Healing / first-love reunion / getting back together

Reuniting with Song Zhiheng was completely unexpected for Shu Yi.

She'd thought the idea of running into your ex as the parent of one of your students was just an internet joke.

What was that line again?

"No wonder the child looks so familiar. They're the child of an old friend."

Shu Yi stared at Song Zhiheng's familiar features, lost in thought.

The man patiently reasoned with the little girl in front of him, his face full of tenderness.

In Shu Yi's imagination, this was what Song Zhiheng would be like as a father.

Gentle, patient, responsible.

Only in her imagination, she was the leading lady in his life.

"What are you thinking about, Ms. Shu? Your imagination hasn't changed at all after all these years."

Shu Yi bristled. "Didn't you say you were the child's parent?"

"Being a parent doesn't mean I'm the father. The child doesn't even have the surname Song."

"I thought you'd become a useless kept man, marrying into someone's family."

"I wouldn't be against it." Song Zhiheng nodded thoughtfully. "But I only want you to be the mother of my child."

"Get lost. No way," Shu Yi said stubbornly.

Song Zhiheng kissed Shu Yi, silencing the prideful things she was always saying. He murmured,

"Shu Yi, this time, hold on tight to me, okay?"

P.S.

1. Includes high school scenes, with a touch of bittersweet youth fiction.

2. Due to the male lead's personality, he sometimes can't find the words, and the heroine will give him a thorough dressing-down.

3. Both are devoted to each other. They were each other's first love and have no other exes.

4. The male lead comes from a troubled family and is insecure. The heroine is a happy little ray of sunshine.

Theme: Love is the moment when someone who feels inferior steps out of the darkness.
