When Chen Fuyue was in high school, she once had an unrequited crush that came to nothing.
It was like a drop of water hidden in the sea, making no waves and noticed by no one.
Years later, she ran into her crush again, but only after an unexpected drunken night, in bed with him.
In a panic, she transferred him some money, then decisively blocked all his contact information and ran.
She thought that would be their last connection.
Until the day of her birthday party...
The dance floor was packed. After finishing the first dance with her childhood friend, she turned toward the hallway for some air. A man in a black suit appeared by the window.
His exquisite features were even more captivating than they had been under the dim light that night. She instinctively tried to flee, but a large hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her straight into the room next door.
"Why are you avoiding me?" he asked in a low voice.
She laughed awkwardly. "I was afraid you'd come looking for me to take responsibility."
"But now I've found you."
Xie Yu lowered his eyes, his tone a little unreasonable.
"So you have to take responsibility."
Chen Fuyue: "Do you want me to marry you?"
Xie Yu: "?"
Chen Fuyue: "...Sorry, I misspoke."
Chen Fuyue: "Then you can marry me."
Xie Yu: "."
After that string of nonsense, she thought he would get angry.
But he only gazed at her for a long time, his eyes like a deep pool concealing feelings too secret to see the bottom of.
"All right."
He answered softly.
"I'll marry you."
Chen Fuyue: But I don't want to marry you yet...
