Love Me One More Time, Darling

Wife-Doting Devoted Husband VS. Fussy Little Drama Queen

Jiang Yu had been secretly in love with Su Yanxin, the only daughter of the Su family, for as many years as her mother had worked as a housekeeper for them.

Even knowing that Su Yanxin had someone else in her heart whom she couldn't forget, and that Jiang Yu was just a dispensable diversion, Jiang Yu still agreed without hesitation when Su Yanxin asked her to date.

The result was predictable.

Less than half a month later, Su Yanxin broke up with her and promptly went abroad. The long-nursed fantasy of a relationship was brought to a complete end.

Six years later.

By a twist of fate, they met again. Su Yanxin had become a down-on-her-luck actress, and Jiang Yu took her in at the talent agency where she worked. Since they spent so much time together, their nosy coworkers started asking about their relationship.

Jiang Yu was remarkably calm about it. She gave a faint smile and said, "We're friends who haven't been in touch for years."

That night.

In the dead of night, Jiang Yu was woken by the restless person in her arms. Like a kitten, she rubbed her head against Jiang Yu and kissed her, then asked pitifully, "Jiang Yu, don't you love me anymore?"

Faced with a question she was asked eight hundred times a day,

Jiang Yu: "..."

Forthcoming novel: Who Exactly Is Back in Her Hometown?

After suffering from insomnia for two months, Xiao Jiahe quit her job in Beijing and returned to her hometown.

On a winter street in Yuncheng.

One was a passenger, just back from the big city, dressed in designer clothes and looking like she had it all.

The other was a driver, recently released and still wearing the same old plaid shirt, down on her luck.

Liang Shi had changed a lot since they last met.

She used to take even the harshest things Xiao Jiahe said with an unconcerned smile, teasing her to cheer her up.

Now whenever they met eyes, Liang Shi's gaze would dart away, her smile strained with awkwardness.

If Xiao Jiahe didn't speak first, it seemed Liang Shi would never say a word.

Annoyed by the sight of it, Xiao Jiahe asked her outright if she wanted to be together. As expected, she was rejected.

"You know I can't accept being with a woman."

Xiao Jiahe nodded and respected her wishes. She never brought it up again.

They lived in the same city, each minding her own business.

Then, on New Year's Day, Xiao Jiahe's former coworkers came from Beijing to visit. Xiao Jiahe rented Liang Shi's car and asked her to show them around.

At lunch, her coworkers saw how hard Xiao Jiahe was working to start a business in her hometown alone, so they urged her to return to her old company. They all missed her.

They meant well, and Xiao Jiahe couldn't refuse too directly. She smiled and said she was thinking about it.

That night, a woman who supposedly couldn't accept being with another woman cornered Xiao Jiahe in the hallway, kissed her, and absolutely refused to let her leave.

"Does what you said before still stand?"

"I don't know what you're talking abou, "

"I like you."
