【Clearheaded beauty x crazy thrill-seeker】
Jiang Ying stayed at Chen Yanzhou’s home during high school.
At first sight, the boy stood at the turn of the spiral staircase, dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, polite and distant. His eyes passed over her as if she were air.
Later, she learned he had severe social anxiety. He was a math genius, but emotionally closed off, his heart a blank page.
She was short on money and options, so she seduced him.
Late at night, wearing his shirt, she sat in his lap. She taught him how to kiss, how to hug, and how to kiss her eyes when she cried.
He learned too quickly, clinging to her late into the night every evening.
This wouldn’t do. Jiang Ying was scared he might really think she belonged to him.
So she started teaching him other things.
But the more she taught him, the stranger Chen Yanzhou seemed to become.
Whatever. She’d deal with it later.
After graduating from university, Jiang Ying used a little trick to dump him, then took the money and went to Europe to study.
She put the past behind her and focused on her studies. Still, every week she received a stem of lisianthus, and she always felt someone watching her in secret.
Her roommate whispered, “Jiang Ying, I saw someone in the hallway just now. He was really handsome, but the way he looked at me… he didn’t look alive.”
She went to look, but the hallway was empty.
Only the vent at the far end stirred its blinds.
【Yingying has moved to three different cities and still hasn’t gotten rid of me. That means she doesn’t want to hide, she just wants me to chase her ^^】
【She hit me. Yingying said she’d only hit me because she loved me. She loves me so much.】
【Yingying said she hates me. How can there be hate without love? Her feelings for me have already gone beyond love. What comes next? Marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage, marriage】
