I Posted a Search for a Book and Found My High School Crush

[A prickly, thin-skinned airhead x a straightforward succubus who is a late bloomer]

During the break before starting work, Chen Zhiyi went to the library every few days.

But there was one book she just couldn't find.

"Someone borrowed it ages ago and still hasn't returned it," the librarian said.

The book had been out of print for years and was impossible to buy anywhere. Chen Zhiyi had no choice but to make a post asking for help:

Who borrowed Volume Three of Silent Letters from the Shencheng City Library?

If you've finished reading it, could you return it soon? Thank you~

The post stayed on the front page for a few days, and the comments gradually piled up.

The top comment read: "I have that book."

She added the person as a contact and saw a familiar avatar and a familiar username. She froze for a moment.

Chen Zhiyi often felt that if she simply stopped thinking about him, she would forget him; and if she forgot him, she could start over.

Now that she thought back on it, how could she still remember the first time she saw him?

So clearly.

A line of text appeared in the chat window: "I've finished reading it. How should I get it to you?"

Chen Zhiyi's heart pounded. She worked up the courage to ask:

"Would you be free to meet in person?"

Thank you for appearing in my life.

Until the day we meet again somewhere, someday,

I love you.
