Secretly in Love with You

Blurb: [A love story between two ordinary people. The whole story is free and complete. If you enjoyed it, please leave a rating on my profile.]

Jiang Nian is a girl from an ordinary town, raised in a family that favors sons over daughters.

The day before the college entrance exam, Jiang Nian unexpectedly receives an email wishing her luck, but the sender's name is missing.

Thinking it must be from a classmate, Jiang Nian replies:

"Wishing you a bright future too."

The other person replies at once:

"Okay."

In September, Jiang Nian boards a train alone and heads to a school in the north.

There, she meets an upperclassman who shares her interests and hobbies. As it happens, he was the top scorer in the college entrance exam at their high school's previous year's graduation, and he's a steady, thoughtful person.

After that, whether at the library, the basketball court, or the sports field, the two of them are always together.

Before long, they naturally become a couple.

After they get married, Jiang Nian happens upon a note. It says:

"I hope Nian Nian will become my wife."

It was signed a long, long time ago.

So Chen Chen had liked her even back then.

He was the one who sent her that email before the college entrance exam, too.

"What you lose in the east, you gain in the west."

"I spent so long chasing the light, until I became that light myself."
