An avoidant-attached woman who talks nonsense × a cool, rational Tibetan man with the charm of chocolate milk
* An honest man gets toyed with, left heartbroken, and robbed of all reason.

After quitting her university teaching job, Li Tang signed up for a seven-day, six-night tour of Tibet.
The guide took them to see a sky burial site. She leaned against the peeling back door, breathing oxygen, then looked up and spotted her former lover in the distance, dusty from the road.
He was 1.9 meters tall, wearing a loose blue-and-yellow Tibetan robe with overlapping fronts. A turquoise earring dangled from his left ear. The first time his amber eyes met hers, they instantly turned sharp.
The people around them called him "Jiacuo." Li Tang remembered that she used to call him "Jiangchu."
Back then, they had been in bed, their clothes in disarray. His slightly long black hair hung over the tip of his nose. His lips were moist, and through the strands of hair, a pair of beautiful dark brown eyes peeked out.
But his pupils were unfocused, and his lashes fluttered up, damp with desire.
Sometimes, at moments like this, Li Tang forgot her own name and became his "cham mo."

On the night Jiangchu returned to Nagqu after their breakup, a friend invited him to dinner and sighed repeatedly, saying that the moment he left Tibet, he had run into a top-tier seductress and would just have to accept his fate.
They met again later.
Li Tang went to Zaki Temple to pray to the God of Wealth and casually tossed him a friendship bracelet. Jiangchu frowned.
Li Tang struggled up a mountain and leaned on his wrist for support. Jiangchu frowned.
Li Tang did nothing at all, just stood there, and Jiangchu still frowned.
She figured he resented her for the breakup and found her irritating, and felt a little guilty that she had hurt him so much. So she kindly and diligently tutored his younger brother.
Jiangchu appeared without a sound, leaning against the doorframe. His distant gaze fell on the two of them, then he coolly looked away.
"Even if you're trying to butter me up, I'm not going back to Yunnan with you that easily."
"And stop praising him in front of me. We don't have the backward custom of brothers sharing a wife here."
Li Tang: ?
Who asked you?

Jiangchu: I'm hard to appease.
Jiangchu: This time, I absolutely will not be her dog.
Li Tang: Breathe.
Jiangchu: (Calmly packing his bags) I'll go with you.
#They broke up but still want to be together#
#Master, how did you break your vows and lose your cool again?#
