Rekindled Love | Reunion After Years Apart
Gorgeous, aloof, and talented award-winning actress × A famous director who pretends to be a playboy but is truly devoted
Liang Wen and Ang De
are like the beginning and end of a Mobius strip, joined together by fate.
*
Liang Wen first met Ang De in France.
She was an exchange student, tutoring him in Chinese part-time.
The golden-haired, green-eyed young man was rebellious and wild, with the air of a spoiled rich kid.
The first Chinese sentence he learned was teasing and inquisitive:
"Do you have a crush on me, little teacher?"
*
Liang Wen met Ang De for the third time in China.
She was a newcomer award-winning actress, and a songbird trapped in a powerful man's cage.
Ang De had just won the Best Director award at the Berlin International Film Festival, emerging as the season's dark horse and ascending to the top of high society.
At the banquet, he raised his glass from afar to the powerful man beside Liang Wen. A simple band ring gleamed on his long, knuckled ring finger.
The powerful man gave a cold laugh and tightened his arm around Liang Wen's waist.
*
On her way to the restroom, Liang Wen was pulled into a corner.
Warm breath washed over her as he kissed her until she was dizzy.
"Are you crazy? What if he finds out?" Liang Wen said pointedly.
Ang De didn't care. He carefully wiped away her smudged lipstick.
He gently drew out the necklace at her throat. The same ring hung from it, and his smile grew even more brazen. He murmured in French:
"Then don't let him find out."
That night, the hashtag #LiangWenAngDe shot to the top of the trending list.
People dug up their past connection.
They had starred together in an obscure art-house film.
In the leaked stills, they looked like lovers, wearing matching simple band rings, fingers entwined as they kissed without a care for anyone watching.
That was the second time Liang Wen and Ang De met.
At the time, she had been temporarily exiled to France and longed for freedom.
So Ang De had warmly invited her, "Run away with me, little teacher."
The winds of youthful recklessness swept through the entire summer
and shook Liang Wen's heart.
They fell in love in a place no one knew about.
Pretending became real, and they could never find their way back to shore.

[Upcoming Novel] "A Taste for Food and Sleep"
Reunion After Years Apart | Unrequited Love Comes True
Sharp-tongued, enchanting food critic × Cold, calculating head chef
Yu Weitong and Chi Jincheng
were made for each other.
*
Yu Weitong writes scathing reviews beneath her dazzling beauty.
Every restaurant in Manhattan fears her, the food critic.
Chi Jincheng devotes himself to cooking and is the most promising young chef around.
He is aloof and restrained, never pulls his punches, and refuses to give interviews.
But Yu Weitong is determined to meet Chi Jincheng.
So she disguises herself and applies for a job at his restaurant.
*
One morning, some time later,
Yu Weitong reached for the clothes scattered on the floor.
The man wrapped an arm around her slender waist and pulled her back into bed.
"Sleep a little longer. I'll give you the day off," he said in a low, husky voice.
Yu Weitong tapped his lower lip, grinning slyly.
"Chef Chi, are you trying to persuade your subordinate to skip work on purpose?"
Chi Jincheng narrowed his eyes and caught her fingertip between his lips.
"What's the first thing I taught you to say?"
"Yes, chef."
A fierce, forceful kiss landed at once.
*
She got her interview, and she got the man, too.
Yu Weitong thought she'd gotten the better deal.
But she couldn't shake the feeling that she had walked right into a trap.
*
Chi Jincheng had been plotting for a long time,
all so he could lure "Yu" into his trap.
An old, brief review
might have been no more than an offhand piece of writing to Yu Weitong,
but to Chi Jincheng, it was the most precious thing in his life.
It led him to her.
[Reader's Guide]
One-on-one romance, both leads' first relationships, happy ending.
Theme: I want to tell the story of a girl who rises above adversity and becomes self-reliant and strong.
Mrs. Wen is miserable. Can Wen's body be restored in the future? I feel that the root cause of the disease will fall after being raised. However, it doesn't matter who caused it, I really can't bear it, tsk... The person who is held in the heart of Ang De, if Ang De sees it in the future, wouldn't he be heartbroken? The man surnamed Cheng deserves it. In the end, he will activate the "Wife Chasing Crematorium" to chase his wife? He's not married to Wen, so how can he pursue his wife? Even if he "chases his wife", he still can't catch her. Not only can't she catch her, but she doesn't care about him at all.
I'm so angry that I can't stand it anymore! I can't stand it anymore! I can't stand it anymore! I can't stand it anymore!
Mr. Xu, wow, we finally did something good.
I want to trample Cheng under my feet
Here I come!! After reading it, I can only say that the person named Cheng is really disgusting.
"Awakening from Hungry" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ Is it disgusting?
Sure enough, like father, like son (referring to the man named Cheng), the son is even better than his father, tsk tsk.
I really cried. I feel that everyone is pitiful. The source is this scumbag. Angry, angry, angry, angry, angry, angry.
Scumbag. Cheng's mentality must be related to this scumbag. It pisses me off to death.
Why am I crying? Why would anyone fall in love with Cheng? Let Wen escape from Cheng. I want Onder.
