1. Jiang Mian had a wild streak from childhood. Her older brother, Jiang Ye, couldn't be bothered to keep an eye on her, so he left her in the care of their neighbor's older brother.

When she first met Ji Xian, the boy had a face like a painting. He bent down and offered her a fruit-flavored candy. "Be good, and big brother will take you out to play."

He looked after her for ten years.

At sixteen, a dream made Jiang Mian fall for her neighbor, Ji Xian.

She even went online to search specifically for an answer to the question: How do you win over a science-and-engineering guy?

Answer: Start with something he's not good at.

From then on, she sent him a handwritten love letter in classical Chinese every week.

But she never got a single reply.

2. When they met again, Jiang Mian was a low-level saleswoman, rushing around every day just to get by. Then she happened to learn that her neighbor's older brother had become a rising star at work, elegant and utterly out of reach.

They were worlds apart, so she kept her youthful feelings buried deep in her heart.

One day, rumors spread all over the company that she and the "unattainable office heartthrob" had been together for ages.

Her brother, Jiang Ye, happened to hear the news and sneered. "Which poor guy is being forced into a dating rumor with you?"

But the next day, he saw his childhood friend pinning a fair-skinned beauty against the wall and kissing her, tenderness practically spilling from his eyes.

He was about to turn and leave when the girl in his friend's arms suddenly looked up.

Tsk. The more he looked, the more she resembled his sister.

Ji Xian turned around and shielded the girl behind him, calmly undoing his cuff. "Bro, after all these years, I've completed the task you gave me."

In high school, everyone knew Jiang Ye had a little shadow who followed him around. Her name was Xu Qingchen.

Xu Qingchen was quiet. Wherever she went, she would blush and shrink into a corner, but she always did whatever Jiang Ye asked.

While following Jiang Ye around, she threw away countless love letters for him and accepted gifts from countless girls on his behalf.

After an exam, Xu Qingchen followed him to a quiet corner and worked up the courage to confess.

The boy seemed to have expected it. Teasingly, he said, "Date you? No way."

2. When they met again, Jiang Ye was still surrounded by admirers, with a crowd following him everywhere. She was just as before: a quiet girl who liked to hide in corners.

One rainy night, Xu Qingchen was stuck in the library and couldn't leave.

One by one, the people with her were picked up by their boyfriends. Before long, she was the only one left. Just as she was about to dash out into the rain,

Jiang Ye walked toward her through the rainy night, standing beneath a streetlight. "I'll take you home."

Xu Qingchen took a step back. "No need. I can get home by myself."

Jiang Ye smiled, but his voice held a hint of caution. "Why not give a suitor a chance?"

* A girl with social anxiety x a rich young master who never runs out of cheeky remarks.

* College story interwoven with high school memories.

* 1v1, both virgins, happy ending.
