[Complete] Childhood friends, unrequited love. [My next book, "Spoiled Milk Candy," is now available... Pre-orders: "I'll Recommend You to the Whole World" / "Fireworks Frozen in Time." Please add them to your reading list!] "The road I take to find you is never long." From the day Ji Xinlan and Shen Chuanyu were born, they had spent most of their lives together: in the same residential complex, in the same building. They were even in the same class from kindergarten through middle school. They went to different classes in high school because of the arts and sciences track, but still went home together during the holidays. They thought they would finally part ways in college, but they got into the same university. Even though they had different majors, they joined the same club. Shen Chuanyu had planned all of it, step by step. He couldn't let Ji Xinlan get too far away from him, or he would lose control. Ji Xinlan seemed to be missing the part of her brain that dealt with romance. People had confessed to her in both high school and college, and each time she would frown slightly and reply with utmost seriousness, "I hope you'll focus on your studies, classmate." Hidden nearby, Shen Chuanyu nearly burst out laughing when he heard her answer. That was his Xinlan, all right. Ji Xinlan might not be sensitive to romance, but during a club activity in her sophomore year, she accidentally found out that Shen Chuanyu liked her. She wanted to see how long he would keep hiding it. Since the second year of middle school, Ji Xinlan had received a love letter from him every year on her birthday. The love in each letter grew more ardent than the last. In her sophomore year of college, Ji Xinlan finally caught the madman behind them. A little scene Ji Xinlan narrowed her eyes and interrogated him. "Shen Chuanyu, you're pretty clever, writing me love letters with your left hand. And would you mind explaining what all those explicit things you've written since college mean?" Shen Chuanyu answered slowly, "They mean exactly what they say. This isn't the right place to show you. Let's wait until we get home." His answer made Ji Xinlan feel as if she were about to steam with embarrassment. She shoved him away. "Who said I wanted you to show me!" Content warnings: 1. One-on-one, both leads sexually inexperienced, happy ending. Starts in college, with the male lead secretly in love with the female lead. 2. The male lead loves intensely and can be a little extreme. He doesn't realize his secret is out. 3. The female lead is slow to warm up at first, but later pretends to be silly and plays with the male lead's feelings. 3. An everyday story told in a straightforward style. I'm writing the story I want to write. I'm sorry if it doesn't meet your expectations; my abilities are limited. If it's not for you, feel free to swipe away. I hope everyone finds happiness.

My next book: "Spoiled Milk Candy" Reunion after a long separation / later, the male lead pursues his wife [Gentle but strong heroine X a scheming younger man who's turned bad] "Reunion is where the deception begins." Ever since she could remember, Su Baijia had known she was an orphan no one wanted. One day, a little boy appeared at the dinner table, tears streaking his face. She couldn't understand why a boy cried at the drop of a hat, and why she always had to give him milk candy to cheer him up. She thought he was even more delicate than a girl, but she still spoiled him. After all, he was fair-skinned, adorable, and utterly charming. Three years later, the boy's family came looking for him. Su Baijia was even more excited than he was. Having a family meant he would have a home! As the little boy clung to her leg and cried, she reluctantly played along with his family, coaxing him, "Once you're an adult, Big Sis will come find you. If you don't leave now, Big Sis will get mad and never talk to you again!" * Jiang Zhixun was looking for someone. She had promised to come find him when he turned eighteen, but she still hadn't shown up. He worried that she might be having a hard time and couldn't manage to come find him. At last, he found her, only to discover that she was doing better than he'd imagined. His years of waiting and worrying seemed utterly ridiculous. Jiang Zhixun watched Su Baijia from afar as she arranged goods at the supermarket. Through gritted teeth, he said, "Then I'll come find you, Big Sis. Don't blame me for lying to you, okay? You lied to me too, after all." A little scene: Jiang Zhixun casually tossed his several-thousand-yuan shoes into a trash can, then ran barefoot through the rain to Su Baijia's home. Soaked to the skin, he crouched by the door all night. The next day, Su Baijia opened the door and was startled by the sight! Before she could ask what was going on, Jiang Zhixun looked up, pale and weak. "Big Sis, I've been abandoned again. Why does everyone abandon me? Am I so awful that nobody wants me?" Su Baijia: "Who said that? I want you!" Blurb screenshot dated 2021/7/2 Content warnings: 1. Both leads are sexually inexperienced, happy ending. The heroine is 23, and the hero is 20. 2.
