[Secret Crush + Rekindled Romance]
A summer night, hot wind, a noisy alley entrance.
A young man in a white T-shirt and black pants leans casually against a black SUV.
This isn't the first time Tan Qing has seen Chen Jingchi, but it's the first time she's told him her name.
"Tan, as in 'a fantastic tale'?" he asks.
Tan Qing nods.
To her, Chen Jingchi really is like a fantastic tale, giving her a chance to get close to him for the first time on an ordinary night like this.
Slowly, her feelings become tangled like threads, and step by step, she turns that fantastic tale into something within reach.
But a thread pulled too far will eventually snap.
An ignored "breakup text" sends her fleeing to a foreign land.
[2]
Seven years later, Tan Qing joins a film crew as an original screenwriter.
At a group dinner, a nosy colleague asks about "her relationship with Chen Jingchi."
Her gaze passes over the man in the corner. She shakes her head indifferently. "We aren't close."
After a late-night drinking session, she is the last to leave the private room. Suddenly, a cold hand grips her wrist and pulls her into the fire escape behind her.
"We aren't close?" Chen Jingchi stares down at her.
Tan Qing coolly reminds him, "Director Chen, I'm really not interested in you anymore. If you keep this up, I'll call the police."
"Is that so?"
In the dim light, the man smiles nonchalantly, his warm breath brushing her ear. "Tan Qing, did you know that whenever you lie, you look down?"
[Reader's Guide]
1. The first half is set at school, the second half is an urban reunion. A slow burn.
2. This is a story about a secret crush, but the male lead isn't a playboy. He'd never dated before falling for the female lead, and during the seven years she was away, he had no rumored girlfriends either. He comes from a good family, has a close relationship with them, and his family are all lovely people. The story leans more toward the male lead saving the female lead. If you're looking for a playboy who turns over a new leaf, you've come to the wrong place, this isn't that kind of story.
3. There are hidden reasons behind the leads' breakup, and their relationship isn't particularly angsty.
Lastly, the text has been revised, and the official edition includes bonus stories. Please support the official release.
Theme: Love helps people become better and braver.
Planted in your heart This is a book recommended by a friend. I clicked on Jinjiang that day and found that it was in my collection. I was somewhat surprised. I read this book on March 20, and it probably wasn't finished yet. Maybe out of curiosity, I skipped a little while reading the book. When I saw Tan Qing lying in a pool of blood, I cried and shed tears for her bravery and strength. At that moment, I was thinking about what I would do if I were her, timid, cowardly, and afraid to resist. Chen Jingchi's phone number couldn't be reached. I can't imagine how desperate Tan Qing was, who was still underage at the time, so much so that she inserted a knife into her abdomen, gambling with her life. At that time, she was still thinking about Chen Jingchi. This is her youth, after so many years, the moment it took off, it also came to an end. I admit that as a reader, I blame him. Seven years is a long time. When we meet again, it must be tolerance and restraint between lovers. But Chen Jingchi couldn't wait any longer. She was the lover he had been waiting for for seven years. After so many years, she disappeared without even receiving a call. How much pressure is placed on him? Think about it day and night. When I saw Tan Qing smoking, to be honest, I was probably similar to Chen Jingchi. I was surprised and unbelievable, but maybe that knife was the foreshadowing. But she is also happy because she is her, Tan Qing. Seven years of blank space, this may be the real reason for Chen Jingchi to wake up. At that moment, he should be confused and at a loss. During those seven years, he was not in her life. He wanted to test it, but seven years was too long, and sometimes he would be unable to bear it. As the days passed, when they were together again, the scar on her lower abdomen would be seen sooner or later. It was destined to happen. She really didn't want him to worry, he loved her so much. But what Chen Jingchi has to know in the end is how distressed he will be when he knows the truth. It will be heartbreaking. Whoever it is, he might collapse. That is what your lover has experienced. However, you could have helped her, but you were not there. You were not there when she needed you most. Chen Jingchi can also understand how desperate she was at that time. It's really ridiculous. Fortunately, they still have so many years to make amends, but those seven years will be a pity after all. When that person kidnapped them again, they did not hesitate. There is only one lover in your eyes, and you will do everything you can to prevent him/her from getting hurt. Fortunately, they are all okay and the bad guys were brought to justice. That book "Roseriver" made a deep impression on me, and the title is very thought-provoking. It was Chen Jingchi who she had been thinking about since she was young. It is "warm, bright, and never fades." They indulged in the river of roses, slowly falling in love, loving this world and loving each other. Tai Rong is a character that I find amazing. He has a good personality, cheerful, sincere, enthusiastic and bright. Do what you like without regrets, dare to venture, dare to fight, dare to love and dare to hate. Pan Xiao, go discover those times that you have never noticed. Ban Jiayu, keep your original intention forever, and may you always be under the sun. Summer is here, and their story is not over yet. I just wish them peace, joy, and no worries. 11

Long time no see🥰🥰🥰!!! I suddenly logged into the Jinjiang account and found the book I subscribed to a few years ago. I stayed with this book from serialization to completion🥰🥰🥰 and also created super chapters and so on. I am super, super, super happy to see that this book has been read by more people!! I'm also very happy that you are still writing!! ☺️☺️☺️Please keep writing, baby!! 🤷🤷
Really good looking. The characters are flesh and blood. But there are some parts that I don't quite understand, such as what Lao Wang and his wife said in the car about secret love, and what Harry Potter said. Please explain.
