Out of Control

The year Lin Yan graduated from high school, she gathered up her courage and confessed to Shen Yushu.

Shen Yushu was several years older than Lin Yan and had seen through the young girl's feelings long ago. He was trying to figure out how to turn her down. After a moment's silence, he said, "You're still young. You haven't met many men, so you should try spending time with boys your own age. I'll pretend I didn't hear what you said tonight. I think of you as my little sister, so don't have those kinds of feelings for me."

Shen Yushu had no idea that before long, he would regret those words more than anything.

Blurb 1:

Lu Yanxing's grandfather and Jiang Ningyue's grandfather were sworn friends. When they were young, they decided to strengthen their bond by arranging an engagement between their grandchildren.

But Lu Yanxing hated arranged marriages that were made without the consent of the people involved.

So at the age of twenty-seven, when he returned from a work trip abroad, the first thing he did was break off the engagement.

The old man was furious, but he knew Lu Yanxing's personality. Lu wasn't asking for permission to end the engagement; he was simply informing him.

Knowing he couldn't change Lu Yanxing's mind, the old man adopted Jiang Ningyue as his godgranddaughter to make it up to her. He also made it his mission to find her an outstanding young man every day.

Blurb 2:

After Lu Yanxing and Jiang Ningyue broke off their engagement, the first time they met again was at the celebration of Jiang Ningyue's grandfather's eightieth birthday.

Jiang Ningyue wore a white dress, her soft hair tucked behind her ears. She smiled with curved eyes as the summer breeze stirred her hem.

She walked past Lu Yanxing. The breeze carried a faint fragrance to him, and for some reason he couldn't stop noticing it as he breathed.

He raised his eyes and watched Jiang Ningyue walk away.

His friend followed his gaze and said, "That's Jiang Ningyue, Grandpa Jiang's granddaughter. Your fiancée."

Then he remembered Lu Yanxing had already broken off the engagement, and corrected himself. "No, your ex-fiancée."

Lu Yanxing's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, and he suddenly felt a little irritated.

Blurb 3:

Jiang Ningyue knew Lu Yanxing disliked her, so she never spoke to him first. Even when they met in public, she acted as if she didn't know him.

Until one day, she went to celebrate Old Master Lu's birthday and, by pure chance, ran into Lu Yanxing in the garden after dinner.

She acted as if they barely knew each other and couldn't be bothered to greet him, walking right past him.

But after she had taken just two steps, Lu Yanxing's voice came from behind her. "Miss Jiang, am I some kind of monster? Why do you always run away whenever you see me?"

Jiang Ningyue stopped and turned to face him, answering frankly, "I thought you didn't want to talk to me."

Lu Yanxing: "???"
