[Blurb]

Cold and defeated * clear and warm

1-

During the summer vacation of her sophomore year, her younger brother brought home a classmate from his high school tutoring sessions.

The boy was dressed all in black, with handsome, rugged features. Only his eyes were out of place: cold, dark, and utterly devoid of warmth as he looked at people.

Knowing about Lin Xiubai's family situation, Jiang Yilü took care of him in every possible way.

But the boy always remained distant and taciturn.

What she did not know was that

in the room on the other side of the wall,

on countless nights, Lin Xiubai gazed at the moon outside the window, holding her name on the tip of his tongue and silently repeating it, word by word, over and over.

2-

Lin Xiubai had never been a good person: selfish, cold, and tainted, struggling in the darkness of endless depravity.

But on that breezy, gentle evening when he happened to see her, his imprisoned soul finally glimpsed the light of day.

Long before that, from the very moment he saw her, he had already fallen beyond his control.

3-

Lin Xiubai had never believed in gods or Buddhas, but that winter, in the main hall of the Zen temple,

he pressed his palms together, knelt, and bowed, offering heartfelt thanks to the gods and Buddhas filling the hall. In the lonely twenty-some years of his fractured, twisted life, they had let him meet the one person he would love for the rest of his life.

[Blurb for Please! Fall in Love]

Sweet, openhearted straight-shooter & cold, cunning rascal

1-

The year Xu Weixing entered Xinhe University, she was seventeen. On her first day, she saw a boy.

White shirt, black pants, collar slightly rumpled, revealing a glimpse of his pale collarbones. He stood there with a languid air.

Someone beside him was talking. He lowered his head slightly to listen, then suddenly lifted his eyes, raised an eyebrow, and looked over.

Their eyes met for just an instant, and Xu Weixing's heart sank.

Later, she learned from her roommate that his name was Jiang Shengchuan.

A champion at a young age, the pride of Xinhe.

2-

“Hard to win over” was a label attached to Jiang Shengchuan, and Xu Weixing agreed wholeheartedly.

But on Christmas Day, Jiang Shengchuan took the cigarette from between his teeth. His gaze swept over the gift box in Xu Weixing's arms, which she had not had a chance to refuse. The corner of his mouth lifted in a half-smile. “Popular, aren't you?”

3-

Later, one day when they were already together, they went to a gathering with friends.

Someone asked Xu Weixing, full of curiosity, what she had done to win over Xinhe's aloof campus beauty.

Xu Weixing blinked and answered, not entirely sure herself, “Maybe... he likes a more direct approach?”

A laugh unexpectedly fell beside her ear as soon as she finished speaking.

Jiang Shengchuan leaned back on the sofa, lazily lifting his eyelids to look at her. His voice was amused, his meaning unclear. “I do like it.”

Xu Weixing: “?”

Wasn't that what happened?

#How else could you explain the way you pursued me, other than that I willingly took the bait?#
