As an extreme introvert, Yao Jingjing sticks to the same routine every day.

Stay home, stay home, and stay home some more.

Then one day, readers criticized the romantic development in her new story.

Yao Jingjing, a popular author of historical political intrigue, was flamed online and sent straight to the trending topics.

So Yao Jingjing decided to step out of her comfort zone and break free of her constraints.

Dating, dating, and more dating.

On her first blind date, the man across from her looked incredibly wealthy and refined.

Yao Jingjing nervously put away the dating contract in her hand.

Then she fled.

He looked like a man with a lavish lifestyle, someone she couldn't afford to get involved with.

On her second blind date, the man across from her looked plain, but had a handsome face that seemed somehow familiar.

Yao Jingjing thought it over for a while, then put away the dating contract in her hand.

She stood up and said goodbye.

He looked like a man surrounded by admirers, someone she couldn't afford to get involved with.

On her third blind date, the man across from her looked somewhat exasperated.

Before Yao Jingjing could say a word, he quickly said, "My life is simple, my contract fee is low, I have little romantic experience, and I don't attract many admirers."

Yao Jingjing: "..."

During the contract, they would talk about love, but keep their hearts out of it.

The day before the contract ended, they enjoyed the moonlit night, shared drinks, and talked about their dreams.

The next morning, when Yao Jingjing woke up, she found herself lying in bed with her hair in disarray.

She glanced at Jiang Yanzhou, standing across from her, fully dressed.

Yao Jingjing sighed with relief. "Nothing happened last night, right?"

Jiang Yanzhou looked at her calmly. "Nothing happened. You just cried and begged me not to leave."

Yao Jingjing: "Then..."

Jiang Yanzhou: "So I reluctantly stayed with you all night."

Yao Jingjing: "..."

Synopsis:

The first time Chu Xia met Lin Yang, she thought he was a warmhearted guy who would never turn down a girl's request.

But after class, she saw the so-called "warmhearted guy" in her eyes coldly toss into the trash a love letter another girl had given him.

Chu Xia: "???"

The second time Chu Xia met Lin Yang, the boy was wearing a school uniform washed so pale it had faded. She felt sorry for him and decided she'd cover his meals from then on.

But one day, she saw Lin Yang step out of a stretch limousine. The butler behind him respectfully handed him a lunchbox. "Young Master, here's your lunch."

Chu Xia: "..."

The third time Chu Xia met Lin Yang, a group of hooligans had cornered him at the entrance to an alley. The boy coldly pulled out several hundred-yuan bills and handed them to the person in front of him.

Chu Xia's sense of justice flared. She grabbed a stick and rushed over. Just as the other person's fist was about to land on her, everything suddenly became a blur. By the time she realized what had happened, Lin Yang was standing with contempt over the hooligan, one foot pinning him down. "Get lost," he said coldly.

Chu Xia: "???..."

Lin Yang felt that life had no meaning. After arguing with his parents, he got on a bus by himself.

Suddenly, a head poked over from the seat beside him. The girl asked what she should do about her bloated stomach.

Later, he took off his headphones and put them on the ears of "that strange girl."

His meals were strictly managed by the butler, so he rarely ate in the school cafeteria.

But one day, "that somewhat familiar girl" suddenly put a prepared meal on his desk and said, "Lin Yang, from now on, I've got your back. Just tell me whatever you want to eat."

After that, all kinds of snacks would regularly appear on his desk.

Lin Yang hated violence, so when hooligans surrounded him, he usually paid them off to make them go away.

But that day, the girl named Chu Xia was clearly terrified, yet she stood in front of him holding a wooden stick and shouted, "Don't be afraid, Lin Yang. I'll protect you."

At that moment, he seemed to see a light shining from her.

Chu Xia thinks Lin Yang has been acting strangely lately.

Lin Yang, who used to ignore her, suddenly asked her to dinner.

After a few cups of milk tea, Chu Xia felt like she had reached the peak of her life.

But then the boy suddenly asked, "What kind of guy do you like?"

Chu Xia tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering seriously, "I like guys who get good grades."

Later, the boy who used to rank at the bottom of the whole school came to her with a perfect test paper and gently asked, "Chu Xia, I heard you like me?"

Chu Xia: "???"
