A High-Maintenance Boyfriend

[Single-couple romance / Older woman-younger man / Puppy boyfriend and big sister / Clingy crybaby] [I really couldn't revise the locked chapters, so I posted a long image on Weibo] Qin Qiu grew up in a residential compound. Of all the kids there, the one she dreaded seeing most was Zhou Chengbai. He followed her around every day, calling, "Big Sis, Big Sis," without end. The youngest of the bunch, he always refused to play the son in make-believe games and insisted on being the dad. Especially during the years she tutored him in math. Instead of paying attention, the kid kept pestering her to help polish his love letters during class. As a result, he failed every math test, then came home crying every time. Finally, when he turned eighteen, Qin Qiu went away to college and escaped her little tagalong. They didn't see each other again for seven whole years. Then, when Qin Qiu was twenty-five, she came home for the New Year holiday. Her family wouldn't let up about setting her up, so she had no choice but to pick a blind date at random. As soon as she walked into the restaurant, she heard a familiar voice say, "Big Sis." The little crybaby who used to follow her around had become a completely different person. He was much taller, and with his baby fat gone, his face had the beginnings of a mature man's features. Since they knew each other, Qin Qiu didn't bother sugarcoating it. Qin Qiu: You're my blind date? You should know we're not right for each other, so let's not waste each other's time. The next second... Qin Qiu: Don't cry! I'll sit down, okay? We can talk some more.
