Hot Snow

[Coming off VIP on February 8. I'll finish the story after a while. I'm truly sorry, everyone.]

After the spoiled heiress Zhong Yan loses a competition, she's challenged to play a game: toy with a girl's feelings.

Her friends don't pick the flirtatious campus beauty. Instead, they choose Xu Jianing, a quiet, well-behaved top student.

"It's only fun to toy with a girl who doesn't know how to play the game."

The challenge is simple: get the girl to fall for her, then dump her when she's head over heels.

Everyone thinks this game will be a piece of cake. After all, there are always people throwing themselves at Zhong Yan. A girl who's never been in love before doesn't stand a chance against her.

But they're wrong. Her friends watch as Zhong Yan falls deeper and deeper.

She dyes her brightly colored hair black and wears it long and straight.

She swaps cigarettes and alcohol for milk and juice to soothe her stomach.

She stops going to bars so often and becomes a regular at the library.

By the end of the game, Zhong Yan is the one groveling in the relationship.

She even starts dreaming of building a happy home with Xu Jianing after graduation.

Until Xu Jianing dumps her without mercy, and Zhong Yan realizes that she's the one who got played.

In this game, Zhong Yan thinks she's the hunter, but she's just a foolish little prey.

Xu Jianing, who seems so gentle and obedient, is the hunter pretending to be prey.

The other woman gets the girl / No going back to an ex / Sweet romance

(1) Xu Yiyi has been with Qin Zhi for five years, without a name or a commitment.

She longs for a home of her own, but says nothing all these years because Qin Zhi is against marriage.

For Qin Zhi, she gives up her career and social life. She's gentle and obedient, never argues or makes demands.

Until she learns that Qin Zhi is engaged to someone else and has made the news public.

Xu Yiyi summons the last of her courage to ask, "Would you marry me?"

Qin Zhi smiles faintly. "Yiyi, don't beg for something that was never yours."

Xu Yiyi's heart dies, and she leaves for good.

(2) Xu Yiyi is preparing to start a new life when she unexpectedly keeps running into Shen Qinglin.

Shen Qinglin is both a longtime family friend and business partner of Qin Zhi's. Xu Yiyi met her a few times while she was with Qin Zhi.

She's strikingly beautiful, and people say she's ruthless. She's the opposite of the gentle, amorous Qin Zhi.

Shen Qinglin helps her look for a job, takes her to the hospital, and gradually becomes a part of her life.

She even coaxes Xu Yiyi into eating porridge like a child and clumsily cooks for her.

The two get together. Xu Yiyi doesn't dare bring up marriage again, but Shen Qinglin grows insecure.

She often complains, "My family is pressuring me to get married because of my age. It's really stressful."

(3) After Xu Yiyi leaves, Qin Zhi searches for her for a long time, until she sees Xu Yiyi leaning against Shen Qinglin, smiling radiantly.

Consumed by jealousy, she tries to win Xu Yiyi back and clings to her desperately.

Xu Yiyi only smiles faintly and says, "Qinglin and I will definitely attend your wedding."

PS: Shen Qinglin has been in love with Xu Yiyi for years.
