After the breakup, her ex-boyfriend was mocked by a group of buddies while they chatted. Then he spotted Zhou Jiachen, who rarely went to bars, and went over to pour him a drink.

"Bro, do me a favor."

After hearing what he wanted, Zhou Jiachen lounged against the back of the sofa, toying with a black hair tie of unknown origin.

He curled his lips in a smirk.

"Are you sure?"

Later, her ex called gleefully, boasting that he could make Zhou Jiachen break up with her with just one word.

She put her phone on speaker and tossed it onto the quilt. "Zhou Jiachen, someone wants you to break up with me."

"Like hell I will," he said with a laugh.

★ The blurb for Don't Pretend to Be Asleep follows:

Before the truth came out, her impression of Xu Jingshan was limited to "an annoying friend of my ex."

Even when her ex occasionally got angry, he only dared to curse Xu Jingshan behind his back. He never dared to fall out with him openly.

An only son from one of Huajing's most famous old families. No one dared offend him.

At a gathering, everyone got dead drunk. He Lu dragged her heavy legs out of her seat and helped everyone to the guest rooms.

On her last trip, she saw him slumped over the table, breathing evenly.

She glanced down and let out a dry laugh. "Stop pretending to sleep. I know you're not drunk."

He raised an eyebrow without a word, sat up, and didn't move. He casually stretched out his arm and hooked his finger around hers, as if this were a familiar routine.

"Then shall we go back to the room?"

Xu Jingshan paused briefly, then added in a low voice, "Not the guest room, and not the bed he slept in."
