Winter Flame

“He was a blazing flame, spreading wildly through the miserable wreckage of my eighteenth year.”

Redemption | Secret Crush | A Playboy Turns Over a New Leaf | Reunited After a Breakup

Feng Dong’s eighteenth year was dark, miserable, and wretched.

On her birthday, she did the most outrageous thing she had ever done.

In a pitch-black alley, she held a lighter and tried over and over to spark it, but it wouldn’t catch.

A hand reached out from beside her and lent her a flame.

Feng Dong choked until her eyes reddened, watching the fire race from a long, bony hand to the boy’s languid, rebellious eyes.

On a damp winter night, he casually twirled the lighter. A blazing fire spread through her chest.

Chen Beizhi was unruly, arrogant, and wild, doted on by everyone and sharp-eyed when it came to people.

The first time they met, he saw right through the girl’s act of playing innocent.

His rowdy friends cheered him on. With his hands in his pockets, he looked away and listlessly cupped a flame to light his cigarette.

That was also the first time Chen Beizhi misjudged someone.

He didn’t realize that he would later fall for this girl,

only to be thoroughly played by her.

“Fierce passion, a way out when all seems lost.”

Shen Zongjing was a carefree, dazzling young man, a famous playboy from Beijing’s elite circle.

Li Yan was cool and world-weary, living like a hedgehog.

They belonged to different worlds. Their only connection was the university forum when they first enrolled, where their names once appeared one above the other.

#Shen Zongjing + Top Student in Astronomy at T University#

#Li Yan + New Student Roster#

Until a university basketball tournament in City B.

Countless people in the stands chanted Shen Zongjing’s name.

Outside the venue, there were only two people.

Shen Zongjing pinched the capsule in his cigarette between two fingers. It popped with a click. Li Yan’s hair brushed his collar as she spoke softly.

“Shen Zongjing, I really liked that one.”

“You broke it, so you have to replace it.”

His phone vibrated. It was a call from his friend Zhou Hao, Li Yan’s half-brother on her mother’s side. He teased, “Picking up girls?”

The lighter clicked. Their breaths mingled, soft and tangled.

Half a minute later, the earring she had left behind the night before was in Li Yan’s hand. She lowered her head to put it on while Shen Zongjing held his cigarette and lazily answered the call: “Picking up your sister.”

“What no one knew was that Su Yili had been secretly writing a novel for four years, keeping it hidden from everyone.

Her novel was filled with the secrets of her crush, and its male lead was based on Cen Ye.

At the time, Cen Ye lounged against the back of his chair, his dark gaze passing over Su Yili, whose high ponytail made her look just like a student.

He remembered wrapping an arm around her waist, her ponytail brushing his Adam’s apple.

Cen Ye smiled faintly, his throat itching. He said, ‘Yes.’”
