You, Right Now [Mending a Broken Relationship]

Clever, mischievous woman x secretly passionate man

During her lunch break, Zhu Yizhen was on a blind date at a cafe in the heavily air-conditioned lobby on the first floor. She glanced away for a moment and happened to see her ex-boyfriend passing by, surrounded by a crowd.

The blind date didn't go very well, but she didn't take it to heart.

As for running into her ex, they were both dressed impeccably, looking sharp, and pretended not to see each other. That was the best way for exes to meet.

Three days later, when the office was empty, a familiar man leaned against the doorway with a half-smile. "How could you possibly like a guy like that?"

She knew that smile all too well. When she was in a good mood, she wanted to scratch him; when she was in a bad mood, she wanted to hit him.

Zhu Yizhen rolled her eyes and flashed him a brilliant smile. "Do you mean the one from today, or the one from the other day?"

Chen Yue froze. His smile vanished in an instant.

When she was ten, she nimbly climbed over the balcony and made her way to his room as if she knew it by heart. She placed the two chocolates she'd been holding in her palm by his bed.

"My aunt brought these back from overseas. I'm sharing them with you. Hurry up and get up!"

"I've brushed my teeth."

"Then brush them again!"

When he was sixteen, he vaulted over the balcony with one hand, knocked on her door, then went inside.

"Your social studies project is done. I left it on your desk."

"Oh, and..." He hesitated. "I don't think I should keep coming over like this."

No one answered.

He walked over to the bed and saw her asleep beneath the bedside reading lamp, her phone still open to a novel.

Chen Yue was at a loss. Resigned, he tucked her exposed arm back under the covers, turned off her phone, and switched off the light.

When she was twenty-two, Zhu Yizhen hired a contractor to seal up the balcony.
