[Rekindled Romance | Bad Boy × Sweet Girl]
As an office drone, Zhou Jianxia suffered a relapse under pressure from her idiot boss, clients, and everything else, and ended up hospitalized after a breakdown.
The doctor told her she had to take good care of her stomach.
She stared at the group-buy food order on her phone and her bank balance, lost in thought.
Then one day, a new home-style meal service opened downstairs from her apartment. The delicious aromas drew Zhou Jianxia in, and the little dining room gained an “older child.”
Zhou Jianxia loved the food cooked by the auntie who ran the place. It was delicious and even sparked her creativity.
Until one day, her dining companion changed from a ten-year-old kid to her twenty-five-year-old ex-boyfriend.
The man showed up uninvited in an immaculate white shirt, his expression cool and distant, just like back then.
Even though she loved the food that day, for the first time she left some on her plate.
The auntie who cooked asked with concern why. Avoiding the man's gaze, Zhou Jianxia replied awkwardly, “My appetite's not great today.”
Her ex-boyfriend, sitting across from her, spoke up. “What, my cooking doesn't suit your taste anymore?”
Zhou Jianxia tried to get away, but the man grabbed her arm.
“Seeing the man you abandoned back then, and you've got nothing to say?”
Zhou Jianxia: “...”
In the sixth year since Jin Yi and Zhou Jianxia had broken up, he happened to come across a photo of the little dining room shared by a relative on Moments. At once, he noticed the smiling woman at the edge of the group photo.
Without a moment's hesitation, he got up and quickly booked a flight back to China.
He even cooked her favorite dishes from when they were together before she arrived.
Theme: Even when life gets busy, remember to take care of yourself.
