The Wind That Travels Eight Thousand Miles

Come check out my new story and upcoming releases~

Blurb:

Yu Heng followed her childhood friend Lu Xun to teach in a mountainous region for four years.

She thought they had a bright future together, but a tearful phone call from the childhood playmate who had burst into his life years ago easily shattered her illusions.

Loving him was exhausting, so Yu Heng chose to let go.

Back in college, the aloof and distant upperclassman Shi Yuan helped her find a school for a student from the impoverished mountain region.

Shi Yuan: What grade should the student be in? Is there a school you'd like them to attend?

Was he really letting her pick any school?

Shi Yuan: Yu Heng, if you ask someone for help, you should treat them to a meal. That's basic social etiquette.

One meal became two, then two became four?!

She grew increasingly suspicious that this cold-hearted academic genius had feelings for her.

Little by little, she realized that all his gentleness and patience were reserved for her alone.

Shi Yuan had quietly loved Yu Heng for years. He couldn't say it before, and later he didn't dare.

He couldn't understand how the person he loved so much could mean nothing to Lu Xun.

Things were different now. He shouldn't leave the person he wanted to protect in someone else's hands.

His glass marble and his warm light belonged in his hands, held tight just like in his dreams.

The title was inspired by a collection of books by "Uncle Monaluo." The original line reads: "I like you, like the wind that traveled eight thousand miles, never asking when it would return."

Thanks to Wuyan Bao for the addition.

* The female and male leads are both each other's first.

* The male lead seems aloof and indifferent on the surface, but... well, he really is.

* But he's incredibly gentle with the female lead, and has had a crush on her for years.

Theme: Learn to love yourself before loving someone else.
