[This novel has been carefully revised. Stolen copies are incomplete, so please don't leave comments on pirated sites.] * Mutual pining, marriage first and love later, the male lead becomes the other man for love (not really) * Top student teacher x roguish pilot Ji Fei was a notorious troublemaker in high school, never studying and always raising hell. When he was seventeen, his father sent him away to straighten him out. He vanished for years without a word. Cheng Jianyan wrote him quite a few letters, but they all disappeared into the void without a single reply. Then again, it wasn't surprising. She was just one of countless high school classmates who had secretly liked this rascal. Apart from explaining a few problems to him as class monitor, there was nothing special about her. It made sense that Ji Fei wouldn't remember her. Ten years passed in a flash. Cheng Jianyan had started discussing marriage with the man her family had introduced her to, preparing to step into the graveyard of marriage, when the delinquent who had set her hormones stirring in her youth made a forceful return. He'd barely returned when he cornered Cheng Jianyan at a class reunion. After all these years, seeing Ji Fei move and speak again still made her feel as if the sun were shining just right. In the dim light, Cheng Jianyan was trapped between his arm and the wall. Their breaths mingled, and the air, scented with wine, was thick with tension. Ji Fei asked hoarsely, "You're really going to marry someone else?" Cheng Jianyan: "...We already bought the house." "Cheng Jianyan!" So he'd struggled and scraped his way through all those years just to make something of himself, only to watch her marry someone else? In a fit of rage, Ji Fei decided to kick her blind date out of the way and take his place. For some inexplicable reason, Cheng Jianyan got a phone call from her boyfriend breaking up with her. Her boyfriend's voice was hesitant, but his meaning was clear: "Jianyan, I'm sorry, but I don't dare cross the young master of the Ji family either." Fine. She understood what was going on now. Cheng Jianyan went to confront him, only to find him waiting with his household registration book already in hand. "Isn't your family pressuring you to find someone to marry?" Ji Fei said, a cigarette between his teeth, grinning with carefree confidence. "I'm handsome, healthy, and unattached, and I own ten homes in Jingbei." "So, do I qualify?" #The male lead is dog-like, a human puppy #Both leads are each other's first love, and both are virgins Companion novel, After the Fever, is complete: [Marriage first, love later / Second male lead gets the girl] Zheng Shuxia had known Song Lin for as long as she could remember. He was the wonderful older boy next door, outstanding in every way, from academics to sports and the arts. He was also the moonlight she had loved since childhood, someone she could admire but never reach. For ten whole years, Zheng Shuxia did everything she could to get closer to Song Lin, studying hard enough to get into flight school. She became a rare and precious female pilot, but she still couldn't find her way into Song Lin's heart. Song Lin always had a girlfriend, one after another. As a promising young captain, he was never short of admirers. When Zheng Shuxia finally gathered the courage to confess, he only looked surprised for a moment before smiling and saying, "I'm sorry, Shuxia. I only think of you as a little sister." Zheng Shuxia had tried and confessed. By now, she'd learned how to write the word "give up." She burned every memory of her crush on Song Lin, then called Song Lin's good friend Lin Yuxiao. "Brother Xiao, do you still like me?" Zheng Shuxia asked softly. "If you do, I'll marry you." She knew Lin Yuxiao had always liked her, just as she had always liked Song Lin. "Zheng Shuxia, have you thought this through?" The man on the other end of the phone chuckled, his voice tinged with nonchalance. "I'm not Song Lin's safe haven." "If you marry me, there's no getting divorced." "Yes," Zheng Shuxia answered firmly. "I've thought it through." In the hottest part of summer, Zheng Shuxia and Lin Yuxiao got their marriage certificates. The day they announced their marriage on social media, Song Lin got dead drunk. He went to the girl's dormitory and pounded on the door, shouting for her to come out. But the person who came out was Lin Yuxiao. His elegant features were unmistakably hungry, and the corners of his red eyes glistened with satisfaction. "Shuxia is exhausted," Lin Yuxiao said with a smile, flicking ash from his long fingers. "Should I call her out?" - When flying a plane, veering off course is terrifying. But Zheng Shuxia gradually changing course toward Lin Yuxiao was the boldest and best decision she ever made. *Both leads are virgins, happy ending *Five-year age gap.
