In their second year of high school, someone slipped a pair of rabbit-ear earrings into Zhou Fan's desk.

Zhou Fan had no idea who it was. In fact, throughout her entire high school career, she didn't even know Liang Shuze existed.

*

At a gathering of the sign language club, Zhou Fan wore the rabbit-ear earrings, which sparkled beautifully under the lights. A friend asked where she had gotten them.

Zhou Fan smiled and said someone had given them to her in her second year of high school, though she didn't know who.

A boy laughed and asked, "Isn't the club president from your high school? He's well-connected. Maybe he could help you find out."

The conversation turned to Liang Shuze, and everyone looked at him. Zhou Fan did too.

Liang Shuze sat in the middle of the group. His eyes were jet-black, his jaw sharp and strong, and his whole presence was dazzling.

She blinked. Someone like Liang Shuze seemed born to be the darling of fate. Why would he bother helping with something so trivial?

Just as she'd expected, Liang Shuze merely said in a languid voice, "Do I look like I have nothing better to do?"

Later, Zhou Fan happened to walk into a brand-name store, where she learned that the rabbit-ear earrings she wore were a limited-edition collaboration from that brand.

Zhou Fan froze for a moment. A thought crossed her mind, and she asked a staff member to look up who had bought the earrings.

A few minutes later, the list was placed in front of her.

She turned the page with her hand. September sunlight filled the paper, and Liang Shuze's name stood out on the first page.

At that moment, Zhou Fan stood still for a long time, as if time had come to a complete stop.

*

Liang Shuze had been the darling of fate since birth, always arrogant and looking down on everyone. It all came to an end on a summer day in 2014, when he met Zhou Fan again.

[Blurb]

-

The day before graduation exams ended, all the students in the class were writing farewell messages to one another.

Wen Cheng was writing with her head down when her deskmate suddenly turned to her and asked, "Why did you write 'May your future be bright' for the rest of us, but 'Hope we can meet again someday' for Duan Cong?"

Her deskmate was loud and boisterous, making no attempt to lower her voice. Every gaze in the classroom turned toward them.

Wen Cheng's ears burned. Mortified, her heart racing, she watched as Duan Cong walked into the classroom with a ball in his hands. He looked cool and lazy. To everyone's surprise, he spoke in a casual voice the next second: "What's wrong with seeing me? I'm not that annoying, am I?"

The classroom fell silent at once.

Wen Cheng's heart pounded like a drum. The moment Duan Cong casually came to her rescue was probably the closest she had ever been to him during all those years of secretly loving him.

-

They met again three years later.

In her third year of college, Wen Cheng went to an internship, and as it happened, her boss was Duan Cong's childhood friend.

Duan Cong was at a company gathering one evening. Wen Cheng's heart still raced, and she assumed he must have forgotten her by now.

But Duan Cong unexpectedly lost a game, and was asked which woman there he was most interested in.

Duan Cong gave her name.

After the gathering, Wen Cheng and Duan Cong ran into each other in the hallway.

They looked at each other.

Duan Cong said, "About just now..."

Wen Cheng parted her lips and considerately said, "I know. We're classmates, so it's fine to mention me. It would be rude to name some other woman you don't know."

Duan Cong curled his lip, leaned closer, and said,

"What do you know?"

"You're the one I'm most interested in. I've been into you all these years. How could you not tell?"
