My loves, the full version is really cheap! iOS payments cost a little more, so you can use Android or the website instead!

I won't respond to check-ins or reviews about discrepancies caused by pirated copies. Please support the official version, my lovelies! The full version costs about as much as a cup of Mixue Ice Cream and Tea!

My ongoing novel, Has It Rained Today?, is now open for follows. Here's the blurb:

1.

Bo Zhaoran first met Qin Zhiheng at a birthday party. Through the lights and clinking glasses, she didn't even notice her fingertips had turned white from how hard she was pinching them.

On a gloomy, rainy afternoon, she deliberately appeared beside him and asked, her meaning unclear, "Can I share your umbrella?"

Qin Zhiheng didn't refuse.

She'd succeeded in getting close to him for her own reasons.

He let her get close.

2.

The day they broke up, Jinggang was in the middle of a heat wave. For the first time in her life, Bo Zhaoran lost her composure. She spoke stiffly, one word at a time: "From the very beginning, I was only trying to deceive you. The game is over now."

Qin Zhiheng fell silent for a long time. He took her wrist and answered seriously, "A-Zhao, think this through. Neither of us is the type to turn back easily."

She heard the clear, calm tone in her own voice as she agreed.

The weather was sunny then, but a torrential rain fell in her heart.

3.

When they met again, she slipped under his umbrella, tipsy, and looked up at him. "Can I share your umbrella?"

She asked exactly as she had back then, but this time Qin Zhiheng refused.

Raindrops pounded the umbrella, the noise drowning everything out. The light flickered, bright then dim, yet Bo Zhaoran still heard him clearly: "How dare you use the same trick twice?"

Then he turned and walked away, though somehow a trace of moisture had appeared on the knuckles gripping the umbrella handle.

-

But later, when a work trip happened to put them in the same hotel, Bo Zhaoran stumbled into his arms, her forehead burning.

Qin Zhiheng drew her into his arms and soothed her gently, whispering against her ear as they cuddled close. "A-Zhao, happy birthday."

The next day, when Bo Zhaoran woke up, a cold, imposing figure stood beside the bed. His attitude was completely different as he said, his meaning unclear, "Breaking into my place in the middle of the night?"

"I'll give you a discount for old times' sake. An overnight stay costs extra."

Bo Zhaoran: ???

He had seen the thick, fleeting love hidden in her eyes beneath the snow-capped mountains.

This long, drawn-out revenge was the last bit of love she had left to give herself.

A self-deluding, expert-mind-gaming prosecutor VS a lawyer who pretends to be clearheaded but is hopelessly lovestruck

Rekindled romance / friends with benefits turn into something more after reuniting / sweet 1v1

*Has It Rained Today? means: I'm saying I want to see you.

-I miss her so much today, but I don't dare go see her. I'm afraid that if she finds out, she won't dare keep loving me. I really want A-Zhao to turn around and look at me of her own accord.-Z's + secret

Novel blurb:

(1)

Snow fell heavily across Seattle, blanketing everything in white. At a friend's invitation, Ji Mianzhi went to the foot of a snowy mountain to see the aurora.

The crowd surged around her, swallowing her up. Brilliant colors spread across the sky, and then she caught sight of a blurry profile.

Her friend froze for a moment, then shook her head and said she was being delusional.

Six years after they parted, Jiang Lin had become a renowned young talent in the Jinggang Military District, a rising star and the youngest squadron leader in the entire Air Force. Meanwhile, she had been recruited for her talent as an aircraft designer in the Jinggang Air Force's strategic forces.

She watched the man who had once smiled and chatted with her so warmly turn to her with a detached expression and say, "Excuse me."

Then he turned and got into a car alongside the woman the outside world was calling his fiancée, laughing and chatting with her.

(2)

After returning to China, on a deep, seemingly endless street, with the rain drumming dully against the sealed car, Jiang Lin paid no heed to anything around him. He pressed close to her, gently wiped away her tears with his own hands, and said, "Ji Mianzhi, even after all these years, I really do miss you so much."

(3)

Ji Mianzhi had a childhood nickname: A-You, with the you meaning forgiveness.

After learning the reason, Jiang Lin stubbornly called her Youyou, using the you meaning protection.

The marriage blessings at Guangji Temple were said to be especially powerful. After she left, Jiang Lin stubbornly made the temple his faith, filling scroll after scroll of Buddhist scriptures with her name.

*On a bitterly cold winter's day, all I want is to lose myself by your side and sleep through the turning seasons.

Bonus scene:

After a fight, Jiang Lin hurried off to a faraway place, waiting for Ji Mianzhi to come and make up with him. He told himself he had to act aloof this time, so she wouldn't think he was that easy to win back.

But reality was harsh. In the freezing cold, with temperatures well below zero, Jiang Lin stood outside the airport every day, sniffling and looking dejected as he counted the days on his fingers, waiting for his wife. He asked himself eighty times a day: Why hasn't she come yet? Does she really not want me anymore? How can that be!

Then, on the night after his wife finally arrived, Jiang Lin proudly dragged in a rickety little bed and announced they would sleep separately. He called it: keeping the thieves away.

Ji Mianzhi: "..." I shouldn't have grabbed those two boxes from the supermarket in the first place.

I'm terrible at writing blurbs, I'm terrible at writing blurbs, I'm terrible at writing blurbs. Important things need to be said three times.
