Yan Xu is universally recognized by his colleagues as a workaholic. He's strict in everything he does and cool and aloof by nature. Aside from solving cases, he wants nothing to do with anything else.
One day, his colleagues spotted him from a distance beneath the office building, filming a public legal education video for some media outlet. The female reporter holding the camera kept saying in a soft, gentle voice:
"Could you speak a little more slowly?"
"Could you put that in more everyday language?"
"Prosecutor Yan... could you smile?"
His colleagues silently mourned the brave woman for three seconds, already envisioning the disastrous scene of Yan Xu walking off in a huff the next moment.
Instead, the next moment, the usually unsmiling prosecutor smiled at the camera. "All right, let's do it again."
Tang Xing is a well-known rising star in journalism. People praise her gentle, approachable interview style, but no one knows about the dark chapter in her past. When she was locked in the boys' bathroom at school, a boy who happened to pass by chased off the others and reached out to her. He became the light that shone through her darkness.
That boy was Yan Xu.
Tang Xing drew his profile in her books again and again, but never got another chance to say a word to him.
Years later, they met again. Yan Xu had become an outstanding prosecutor, but he no longer remembered her.
Tang Xing kept her feelings for him buried in her heart until the day she attended a friend's wedding.
The guests at her table whispered to her about Yan Xu's past. "Did you know? Yan Xu's WeChat profile picture is his unrequited love. He hasn't changed it since they were students. I heard he even got into a fight with a classmate over that girl and nearly got disciplined."
Tang Xing silently downed half a glass of baijiu. Watching the happy couple onstage, she cried until she could barely breathe.
At the neighboring table, Yan Xu heard the guests discussing whether the woman having a breakdown at the next table was the groom's ex-girlfriend. He couldn't help giving a small cough to interrupt them. "Excuse me, that's my wife."
Tang Xing always thought she was just an insignificant passerby in Yan Xu's textbook-perfect life.
What she didn't know was that, through the long years of his youth, he had followed her with a gaze both ardent and quiet.

[New contemporary romance: He Keeps His Love Secret]
After Wen Si gets into a car accident while dealing with heartbreak, she loses seven years of memories. Then two surreal things happen:
One: Xie Shiyu, the older brother of the man she had a crush on, becomes her husband.
Two: She and Xie Shiyu are in the middle of a divorce cooling-off period.
Wen Si had loved Xie Ran for years, and everyone knew it. She thought that if she treated him well enough, he'd eventually turn around and notice her. But he never did. Instead, she watched him replace his rumored girlfriends one after another, as casually as changing clothes.
Wen Si's only connection with Xie Shiyu was from her student days, when she'd visit Xie Ran's house and greet him with, "Hi, Brother Shiyu."
Xie Shiyu didn't say much. He was gentle by nature and always polite to her. Wen Si had always thought they'd married on impulse after she suffered a shock, and planned to wait out the cooling-off period and give him back his freedom.
Then one day, she found her pre-amnesia diary in the corner of her room and discovered that nearly every page was filled with the name "Xie Shiyu."
The first time Xie Shiyu met Wen Si, he was dropping off some luggage for Xie Ran.
It was raining. She held an umbrella as she took the things from him, her eyes crinkling as she called him "Brother Shiyu." Looking into her sparkling eyes, he felt something strike his heart.
For a long time, Xie Shiyu disliked Wen Si calling him "Brother Shiyu."
Later, when she called him "Xie Shiyu" in a hoarse voice, he softly coaxed her again and again to call him "Big Brother."
An unconventional marriage-first, love-later romance
[New contemporary romance: Lonely Buddies, Chatting Online]
While they were passionately in love, Qiao Yang asked Wen Cong, "Don't you think those rich young masters on TV who pretend to be poor so they can date the heroine for some reason have it pretty tough too?"
Wen Cong scoffed. "It's just made-up drama. Rich kids with empty lives like messing with ordinary people for fun. How could they be sincere?"
As he spoke, he affectionately patted Qiao Yang's head. "Don't worry. I'll never let someone like that trick you."
Qiao Yang forced a smile, her heart sinking halfway.
She was that shameless rich kid.
To her classmates, Qiao Yang was the stereotypical rich girl: pretty, wealthy, arrogant, unruly, and utterly full of herself. The Qiao couple were at their wits' end. Before leaving on an overseas vacation, they changed the locks and canceled Qiao Yang's cards, leaving her with one message: "It's time you got a taste of real life and learned to rein yourself in!"
Qiao Yang couldn't do a thing and was afraid of both hardship and hard work. After scrolling through job listings for ages, she got inspired by a colorful pop-up ad and posted on a local forum: "Lonely buddy available for online chats. I'll chase away all your emo blues."
Then she met Wen Cong and learned what a taste of real life really meant.
To Wen Cong, Qiao Yang was his sun. When he was at his lowest, she pulled him out of the abyss. She was always warm and sincere, shining on him.
He wanted to give her the best of everything in the world, but only later did he realize she already had it.
Five years after they parted, Wen Cong had become a hot new name in business. When he ran into Qiao Yang again, her family was pressuring her to go on a blind date.
Suppressing the longing that threatened to drive him mad, he pinned her against the corner of a cafe and pleaded in a low voice, "Don't you always want the best of everything? How is that guy out there better than me?"

Hahaha, after-sales service in my lifetime 🐶 bb, do you have any plans to write the next book?
After reading them all, I couldn't sleep most of the night last night and clicked on this collection of articles. I read it at three o'clock in the morning and finally finished it at this time. I just checked the time and found that the update time is very close to the time when I started reading the article. Hehe, I like this kind of thing that I can read in one go. It's super cool ~ OKfine. The protagonist's character and relationship development of this article are my favorite type. When I saw the author said that the whole article was finished, I was a little reluctant, but I felt that it was just right to stay here. They hold hands and will continue to move forward towards their respective loves!
I like it very much. Boo-boo-boo!
Can't buy the next 3 chapters?
In fact, I really like the male and female protagonists written by the author, and I also like their stories. However, the article uses a lot of space to describe some other things, so I can only fast forward and fast forward. The relationship between the male and female protagonists is less written, and the early and middle stages are particularly well written. I feel that the author wants to write more crime-solving and suspense novels, but I still want to read other articles like this
Damn, remember to write more when you have time. It's really hard to quit, hahaha
Click on the column and find that there is an update!
So warm 🌈 🌈, bringing a touch of warmth to my cold postgraduate entrance examination life [orange heart] [orange heart] [orange heart]
Finished spreading flowers! Tang Xing and Yan Xu are destined to meet again.
I've read the entire article, but I have a question: Did Tang Xing never know that the back of the girl holding an umbrella in Yan Xu's WeChat avatar was herself? Is it mentioned later? I don't seem to have any impression.
