[Novel blurb]
Outgoing top who blossoms with a little encouragement × socially anxious bottom who avoids talking to people whenever possible
Wen Ming was helping a friend deliver takeout over the weekend. Who knew he’d end up delivering food to an ex-boyfriend?
The world really is too small.
Wen Ming: What do you do when the person ordering takeout is your ex? Asking for a friend. It’s kind of urgent.
He never expected to run into Qian Wenyuan again, let alone like this. The two of them stared at each other across the takeout for a moment.
Qian Wenyuan: “Have things been going badly for you lately?”
Wen Ming: “I’m doing great!”
Five years ago, Qian Wenyuan ended their relationship with a single phone call. Wen Ming never could figure out why.
Five years later, when they meet again, Qian Wenyuan grabs him by the arm and asks, “Will you give me one more chance?”
There are still old issues to work through. Wen Ming is torn, but takes Qian Wenyuan’s flowers while silently berating himself.
Wen Ming sighs. Looks like he really is the type to go back to an old flame.
But if you ask whether going back to an old flame is a good idea?
Wen Ming (nodding furiously): It’s great!
Reader’s guide:

Clueless good-for-nothing master top × grumpy, stubborn disciple bottom
Liu Nanzhou was stubborn and inarticulate from a young age. His family was poor and his parents couldn’t afford to raise him, so they abandoned him.
Fortunately, heaven had left him a way out. An old cultivator rescued him and brought him back to the Tianyao Sect.
He thought he’d cultivate, practice martial arts, and rise to the top. Instead, he ended up returning to simplicity and growing vegetables.
Liu Nanzhou: Huh?
And with his discerning eye, he chose a cheap master who couldn’t even fly on a sword: Qi Wuyu, who couldn’t lift anything heavy, couldn’t carry a thing, and got winded after walking a few steps.
Liu Nanzhou: Huh?
Qi Wuyu never did anything useful, was terrible at cultivation, and had a remarkable talent for getting into trouble.
He took Liu Nanzhou to the lake to catch fish and capsized the boat. He poisoned himself brewing wine, and nearly set the house on fire while lighting festival fireworks.
Liu Nanzhou: …
Don’t get angry. You picked this master yourself, so you have to accept it, even if you have to do so on your knees.
Fortunately, even though Qi Wuyu was usually unreliable, he could be counted on when it mattered. But…
Liu Nanzhou: “You’re a lousy fighter! Stop charging into battle!”
Qi Wuyu: “Huh? Me?”
Liu Nanzhou watched Qi Wuyu stand in front of him, protecting him with a sword brimming with spiritual power.
Liu Nanzhou: “…Who are you?”
After losing his spiritual power, Qi Wuyu had spent his days loafing around the Tianyao Sect. Nobody wanted to choose a good-for-nothing as their master, and he was perfectly happy with the quiet life.
He never expected the sect leader to bring back a kid with poor eyesight who insisted on choosing him as his master. The kid was great in every way: handsome and well-behaved, just far too quiet.
Being quiet as a child was one thing, but he grew up stubborn and quiet, too.
Who would like a taciturn person?
Well… he would.
What was he supposed to do? He was a master who had improper thoughts about his disciple. Wasn’t that the same as being a “beast”?
Qi Wuyu kept his unspeakable feelings tucked away and put on the air of a gentleman, like a sly wolf in disguise.
But loving someone really was torment.
Then, by a twist of fate, Qi Wuyu caught a glimpse of Liu Nanzhou’s inner demon. It had a face exactly like his own.
Qi Wuyu was horrified. “What’s going on?”
Thanks for your support!
Theme: Love isn’t right or wrong
If Shou really broke up because he wanted to live a so-called "normal life", Gong would be too worthless.
Could this reaction be a withdrawal reaction from being sent to some electroshock mental hospital? . .
Shou's mother is so disgusting. After being treated like that, as long as he is a normal person, even if the relationship is not severed, he will never have contact with her for the rest of his life. How can he feel that Shou has no complaints against his mother? It shouldn't be
I feel the same way about ordering milk tea. I think the society is really afraid of communication.
Hey, I do this sometimes. I have already thought about how I want to say something, but when I say it, it changes.
Qian Pingfeng is the most annoying. He always looks like he can understand Xiao Yuan. It seems that he is the only one who is more rational among the couple. Regarding every turning point of Xiao Yuan, he will say a few good words for Xiao Yuan, but in the end he pushes Xiao Yuan into the abyss with a compromising attitude. Sometimes it gives people hope and pain, which only makes people more disappointed.
Gong is really pitiful. For Shou, he still chooses his parents and lover. Does the author really not consider switching to Shou?
Emmm, I feel more sorry for Gong. Originally, this matter is very difficult for both parties in society. If one party lets go, the other party insists. The only one who persists will be hurt, just like Obi holding the pillar.
I'm here again. In fact, I finished watching it a long time ago, but I came here again and found out that there is going to be a radio drama? Damn, I'm a little excited
It's so disgusting that my mother has suffered, why didn't she cut off the relationship?
