Meeting You

[Cover art thanks to Weibo: Shen Zhixu-] ???

Such a lovely young lady~

Today! August 13! Is a wonderful day! Let’s wish Tang Xin bb a happy birthday!!!

This is my first work. It has two male leads, and both couples are great to ship.

Song Yishen is Tang Xin’s good friend. Don’t ship them! Don’t ship them! Don’t ship them! Important things must be said three times! (This one might not update as quickly as my other novel, so please bear with me~)

Main couple: Tang Xin (sweet on the outside, dark underneath, a bottom who doesn’t say what he feels)

X

Lu Xiangrong (jealous king, a top who pretends to be pitiful)

Side couple: Xie Yi (a big doofus, an unromantic bottom)

X

Song Yishen (a narcissist, a top who pretends to be aloof)

In short: all the tops are fakes. No wonder they don’t have girlfriends.

The bottom is cheerful at first, but later becomes self-deprecating because he has stomach cancer and feels he isn’t good enough for the top. The top has a puppy-like personality at first. Since the bottom is always convinced he doesn’t deserve him, the top becomes more forceful about love later on.

The main couple could also be considered sworn enemies.

The bottom’s background:

Tang Xin is handsome, though not as handsome as Song Yishen, and he’s a super genius at school! How much of a genius? Well, his father is a professor and his mother has a doctorate, so I think you can guess how well Tang Xin does in school~

Tang Xin has a younger sister named Tang Tang, and she’s just as sweet as her name. Not only is she pretty, she’s kindhearted too, a total sweetheart. Their family is very happy~

But! Their happy days don’t last. Both their parents die in a car accident. Tang Xin feels as if his heart is about to stop when he hears the news, but he still has his sister to care for. He has to look after her. Then, just as he leaves the hospital, a call comes in. When he answers, his heart twists painfully at the words from the other end: “Your sister has ALS.” From then on, he has to study, work part-time, and take care of his sister all at once...

By chance, Tang Xin takes part in a junior high math competition against students from other schools. At that event, he truly meets Lu Xiangrong, the top student at Dingping Junior High.

Two years pass, and Tang Xin never sees Lu Xiangrong again, so naturally he forgets him (not really). Lu Xiangrong, however, still remembers him. When Lu Xiangrong skips a grade and transfers into the senior class, he’s happy, but also a little sad and hurt because Tang Xin doesn’t remember him (not really). He feels like a total joke.

The top’s background:

Compared with Tang Xin, Lu Xiangrong’s family is a terrible place to grow up. His father used to get drunk and hit people for no reason, his mother gambled every day, and even his grandmother played mahjong. He never received even the slightest bit of love growing up. Living in darkness for so long gave him claustrophobia. Then he met Tang Xin, who gave him endless care and warmth. Gradually, Lu Xiangrong’s family also recognized their problems. Later, his family became a powerful business family, and his parents stopped opposing his relationship with Tang Xin, at least on the surface. So...

Our Lu starts pursuing Xin!

But for certain reasons, Tang Xin is forced to leave Lu Xiangrong. Lu Xiangrong is heartbroken but refuses to give up, so he transfers into Class Five of senior year to win him back...

Read the book to find out about Song Yishen and Xie Yi! Their story is sweet too~

Reader’s guide:

1. Warning: This is not a completely sweet story. There’s angst in the middle. If you want something sweet all the way through, please look elsewhere. The bottom is the biological child of his parents.

2. I don’t mind people shipping couples, but shipping a weird pairing is going too far. A reminder: Song Yishen and Tang Xin are just friends, and nothing more. Don’t ship them!

3. Meeting You is the title the author changed it to. It wasn’t called that originally.

4. Just read the story. Don’t argue or start fights in my comments, or you’ll be responsible for the consequences.

5. No spoilers. My writing needs work, so please be understanding if the writing isn’t great at first.

6. No insults. Plagiarism is strictly forbidden.

Lastly, I’ll report inappropriate comments. If you see any, please take a moment to report them too. I hope everyone can get along peacefully~

Theme: You reached me before the sunlight did.
