Blurb:
The Lin and Chen families of Beicheng had been negotiating their arranged marriage for a long time, and the wedding date was fast approaching.
Word was spreading through their social circle that Lin Yi, who had always treated the marriage as a joke, planned to call it off for the sake of a "jinxed woman." Plenty of people were waiting to see the Chen family humiliated.
Lin Jiali, the "jinxed woman" everyone talked about, gently advised Lin Yi to go home and attend the engagement banquet. "I hear Miss Chen is beautiful. You wouldn't be losing out by marrying her."
Lin Yi, who hadn't yet confessed his feelings to Lin Jiali, looked displeased. He ground his cigarette butt into the ashtray and said offhandedly, "I'm never marrying Miss Chen. No matter who says so, it won't happen."
Lin Jiali asked again, "Are you sure?"
Lin Yi replied firmly, "Absolutely sure."
Lin Jiali smiled without a word.
Not long after, another piece of news made the rounds of their social circle.
Lin Yi had climbed over the Chen family's wall in the middle of the night and broken his leg, all just to see Miss Chen.
Because... he no longer wanted to break off the engagement.
Bonus scene:
Lin Yi was in utter despair, lying in his hospital bed and beating his chest in frustration. "Why is Miss Chen's surname Lin?!"
Lin Jiali replied innocently, "The fortune-teller said my five elements were short on wood."
