When summer vacation ended, the city library returned to its usual quiet.
As Dong Ning was slacking off as usual, she spotted a handsome guy sitting at a computer desk not far away.
At her coworkers' urging, Dong Ning took out her phone and went over to add him on WeChat.
"Hi, could I add you on WeChat..."
The rest of her words caught in her throat when the man turned around.
Staring at that face, both unfamiliar and familiar, Dong Ning awkwardly swallowed. Keeping a straight face, she said, "...Our library is giving away books. Follow our official WeChat account and you can get one for free."
The man before her gave a lazy, derisive snort. "This book wouldn't happen to be called A Guide to Saving Yourself After Hitting on Your Ex, would it?"
Dong Ning: "..."
So many years had passed, and he still had a mouth like it was coated in poison.

Once she reached the age to marry, her family's daily nagging about marriage became as punctual as meals.
To escape their pressure, Dong Ning simply lied and said she already had a boyfriend, then pinned an AI-generated couple photo to her Moments.
Just like that, they finally left her in peace.
Until the day torrential rain poured down. She was sheltering beneath the eaves when she opened her phone.
A laugh sounded beside her, and Dong Ning looked up.
In the misty rain, Ling Zhou looked at the AI-generated photo, which bore an uncanny resemblance to him, and chuckled.
"After all these years, you still can't forget me."
"Ex-girlfriend."
So who exactly can't forget whom?
