Hong Kong Island campus life, urban setting, light and sweet romance
A cocky guy who talks himself into things x a fussy little princess who judges people by their looks
Back in the day, news that Xu Qingzhi and the Wen family's heir had broken up rocked Hong Kong's second-generation social circles. She flew off to Paris, while he declared that if they ever got back together, he'd jump into Victoria Harbour.
Later, Xu Qingzhi returned home after finishing her studies. At her welcome-back dinner, someone rudely asked whether the two of them were still in touch. Xu Qingzhi smiled innocently. "Wen Yixiao? I've almost forgotten what he looks like."
Their childhood friends all teased her. Even Young Master Wen had to take a hit when it came to Xu Qingzhi.
Little did they know that that very night, at the Wen family's villa on the Peak, the man was curled up on the sofa, looking down at the girl crying in his arms. A smile tugged at his lips. "Xu Qingzhi, didn't you say you'd forgotten what I look like?"
Xu Qingzhi clutched his shirt and raised her tear-filled eyes. "I had a fight with Daddy, and I have nowhere to go..."
He raised an eyebrow. "And?"
Xu Qingzhi immediately wiped away her tears and sat up straight in his arms. Looking utterly aggrieved, she said, "I want dessert from that place in Sham Shui Po." After a pause, her eyes turned red again. "A double serving of black sesame soup and mango pomelo sago, please."
The man was so exasperated he almost laughed. He pinched her chin. "Miss, have you forgotten that we broke up three years ago?"
She blinked, tears still clinging to her lashes. "Then why did you hug me just now?"
"..." He was at a loss for words.
The next day, their friends cautiously asked, "...Are you two back together?"
Wen Yixiao scoffed. "Back together? Who'd want to get back together with her? She's a spoiled brat with a terrible temper."
"...Then what's with the ring of bite marks around your neck?"
He raised his eyes lazily. "She wanted to bite me, so I let her. What about it?"
Everyone: "???"

Xu Qingzhi was a spoiled brat, but that was about her only flaw. She was just really into handsome faces.
When she dated Wen Yixiao back then, she was thirty percent sincere and seventy percent in it for his looks. After they broke up, she thought she'd long since forgotten him. But when she returned to Hong Kong and saw that bewitching face again, her heart skipped a beat.
Xu Qingzhi thought, sleeping with him just once shouldn't count as going back to an ex, right? After all, her ex had an eight-pack, a sculpted waist, and plenty of tricks.
Later, she thought, just one more time. One last time.
One late night, Wen Yixiao held her by the waist and showed her just how wrong she was. His voice hoarse, he asked in her ear:
"Xu Qingzhi, you tell me: how many 'last times' has this been now?"
