At seventeen, Xiang Wanxing fell for her childhood friend and sworn rival, Luo Wangfei.
He was handsome, clean-cut, and cheerful, with a hint of roguish charm when he smiled. He was polite and considerate to everyone, but around Xiang Wanxing alone, he was smug, sharp-tongued, and infuriating.
Everyone knew about their chaotic history of constantly bickering and picking on each other.
Everyone knew they could never be together.
At the school sports meet,
Luo Wangfei said in front of the whole school:
“I don’t know what kind of spell Xiang Wanxing put on my mom, but she dotes on her like she’s her own daughter. If anything happened to her, Mom would make me take my own life to atone for it.”
“Otherwise, I couldn’t care less about looking after her.”
That was when Xiang Wanxing realized her feelings were a mistake, and decided to put an end to them.
She grew much quieter and stopped picking fights with Luo Wangfei.
She became an ordinary friend, an ordinary neighbor.
Nothing more. No more trouble, no crossing the line.
But Luo Wangfei started acting strange.
On New Year’s Eve, with snow falling all around,
the boy who had always been so proud and arrogant lowered his head. His gaze was full of tenderness and pleading as he looked at Xiang Wanxing.
“Miss, what did I do to make you stay mad for so long?”
“I’m sorry, okay? Don’t be mad anymore. You can punish me however you want.”
Xiang Wanxing brushed him off, keeping her feelings to herself.
Once she said them aloud, they wouldn’t even be able to stay friends.
In the end, she buried all her love beneath their great friendship.
That was how things stayed until after graduation,
when she and Luo Wangfei chose universities at opposite ends of the country, thousands of miles apart.
With their parting imminent, Xiang Wanxing got thoroughly drunk.
Lying on the bed, she saw Luo Wangfei’s face and, in her drunken haze, thought she was dreaming.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.
“Luo Wangfei, now that I’ve kissed you, you’re mine. You can only like me, got that? Or I’ll haunt you even after I die!”
The door unlocked outside, and she heard the adults talking.
Xiang Wanxing sobered up in an instant, realizing this wasn’t a dream. She was at Luo Wangfei’s house.
In the living room, Luo Wangfei’s parents were lamenting that the two kids were drifting further and further apart, and that they were never meant to be.
In the bedroom,
now wide awake, Xiang Wanxing pushed at the boy’s chest, trying to get up and leave. “Are you crazy? Your parents are right outside! Easy! Don’t bite me!”
Luo Wangfei held her tightly, keeping her trapped in his arms. His gentle coaxing mingled with his burning kisses.
“Don’t worry, the soundproofing is great. They can’t hear us.”
“Come on, kiss me some more, Xiang Wanxing. I’m yours now.”

Here’s an upcoming title, Stealing a Kiss from Her: a guy’s secret crush
A cool, aloof guy in public and a love-struck, cocky guy in private × a sweet, shy, socially anxious girl
During the summer of his sophomore year, Lin Yiqing went to visit his good-for-nothing friend Xu Langfeng’s hometown.
There, he happened to meet Xu Langfeng’s younger sister, Xu Wanlai.
The girl had just turned eighteen and was still wearing her summer school uniform. Young and bashful, she blushed the moment she saw the group of strangers, didn’t even call her brother, and hurried off.
That was how everyone found out Xu Langfeng had a pretty younger sister.
She was just in poor health and painfully shy.
Everyone else rushed to call Xu Langfeng their future brother-in-law, trying to cozy up to him and cracking jokes.
Lin Yiqing alone kept his distance and said nothing.
Xu Langfeng was deeply impressed. He thought all his friends were a pack of lecherous wolves, and that Lin Yiqing was the only decent one.
Xu Langfeng didn’t know that after everyone else got drunk,
Lin Yiqing, still sober, knocked on Xu Wanlai’s door.
“Do you have any hangover medicine? They’re drunk,” Lin Yiqing said with a gentle smile. He happened to notice the game on her computer and added, “What a coincidence. Do you play this game too?”
That very night, Lin Yiqing added Xu Wanlai as a friend.
Later, Lin Yiqing started treating Xu Langfeng very well, and Xu Langfeng grew suspicious for a while.
But Lin Yiqing still acted like an aloof, untouchable heartthrob, showed no interest in women, and never mentioned Xu Wanlai.
No one could have guessed that this military academy genius had already found a girlfriend in the game.
