The Rose Doesn't Want You

After moving in with the Zhou family, Ye Jiu did two things: secretly fell for Zhou Shi, and stayed away from his younger brother, Zhou An, a gloomy, peculiar madman.

She threw away her miniskirts, washed off her tattoos, and tied her wavy hair into a neat ponytail.

She paid attention in class and studied for exams.

All so Zhou Shi would look her way a little more.

Instead, she attracted Zhou An's mocking, contemptuous gaze.

At Zhou Shi's twentieth birthday party, Ye Jiu prepared a gift with care and worked up the courage to confess after a few drinks.

In the noisy, dimly lit private room of a club, tipsy, she confessed her true feelings to him. When he didn't reject her, she rose onto her toes and gave him a gentle kiss.

The next day, she learned that Zhou Shi hadn't even been there. She'd kissed the wrong person.

Ye Jiu tried to act as if nothing had happened, but Zhou An stopped her outside the school gates on her way home.

He slowly wiped the corner of his mouth and smiled lazily. "You bit me."

"Aren't you going to take responsibility?"

Synopsis:

Yun Sui knew their meeting wasn't a coincidence.

That day, the bar where she worked part-time was offering a deal on account top-ups, and she gave Bai Yancheng her own WeChat number.

The two of them grew closer because of her careful maneuvering at every step.

Later, after they broke up, a friend asked what she'd gotten out of it.

"Money, a car, jewelry," she said.

Nothing but love was missing.

The seed of the crush she'd planted in her youth would never be returned.

.

The young master of the Bai family was renowned for his affairs, and there were always plenty of women around him.

A girl like Yun Sui, who didn't cling to him after they broke up, was a first.

One day at a small gathering of their circle, someone brought up Yun Sui and praised her for quietly terminating an unexpected pregnancy on her own, saying she was so sensible and considerate not to trouble a man.

They meant to hold her up as an example to the other women, but their words enraged the usually quiet and reserved Bai Yancheng. He smashed his glass in a fit of anger and stormed out.

.

Everyone said Yun Sui had offended Bai Yancheng and become the taboo he hated most.

But the one who woke again and again in the dead of night, haunted by nightmares, was him. The one who waited all night downstairs from her building was also him. Even when he saw her, all he could do was gently rub her tiny wrist with his fingertip and ask in a trembling, low voice, "Suisui, be good. Could you look at me just once?"
