My next book is "When the Pomelos Ripen." Please add it to your reading list.

Life is short, so enjoy yourself while you can.

Yan An couldn't agree more, so she decides to find some fun on this lonely trip.

For example, the skydiving instructor sitting right beside her in the cramped cabin.

Handsome face, long legs, sexy and restrained.

What a beautiful day, with spring in the air.

"Hey, handsome, I'm entrusting you with my life. Give me your number, okay?"

A ray of sunlight slips in. Shan Yi sits up, carefree, dashing, and wild.

The room is utterly quiet, so quiet it seems devoid of life.

The phone by his pillow vibrates: An emergency came up, so I had to head back home first. Thanks for taking care of me this past week. Maybe we'll meet again someday! Bye, handsome.

Shan Yi smiles. The early morning sun holds not a trace of warmth.

Beitong Airlines welcomes its latest batch of trainee pilots.

Yan An has been assigned to a captain said to be the most handsome in all of civil aviation. Hearing footsteps approach outside, she cranes her neck mischievously. A moment later, she freezes in shock.

The man wears a uniform, broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, with a tall, straight build and overwhelming masculine charm.

Their eyes meet. His dark eyes are sharp and deep, his thin lips curled in an inscrutable smile. A hundred-euro note drifts onto the table. "Returning this to its rightful owner."

His voice is icy. "My rates are much higher than this."

Looks-obsessed Yan: Damn, I went wild just this once, and now I've ruined my whole future!

A looks-obsessed young woman X a reserved older man

* The male lead's surname is Shan, pronounced shan.

* I recommend my friend's book "Delayed Heartbeats" by Mingyue Shanshan: a prickly rose X a secretly passionate schemer. It's worth letting it build up!

Xu Ke never imagined that six years later, she'd see Chen Ding again under these circumstances.

In the ECG room, the nurse has just drawn the curtain around the examination area when a cool, detached voice sounds from outside: "Lift your top, loosen your bra, take off your shoes, and expose your ankles and wrists."

Xu Ke, who had been yawning, nearly bites her tongue in half.

Six years ago, Xu Ke slept with Chen Ding.

Six years later, he's still her attending physician.

What a mess...

A wild horse X the one holding the reins

Su You is known in her circle for her laid-back attitude.

At school, she never cared about rankings. As an adult, she never pined for love. Once she started working, money didn't matter to her.

Most guys who pursued Su You soon gave up. A woman so unmoved by anything and wanting nothing was like an unripe pomelo: sour and bitter, with no flavor to speak of.

But lately, this woman who wanted nothing has been thinking about getting married.

Su You picks a man through a matchmaking agency. He is impeccably dressed, handsome, humble, and reserved, but distant, like a man with little interest in romance.

Su You thinks he's quite suitable. He looks respectable.

At the end of the date, the man asks, "What do you want in a partner?"

Su You: "Someone respectable who's open to getting married on a whim."

Man: "What do you mean by getting married on a whim?"

Su You: "The kind where we get married first, then develop feelings."

Su You hears that the new boss parachuting in today is from headquarters, with powerful connections and a position high above the rest. He's been sent to stamp out the company's culture of coasting through work.

Word from upstairs is that he's decisive, highly capable, and strictly businesslike, with no room for sentiment. The first thing the new boss plans to do is fire a batch of people.

Su You, a lazy employee who coasts through work, frowns.

"Mr. Zhou, I'll show you to your office."

Speak of the devil. Like everyone else, Su You turns around curiously.

The man's gaze passes over the crowd and lands on her. It lingers for only an instant before he looks away. Su You is stunned.

Su You recalls taking a red-background wedding photo with him yesterday. The photographer asked the groom to smile, and the resulting photo showed the man smiling warmly, like some handsome boy from everyone's school days whose face had faded from memory.

Su You frowns. This impulsive marriage really was a bad idea.

Zhou Shengye is a master strategist.

He uses convenience as bait, drives his prey forward, and lets the mantis catch the cicada while he waits behind it.

He tasted the pomelo hanging high in the tree seven years ago, when it was still sour. Now, at last, the pomelo has ripened.
