaxed, and it looks very nice. Doesn't it look like a big vest?
