Growing in Reverse

(The novel is complete, and the full version is out. If you’ve read it, please leave a rating!) Original title: I Have a CEO Friend Xia Sheng and Yue Qin are the kind of couple who make people believe in love. They fell in love at first sight in their first year of high school, dated in college, got married after graduation, and Xia Sheng became pregnant in their first year of work. She gave birth to a son. When their son was one, he was diagnosed with mutism. Life was hard for the young couple, but they were still very happy. The company Yue Qin works for gets a new CEO, a rich second-generation heir who has no idea how ordinary people live. At the company’s annual dinner, employees are invited to bring their families. Because Yue Qin’s son doesn’t say a word of congratulations, the new CEO callously fires Yue Qin and declares that his mute son is bad for the company’s image. The moment Yue Qin gets home and sees his wife and child, he doesn’t mention being fired. He just rushes out to find another job. The next day, the new CEO gets into a drunk-driving accident and falls into a coma. When the new CEO opens his eyes, he sees the employee he fired the day before, looking at him with fatherly affection “Daddy’s good boy, Daddy has to go to work. Make sure you protect Mommy at home today, okay?” All he can do is babble and throw a tantrum. Little scene At first: Watching the young couple being lovey-dovey.

Is this woman trying to break up my family?” A story about a sweet, naive dad raised in a loving family, a strong-willed mom healed by her sweet, naive husband, their adorable little son, and their friend, an overbearing CEO: a bizarre family of four. Coming soon: The Person I Like Isn’t the Male Lead Also known as: The Female Lead and the Cold Male Lead’s Roommate Get Together Gu Nian is an ordinary girl. Her grades are always average, her family is neither rich nor poor, and she’s barely noticed at school. The only thing that stands out about her is that she’s pretty cute. Nobody understands how she has the nerve to like the school’s ice-cold heartthrob. The heartthrob never hangs out with anyone. As far as everyone else can tell, whenever Gu Nian goes over to talk to him, the only one who speaks to her is his roommate. One day, Gu Nian actually stops the heartthrob and hands him a love letter. Blushing, Gu Nian thinks about how the three of them have eaten together several times, but she’s forgotten to ask this guy’s name. Still, she steels herself and hands him the letter, quietly saying, “Could you give this to Shu Ge for me?” Blurb two When Gu Nian starts school, she falls in love at first sight with someone. He’s tall, funny, warm, and interesting. Everything about him is exactly her type, and she’s happy every minute she spends with him! But…he seems to think of her as just a friend, because whenever she asks him to hang out, he brings his roommate along. So she decides to confess. Gu Nian waits downstairs for ages, but he never comes down, so she can only hand her love letter to the quiet roommate of the person she likes and ask him to pass it along. After all, someone as quiet as him would never go around gossiping about her. Blurb three Li Jiashu likes a girl. Whenever he sees her, he can’t help trying to make her laugh.

Whenever she asks him out to eat, he tacitly brings along his quiet roommate, even though he and the roommate aren’t particularly close. Until the girl says she’s going to confess. Li Jiashu avoids her for a whole day, but in the end he still tells his roommate to go downstairs.
