Why Haven't You Confessed Yet?

[The story next door, Dreaming in White Nights, is now open!]

The most outrageous thing Pei Nuan ever did was steal a kiss from Ying Fangyan while he was drunk.

She thought they had a mutual crush on each other. In fact, she was in love alone.

The day she heard Ying Fangyan was going to confess to someone else, she fled in a panic.

They meet again three years later.

Pei Nuan is angrily cursing out a game buddy she knows well, calling him a jerk in a message.

"I don't want to like him anymore."

Ying Fangyan, sitting right across from her and about to reveal who he is, freezes.

...What do you mean, you don't want to like him anymore? Explain yourself!

-

The worst thing Ying Fangyan ever did was lose his nerve at the last moment, just before confessing to Pei Nuan.

When he went to find her the day after graduation, she was already gone.

It turned out he had been imagining things.

A week after Pei Nuan disappeared, he left the country in a panic.

They meet again three years later.

While gaming, Ying Fangyan made a friend who was great at the game and even better at cursing people out. The only thing was, she used a cute-girl voice changer, which he found a little creepy.

He asks her to help him come up with a plan to win Pei Nuan back, while also serving as her emotional dumping ground as she angrily rants about the jerk she'd had a crush on in college.

One day, Ying Fangyan gets a message from his friend at a party.

"Holy crap, I just ran into that bastard from college who flirted with me and then refused to take responsibility."

Ying Fangyan immediately offers advice: "This is when you grab a glass of water, throw it in his face, then walk away with your head held high."

She replies, "I'm going for it."

Ying Fangyan closes his phone, satisfied.

Then he looks up and sees Pei Nuan, his crush of seven years, usually so gentle and shy, marching toward him with a cup of water in her hand.

Their eyes meet.

His heart skips a beat.

...But Pei Nuan loses her nerve and hands him the water instead. Her voice is soft.

"Senior, have some water."

-- Dreaming in White Nights --

Word has it that the second young master of the Cheng family in the capital has a white moonlight.

She died horribly in a car accident.

No matter how many women Cheng Jingwen has around him, none can take her place.

At a gala, someone sees Cheng Jingwen repeatedly looking toward a graceful, coolly beautiful woman at the side of the stage, and can't help thinking that he's going to fall for her tonight.

Everyone knows that Du Yao, the design director, loved her childhood sweetheart deeply and still hasn't forgotten him after five years.

He died in a plane crash, and they never even found his body.

Excellent men flock to her, but none can compete with someone who's gone.

Cheng Jingwen walks over. Du Yao is turning down a manager who's asked her to dance.

"Sorry, today is the anniversary of my boyfriend's death."

"Oh, I'm sorry for your loss."

The manager apologizes awkwardly and leaves.

She lets out a sigh of relief and turns to get a little cake.

She has barely taken a few bites when another voice asks, "Miss Du, may I have this dance?"

Du Yao automatically replies, "Sorry, today..."

Then she sees the face of the person asking and suddenly falls silent.

Cheng Jingwen isn't surprised. He narrows his eyes and gives a faint, rueful laugh.

"You won't even dance with your dead boyfriend?"

#What a coincidence, your white moonlight came back from the dead too#

#Mm-hmm, yours did too#
