Waiting for Dusk

"My unforgettable first love, my one and only, unwavering forever." - Zhou Jinchuan

Pei Sangyu never expected that, right after transferring schools and promising her grandfather she wouldn’t get into trouble, she’d turn around and offend Zhou Jinchuan, the most famous guy at the affiliated high school.

Rumor had it that he held grudges. Worried things might get out of hand, she took the initiative to make peace.

Before long, she was bringing him gifts, copying notes for him, and making dinner.

She even had to satisfy one of Zhou Jinchuan's bizarre demands: a half-hour phone call every night.

All their classmates, including Zhou Jinchuan himself, thought Pei Sangyu had fallen for him. Her friend urged her not to make trouble for herself. Countless people had confessed to him, but no one had ever won over that arrogant big shot.

"Chase him? Am I a masochist?" Pei Sangyu said, eyes on her practice exam, without even looking up.

One day, after a basketball game, Pei Sangyu followed Zhou Jinchuan all the way to the locker room.

Leaning against the door, she tugged on his clothes and effortlessly put on an obedient act. "I'll grant you one more favor, and then we'll be even."

"Sure." Zhou Jinchuan lowered his eyes to look at her.

"Like me, and I'll let it go."

When they met again, Pei Sangyu watched the boy grow into someone with sharper features. She wanted to get closer, but she no longer had the confidence to act spoiled and expect him to indulge her.

After several failed attempts to test the waters, she went straight to his home and risked everything, kissing the corner of Zhou Jinchuan's lips. "I'm paying you back for what I owed you."

Zhou Jinchuan stared deep into her eyes, then laughed in anger.

"One kiss, and you think we're even?"

"Dream on."

-

Whenever dusk fell, the boy would gaze toward the other end of Linglong Alley.

Waiting for the day she appeared alongside the sunset.

Lin Yuan once thought she never wanted to see Duan Qiye again.

After a brief, wild summer following the college entrance exams, they broke up on bitter terms and went their separate ways.

When they met again, she got drunk at a wrap party and ran into Duan Qiye in a sharp suit. Even his top-tier looks couldn't conceal what he was really like.

"Need any help? Miss Lin looks like someone slipped her something."

"I'm a little worked up." Lin Yuan deliberately put him down. "I'm about to call a man over to take care of it. If Mr. Duan wants to help, he'll have to compete for the job."

"How do I compete?"

Duan Qiye fixed his eyes on her flushed lips. "Miss Lin, teach me."

-

Lin Yuan suddenly became famous, and then came the insults and speculation. Everyone wanted to know which powerful man was backing her, and they were eager to dig up every last detail.

backstage at the awards ceremony, a friend saw the deep bite marks on Duan Qiye's neck and joked, "Director Duan, don't tell me you couldn't control yourself and bullied some young woman?"

Duan Qiye turned his head and saw Lin Yuan enter in a red dress. Their eyes met, and undercurrents stirred.

He leaned back casually and said for her to hear, "She treats me like a dog. So which one of us is bullying the other?"

-

After an accident, Duan Qiye lost most of his memories.

After enduring seven years of torment, he arranged to reunite with Lin Yuan.

It doesn't matter if she forgot.

She'll come back to the nest I've prepared so carefully.
