Xia Yining thinks she’ll never forget her high school crush, even after starting work, mainly because she never found the courage to confess to him back then.
Even if there had only been a one-in-a-thousand chance he’d say yes.
Even if he rejected her, at least she’d have an answer.
That would have been better than spending so many years waking from midnight dreams, regretting that tiny chance she never took.
Sometimes, the ache of unfinished business is harder to let go of than love or hate.
After all, for a brief time, she had once been so close to him.
But Xia Yining never expected Pei Xuyan, who had lost touch with all his classmates after going abroad, to come back.
When they met again, he was still the pride of the heavens.
At their class reunion, he was still the center of attention, with everyone gathered around him.
Xia Yining sat in a corner with her friend and barely spoke to him.
After all these years, he might not even remember who she was.
Then her friend, who was recently caught in a marital crisis, heard him say he planned to stay in the country and had already joined the city’s famous Red Circle law firm.
She went over to ask if he handled divorce cases.
The young, distinguished man politely declined. “Sorry, I don’t take divorce cases. If you need one, I can recommend a colleague.”
Her friend still had the impression of him as the top student from back then, and was desperate for a divorce, so she pushed Xia Yining to help persuade him.
Xia Yining steeled herself and asked, “Are you really not taking divorce cases?”
She hadn’t yet managed to add, “We can negotiate the terms.”
Pei Xuyan: “I’ll take it.”
Xia Yining: “...?”
Her friend: “???”
Their other classmates: “?????”
“Do you remember, the summer of my memories?”
