[Next up: Flower Branches in the Spring Wilds] [I wrote a bonus extra about Yin Yin and Teacher Fu. Subscribe to 50% to read it -ω-] Jiang Yin is a homebody with mild social anxiety and anxiety. Everyone knows her as quiet and not much of a talker, until the artist she has followed for ages starts livestreaming... Just seeing a pair of long, slender hands on screen was enough to drive the viewers wild. As the chat filled with messages like, "Wifey, stop drawing. I'll support you by collecting recyclables," Jiang Yin let her true self out online and happily joined in with the same line. Then the person on screen suddenly spoke, his voice cool and a little bewildered. "Wifey?" Jiang Yin: ??? The instant she heard those two words, the smile froze on her face and her brain completely shut down. Why did that voice sound so much like her neighbor? Jiang Yin stared stiffly at the screen, praying she had heard wrong, but that familiar voice came from her phone again. "You'll support me by collecting recyclables?" Jiang Yin: "..." I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. Please forget it! Then she heard Fu Liangyu sigh and say, sounding helpless, "Do you mean it?" At last, he tapped the screen with a bent index finger, chuckled softly, and called, "Yin Yin." Jiang Yin: I don't mean it! I don't! Help!!!! Netizens: Aaaah, she means it!! I'll take responsibility!!! Aaaaaah, wifey!!!! * UYAU is famous for being aloof and follows back only a handful of people. When he drew picture after picture for Jiang Yin, some jealous people started rumors: Yu Yin Rao Liang sure knows how to work the angles, opening up a whole new kind of marketing. Before Jiang Yin could say anything, the other person involved commented below: I draw pictures for my girlfriend. Got a problem with that? While netizens were shouting about how sweet they were, someone commented: This is hilarious! She has a boyfriend in real life. Either UYAU is the other man or he's the homewrecker, and you're still shipping them? Isn't that gross? As netizens debated heatedly and the post threatened to cause an uproar online, they refreshed the page and saw that both people involved had replied, their comments posted only moments apart. [Yu Yin Rao Liang Y: Hello. That's him in both cases.] [UYAU: Sorry. That's me in both cases.] *Jiang Yin x Fu Liangyu Socially anxious homebody x master of patience pursuing his wife Also known as: Just Call Me Wifey, No Need to Take Responsibility; You Draw, I Wouldn't Dare Complain; I Cheated on Myself A few friendly notes: 1.

He kindly called an ambulance for her grandmother and brought her there. Only later did she learn that he was the transfer student who had skipped school for a week. Grateful to him for saving her grandmother, Yu Zhi paid him a little more attention. When she saw someone looking for a fight, she quickly called 110, then stepped forward. Worried she might get hurt, Cen Ye frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Hurry up and leave." Yu Zhi wanted to leave too, but she couldn't. To buy time, she shut her eyes and took the plunge. Thinking of the posts about the two of them on the school forum, Yu Zhi pressed her lips together. She pointed at Cen Ye, then herself, and said guiltily, "I can't leave. After all... it's true that wildflowers are all over me." Cen Ye: "?" Everyone in Class Seven knew that Yu Zhi's nickname was Yu Xiaohua. Those words packed a punch, and before long Cen Ye believed her. Back then, he never imagined that he would be the one to fall deeper and deeper. - [Mini-scene] After they got together, they were waiting for a bus one day. Yu Zhi was shivering from the cold, but didn't think to snuggle into his arms. Cen Ye suddenly asked, "Do you know how other people act when they're in love?" Thinking of something, Yu Zhi suddenly fell silent. After a long pause, she slowly said, "Pin you against the wall, eyes red, hands on your waist, and then... give you my life?" She ventured, "My life is yours?" Cen Ye: "?" - Theme: Someone will love you, even if you're not perfect.
