The first thing Liu Xiyue does after paying off her debt is go traveling.
She wants to spend a long vacation somewhere no one knows her.
But she should have known how much trouble that clingy pest would be...
Meng Jiangji clutches her passport. Seeing the expressionless girl in the photo, his hands tremble.
"What about me?"
Liu Xiyue dabs concealer on her neck, but it can't hide the obvious hickey. She frowns and looks at the person responsible. "What about you?"
"Where's my plane ticket?"
"Sorry, I don't have enough money to buy you a ticket too."
"Liu Xiyue, the one thing I have plenty of is money!"
Meng Jiangji rolls off the bed, baring his teeth in pain as he stuffs the passport into his trouser pocket.
Under the girl's calm gaze, his voice softens. "So wherever you go, you have to take me with you."
You can't abandon me.

The first time Meng Jiangji enters Liu Xiyue's tiny rental apartment, it's so cramped he can hardly breathe.
The second time, the wretched little bed digs into him unbearably.
The third time, the stuffy smell makes his throat tighten.
In short, he hates the place.
But when he kisses Liu Xiyue in that sweltering little room, hot enough to leave him nearly dehydrated, he forgets all about how much he hates it.
The next time he comes looking for her, he's told she's moved away.
Meng Jiangji goes crazy and immediately has someone buy the tiny apartment.
He's addicted, both to the little room and to her.
-
Meng Jiangji isn't part of Liu Xiyue's life plan.
Actually, she doesn't have a life plan.
"I'll just take things as they come."
"But you're my whole plan!"
