Before summer vacation ended, Shi Ning asked Jiang Zhiyan to do her homework for her, and he nodded in agreement.

Five seconds later, the boy looked at the thick stack of worksheets in front of him, the corner of his mouth twitching despite himself.

He lifted his eyes slightly and asked, “What have you been doing all summer?”

Shi Ning blinked innocently and answered honestly, “Eating, sleeping, and playing video games.”

Jiang Zhiyan: “...”

-

Jiang Zhiyan was hugely popular at No. 1 High School in City A. His desk was often stuffed with all kinds of love letters and snacks.

But no one had ever seen him get close to any girl.

Except Shi Ning.

So the girls who liked him shifted their attention to her. They made inquiries from every angle and started bribing Shi Ning with snacks.

One day, everyone overheard a conversation between Jiang Zhiyan and Shi Ning.

With a bag of cookies in her arms, Shi Ning spoke with her mouth full. “These cookies are good. Remember to be nicer to people next time.”

Jiang Zhiyan: “...”

So he mattered less than a few bags of snacks?

-

On Shi Ning’s eighteenth birthday, she invited her friends to hang out.

During a game, someone asked Jiang Zhiyan if he liked anyone.

At that, Jiang Zhiyan glanced casually at Shi Ning, then smiled. “I do.”

Seeing everyone get excited, the person pressed on. “Who is it?”

Jiang Zhiyan lifted his eyes slightly but said nothing.

-

After the party, everyone left in twos and threes.

In a quiet corner, Jiang Zhiyan stared at Shi Ning.

A few minutes later, as the boy leaned closer, Shi Ning covered her face and blurted, “You can’t kiss me.”

Jiang Zhiyan chuckled. “Who said I was going to kiss you?”

After a pause, the boy’s gaze darkened, and his voice turned coaxing. “Just a kiss on the cheek. It’s fine.”

Blurb for Kiss Me Again and I’ll Kiss You

A powerful man who indulges his childhood sweetheart x a mischievous girl with maxed-out tea-girl skills

Everyone in City A’s social circle knows that Gu Xianli has a childhood sweetheart who’s pretty and a handful.

There have always been plenty of people who liked Gu Xianli, and Chi Sui naturally became a target for their resentment.

But she’s never been one to play by the rules.

When faced with a tea-green girl who frames her, Chi Sui will collapse to the floor in front of her, eyes red as she quietly sobs.

When faced with a white-lotus girl spouting fake sweetness, Chi Sui will go along with her and be even more “considerate.”

Yet Gu Xianli has always indulged her in all of this.

Everyone: “???”

-

Everyone who knows Gu Xianli knows he’s ruthless and calculating, never showing his feelings.

The only time anyone ever saw him get riled up was when he found out Chi Sui was dating someone.

Later, a rumor went around their circle that Gu Xianli had taken a few people and cornered Chi Sui’s boyfriend in an alley that night, then beaten him up.

No one believed it at first, until they saw Chi Sui’s ex-boyfriend with his face covered in bruises.

Everyone: “...”

-

Everyone thought Gu Xianli was so tolerant and caring toward Chi Sui simply because they’d grown up together.

Until one day, at a business gathering.

Drunk, Chi Sui pinned Gu Xianli to the sofa and demanded to know why he didn’t like her.

The usually aloof and quiet man lowered his head and buried his face against Chi Sui’s neck, his long, well-defined fingers wrapped around her slender waist.

His voice was husky, brimming with more than ten years of hidden love.

“I like you.”

“I like our Sui Sui most of all.”

-

Later, one day after they got together.

Gu Xianli lowered his eyes, about to delete a message from someone accusing Chi Sui of all kinds of misdeeds.

Seeing this, Chi Sui walked over and glanced at his screen.

She sat down beside Gu Xianli. After a moment, she said slowly, “Tell me.”

Gu Xianli turned his face toward her. “?”

Chi Sui spoke earnestly. “Where does this person live? I’ll go cry until they give in.”

Gu Xianli: “...”

The heroine doesn’t actually have a boyfriend. The boyfriend mentioned in the blurb is a misunderstanding.

Blurb for More Than Just Fond of You

A tsundere who’s doomed to die alone x someone whose enthusiasm lasts three minutes

After going to the hospital to pick up medicine several times, Xu Zhichu spotted someone she knew.

A man leaned against the wall, his long, pale fingers hooked around the edge of his mask as he prepared to change it.

Jiang Hang lowered his eyes lazily, patiently listening to the nurse across from him report on the situation.

Compared with when he was in high school, the man’s features now carried a cool, detached air.

Xu Zhichu froze for a moment, vaguely remembering that she might have pursued him back in high school.

Just as she was wondering whether to go over and say hello, Jiang Hang lifted his eyes and looked at her.

They weren’t far apart, so they could hear each other at a normal speaking volume.

Jiang Hang’s expression was blank, his voice cool as jade. “What are you looking at?”

Xu Zhichu blinked, stared at his face for three seconds, then curved her lips into a smile. “My future boyfriend.”

Jiang Hang raised an eyebrow. “?”

At her words, the pen in the nurse’s hand stopped.

She turned in a daze to glance at Xu Zhichu, then looked back at Jiang Hang, her voice brimming with curiosity. “Dr. Jiang, is this your girlfriend?”

After a few seconds, Jiang Hang said, “Ah,” then replied indifferently, “I suppose so.”

-

Xu Zhichu was very laid-back about pursuing Jiang Hang again.

A few days after her initial excitement had worn off, Jiang Hang cornered her against a wall.

He wore a white lab coat that fell to his knees, with two buttons of his shirt undone to reveal his beautiful, delicate collarbones.

Jiang Hang lowered his eyes slightly, his voice cool and indifferent. “Why haven’t you come to see me lately?”

Xu Zhichu looked up.

The next second, she answered innocently, “I don’t like you anymore.”

“Is that so?” Jiang Hang stared at her for a moment, then let out a quiet laugh. “If you don’t like me, then who do you like?”
