Blurb:
The moment Jiang Shiqing first met Xiang Zhusheng, she fell in love at first sight.
During her brief stay in the small town, Jiang Shiqing loved following Xiang Zhusheng around, showering him with sweet nothings now and then and savoring the sight of him blushing.
As Jiang Shiqing waited for him to go from keeping strangers at arm's length to gradually falling for her, sure she could win his heart, the town thugs who had long been making trouble for Xiang Zhusheng cornered her in a narrow alley.
The boy who rushed over wore an expression no longer gentle. The scar along his brow made him look even more ruthless. She had heard the rumors about him, but this was the first time Jiang Shiqing had seen this side of him for herself.
All she wanted was for him to unclench his fist, but he retreated to his old position, overcome by his inferiority complex once again. Then Jiang Shiqing left without warning, and neither of them got the chance to say goodbye properly.
Years later, Jiang Shiqing, who had shot to fame with her series of paintings, Bamboo Traces, appeared in a one-on-one interview.
When the host asked the much-discussed question, "What do you do when you meet someone you like?" Jiang Shiqing didn't shy away. Her eyes shone brightly as she looked straight into the camera and answered earnestly, "Me? I make the first move. I make him fall for me, and of course, I never give up."
A few days later, Jiang Shiqing once again drew everyone's attention when she attended a high-society party on the arm of Qin Huai, a young professor of considerable renown in academic circles.
Everyone assumed Qin Huai was the love interest she'd mentioned in the interview and praised them, all missing the possessive love and jealousy in the eyes of Xiang Zhusheng, the talented young CEO who had just made his mark.
As the party went on and glasses clinked, nobody noticed that Jiang Shiqing was already trapped in Ying Zhusheng's arms in the lounge, their cheeks and temples brushing together.
"Do you really not want me anymore?"
Xiang Zhusheng's low voice was plaintive yet restrained as he spoke beside Jiang Shiqing's ear, missing the hunter's smile tugging at her lips.
Jiang Shiqing said nothing. The next moment, her kiss landed on the scar along his brow.
"A-Sheng, be a little more forward. Kiss me."
What a joke. Since the year they first met, Jiang Shiqing had never once given up on loving Xiang Zhusheng.
-
Jiang Shiqing was like a sunflower, happy and beautiful, living forever in the sunshine. Xiang Zhusheng knew that someone like him, living in darkness and damp, could only admire such a radiant, beautiful sunflower from afar. He must never profane her.
He knew that, but what could he do? Faced with her wholehearted affection, he, so restrained and so consumed by his inferiority complex, still fell helplessly in love with her even as he tried to resist.
That time he pushed her away, believing himself clearheaded, became a pain that lasted for years. His unrequited love never let up. He wanted to live in the sunshine with her, stand openly by her side, and belong to her completely. Fortunately, in the end, he got his wish.
In a love-at-first-sight story, one never gave up, and the other couldn't accept defeat. In the end, they chose each other.
A beautiful artist who always makes the first move and never knows when to give up × an insecure, taciturn bamboo-weaving industry mogul who later takes the initiative to fight for love

Blurb for Dreaming Madly in a Lonely Tower:
Cold, eccentric heiress × gentle, composed male butler
He falls for her / long-planned scheme / reunion after years apart
In everyone's eyes, Hang Xiao is an eccentric, difficult heiress. In that cold, lonely tower, one butler after another, hired to care for her, has run away.
Hang Xiao couldn't care less, until Tang Xu became her new butler. His gentle, smiling eyes stirred her mischievous side once more.
At first, he volunteered to adjust her bow and clean her arrows.
Hang Xiao looked at him mockingly, expecting him to be afraid. She drew her bow and said with a laugh, "What should we do? This is crazy."
"It's all right. I'd be happy to." Tang Xu calmly agreed to her request and made himself the target.
Another time, when Hang Xiao happened to learn that Tang Xu liked her, she pretended to be pitiful and sobbed in front of him. "I'm just a cripple."
"Without you, I'm just a cripple too."
Tang Xu knelt on one knee before her, gently tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear and caressing her temple with tender affection.
Hang Xiao only sneered coldly and brushed his hand away, not understanding what he meant. Later, she finally did...
Later still, Hang Xiao sat in her wheelchair and leaned forward with a radiant smile, her soft voice captivating him.
"Kiss me, Tang Xu."
"It would be my honor." He reached out to gently caress her face, his gaze full of tenderness as he whispered reverently.
Hang Xiao had guarded that lonely tower by herself for many years. She had been abandoned, and forgotten.
Then one day, someone came to her side. She scoffed, thinking it was just another dull redemption story.
Tang Xu smiled gently and said, "You said you'd never be able to escape the darkness. But having two people in the dark is better than being alone, isn't it?"

Once again, when Hang Xiao accidentally learned that Tang Xu liked herself, she pretended to be humble and cried in front of him: "I'm just a cripple." "Without you, I would just be a cripple."
