[Gentle, melancholic girl] X [Cold-faced, warm-hearted guy]

Blurb 1:

Shen Yu's younger sister started dating someone online through a game. In his photo, the boy had broad shoulders, a slim waist, and stood six feet tall. He wore a No. 1 High School uniform, and his jump shot was sharp and clean. When he tilted his head and smiled, he looked carefree and cocky.

Xie Yuyou's younger brother also started dating someone through a game. In her photo, the girl had delicate features and a gentle expression. She wore a No. 2 High School uniform, and when she hugged the ragdoll cat in her arms and smiled, little dimples appeared in her cheeks.

On the day the two met in person, Shen Yu and Xie Yuyou were ordered to fill in at the last minute. Sporting thunderous usernames like “I Want to Hold Your Hand” and “I Want to Hug You,” they went to meet their siblings' online dates, only to run into their homeroom teacher, who was on a blind date...

Blurb 2:

Years later, Shen Yu, who had just moved into a new home, and Xie Yuyou, who had just returned home, met again.

A single door stood between them.

Shen Yu: “I signed a lease. I have the right to live in this apartment.”

Xie Yuyou: “But as the owner, I don't remember signing any lease.” When the misunderstanding was cleared up, the two people who should never have had anything to do with each other found themselves connected in two new ways.

They were both roommates and landlord and tenant.

Blurb 3:

Xie Yuyou never drank heavily, but once he went to a bar and drank in silence for half the night.

His friend thought he'd been dumped and tried to comfort him. “When one door closes, another opens. There are plenty of fish in the sea.”

Xie Yuyou only smiled bitterly and shook his head. No one knew that in his heart, Sang Yu was Dong Yu. There had never been a second answer to this question. There was one answer, and one alone.

When Shen Yu was young, she went through a terrible experience that nearly changed the course of her entire life.

Afterward, she remained stuck in a downward spiral, with everything going wrong.

As time passed, she seemed to lose her zest for life, drifting through each day like a walking corpse. But one day, she realized a ray of sunlight had begun to seep into her dark world.

Slowly, the gloom lifted, and the light returned.

The sky brightened, and the rain finally cleared.

He came into her world, and from then on, spring came in the depths of winter, and flowers bloomed on a withered tree.

Theme: I hope you become the best version of yourself.
