"Rain and mist rise all around, and your eyes say you love me."
★Proud, jealous heartthrob VS prickly rose
Rekindled love | Secret-crush redemption | Beauty gone wild
*
Everyone at Beichen High knew that Xie Jiuci and Li Yisheng couldn't stand each other.
He was a brazen, spirited young man, dazzling and pursued by countless admirers. She was cool and unruly, someone everyone avoided like the plague.
No one knew the secret between them.
Just as no one knew that in late summer that year, a torrential rain fell and dense fog swallowed their small town.
Beneath the dim yellow lights, the gale broke the boy's proud spirit. Xie Jiuci curled his lip in self-mockery. "You aren't even willing to lie to me once?"
Dressed in a flamboyant red dress, Li Yisheng dug her nails into her palm and left without looking back.
*
They met again five years later.
He had shed his youthful innocence. Born with an air of nobility, he was still the brightest presence in any crowd.
He walked past her indifferently, not even bothering to raise his eyes.
Li Yisheng forced herself to make small talk. "Long time no see."
"Long time, no see?" The man laughed derisively, making no effort to spare her feelings. "That's a pretty lame excuse to hit on me."
Things had changed, and so, without a word, they agreed to keep out of each other's way.
Until one day, Xie Jiuci happened to catch sight of her on a video call with her foster brother. The composure on his face finally crumbled.
In an empty room, light and shadow lay scattered and broken. He leaned in and pinned her in his arms, looking down at her as he demanded,
"What does he have that I don't?"
*
Later, rumors swirled in business circles that the Xie and Zhou families were arranging a marriage alliance.
By the time Li Yisheng saw Xie Jiuci, it was already late at night.
His eyes were dark as ink, his jaw tightly set. He uttered three words: "Run away with me?"
In a top-floor hotel suite, someone tugged the straps of her red dress down from her shoulders. Kiss after kiss fell all over her body.
The temperature climbed steadily. Their breaths mingled, and Li Yisheng's voice came in broken phrases, its final note trembling uncontrollably.
"No..."
Xie Jiuci stopped, the emotions in his eyes flickering. "You should be glad you haven't left it too late to change your mind."
He suddenly pulled away. At last, Li Yisheng could no longer hold back. "We don't have to run away. We can get married openly and honorably."
After that night, Li Yisheng went to the Zhou family and changed back to her real name: Zhou You'an.
-
Outsiders all said she had been the one to pursue him, but few knew that even while they were apart, Xie Jiuci had loved Li Yisheng with the same sincerity and passion, for many, many years.
[Loving you is the final letter I write as I drown willingly in summer.]

Childhood friends | Secret-crush redemption | Beauty gone wild

Ji Fan lived at her grandmother's house for fifteen years, growing up alongside Chen Shuo next door.
In early autumn when she was sixteen, her parents came to take her home. Overwhelmed, Ji Fan slammed the door and ran out.
Chen Shuo found her in a field of reeds. Her eyes were red, and she was sobbing without restraint.
The boy looked down at her for a long while before sighing. "Stop crying, okay?"
Ji Fan felt her heart warm and parted her lips. But before she could say anything, Chen Shuo added,
"You're hurting my eyes."
Ji Fan: "?"
*
Soon after starting university, Ji Fan accidentally stumbled upon a couple flirting in a corner of the hallway.
Startled, she hurriedly covered her eyes and apologized over and over.
Unexpectedly, a familiar voice came from above her, low, magnetic, and languid with amusement as it called her by her nickname.
Ji Fan looked up and fell into those soulful, enchanting eyes.
Chen Shuo from Beichen University's music department had made a name for himself at a young age and had admirers everywhere, with women constantly flocking around him.
Quiet, reserved Ji Fan from the foreign languages department was his complete opposite.
No one thought they would ever have anything to do with each other.
Until one day, someone saw Ji Fan with red-rimmed eyes, her voice sharp and out of control. "How many times have I told you? Can't you remember? I'm the only one you should see!"
And Chen Shuo, usually so aloof and untouchable, bent down and embraced her in front of everyone, utterly submissive.
"Good girl, I remember. I won't go to these parties anymore."
*
Paparazzi caught rising star Chen Shuo returning home with a mysterious woman, sparking rumors that wedding bells were near.
The internet split into opposing camps. Haters dug up Ji Fan's family information and openly accused Chen Shuo of using his looks to get ahead. He lost countless fans in an instant.
When Ji Fan saw the news, she smiled bitterly.
"What should we do? It looks like I've ruined your dream."
At that, Chen Shuo glanced up from beside her, looking at her lazily.
Night fell, and the reeds in their hometown swayed. After thinking it over and over, Chen Shuo responded to the rumors about his relationship for the first time. Two minutes later, the topic exploded across the trending page.
[Chen Shuo V: To be honest, more than being a celebrity, I want to be a singer with real talent. But what I want most is to be your partner. So thank you for making my dream come true. @Ji Fan]
Reader's Guide:
1. I'm terrible at writing blurbs and may revise this later. The story itself won't change.
2. The story involves the entertainment industry. The leads are a devoted 1v1 couple. There are no real-life inspirations, so please don't draw comparisons.
3. From campus to the city.
4. Slow-burn romance, a sweet little story without major misunderstandings or conflict.

