In her senior year of high school, after a group dinner, Xu Chu worked up the courage to let the air out of her bicycle tire so the boy she liked would have to take her home.
At her door, after the bike stopped, she was still sitting sideways on the back seat, her toes touching the ground. Her hand, pinching a tiny bit of the boy's clothes, trembled. "Yan Lie, after the college entrance exams are over, would you do me a favor?"
The boy didn't turn around. "Sorry, I don't feel that way about you."
As if stung, Xu Chu immediately jumped off the back of the bike, clutched her schoolbag, and fled.
After graduating from college, she became a moderately popular independent singer online. At a class reunion, she ran into Yan Lie again after eight years apart.
Her first reaction was to shut the private room door and pretend she hadn't seen him.

Everyone at Beicang Airport who knows Yan Lie knows he's diligent at work and keeps to himself in his personal life.
Plenty of long-legged beauties have been interested in him, but he's rejected them time and again.
Later, just when everyone thought Yan Lie might only have a passion for the sky, one day near the end of the year, he got off his flight and, unusually, hurried to finish work.
When a colleague questioned him, he simply said, "Sorry, my girlfriend is waiting for me to go try on dresses with her."

Xu Chu livestreams about once a week to thank her fans.
Recently, eagle-eyed viewers noticed a limited-edition model in her streaming room, the kind only airport staff can get.
Thinking about how her two latest songs were both about the sky, someone asked in the comments: Chu Yi, did you get yourself a boyfriend who's in the sky?
Before long, the top donor changed his username to "Xu Chu's Boyfriend Who Flies in the Sky."
When Xu Chu was in high school, influenced by the romantic dramas she watched, whenever she saw a plane pass overhead, she would clasp her hands and make a heartfelt wish for the boy she liked to notice her a little more.
Later, she still made a heartfelt wish whenever she saw a plane, but now she wished it would land on time.

Pre-collection of "Meeting Thistle", please collect it ↓ Traditional Chinese Medicine + Traditional Chinese Painting Master x Doctor of Geology Two-way secret love/enemies become lovers/fireworks/warmth healing Copywriting: 1, For a certain scientific research project, Mu Yi took her students to Jicheng for a geological survey. After landing, they took a short break in a coffee shop. When she was about to leave, a few steps away, she saw a man and a woman who seemed to be on a blind date. After Alien said hello, the man grabbed the other person's hand and didn't let go for a long time. How frivolous, Mu Yi thought, feeling that although this man was good-looking, his temperament was questionable. Do you think that no one will reject him? She walked quickly and dragged the suitcase loudly, causing the man to look at her strangely. Of course Mu Yi didn't have a good expression, but when she saw the two of them separated their hands, she felt that she had achieved her goal. When checking in at the B&B in the afternoon, Mu Yi saw the guy from the coffee shop again, and it was a close encounter. The B&B employee noticed: "That is a Chinese medicine doctor who is very good at medical skills. He can also draw some paintings. He comes to the village every summer to escape the heat and do some collecting. He also helps treat the elderly in the village for free." Only then did Mu Yi realize that there seemed to be a misunderstanding before. The action of touching the hand was actually to check the pulse, rather than some strange behavior that she understood. But after half a day, it seemed that the good opportunity to apologize was lost, so Mu Yi lowered her presence, chose to keep silent, and took the students to their rooms to clean up. 2. That night, because Mu Yi was not used to insomnia late at night, she met a man who was sketching on the terrace. Xu Mingchuan was wearing a thin shirt, and a lone lamp stood beside him, which made his eyes and lips red. Seeing that he was busy, Mu Yi did not disturb him and just watched quietly, seeing that the flower showed more moving colors under his painting. After a long time, the man finally put down his pen, raised his eyebrows slightly, and stared at him sharply: "Haven't you seen enough?" 3. When Xu Mingchuan first knew that Mu Yi was a female doctor, he thought that this person might just have bad eyesight, but her brain was still fine. Later, I felt that my brain was probably slower than ordinary people. Otherwise, I have expressed and hinted so many times, but to no avail.
Wow, it's actually finished. My eyes made me pee.
