From Secret Crush to Passionate Love

Ongoing novel: "I Just Want to Share the Little Things with You." Synopsis at the very end.

Synopsis:

Mom's first love has come back, bringing along his handsome nephew.

And so, Lin Zhizhi and the nephew, Song Yuncheng, become props for the middle-aged couple's second chance at love.

But can two props really fall head over heels for each other?

And can that passionate romance really stem from a long-standing secret crush?

Lin Zhizhi: "You even know I never dated anyone in college? What don't you know?"

Song Yuncheng: "Let me think. Half a year ago, your family set you up on a blind date. To be honest, it had me worried sick."

Coming soon: "I Just Want to Share the Little Things with You."

This is a love story about two people with completely different personalities who gradually spark something special as they spend their days sharing the little things.

Their first impressions of each other:

Huo Wentao: She was an immature girl who came to politely turn down a blind date on behalf of her cousin.

Sang Qi: Isn't this guy a nutcase? I practically went through fire and water on my cousin's behalf.

Their second impressions, after getting to know each other:

Huo Wentao: The way she lies to herself is pretty amusing.

Sang Qi: His two-faced act isn't bad either.

Sang Qi: So, is this the difference between men and women?

Huo Wentao laughed. "No, it's just the difference between you and me."

Sharp-tongued, tsundere bookstore owner + university student who loves to write

He says: The nagging of older relatives can be even more exhausting than blind dates.

He says: Roses and diamonds are nothing but a marketing scam to brainwash women.

He says: If I didn't know you were fishing for gossip to help with your writing, I'd think you'd fallen for me.

He says: If you're not secretly in love with me, you'd better stop prying into my private life.

He says: You don't really believe there's such a thing as everlasting love, do you?

And at long last, he says helplessly, resigned to his fate: "Stop being childish. Love is bound to change eventually... So marry me before it does. Turn love into duty and family affection, then take a gamble on whether I'm the kind of man whose conscience can keep him in line..."

Well, is there even any need to gamble?

Sang Qi can't help laughing. "That man who raced me to the hospital on a typhoon night, who else could it be?"

Readers: Why do they keep talking and talking?

Author: Exactly, because this is a love story about two people with completely different personalities who gradually spark something special as they spend their days sharing the little things.

Wanting to share the little things with you can be the most extraordinary kind of romance.

Bonus scene:

Cousin: Why are you always hanging around the bookstore?

Sang Qi: So I can hear gossip for my writing.

Cousin: Why are you still working at the shop over summer break?

Sang Qi: So I can get gossip out of Boss Huo for my writing.

Cousin: Did you go to a hotel room with Boss Huo to get material for your writing too???

Sang Qi: Don't get the wrong idea. I said I had no experience in that sort of thing, and he offered to help!

Huo Wentao: Y-You know that the more you explain, the worse it sounds!

Sang Qi: All right, all right. We were just doing field research. Nothing happened.

Theme: Cherish the good things in life.