On countless nights, Lin Yiqing would wear his headset, gaze at the two little figures embracing on his computer screen, and smile tenderly as he asked Xu Wanlai in a low voice, “Who’s the better big brother, me or your real brother Xu Langfeng?”
Theme: Treasure friendship, be self-reliant and strong
①The description of the scene change is unclear. One second he was reviewing in the playground, and the next second he was suddenly having a conversation about protecting his shortcomings. Did the characters argue in public? Seriously disrupts immersion and makes the entire story appear suspended. It is difficult for readers to put themselves into the character's situation, and the actions and emotions lack support.
②The male and female protagonists fight repeatedly, only focusing on "Do you really love me and are not playing tricks on me?" The plot stays in place, with Che Lulu talking back and forth. Conversations and interactions are monotonous and lack real conflict resolution, misunderstandings, and substantive progress in relationships. Like two hamsters trapped in an emotional wheel. It is extremely easy to get tired of aesthetics, and it seems that the character has a low IQ and EQ, not looking like a seventeen-year-old but like a seven-year-old. The plot is dragged out and watered down.
③It seems to have all the points that are down to earth, and there are no vicious supporting characters. In fact, the male and female protagonists are busy playing the forced love game of chasing and hiding all day long, and their minds are not on the books at all. Even the characterization and study are dry and unwilling to write more sentences. The actual boost from the first prize in the competition is almost zero. The halo of academic excellence has been reduced to a "golden finger", making learning worthless and meaningless, and insulting the efforts of real high school students.
④The male and female protagonists are childhood sweethearts and are rivals. They only have a very "empty dominance" over each other's eating habits. They seem to have no understanding of the heroine's abnormal behavior on a spiritual level. Why do you want this character who you have known for more than ten years? The repeated pulling becomes an opportunity to hurt people again and again. Not only does it fail to create a realistic sense of the heartbeat of a young man, but it is like inferior industrial saccharine covered with youthful skin. Where it fits your style guide for the article. In addition, the author has said that writing too much other content will really affect the reader's perception.
⑤The evil nature of the protagonist's behavior is extremely stingy. For example, why is he so obsessed with the heroine? The deep psychological motivation for his behavior? What's worse is that the heroine is completely incapable of being a top student in the face of coercion, which made me furious in Stockholm. The male protagonist later wakes up and turns from a venomous mouth to a selfish bastard with violent tendencies, which is in line with the female protagonist's "male secondary control" personality. Before the relationship is fully established, they engage in offensive behavior and verbal pressure. The heroine's later behavior is unconvincing. We only see her saying "no" verbally, but her body is "honest", or she suddenly falls in love with the other person after resisting for a few times. It is extremely abrupt and unreasonable, and it is completely impossible for readers to understand and sympathize with this "feeling".
⑥The campus has too many elements in ancient times, like a patchwork Mary Sue. There is nothing new, and the characters are highly "anti-" labeled, as if they are playing a Bingo game with elements of ancient school literature. All they have to do is put the original ancient labels in reverse. There is a lack of observation of current youth psychology and real campus ecology. Friends, please refuse to pay for "love" that is superficial and even conveys wrong values! The market needs campus love stories that are more thoughtful, more delicate, and more respectful of readers' intelligence.
If you don't write well, you should listen to opinions instead of just covering your mouth, which will only make people think that you have broken your defense. If your inner core is unstable, you cannot create an attractive character.
I really want to watch the extra story between Song Xi and Tang Chuan [Cat Head]
Xiaofengliu, I will be with you for the rest of my life
It's so well written that I can't get enough of it. The first and fifteenth day of the lunar month 99
Although I feel that the author's article is still a bit immature, for those who have had a crush experience, they can sympathize well with the male and female protagonists in it, and the psychological details of the characters are well described, especially the psychological changes of the female protagonist, which seems to be wild and unconstrained, but for a secret admirer, this is a very real emotional response, which makes people miss their childhood crush and some bitter memories. I look forward to the author's growth and new articles~
Will Tang Chuan and Song Xi have a solo date? [Poor] [Poor] [Poor]
! What did I hit! [Spread flowers] Sure enough, there are good things when you swipe your phone!
Will Tang Chuan and Song Xi be mentioned in the publication? [Please] [Crying] This is really important to me. [Crying]
Madam, are there any updates next door?
Squatting if line, my wife plans to write a few chapters.
