Blazing Romance

[1] On a night of pouring rain, Xi Man crouched helplessly outside the Xi family home. An umbrella covered her head. Shen Wen, refined and gentle, reached out to her with boundless tenderness. "Manman, don't cry. Your Third Brother is here to take you home." From then on, Shen Wen kept her by his side and treasured her like a jewel. Everyone thought they had a stable relationship and would get married sooner or later. Once, Xi Man accompanied Shen Wen to a friend's wedding. At the banquet, a friend teased him, "Shen Wen, when are you and Xi Man getting married?" Shen Wen sipped his wine, unconcerned. "Don't be ridiculous. I think of Manman as my little sister." Xi Man forced a polite smile. "Don't get the wrong idea. Third Brother and I are like siblings." She knew Shen Wen's ex-girlfriend was coming back from abroad, and that they would be getting married soon. Before the banquet was over, Xi Man slipped away. She quietly packed her things and moved out of the Shen family home. That night, when Shen Wen came home and saw the empty house, with not a trace of Xi Man left, his heart suddenly felt empty too. [2] Xi Man moved into the home of Jian Zhuobai, Shen Wen's sworn enemy. At the Jian family home, she looked at the unruly, aloof man before her. "You said that if I moved in, you'd help him close that deal." Jian Zhuobai pressed his tongue against his back teeth, his expression unreadable. "You care about him that much? You'd do anything for him?" Xi Man said nothing. Shen Wen had looked after her for seven years. This was the last thing she would do for him. After this, they would be even, and neither would owe the other anything. At the time, Xi Man never imagined that this agreement with Jian Zhuobai would make her leave her heart there completely. [3] The guys hadn't seen Jian Zhuobai for several days, so they all went to his house to look for him. On the living room sofa, Jian Zhuobai had a beauty pinned beneath him, an unusual sight. His eyes were red with jealousy. "Has Shen Wen ever held you like this?" Xi Man gently shook her head. "Has he ever kissed you?" "No." Xi Man wrapped her arms around his neck, clinging to him. "How do you kiss? Teach me." The guys: "!!!" Isn't that the little white rabbit who went missing from Shen Wen's house? Shen Wen's been going crazy looking for her. How did Brother Zhuo hide her here??? Only later did Xi Man learn that on the night Shen Wen took her away from the Xi family home, Jian Zhuobai had been there too. Thinking back on that night, the man gave a self-mocking smile, his dark eyes filled with dejection. He gazed out the window at the rain, his voice so quiet it was almost inaudible.
