Getting Through a Sunny Day

Lin Yurong has always known she's a hopeless romantic.

She has watched herself fall deeper into a doomed relationship, fully aware of what she was doing. But who says she could never give up?

At their final meeting, she said, "Back in high school, our politics teacher said something I've always remembered. No one can step into the same river twice. So, Lu Qiancheng, this time I'm really giving up."

As life rises in spirals and moves forward in waves, she has taken a few wrong turns, but she won't look back.

She believes countless sunny days still lie ahead in her life.

No one can step into the same river twice.

Innocent and determined x worldly and mature

After yet another job interview, Lin Yaoyao tosses her resume aside and decides to become a freelance planner. She vows to hate every capitalist who is good at making empty promises!

So when the boss of Jiming Digital calls her, she stands firm and declares loudly:

"Sorry! I've decided to become a freelancer who refuses to bow to convention and bravely pursues her dreams! Stop making me empty promises! I don't even like pancakes!"

Afterward, Lin Yaoyao regrets it terribly.

Surely nothing could be worse than getting drunk and making a scene in front of a stranger.

Then she discovers that something is even worse:

The person she made a drunken scene in front of was right there watching her.

Wen Jiqing went from a small-town exam ace to a company owner. Having suffered through poverty in the past, all he cares about now is profit. But after getting rained on so many times himself, he's willing to hold an umbrella for others as long as it doesn't hurt his bottom line. Round it up, and he's practically an ethical young entrepreneur.

Still, he'd long since cast aside his old pursuit of dreams. To him, dreams were just an abstract, alluring concept, a convenient promise to dangle in front of people.

Until he met an innocent yet determined young woman

while she was making a drunken scene in front of him.

Wen Jiqing has seen countless resumes, most of which he only glances at before moving on. But he carefully kept Lin Yaoyao's.

One day, with nothing else to do,

Lin Yaoyao barges into his office and finds the resume she submitted to Jiming Digital so long ago.

Stunned, she slaps it against Wen Jiqing's chest. "What is this supposed to mean?"

Wen Jiqing chuckles. "It means... a token of our love?"

Lin Yaoyao is speechless.

Has he lost his mind? Who uses a resume as a token of love?

Tips:

1. The names were chosen mainly because they sound nice. The heroine's name comes from the phrase "the evening bell rings faintly in the distance."

2. Set in Wuhan. Lin Yaoyao speaks the Wuhan dialect at home and Mandarin outside. Read with caution if that's a dealbreaker.
