Summer Fields

[Main story complete. Next up: Those Adventurous Dreams of Yours]

[School life, mutual pining, reunion after a separation, rekindled romance]

In high school, Ning Anran was quiet and kept a low profile, while Zhou Siyuan was the center of attention, making headlines every day.

One competition brought the two of them, who should have continued on parallel paths, into each other's lives. Rumors about the two of them began to circulate around school.

Hearing their names linked together filled Ning Anran with secret delight, but she kept a clear head and maintained her distance from him.

Who could have guessed that on the day before summer vacation, Zhou Siyuan would stand beneath the flagpole with his hands in his pockets and tell her, "Ning Anran, let me clear this up. I like you. It's not just a rumor."

Behind the boy, the setting sun hung just above the horizon, staining half the sky red.

He smiled at her. "What about you? Do you want to clear things up too?"

After the last college entrance exam, Zhou Siyuan, who had handed in his paper early, took Ning Anran's hand outside the exam hall without a hint of hesitation.

Their four years at university left everyone envious of their relationship. Their friends all thought they'd go from school uniforms to wedding dresses, but in reality, they broke up after graduation and went their separate ways, never to hear from each other again.

Seven years after their breakup, on a rainy afternoon, in the vast Gobi Desert, a colleague who had come to the rescue grabbed Ning Anran from behind as she slid toward a deep ravine.

She turned around, not yet having had a chance to thank them, and saw a face she had not seen in years but still knew so well.

Their eyes met as rain poured down like a waterfall.

Through the curtain of rain, Ning Anran looked down and made out the ID number on the badge of the man's rain-soaked blue uniform: 0.

Wentian Project, Commander No. 0.

Zhou Siyuan: "Since I was fourteen, I've had only one wish for my birthday:

To talk about the universe with her beneath the stars."

The first year Wu Ying liked Ji Yutong, she tapped his shoulder with a book. "Be a good boy and study. No dating before you're older."

The second year, she rose onto her toes and kissed his cheek beneath a sky full of stars. "Happy birthday. Welcome to adulthood."

The third year, she took his restless hand, her eyes brimming with playful laughter. "You don't know how? That's okay. Big sister will teach you."

From the first moment he saw Ji Yutong at seventeen, Wu Ying never took his eyes off her. Unfortunately, her eyes and heart were full of too many other people and things.

Ten years passed in a flash. They each made their mark, becoming decisive investment-industry executives, President Ji and President Wu.

When they meet again, she openly declares her love and presses him at every turn, while he pretends to give way and leads her along step by step.

At last, on a dark, quiet night, Ji Yutong traps him on the sofa. "Have you already forgotten me?"

Wu Ying lowers his eyes, hiding the feelings surging within them. "I came back to get married."

Ji Yutong glances at the ring in his palm, his "proof," then bends down to his ear and says with a smile, "Junior, I might not be able to fit into the ring you used to propose to me six years ago anymore."

Exposed, Wu Ying grabs her by the waist and rolls over, pinning her into the sofa. He gazes into her eyes, his expression both tender and beguiling. "You've played with me for so long, Senior. How about we play all the way to the end?"
