The Shadow of the Stars

The full story costs 1.5 yuan. Thank you for supporting the official release.

1. The most outrageous thing Shi Sui ever did was not leave the garden behind the banquet hall right away that day.

[No one knew that the cold, fickle man had once been her faith, a ray of light illuminating the dark corners of her world.]

Shi Sui's past was a muddy hillside and a seemingly endless stretch of dirt pits. Back then, she fell for someone, but she knew their worlds were as far apart as the stars in the sky and the reefs deep beneath the sea. They were worlds apart.

But she could never have imagined that many years later, that person would stand before a floor-to-ceiling window bathed in the evening light, look down at her tenderly, and say, "You are my every moment, my every year."

2. In the most miserable days of her first year of middle school, Shi Sui met an upperclassman from the high school division.

In the pouring rain, she lay dazed on the boy's back. The rain roared in her ears, but one steady, beautiful voice, like a cello, was forever etched into her heart:

"Study hard, get into college, and go to the capital. Then no one will dare bully you again."

3. During their time together, Shi Sui did everything Lu Yuli asked. He thought she had fallen in love with him over time. Until one day, the girl lay unconscious in bed with a high fever, her fingers clutching the hem of his clothes as she sobbed softly, "Senior Lu..."

Blurb:

When Shi Qianyu was fifteen, she already knew that she and Su Jin would be together for the rest of their lives.

It wasn't just her who knew. Her aunts and uncles knew, too, as did all the other kids in the compound.

So whenever Su Jin angrily grabbed her by the back of her collar and pulled her into his arms in front of all their childhood friends, saying coldly, "She's mine," Shi Qianyu couldn't help rolling her eyes.

Are you crazy? No one's stealing your wife!

*

After she made him mad again one time...

Shi Qianyu rested her chin on his shoulder and complained aggrievedly, "You're so mean."

Su Jin's expression was calm as he asked nonchalantly, "How am I mean?"

"You're just so mean!"

Su Jin pinched her cheek with a displeased expression. "I'll give you one more chance."

"Am I mean?"

Shi Qianyu, looking pitiful: "N-no..."

"Did you do something wrong?"

"I did, waah..."

"How should we punish a naughty child who lies?"

Shi Qianyu: ... (crying)

Su Jin: "Don't pretend. I know you like it."
