Kiss Me When the Snow Falls

At the exam proctor's desk, Xia Zhi suddenly met Jiang Chi's gaze:

Fiery and direct, brimming with the reckless intensity of youth.

Like the blazing summer sun, it suddenly turned her calm, composed world upside down.

He pursued her openly, yet with painstaking care.

He sat in on her classes, waited at the library she often visited, tilted his umbrella to cover most of her on rainy days, and always kept a box of throat lozenges in his bag for her... He hid all his favoritism in the little details.

She kept firm boundaries, rejecting him gently but resolutely.

She offered mild admonitions in the sea breeze, revoked his permission to sit in on her classes, and politely turned down every personal invitation.

Calm and rational, she cut off every possibility of romance.

And yet, when she was unexpectedly injured at the sports meet, the sight of him rushing over in a panic still threw her into confusion.

"Jiang Chi, the way you're acting puts me in a difficult position, and makes me feel humiliated."

Her voice was cold as ice, deliberately ignoring the hurt in his eyes.

But he refused to let go. His presence was gentle yet insistently intense, following her like a shadow and leaving her nowhere to run.

To make him give up, she went to a matchmaking event for the first time in her life.

She smiled and told him she'd met someone she liked.

Heartbroken, he was driven almost to madness.

On a snowy winter day, his eyes red and his voice trembling, he asked:

"Xia Zhi, have you ever felt sorry for me, even for a single moment?"

Her heart twisted with pain, but all she could do was remain silent.

Then she turned and left for a distant shore, without saying goodbye.

Three years later, she returned home after completing her studies.

She arrived home late at night.

A tall figure silently emerged in front of her apartment door.

His suit was immaculate, defining the sharp line of his shoulders.

All traces of youthful awkwardness had vanished from his features, and he radiated the intimidating presence of a rising business tycoon.

Only in his eyes, as he looked at her, did the same fervor still burn, undiminished after three years.

He closed in step by step, trapping her between the door and his embrace. His scorching breath brushed her ear.

"Xia Zhi, now, is there anything still standing in our way?"

Xia Zhi's eyes widened. She was so stunned that she even forgot to push him away.

All her reason was consumed by the heat of the moment.

The man's kisses fell upon her wildly.

Scorching and urgent, they carried three years of longing, hurt, stubborn devotion, and desire.

For three years, through more than a thousand days and nights, he had never forgotten her for a single moment.
