Falling for You, Against All Odds

1. Shen Ci is notorious at Beicheng No. 1 High School for being unruly and impossible to tame, carefree and arrogant. He skips class, gets into fights, hangs out at bars, and acts like he owns the place.

Then a new student transferred into Class 8, Grade 11: a lovely girl from Jiangnan, with bright eyes, pretty teeth, a gentle nature, and a quiet demeanor.

Unfortunately, she's mute.

And, as luck would have it, Shen Ci becomes her deskmate.

Everyone feels sorry for her and waits for the day the beautiful girl runs away in tears.

On their first day as deskmates, Shen bumps over Lu Sang's water cup, ruining the drawings she'd spent two nights working on.

The boy looks indifferent. The beautiful girl doesn't get angry. She just wipes the water off his desk.

On their second day as deskmates, Lu Sang sees Shen cornering a group of vocational school students against a wall.

Lu Sang doesn't run. She walks up and obediently takes out her pocket money, holding out her palm with a handful of colorful candies. A faint dimple appears on her cheek.

On their Nth day as deskmates, why is the beautiful girl still Shen's deskmate?

2. Everyone knows the Lu family of Beicheng was blessed with twins that year. Their daughter, Lu Yan, can play music and paint, and she's beautiful. She's the future marriage partner of the Shen family of Beicheng.

Few people know that the Lu family also has an illegitimate daughter named Lu Sang.

On Lu Yan's birthday, the Lu family hosts a party for Beicheng's elite. She is showered with affection, and everyone envies her.

On her own birthday, Lu Sang plays by herself in the back garden, where a group of rich hooligans corner and bully her.

Shen Ci sees them, his eyes bloodshot, and beats them with ruthless fury.

Everyone is afraid to approach.

Only Lu Sang walks up to him step by step and wraps her arms around the boy's waist, calling out, "A Ci..."

These are the first words she has ever spoken. The out-of-control boy freezes, then laughs hoarsely.

"Sangsang, be good and call me big brother."

Later, the little mute becomes a little stutterer, and Shen Ci teases her all day.

Lu Sang is easy to fluster, and he loves seeing her get embarrassed and worked up, her cheeks bright red.

Later, the bastard does something unforgivable, and Lu Sang stops talking to him.

For the first time, Shen Ci's cool, languid face shows panic, and he tries everything he can to win her back.

Lu Sang remains popular in college.

One day, Shen Ci catches her accepting someone else's love letter and pins the girl against the wall.

"Who else do you want to like besides me?"

"I l-like..."

Thinking she is about to name someone else, the boy kisses her until her cheeks are flushed. His thin lips curl into a smile.

"You were so bold, weren't you? Kiss me back."

- A wild, untamed boy who eventually falls for her gentle, sincere nature.

Next book: Crazy in Love

Arrogant playboy x sweet, well-behaved girl from a fallen family

First love / happy ending / three-year age gap / playboy turns over a new leaf

They first meet in an alley at the end of Fallen Street, where she catches him in a flirtatious moment.

The night is dim. The girl leaning against his chest is blushing, while he looks languid and indifferent.

He suddenly lifts his eyes and glances toward the corner, shaking ash from his cigarette. He gives a half-smile. "Had enough of the show?"

Jiang Mian has a first-love kind of face, looking gentle and sweet, but she's colder than anyone. Knowing they aren't suited for each other, she takes the long way around him more than once.

Until one day, he corners her against a wall. The little girl's lashes flutter, and a light pinch leaves a red mark on her slender wrist.

The boy curls his lip and sneers. "Are you really that afraid of me?"

Jiang Mian gives a little shake of her head, then slips a small hand out of her sleeve and hooks her pinky around his. Her voice is so soft and sweet. "Would you like to date me...?"

*

Later, Young Master Xu gets a phone call at a party. A girl hiccups through her tears. She sounds drunk, and her threats come out like a pout.

"Xu Lin, you better not come back."

His friends laugh. They're used to seeing him flirt with all kinds of girls, but it's the first time they've seen a rare look of panic on his face. He turns and leaves at once.

In a shadowy corner where no one can see them, the man bends down and coaxes her softly. "Don't cry, little tyrant."

Later, Jiang Mian asks to break up.

Xu Lin looks at her cool, strong little face. The glowing end of his cigarette burns his skin, but he doesn't notice. His voice is hoarse and bitter. "Jiang Mian, if I ever fall in love with you again, I'll be a dog."

She was the one who made the first move, and she was the one who walked away.

They meet again at the high school's centennial celebration, where Jiang Mian gives a speech as an outstanding teacher representative.

Her modern Chinese-style qipao draws everyone's attention. Her face is porcelain-pale and clear, and her figure is slender and elegant.

Among the honored guests, Xu Lin wears a suit. His lips are thin, his nose straight, and his dark, deep eyes look as if they're hiding a fire.

After the event, he corners her against a dim wall on campus.

He kneels on one knee, humbling himself to put her shoes on, his forehead resting against her skirt. His eyes are red as he says, "Mianmian, love me one more time, okay?"

#I set aside my arrogance and bow to you alone.

Coming soon: Wildfire Never Sleeps

1. When Qin Wu was sixteen, her mother sent her to a small town in the south without giving her a choice.

The girl is pretty, with delicate features and a pure beauty that makes it hard to look away. Even her little leather shoes are decorated with lustrous pearls. She steps out of a black car, completely out of place on the simple old street.

The first time she meets Pei Rang, he leans lazily against his motorcycle and deliberately dirties her white cotton socks with lace trim.

But this little princess from Beicheng is impossibly good-tempered.

The next day, she knocks on Pei Rang's door with a steaming bowl of taro dumplings. Her almond-shaped eyes shine, and her voice is sweeter than a red bean rice cake. "Big brother, my grandma made taro dumplings and asked me to bring you some to try."

Pei Rang gives a soft scoff and says arrogantly, "Just leave them there."

That night, Pei Rang spends half the night with an upset stomach.

The rice cakes were filled with sesame after all. This little sweet bun was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

He licks his lips and smirks coldly. Now they have a score to settle.

2. Pei Rang of Lichuan High School is arrogant, unruly, and defiant. He is feared by everyone in the entire town of Gusu.

At first, he ignores the princess who has just transferred from Beicheng and snaps at her coldly whenever she comes near. "Stay away from me."

Then one night, his friends head out to have fun and spot a familiar figure at the end of the street. They all stop in their tracks

A little girl, a head shorter than the boy, is following behind him. Afraid of the dark, she tugs at their leader's clothes and says softly, "Rang Rang, slow down. I can't keep up."

R-Rang Rang?

His friends feel a chill run down their spines. With their leader's nasty temper, he's sure to beat her in a rage.

But the reckless, upright boy obediently slows his pace, then bends down to tie the little girl's shoelace.

"..."

What the hell, has the world gone crazy?

3. The day Qin Wu leaves the town, she doesn't get to see Pei Rang one last time.

She doesn't know that that night, Pei Rang stands outside her house in despair, smoking, the corners of his eyes red. He stands silently in the rain all night, looking more broken than anyone has ever seen him.
