Again [Mending a Broken Relationship]

#From aloof beauty to hopeless romantic#

*

At a class reunion, Lu Zhouxing drew a dare card: kiss a person of the opposite sex sitting next to you.

Seeing that Bu Anran was there, too, their classmates started egging him on, eager to see the drama unfold.

Bu Anran lowered her eyes and said coolly, "I don't mind."

With her just inches away, Lu Zhouxing filled his glass to the brim, tilted his head back and drained it. He filled it again, drank it dry, then coldly downed three penalty drinks.

-

Lu Zhouxing was famous at A University as an aloof beauty, as if nothing could catch his eye.

But Bu Anran refused to give up, chasing after him with unwavering persistence.

When news of their relationship spread across campus, their classmates didn't take it seriously and asked Lu Zhouxing to confirm it.

He merely said calmly, "She's too noisy. If I don't say yes, she nags until my head hurts."

There wasn't a hint of love in his words.

Later, they broke up. Everyone naturally assumed Bu Anran had grown tired of a relationship where she was the only one making an effort.

The truth was that Lu Zhouxing had just bought an engagement ring that day and hadn't even had a chance to take it out when Bu Anran broke up with him.

Everyone thought that, given Lu Zhouxing's proud and unyielding nature, there was no chance of them getting back together.

Until five years later,

Lu Zhouxing happened to give Bu Anran a ride to pick up her boyfriend, who was dead drunk at a bar.

Seeing how meekly she lowered her head, he finally lost his temper, grabbed the man by the collar, and threw him into the restroom.

He scoffed. "Weren't you so fierce just now? Why are you playing the meek little wife now?"

She raised her chin stubbornly and replied firmly, "Didn't you tell me to be more faithful in love?"

"He's no good."

"His lips are thin. He looks unfaithful."

"Love me, Ranran. My eyes, nose, and mouth are all written over with my deep love for you."
