Misjudgment

[Complete] Unrequited love becomes mutual / rekindled love 1, In his youth, Jiang Rang was carefree and unruly, a charming rogue with a wicked streak. Admirers flocked to him, all hoping to win the heart of a bad boy, but no one had ever seen him truly fall for anyone. Then someone spotted him beside the rose-covered wall at the dance academy, an arm around a girl. She wore a ballet skirt, with a slender waist and long legs, her shoulder blades drawn in like butterfly wings. The wind lifted her white skirt. With a silver lighter in her palm, she reached up and clicked it on to light his cigarette. But her secret crush stepping into the light was fleeting, like a flower that blooms only once. 2, When they met again, Ji Ye was the leading ballerina of the Nancheng Ballet Company. At the touring performance, Jiang Rang sat in the theater’s VIP section. The stage lights flickered, illuminating his focused dark eyes, fixed on one spot throughout. After the show, as glasses were raised and lowered, someone introduced him to the tour’s sponsor and gestured for her to go offer a toast. The man at the head of the table casually covered the rim of his glass, his eyes unreadable. “We know each other.” Ji Ye only laughed softly. “Not that well.” 3, The principal dancer of the Southern Ballet Company became famous. Elegant and ethereal, she seemed to float above the world. People said that even the powerful Jiang family heir was a regular presence behind the curtain. A curious reporter followed her and discovered that after every performance, the girl’s slender figure would lean against the back seat of a Bentley. The car door opened. A pair of delicate, pale hands reached out toward the arrogant, untamed man. “Pick me up.” Sweet girl x handsome rogue Content warnings: * One-on-one romance, both leads’ first time * From school days to the city * Not a groveling-ex story!

Preview of upcoming novel Out of Line Beijing elite heir x cool beauty It had just rained in the outskirts of the city the day she first met Chen Jingyao. The man wore a black stand-collar jacket, his shadow cast beneath the track lights as he leaned lazily against a car door. Someone beside him tried to light his cigarette. He didn’t even bend down, simply letting them try again and again in the breeze. Her boyfriend walked Xiang Wan over, all ingratiating politeness. Xiang Wan remembered Chen Jingyao’s aloof, distant expression and smiling, deep-set eyes. His first words to her were, “Hello, Miss Xiang.” The night she witnessed her boyfriend cheating, Xiang Wan happened to run into Chen Jingyao again. The private room was dimly lit that night. Chen Jingyao sat at the head of the table without looking at her. Xiang Wan knew he was dangerous and cold-hearted, but when he passed by, she still reached out and caught his sleeve. - At first, to Chen Jingyao, Xiang Wan was no more than a fragile, easily broken dodder vine. In the end, it became absurdly hard to tell who had fallen first. When Xiang Wan tried to walk away, Chen Jingyao bent his fingers and pressed them against her throat. He threatened her in a low voice. “Xiang Wan, you won’t get a second chance.” “If I ever catch you doing that again, I’ll kill you.” Later, back in Beijing, Xiang Wan went out of her way to avoid Chen Jingyao. One rainy night, at the entrance to a dark stairwell, she saw him leaning against the peeling wall, walking toward her one step at a time. “Is it really so hard to swallow your pride and come back to me?” “If I could do it all over again, I’d still gladly stop for you.” Theme: Respect love
