The man had sharply defined features and an aloof air. He smoked with an easy, aristocratic languor, while his irreverent profile held a softness unique to East Asians. “Want to come back to my place?” he asked. Cen Ni raised an eyebrow. “Do you have a change of dress?” “No,” he answered, perfectly unapologetic. “But I can get one.” That night, he drove her along the coastal cliffs in his SUV, then bent down to help her into a pair of little heels. They kissed on a terrace in the night breeze, and sparks caught at once. * The flower fields of Provence were blue, just like the blue mist that had surrounded them when they first met. After their brief time together, Cen Ni came to her senses. A fling born on a whim should end with both of them leaving each other behind where their romance began. But Cen Ni hadn't expected that sometimes people are simply fated to cross paths. Even after they had vanished into the crowd, they met again. - Happy ending. The story is grounded in reality, with some fictional locations and details. Recommended: Yan Ze's "Smoky, Rusty Nails" Many years later, when someone in a bar in San Sebastian asked Losa if she had a partner, she raised a hand to show off her ring. A rare, wistful look crossed her face as she nodded. That man was strong, brave, and reserved. He appeared in a neon-lit district in Tijuana, a border city in Mexico, like a bolt of lightning that shattered the darkness behind her. Then he told her: “Keep moving forward, little girl. Don't be afraid.” #They were each a speck of dust, yet dreamed of crossing that sea. ==The sweet marriage-first romance "A Promise That Makes the Heart Flutter" is complete and ready to read== 1. Three months ago, Wen Li and Lu Lianzhou got married. It was Lu Lianzhou who proposed. But after the wedding, she realized he seemed not to like her very much. He was lukewarm toward her, barely came home a few times a month, and even caused a scandal with someone else. After thinking it over again and again, Wen Li asked him for a divorce. He furrowed his brow and refused without a moment's hesitation. “No.” - One day, shocking news broke at the start of the year: T University's meteorology research group had received a private research grant of 200 million yuan. The whole internet was stunned and skeptical. No one could possibly hand over that kind of money! When Wen Li heard the news, she asked him, “Was that you?” Lu Lianzhou replied in his deep, unhurried voice, “Who else could it be?” 2. Later, at a celebration banquet for a Winter Olympics program, Wen Li had just finished a livestream in a dramatic, backless evening gown when a pair of arms wrapped around her waist in the dark. Before she could react, the man had already pinned her against the door. On the other side of it was the livestream area, packed with countless members of the press and thousands of viewers. He lifted her hem slightly, pressed his palm against her coat, and held her close as he kissed her again and again. In the dim light, a tiny black stud in his ear caught a faint, cool gleam. 3. The next day, footage of the scene surfaced online, leaving everyone stunned. The usually proper and aloof president of Lu Ting had lifted a woman's skirt and was wearing an earring? Only Wen Li knew the story behind that earring. She had been afraid of the pain and didn't dare get her ears pierced, so he had felt sorry for her and decided to try it himself. Later, Wen Li curled up in his arms, gently touching his reddened earlobe, feeling guilty and sorry for him. Lu Lianzhou didn't mind. He simply lifted her onto his lap, held her close, and said, “You don't need to feel bad. Now we're even.” -A fair-skinned, beautiful meteorologist X a proud, gentle, domineering CEO -“I don't have great ambitions.
