Lost on a Summer Night

Reunion after a long separation / rekindled love / marriage first, love later / secret crush / salvation / poor lawyer with no one to rely on * outwardly cool, inwardly disillusioned top-tier star and singer

1. July 20, 2015, was the day Lin Xia first met Zhang Zaiye.

A wind chime rang, and a boy with a guitar on his back stepped into Lin Xia's view.

The air was muggy, and then it suddenly began to rain.

Lin Xia had rushed out without an umbrella and was stuck in the guitar classroom. Her classmates left for home one after another.

In the end, only she and the boy were left.

Then she saw the boy in a white T-shirt lean down and ask, "Want me to walk you part of the way?"

2. Because of work, Lin Xia's client needed to send her a file through [redacted]. She logged into her long-neglected QQ account and found a friend request. The profile picture was blank, and the name was just an English letter: Stephen. His message said, "Hi, I'm Zhang Zaiye."

Zhang Zaiye was the boy she'd had a crush on for three years. He could play the piano, sing, and play basketball, and he was an excellent student. Every one of those things felt like a gulf between them.

So, after starting work, she hesitated before accepting his friend request and sent him one message: "I like you."

He didn't reply, but Lin Xia didn't mind. Confessing was enough to fulfill her own dream.

Then one day, for some reason, he suddenly came online and even replied, "Shall we get married?"

"You shouldn't meet someone so dazzling when you're young, but you're the exception."

1. Both the male and female leads have flaws. If you can't stand them at the beginning, you'll definitely still dislike them later. To save yourself some frustration, I recommend cutting your losses early.

2. Thank you so much for being willing to read this story. A deep bow to you all.
