In 2014, a forty-story sail-shaped hotel seemingly appeared out of nowhere beside Xiping People's Square, instantly becoming the tallest building in Xiping.
Chen Xi was sixteen that year, a sophomore in high school. When she got home, she heard her aunt discussing it excitedly:
"They say the owner of that sail-shaped hotel by People's Square is surnamed Zhou. He's from Beijing, and supposedly very young, not even thirty."
"My husband works at the Audit Bureau and saw the owner with his own eyes. He looks like a movie star. You'd never guess he's a businessman..."
No one knew that the movie-star handsome man had brought eighteen-year-old Chen Xi to the executive suite once again. Sitting beneath the floor-to-ceiling window, he lit a cigarette and crossed his legs. Looking at Chen Xi's tear-reddened eyes, he admitted with a helpless expression, "Can't help it. I was born bad."
It was their third year of knowing each other, and she still had no place in his heart.
In 2017, Chen Xi got into R University and headed north alone to study.
When her boyfriend cheated on her, she calmly suggested they break up.
Her boyfriend begged, saying he really loved her and asking if she could forgive him just this once.
Before Chen Xi could shake off the jerk's hand, she was distracted by the man leaning against a Cullinan nearby, watching the scene unfold.
He lit a cigarette, lifted his chin, and said arrogantly, "Didn't you hear her tell you to get lost?"
The jerk looked up, saw Zhou Yanzhou's face, and was too scared to speak.
Zhou Yanzhou stared at Chen Xi, looking as if he wanted to take her apart and devour her whole.
Right in front of her ex, Chen Xi got into a luxury car with her birthday as its license plate number and drove away.
Inside the car, Zhou Yanzhou gripped the back of Chen Xi's head. He watched the Maybach chasing after them with an inscrutable look and said, "Your ex isn't much to write home about."
He admitted that, in that moment, he was consumed by jealousy.
She knew she would never cross the harbor called "Zhou Yanzhou" in this lifetime.

The author is great, the story about Jiang Chi having someone he likes has not yet been told!
Recently, I have been listening to the single "A Chu Girl" and I suddenly thought of the story I just read a few days ago. I feel that Xixi and Zhou Yanzhou are the county version of the story of Miss A Chu. The lyrics "I once and a girl named A Chu, depended on each other to watch the moon." In this story, it is "I once and a girl named Chen Xi, depended on each other to watch the fireworks."
It's so good. I cried while reading some chapters.
To be continued are such beautiful four words!!!
I really liked this novel. My wife's writing is really good. I read it all night after I ordered it!
I've been out of books lately, and I found this book. It's very good and worth reading.
