Qiao Lan and Zhou Muyun had been neighbors for over a decade.
When Zhou Muyun skipped class, Qiao Lan covered for him. When he got into trouble, she cleaned up after him.
One day, Qiao Lan asked him for a favor for once.
Zhou Muyun glanced at the pink envelope she handed him and raised an eyebrow in surprise. "A love letter? For me?"
"Don't flatter yourself. There's a name written on it."
The boy's eyes briefly lost their inscrutable look, and when he looked up again, he was back to his usual carefree self.
"You think one measly game cartridge is enough to get me running errands for you?"
"Then what do you want?"
"At least two."
Over three years of high school, Qiao Lan's first crush came to nothing.
Years later, at a class reunion, her crush announced his engagement, and someone nearby jokingly brought up Qiao Lan.
"Qiao Lan gave me a love letter? Give me a break. Everyone at school knew she was dating Zhou Muyun."
Only then did Qiao Lan learn that Zhou Muyun had kept all those love letters from her. She went to confront him at his home. When she knocked, a tall, handsome man in loose pajamas opened the door, his hair still damp. He leaned against the doorframe with his arms crossed, quietly listening to her complaints. At the end, he said with a faint, teasing smile,
"Qiao Lan, why do you think I'm still single?"
Someone once asked Zhou Muyun what his relationship with Qiao Lan was. Back then, the boy had answered carelessly, "Just a neighbor girl."
Until the day he saw her blushing as she handed someone a love letter, with another man's name written on it.
Only then did he suddenly realize that the little tagalong who used to follow him around had long since given her heart to someone else.
"A secret crush is like the line between light and shadow in a sketch, an invisible boundary separating two worlds."
"He dwells in a dark river, yet can't help turning his heart toward the dawn."

Synopsis:
Qiao Wan attends a party with her boyfriend of many years.
Her boyfriend loses a dare and draws a penalty card: kiss the person sitting to his left.
And to his left sits the unrequited love of his youth, the one who got away.
Concealing his feelings, her boyfriend kisses her amid the crowd's cheers. The charged atmosphere and teasing banter make Qiao Wan look like a clown.
Afterward, her boyfriend turns to comfort her. "Wanwan, don't take it seriously. It was just a game."
Plenty of people are waiting to see Qiao Wan blow up, but instead she smiles, picks up her glass, and joins the game.
A few rounds later, she draws the same card as her boyfriend.
The unfamiliar man beside her is quiet, with an aura that warns others to keep their distance. Even here, he doesn't stop working, his long, slender fingers tapping at the keyboard as if he couldn't care less about what's happening around him.
Qiao Wan grabs his tie and pulls him into a kiss.
The whole room falls silent as if snow has begun to fall.
Ignoring her boyfriend's sour expression, she grabs her bag and walks out.
Qiao Wan ends the relationship cleanly and decisively, throwing her ex-boyfriend out of her life like trash.
A week later, she starts at a new company.
The CEO is young and accomplished, and the company's benefits are among the best in the industry. Qiao Wan is very satisfied.
It's just that during meetings, she keeps getting the strange feeling that her boss has been watching her.
After work, in an empty hallway, the tall man blocks her path. His bespoke suit is draped casually over his arm. He hooks a finger under his gold-rimmed glasses and takes them off, revealing a pair of sharp, narrow eyes.
"You kissed me and ran off. Did you think I was just a prop?"
"..."
That very night, Qiao Wan posts anonymously on a forum: Help! I kissed my boss during a party dare. What do I do?
The top-voted reply says: Either quit, or find a way to turn your boss into your lover.
She can lose her head, she can bleed, but she can't lose her job.
After five minutes of agonizing, Qiao Wan chooses the latter.
Flirtatious beauty X aloof, untouchable boss

If Xiao Qiao doesn't have a crush on Jiang Zhuo, Zhou Meili may cry to death.
Emmmm, what can I say? I really don't like Feng Cancan. She has too many roles and I don't want her to come clean. Her own suffering is no reason for her to hurt others.
Brother Mu is so fierce that he won't have a wife.
You speak very coolly. Let me see how you behave when you chase your wife.
... Why do you think there is not much benefit to doing this?

If you really want to clear your name, then just abandon the book. Anyway, there are no regular updates.
Hahaha, big misunderstanding
Strong women are stronger than men, right? (Sigh) After seeing this, it seems that I clicked here because I was a childhood sweetheart (Sigh) I said before that the male protagonist was stronger in junior high school, but he was overwhelmed by everything. He even said arrogant words to the female protagonist before, which was really unpleasant (I'm going to vent, if you mind, you can delete the comment)
