Arctic Sweetness

1.

Cheng Beibei had to go to the hospital because of a stomachache, and the doctor repeatedly warned her to avoid spicy and cold foods.

She nodded at every point, saying she would remember.

The next day, she ran into an acquaintance at her front door, ice cream in her mouth and spicy hot pot in her hand.

The two stared at each other in silence for a few seconds.

"Hi, Dr. Ji." On a whim, she held out the ice cream. "Want a bite?"

Ji Xun looked at her and said nothing, smiling.

2.

The hospital where Ji Xun worked was holding a dinner, and he instinctively asked Cheng Beibei if she wanted to come along.

She declined shyly. "It's a hospital dinner. Wouldn't it be awkward if I came?"

"Don't worry, I asked. You can bring family."

Remembering how Ji Xun had once introduced her to someone as his younger sister, she brought up the old issue with a sour tone. "Are you going to tell people I'm your younger sister again?"

Ji Xun smiled. Behind his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes shone like stars. "When I said family,"

"I meant the kind who shares a household registration with me."

Cheng Beibei: "..."

-New book pre-order: Only the Moon Passes By-

Everyone in the capital knew that Zhou Wanqing, the Zhou family's heiress, and the wealthy heir Ni Younian had married for business, and had no feelings for each other.

Even Ni Younian himself thought so.

Yet Zhou Wanqing took their marriage seriously and did her best to make it work.

"I just watched a horror movie. I'm scared, and I can't sleep."

"Your brother was so scary today. I don't dare sleep alone."

"..."

As Ni Younian lowered his guard again and again, sacrificing himself to keep her company night after night, she still wasn't satisfied. Before he knew it, she had kissed him.

Ni Younian: "?"

Zhou Wanqing looked perfectly earnest. "They said married couples do this."

Ni Younian's gaze darkened, his expression unreadable as he looked at her.

"Did they tell you what comes next?"

Zhou Wanqing's heart fluttered. She bit her lip and shook her head.

"Close your eyes."

Their lingering, tender kisses fell upon her, and the night turned intoxicating.

*

The next day, Zhou Wanqing kept gazing at him with tearful eyes, looking as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.

Ni Younian assumed she regretted what happened and was about to reassure her that he would take responsibility, when she asked him with an innocent, harmless expression:

"Are we doing that again tonight?"

Ni Younian: "?"

What were they doing?

*

What Ni Younian didn't know was that on countless nights, she had sat on the steps and gazed up at the moon.

Everyone thought she was looking at the moon, never knowing that she was only missing her own moon.

I miss you so much, Ni Younian.
