This is a story about an ongoing secret crush.
Inspired by a "friend."
A disciplined top student / a refined scoundrel of a man, and a highly empathetic / mischievous girl.
Maybe everyone has someone they treasure in their heart. That's how Mu Jiu is. As a child, she wished she could be Sheng Wenxuan's only little sister. When she grew up, she wanted to be his girlfriend. What was she supposed to do?
That's how Sheng Wenxuan is. What was he supposed to do when the female friend he'd secretly loved for six years, from high school through college, suddenly confessed to him?
That's how Zhang You is. Fate turned a promise into a knot in his heart, and little by little, the "little tyrant" also fell for the "dark-skinned girl" who was always too proud to admit defeat... They had already taken 99 steps. What should they do to take that final step?
A girl leaves, and new affections keep piling up. Is it a long-awaited confession or stubborn greed? Is it the fleeting thrill of something new, or the longing for someone's companionship?
Maybe the characters here aren't as perfect as those in other stories, and maybe they have plenty of flaws. Maybe that's because I don't treat this as an ordinary debut work that simply showcases innocent romance. What I want to emphasize is cherishing one another! Cherish your family, your partner, your friends!
This story will have plenty of messy drama and melodramatic twists, but perhaps that's exactly what a person's real life is like.
Art comes from life, but rises above it.
I hope you'll find a moment of comfort for your heart in this book, and find someone you're willing to take that final step with.
Whether it gets a happy or bad ending depends on how things go, because this secret crush is still ongoing!!!
