Click the author's profile to find it qaq The summer of her sophomore year, Li Ning's department finally moved from the suburbs back to downtown. On her first day at the new campus, she missed a step on the stairs. As she fell, a strong arm reached around from behind and caught her by the waist. Once she was steady, he let go with gentlemanly restraint. His voice carried a hint of coolness. "Sorry, I overstepped." Li Ning only had time to catch a glimpse of his profile beneath the brim of his lowered cap, and his tall, straight-backed figure as he walked away. She had an instant crush. After asking around, Li Ning found out who he was: Xu Shiyue, a celebrated figure in Yanda University's computer science department, aloof and untouchable, with countless girls at school chasing after him. Most importantly, he was single. And he was her younger brother Jiang Yuan's roommate. With the advantage of being close by, Li Ning launched an all-out pursuit. When Xu Shiyue played basketball, she brought him water. When he went to class, she sat in on it and made sure to bump into him. When he played games, she joined him. She tried every trick in the book, but he remained lukewarm. Li Ning gave up and, with a heavy heart, deleted his contact information. Then one night, the usually distant young man suddenly appeared outside her dorm. In the night, his eyes were dark as ink, and his jaw was tense. "Couldn't you have broken up with Jiang Yuan first?" Li Ning: Jiang Yuan... Isn't he my twin brother?! A few clarifications: 1. The male lead mistakes the female lead for his roommate's girlfriend. He keeps rejecting her coldly while desperately resisting the urge to become the other man in their relationship for love. 2. The male lead fell in love with the female lead at first sight long before the story begins. 3. A sweet university campus romance. 4. I'm terrible at writing blurbs. I really don't know how to do this QAQ 5. Slow burn. You can't please everyone, so if it's not for you, please leave. There are countless great stories on Jinjiang; don't force yourself to keep reading. Please add my next novel, A Winter Meeting, to your favorites!!! * Good Girl X Refined Scoundrel Before their wedding, Wen Jin had met Ye Jiajing only three times. The first time was at a charity gala. He was surrounded by admirers, proud and noble, with an extraordinary air about him. She looked at him curiously. The second time was at school. He returned to his alma mater as a distinguished alumnus, and her teacher asked her to accompany him. The third time, forced to break up with her boyfriend, she braved the pouring rain in the middle of the night and went to his mansion. She pleaded softly, "Mr. Ye, could you call off the engagement? You know we're not right for each other..." Ye Jiajing towered over her as he draped his coat around her, covering her rain-soaked, shivering body. His expression was calm and indifferent. "Miss Wen, I'm a businessman." It was a business alliance. Did compatibility even matter? Under pressure, Wen Jin gave in. For the next few years of marriage, life was as calm as still water. Until one day, her ex-boyfriend came back... Ye Jiajing pinned Wen Jin against the wall, forcing her chin up. She met his dark, brooding gaze and heard him say, "Did you really think I wanted a marriage alliance back then?" * Dramatic, possessive love * Marriage first, love later Theme: Everyone shines in their own way
