When Lin Xiyuan's friends find out she likes Ling Chuan, the campus heartthrob at Wu University, they urge her to wake up and come to her senses as soon as possible.
"Everyone at Wu University knows Senior Ling Chuan from the architecture department is handsome and aloof. Girls have spent all four years of college chasing him. They could have run laps around the track... I don't know how many times. They've tried every type, but he hasn't given any of them the time of day. What does that tell you?"
Lin Xiyuan thinks for three seconds. "It means he's principled and refuses to settle."
"What the hell does 'principled and refuses to settle' mean?" Her friend rolls her eyes in exasperation. "The rumor is that he likes men."
"...?" Lin Xiyuan says. "No way!"
Her friend says, "Think about it. Why did he go up to your little brother and your uncle when he saw them?"
Lin Xiyuan is slowly led astray. "He, he was interested in...?"
Ling Chuan happens to walk by and accidentally overhears the whole conversation. His face goes dark...
His roommate stifles a laugh and teases him. "Hey, tell us. Why did you go up to them?"
Ling Chuan: "..."
Go up to them, my ass. I was trying to get them to leave. I thought they were my love rival, damn it!
I could have been content to be a little stream, if only I had never seen the mountains.
*The last line is adapted from "I could have endured the darkness if I had not seen the sun," from Emily Dickinson's poem "If I Had Not Seen the Sun."
Blurb for the upcoming novel As Long as the Moon Is Still There

Another year, another batch of rookie officers joining the force. The veteran officers are especially welcoming, determined to make the fresh police academy graduates feel the warmth of the city bureau's criminal investigation unit, inside and out.
After showing them around, they add, "Our criminal investigation unit is led by Captain Cheng Ji. You should have heard of him at the academy. He's solved countless major cases and is the youngest captain in the city bureau's history. He's just a little cold, so if you need something, speak up, but don't bother him if you don't."
The rookies whisper among themselves:
"I've heard of Captain Cheng."
"Me too."
"I also heard he's the best-looking guy in the whole public security system."
Hearing this, one of the veterans adds, "Hey, Captain Cheng is already married."
"Huh? He's so young and already married?"
"Yeah. I'm so curious about who his wife is..."
The veteran perks up at that. Lowering his voice, he gossips, "Our sister-in-law is impressive. The first time she met Captain Cheng, she almost got him arrested."
"Is she a police officer too?"
"No. Captain Cheng had just transferred to our bureau, and the team was throwing him a welcome dinner. Just as we arrived at the restaurant, a little girl ran over, hugged Captain Cheng, and called him 'Daddy.'"
"Daddy? Does that mean what I think it means?"
"Um... We were all stunned. The former captain was seeing red and had already pulled out his handcuffs. He almost arrested Captain Cheng for 'seducing a minor.'"

Mu Wangshu falls for the handsome new guy in the criminal investigation unit. She keeps using the excuse of bringing her father lunch to sneak over and see him, quietly pursuing him for over half a year. The guy stays cold and indifferent, showing no interest in her at all. So she decides to change tactics and confess directly. Just before she's about to do so, she asks, "Would you say we're friends?"
Cheng Ji pauses, then says, "You forgot, you called me 'Daddy' once."
Mu Wangshu: "...?"
Fine. If he's going to be like that, there's no point confessing.
Later, when a young man confesses to Mu Wangshu downstairs, Cheng Ji grits his back teeth so hard they're almost shattered. Just as she's about to answer the young man, Cheng Ji grabs her and pulls her away. His warm breath falls against her ear. "Was there something you didn't get to tell me that day?"
Mu Wangshu stays quiet, her face cold and expressionless. "No."
Cheng Ji lets go of his usual icy reserve and softens his voice, almost coaxing her. "I do."

It is now 4:27 in the morning on January 25, 2022, and I have read the entire book. After reading the entire book, I feel, how should I put it, there is abuse and sweetness, abuse is a little abuse, and sweetness is great sweetness. This is the most a little abuse among the four books I have read so far, but the full text It still looks very interesting, and the interaction between the two protagonists is very interesting. I like this book very much, so I won't say more. Then I wish our Ling Chuan and Lin Xiyuan to live a loving life in your world and grow old together, and our little baby Ling Yulin to grow up well and be happy every day! (^~^) (PS: Hello Da Da, I have finished reading the fourth book. I have read four of Da Da's books so far. I like all four of them. I wonder when Da Da will publish a new book? There are still four books that I am still a little bit reluctant to part with after reading them. Although I am reluctant to part with them, I still want to say congratulations to Da Da for completing the full text. Spread flowers and flowers. Finally, I wish you a happy new year! (^~^)
