One afternoon in a cafe, a tall, slender figure caught Kang Baoyi's eye.
She looked up. It was a man in a gray shirt and trousers, his brown hair brushed back, his legs long and his waist narrow.
He bent his neck slightly, brows lowered in concentration as he stared at his computer screen.
His sleeves were rolled halfway up his arms, the veins on his forearms clearly visible.
Kang Baoyi's eyes widened. She silently marveled at his straight nose, long lashes, and how incredible he looked in a button-up shirt!
Excitedly, she took out her tablet and sketched his features on the screen with her stylus.
When she finished the outline and looked up again, the seat across from her was empty.
The second time she saw him was on a train to London.
This time he wore a black shirt. As he looked down at his computer, his long-fingered hand unconsciously brushed his neck.
Kang Baoyi's heart raced. She pressed her lips together to hide her smile and told her friend, I saw him again!
During the ten-minute ride, she agonized over how to strike up a conversation, but she couldn't bring herself to do it before he got off.
In the end, she watched through the window as he walked away, her heart racing and regret welling up inside her.
Half a month later, the man's profile appeared among the suggested accounts on the Instagram page of one of Baoyi's friends.
Late one night, Frederick received a new message.
Bare-chested, he casually opened it. It was a drawing.
The man in the picture was him, a half-length portrait with his neck slightly bowed and the veins on his exposed forearm standing out.
Frederick raised an eyebrow, studying the picture with interest. His long fingers slowly traced his Adam's apple, and the corner of his mouth lifted ever so slightly.
Later
The morning light filtered through white gauze curtains, casting long, narrow shadows across Kang Baoyi's flushed cheeks. Her slender legs were folded together.
Frederick lowered his eyes and ran his long fingers along her slender neck, his thumb brushing the golden bell. He lifted his lips slightly and commanded in a husky voice,
"Kiss me now."
If puppy loves you, she will love you boldly, passionately, and sincerely until death.
The way Kang Baoyi throws you off balance is what makes her so captivating, just like my love for you.

In her dreams, Sang Zhi went searching for a faint light and met a man with blue hair and white clothes.
His lips were red and his teeth were white, his features exquisite. A dragon's tail, bound by silk ribbons, shimmered silver and cast a dazzling glow.
A brief exchange of glances, a touch of lips, and she was utterly enchanted.
Later,
The man she had stolen a kiss from crossed through her fragmented dream and stepped into her life.
Sang Zhi smiled, her beautiful eyes bright. "Qingqing, it's really you!"
Gu Jiuqing, prince of the Celestial Clan and son of the East Sea, came to the mortal world to avenge his mother. He approached Sang Zhi with an ulterior motive.
Cool and taciturn, he was nevertheless healed by Sang Zhi, and what he felt for her was more than affection.
Those who have lived through darkness cannot bear to lose even the smallest glimmer of light.
