Listening to You

Complete. Next book: *Lure You to Sleep*. Weibo: @Chi Nong- Years later, when they met again, someone asked if she still remembered the dazzling, untouchable beauty from No. 1 High School. Xu Ting looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar face before her, suppressed the panic in her eyes, and lowered her gaze, answering calmly, “I don’t remember.” Shen Yanchao leaned against a corner, looking bored. His face was indistinct in the dim light. As she spoke, his lazy gaze settled lightly on her, then withdrew after just a second. The moment their eyes met, Xu Ting’s heartbeat immediately fell out of rhythm. No one knew this was the ninth year she had secretly loved Shen Yanchao. No one knew his name had appeared countless times in her diary and on her drafts. Through their many deliberate and accidental encounters, she thought she had hidden the feelings stirring in her heart so well that no one could detect a thing. What she didn’t know was that when you like someone, your eyes can’t hide it. “Xu Ting, has anyone ever told you…” Shen Yanchao looked at the earlobes turning red enough to drip blood and suddenly chuckled, his expression languid. “Your ears turn red whenever you lie.” Xu Ting instinctively raised a hand to touch her earlobe. It was burning hot. Her heart tightened, and she lifted her head, meeting his deep gaze. “Admit it.” Shen Yanchao looked into her eyes and leaned closer, his warm breath brushing her ear. “Admit that you like me too.” One day, the dusty diary finally came to light, and the secret feelings of a girl in love from her youth could finally be seen in the open.

Blurb for the upcoming *Lure You to Sleep* Everyone knows Chi Yan is arrogant and unruly, always doing as he pleases. By rights, someone like him and Jiang Zhimian should have nothing to do with each other. Yet at a gathering, someone witnessed Chi Yan gripping Jiang Zhimian’s chin and pinning her in a corner against the wall. As they came closer, they heard a low chuckle. The man opposite slowly raised his head, revealing a nonchalant face and a roguish, wicked smile. He slowly leaned toward the person in front of him, like the most intimate of lovers, and whispered in her ear, “Mianmian, tell him who I am to you.” “…” Jiang Zhimian suddenly found it hard to breathe. She didn’t know how much time passed before she heard herself say, “My boyfriend.” The man’s gaze burned, intensely possessive, as if he meant to set her ablaze. The emotion in his eyes was like thick ink that would not dissolve. “Are you going to run away again?” Jiang Zhimian felt her ears and heart burning hot. Her voice trembled. “I won’t run.” But no one knew that Jiang Zhimian had been the one to pursue Chi Yan at first, and that in the end, she was also the one who left without a word.