Theme: Don't just say you like someone. Say you love them.
This is a long review that has been coming for a long time. Mainly because my memory is not very good sometimes, so I basically read a little and write a little manuscript for fear of forgetting. First of all, I wish our Xiao Xie and Sheng Bao a happy life every day. I also want to thank the narrator of the story, An An. I also hope that An An will not be trapped by worries in the days to come and be a girl as free as the wind. I would like to say quietly that this is the first time I write a long review. There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand readers, and I am the same. Let me talk about Sheng Bao in my eyes first. To me, Sheng Bao is the kind of girl who is beautiful and generous but also very aggressive. She can become an independent and self-reliant heroine, or she can cuddle up next to Xiao Xie, but in my opinion, it depends on whether they love each other, and fortunately they do. Let's talk about Xiao Xie in my eyes. At first, I thought Xiao Xie was more like a rose with thorns all over his body. I don't know if this is the right description (because I originally described Xiao Xie as a cactus with thorns). He is mean and venomous, but that is just a superficial phenomenon. I think in fact, he is a super soft and super soft boy in his heart, a boy who can love others, and only loves Shengbao. (To be honest, Xiao Xie gave me the illusion in the early stage that "I could tell he was a princess") No matter what caused their separation, the indescribable sense of fate brought the two together again. How can this not be considered a fate given by God? The young lovers will last forever. Secondly, the writing style of this article is really a bit aesthetic. All the scenes are superimposed together, like watching a long movie, but it is silent, but even so, I still think it is very beautiful. To borrow a topic, I think the descriptions of food in the article are all delicious. I would like to ask An An, where can I buy that red bean cake? Want to eat. Although the novel only has more than 400,000 words, and we have only seen the content of these 400,000 words, where we cannot see, their lives continue, and they continue to love each other. Maybe they will cuddle up to each other until the end of time, walk to watch the sunset together, travel together, etc., But I hope they can love themselves well and love each other forever. Actually I want to add one more thing. I would like to dedicate this book to those young lovers who were separated but reunited in the past days. I wish you bright and prosperous days ahead. I also wish An An will get better and better in the days to come. The next book will definitely break through 10,000 copies, be on the gold list, and be sold in physical form. Dear An An! ——Stay on October 7, 2024
Great, broke the 5,000 mark 💪 💪
Kiss An'an, kiss Shengbao, kiss everyone... I can't kiss Xiao Xie, Shengbao kisses me for me 😳 Let me make a long comment to catch it [Spread flowers] I'm a little girl who likes commentaries. She feels like she talks too much 🥺 The commentary made me feel like I had entered their world and felt their joys, sorrows, and joys. Everything was very real. I like Sheng Bao's independence and self-reliance. Sheng has obviously changed a lot. In the front, she has the feeling of a super heroine. I like it. In the back, she has a cute baby who can act coquettishly. I kissed her and I like it even more. I like Xiao Xie's three-dimensional outlook. 🌈 He asked Sheng Bao to love herself, but he made Sheng Bao love herself! Who knows... Every time I think of this, the word "good man" comes up, hahaha. Add someone like Chen Meng hahaha, Mengmeng is a cute baby! I feel like her personality is very similar to Mengmeng 🤩 She is a pure funny girl! But this is also good! I hope she continues to be happy, and I also hope that I It doesn't count as writing a long review! I have a lot to say, but I don't know what to say. It's all without saying anything... Hahaha Looking forward to the next book, open, open, open, open, open, open, say important things three times Dear An An Jiang, I love you, love you, love you, love you. Say the important things four times and say the truth 😍. You must be happy every day! Definitely. Bangbang is getting better and better!
It's almost time for the 8888 gift, hahahaha! 🤩 😏
Happy New Year. I will definitely break the 10,000 mark a year ago.
I watched it one after another, it's really beautiful!! Looking forward to An An's next work [][]
I believe you will get better and better! Come on
I didn't catch it, ah, ah, I cried 😭 and went to cook a bowl of Chaos Kung Fu 😭 😭
If the cutoff is not 5,000, then settle for 5,200 🐶
