Love Me a Little Today, Too

1.

In her second year of high school, Ruan Yu fell for Shen Yuhuai, who was indebted to her mother.

She had planned to love him from afar in silence, but after her friends got her drunk and egged her on, she hooked an arm around his waist and boldly confessed her feelings. Shen Yuhuai merely lifted his eyelids and said, "Cut it out."

Heartbroken, Ruan Yu left without a word.

The night she returned to the country, a friend made a grand declaration of love at their class reunion. Ruan Yu smiled, her eyes crinkling, only to have a man's jacket dropped over her head as soon as she turned around.

Shen Yuhuai caught her wrist and pulled her into his arms, his breath brushing her ear. "You like grand gestures?"

Shen Yuhuai tried every trick in the book to win her back. After months of flirting openly and dropping hints with no response from Ruan Yu, he decided to take matters into his own hands.

But the next morning, when he woke with a start, the space beside him was empty once again.

Between classes, the lecture hall at S University buzzed with voices. A man dressed in a white shirt and black pants walked in.

An acquaintance asked, "What brings you here, Shen?"

Shen Yuhuai looked at the young woman grinning without a care in the world. "I'm here to collect a debt."

Shen Yuhuai was reserved and gentle by nature. None of his friends had ever met his girlfriend.

And they certainly never expected him to wrap an arm around a young woman's waist and coax her softly, "Yuyu, love me just a little more today, too."

His friends were stunned. Shen Yuhuai only smiled. "Don't mind me. My girlfriend's a delicate little thing. I have to pamper her."

Cong Jia and Yan Ze'an entered an arranged marriage and treated each other with respect.

Cong Jia had loved Yan Ze'an for five whole years because he had once pulled her out of the darkness. Yan Ze'an, meanwhile, found Cong Jia's mild, unexciting personality tiresome.

On their wedding anniversary, the two agreed to divorce.

After signing the papers, Yan Ze'an glanced at Cong Jia. "You really are... as dull as ever."

Cong Jia, as always, said nothing.

That night, at a competition, a commotion broke out at the entrance to the racetrack.

Yan Ze'an and his friend turned to look.

Beside the road, a woman sat on a sleek motorcycle, one hand resting on her helmet as she smiled brilliantly.

Yan Ze'an's gaze faltered.

It was Cong Jia, his freshly divorced ex-wife, and beside her stood Yan Shuhe, the elusive Yan family member who was never seen around.

Ever since learning that Yan Ze'an liked sweet, quiet girls like little white flowers, Cong Jia had devoted herself to becoming exactly that. Her best friend always teased her about it.

Cong Jia replied coolly, "I'm done catering to him."

One day after their divorce, Yan Ze'an heard that Cong Jia was going to an event.

Consumed by belated regret, he hurried over, eager to offer her a ride home.

But as soon as they went downstairs, a sports car pulled up and stopped. Its window lowered halfway. Yan Shuhe propped his chin on one hand and smiled amiably. "What a coincidence. I'm here to take your third sister-in-law home."

Yan Ze'an: "..."

Yan Shuhe fell for Cong Jia, only to later learn that she had married his cousin.

On her wedding night, he sat alone in the living room all night.

Years later, after returning to the country, he saw Cong Jia discussing divorce at a friend's law firm.

He knew his chance had come.

When Cong Jia learned that he'd helped make the divorce happen, she pinched Yan Shuhe's cheek and said, "How can you be so devious?"

He kissed the corner of her lips, his gaze tender and possessive. "Jiajia, I've waited for you for years."
