[This is an embarrassing old work. It's also pretty chuuni. Better not read it, sob.]
It was a long-planned love, yet one so humble it was buried deep in the heart.
Yuan Zhixi thought that no matter how high her IQ was, she couldn't escape the clutches of love.
She also wanted to whisper in his ear, "I've liked you for a long time."
Then came the voice beside her, the one she'd never grow tired of hearing.
"What a coincidence. So have I."

*Original title: Love's Scoundrel: Nothing More Than a Passing Encounter.
*Um, this was an outline-less story I started ages ago, in August 2018. I originally planned to make the heroine a mess, but I didn't expect to wreck her character before even getting to the subplot, sob sob sob. So the story as a whole is sweet.
*Also written in a super-terrible elementary-school style, sob sob sob.
*I'll sort out my thoughts and work on an outline, then update slowly. (Holds head and cries.)
Theme: Renewed vitality.
