"You once let the moonlight shine on me. Now please let me become your light."
1. As a good girl, Zhu Man had lived by the rules for eighteen years.
She listened to her parents and her teachers, and in the end, even got the results she wanted on the college entrance exam.
But when it came time to fill out her university applications, she rebelled, choosing a remote city more than two thousand kilometers from home.
The news spread through town. She became a topic of conversation over the adults' tea, and everyone lamented her choice and said she deserved better.
Zhu Man didn't care in the least. She wanted to know what it felt like to be talked about, and as for the promise that they would attend the same university, she was probably the only one who still remembered it.
Sure enough, when she ran into Liu Shijian again at their class reunion before the start of term, the only thing left between them was the awkward phrase, "Good luck at school."
2. As the most talked-about computer science genius at Yuening University, Liu Shijian was not only exceptionally handsome, but also a first-rate programmer. Yet he was famous for keeping women at a distance.
He was unmoved by advances from women and rejected them coldly.
That is, until the genius walked a drunk girl back to her dorm late one night.
He had never posted on his social media, but to keep Zhu Man from getting the wrong idea, he posted that he wasn't in a relationship.
He agreed to attend a dinner he didn't want to go to, simply because Zhu Man would be there.
3. Zhu Man had never imagined that he liked her, or that he had fallen for her before she fell for him.
She only found out the day she learned that the art department's belle had confessed to him.
Zhu Man, who couldn't hold her liquor, got completely drunk at a party.
Taking advantage of the alcohol, she stopped Liu Shijian. "What's so great about the department belle? A classmate is better."
"Mm, you're right."
The breeze swept away the dizziness of drunkenness. The young man before her looked bright and clear, and the moon seemed especially gentle.
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "So can I be your boyfriend?"

1. When her mother was hospitalized, Lu Nanxi ran into Jiang Jiaze again, the boy she'd had a crush on in high school.
Back then, he had been the star of the school. At the hospital, he still shone, only with a different title.
She thought they would have nothing more to do with each other after her mother was discharged.
She was proven wrong in no time. She agreed to go on the blind date her mother had arranged, only to discover that her date was him.
Lu Nanxi thought it was a whim on his part. He said, "I'm serious. I mean the kind of serious where we can go straight to the marriage registry and get our marriage certificate."
2. Jiang Jiaze's hospital coworkers knew he'd been a lovesick fool for love, only to get dumped.
He'd even fallen seriously ill.
His coworkers gleefully went to his home to visit him.
But Jiang Jiaze opened the door looking radiant, with faint marks visible on his neck.
As soon as they walked in, they heard a sweet, coquettish voice call out to him from the room.
With an expression that said, "I've got a wife," Jiang Jiaze told his coworkers, "My wife's a little clingy. Make yourselves at home."
Then he went into the room, leaving a group of utterly baffled coworkers behind.
What the hell, did we come here just to watch you show off your relationship?
3. Lu Nanxi thought hers had always been an unrequited love, one that got no response.
Later, when she saw that he had kept the anonymous drawing she'd given him back then, she realized that he had been the one whose feelings had gone unanswered all along.

Theme: After the clouds clear, the moon will shine again
I have always dreamed of having a biological brother, but I am an only child!!! Can you please give Tang Li a separate book? He's so handsome.
Um... This mother is really too much.
My sister's Weibo account is abnormal
My family's experience is the same. My brother had two or three cell phones thrown by his father. One of them was not bought for a long time. The main reason is that my brother has been stepping on my father's bottom line. He has been playing games. I asked him to eat once and he was playing games, so we would eat first. He was playing with his mobile phone at home because he forgot to bring information. My dad came home halfway and found that he was pretending to be sick and playing with his mobile phone at home. This is my dad's bottom line. You can't pretend to be sick and take leave at home. My dad thought that his tiredness in studying was caused by his mobile phone. For example, my brother and I have the same pocket money, but sometimes my dad will secretly give me more. He said that girls have a lot of things to buy. After my brother said that he favored girls over boys, he didn't have any. Although my dad threw his phone, there was a new phone for him at home in a few days. I can't do anything to my brother now. He is even more rebellious than I was then.
I might have to be late for something
Is Zhu Man and Liu Shi Jian both making their debut?
Liu Shijian: Yes, just keep looking at me with such admiring eyes.
Hey, that's strange. The singer also changed his name. I remember it used to be two characters.
So Zheng Nanxi changed his surname to Lu?
Read it in one sitting. There is a lot I want to say, but I don't know where to start at the moment. Then hide it in your heart and dreams. I wish the people in the story will always be true and brilliant in their world.
