Please add my next contemporary romance, Crossing Summer's Hills, to your reading list~~
Synopsis:
Mutual pining / Reunion after years apart / Rekindled love
A cool, reserved airline captain with a passionate heart x a sharp-witted online singer who hits back when provoked
During their senior year of high school, after a class dinner, Xu Chu worked up the courage to let the air out of her bicycle tire so the boy she liked would have to take her home.
Once they reached her house, he stopped the bike, but she stayed sitting sideways on the back, her toes touching the ground. Nervously, she pinched the boy's shirt hem until it wrinkled. "Yan Lie, after the college entrance exams, would you do me a favor?"
The boy didn't turn around. "Sorry. I don't feel that way about you."
As if she had been stabbed, Xu Chu jumped off the back of the bicycle almost at once, clutched her schoolbag, and fled.
After graduating from college, she left early during a ceremony's behind-the-scenes segment and went to a class reunion.
Xu Chu ran into Yan Lie again, for the first time in eight years.
Her first reaction was to shut the private room door and pretend he wasn't there.
*
Everyone at Beicang Airport who knows Yan Lie knows he is dedicated to his job and keeps to himself in his personal life.
Plenty of beautiful, long-legged women have been interested in him, but he has turned them all down after they confessed their feelings.
Later, just when everyone thought Yan Lie was probably only passionate about the skies, he unexpectedly hurried to finish work one day, right before the Lunar New Year.
When his colleague questioned him, he simply replied, "Sorry, my girlfriend's waiting for me to go try on formalwear with her."
*
Xu Chu livestreams about once a week to thank her fans.
Recently, attentive viewers noticed a limited-edition model, available only to airport staff, had suddenly appeared in her livestream room.
Thinking of her recent experiences, someone asked in the comments: "Chu Yi, did you get yourself a boyfriend who works in the sky?"
Before long, the top donor changed his username to "Xu Chu's Boyfriend Who Flies in the Sky."
When Xu Chu was in high school, influenced by the romance dramas of the time, she would clasp her hands and make a solemn wish whenever she saw a plane pass overhead. She wished the boy she liked would pay a little more attention to her.
Later, whenever she saw a plane, she still made a solemn wish, but now it was that it would land on time.
Upcoming contemporary romance: Crossing Summer's Hills, coming next~
A master of traditional Chinese medicine and Chinese painting x a geology PhD
Mutual pining / Rivals to lovers / Everyday warmth / Comforting and healing
1,
For a research project, Mu Yi took her students to Jicheng for geological fieldwork. After arriving, they stopped for a short break at a cafe.
As they were about to leave, she spotted a man and a woman at a nearby table, apparently on a blind date.
After a brief, distant greeting, the man grabbed the woman's hand and held it for a long time.
How frivolous, Mu Yi thought. He might look good, but his character was questionable.
Did he think no one could possibly turn him down?
She strode past, dragging her suitcase noisily and making the man look at her in surprise.
Mu Yi certainly didn't look pleased, but when she saw the two of them part hands, she felt her mission was accomplished.
That afternoon, while checking into the guesthouse, Mu Yi saw the handsy man from the cafe again. What a small world.
A guesthouse employee explained, "He's a very skilled traditional Chinese doctor, and he also does a bit of painting. Every summer he comes to the village to escape the heat and sketch, and he treats the elderly villagers for free."
Only then did Mu Yi realize she might have misunderstood earlier. The man had been taking the woman's pulse, not doing anything strange as she had assumed.
But half a day had already passed, and it seemed too late to apologize. So Mu Yi kept a low profile and said nothing, taking her students off to unpack in their rooms.
2,
That night, unable to sleep in an unfamiliar place, Mu Yi met a man painting on the terrace.
Xu Mingchuan wore a thin shirt. A solitary lamp beside him cast a glow over his dark eyes and red lips.
Seeing that he was busy, Mu Yi didn't disturb him. She simply watched as the flower in his painting came alive in even more beautiful colors.
After a long time, the man finally put down his brush. His brows lifted slightly as he fixed her with a sharp gaze. "Had enough of looking yet?"
3,
When Xu Mingchuan first learned that Mu Yi had a PhD, he thought she might have poor eyesight, but at least she had some sense.
Later, he began to think her mind might be a little slower than most people's, too.
Otherwise, how could all his hints and outright declarations have come to nothing?
Theme: Be brave enough to say you love someone
We are hiring an assassin to put a knife on my neck every night before 12 o'clock and force me to save my manuscript, but he cannot actually kill me... Pre-collection of Fantasy's column "The External Relations Department Can't Do It Without Me", please collect it~ Yin Moyu used his acrobatic skills to sign up for an audition for a talent show. After passing, you will become one of the 99 contestants and live in the contestant dormitory. On the eve of her first stage performance, she was privately called out by a staff member wearing a cultural shirt and asked to sign a confidentiality agreement. Yin Moyu: "I understand! It's not advisable to be too public about setting the debut spot in advance. I will definitely work hard not to paddle in the upcoming matches and squeeze in and out of the lane more worthy of my name." Staff: "No, actually this is an agreement that allows you to become a civil servant." Yin Moyu:… "As long as you are willing, you can join the Outreach Department immediately." "External Relations Department?" She repeated, her social skills were indeed pretty good. The staff member said in a sincere tone: "That's right, the Joint Management Department of External Alien Organisms." Yin Moyu twitched his lips: "This sounds completely different!" She couldn't believe that using her special power, which relied on probability, could provide an iron rice bowl. What's more, she often has to go out for work, and she can't guarantee that she will be able to come back and clock in at all times. Eggs cannot be put in the same basket, and after signing the agreement, the game cannot be left behind. But something started to go wrong when the program team invited Mu Zezhi, the inheritor of clay sculpture intangible cultural heritage, as a foreign aid in preparation for the choreography of a certain performance. Yin Moyu showed off the hair tie that had just been delivered by courier to the group members: "Let me tell you, this joint brand is very popular online now. I waited for almost a week to..." Three or four meters away from her, in the corner of the stage, Mu Zezhi was discussing the setting with the staff: "I think if you decide to use this light, change it to a yellow-blue clay sculpture, which will be more eye-catching in the camera." Yin Moyu tilted his head uncontrollably: "I think what Teacher Mu said makes sense. The appropriate combination of light and shadow on the stage is indeed very important." She looked at the members again: "It took me almost a week to finally get it. Look..." Mu Zezhi obviously didn't hear her voice and just continued: "Maybe it would be good to put a plain white porcelain bottle next to it to reduce the impact." She twisted her neck again: "Leave it blank... I haven't thought about it." This time, she didn't even have time to turn around, so she continued the previous topic: "Look at the little details on the hair tie, aren't they quite clever?" Mu Zezhi: "I accidentally got some dust on it. Do you have any tissues?" He was obviously talking to the staff. Her hand showing the hair tie suddenly turned around and reached into her pocket for a tissue. ! Looking at the stunned team members around him, Yin Moyu suddenly realized something. Why does Mu Zezhi have to give way to whatever she is talking about when she opens her mouth? She can't control it at all. From then on, whenever there was a scene where Mu Zezhi appeared, Yin Moyu would automatically open up a new route in his head to serve him first and exclusively. But what she found hard to accept was why Mu Zezhi was the main character. Countless times, Yin Moyu looked up to the sky and screamed in his heart: When can I finish telling my story? In order to find the source, Yin Moyu re-read the confidentiality agreement and determined to fulfill employee benefits first. After joining the company, he could arrange a full physical examination that only internal employees could participate in. After receiving her work badge, punching in, and officially opening the door to the office of the leader of the External Relations Department, she first saw the familiar clay sculptures. At the desk, Mu Zezhi was tying the skeleton with straw. "Leader, are you good?" Yin Moyu's eyes widened. Clay sculpture intangible genetic inheritor x tries to be the second generation of an idol
