Sleeping Through the Rain on a Spring Mountain

[A slow-blooming romance | Eight-year age gap | Sweet, wholesome slice of life]

Xiang Zhen is a sharp-tongued fashion blogger and womenswear designer, with a temper she's had since childhood.

On a research trip to a Dong village in southern Guizhou, she buys an embroidered patch and gets inspired.

She also meets a model collaborator who's thoughtful in every way.

He tells her, “If you're unhappy, lose your temper. I don't mind you being a little fierce with me.”

But lately she's been getting annoyed. Why hasn't he confessed yet?

Because of family ties and a sense of responsibility, Wu Yu doesn't dare think too much about what might happen in the future.

Falling for Xiang Zhen is beyond his control.

But she's so young, and a long-distance relationship would be unfair to her.

It isn't until her ex-boyfriend shows up that he realizes:

He can't hold back. He was never cut out for that.

[First meeting]

When they first meet, she wants to buy an embroidered patch from an exhibition that isn't for sale.

She says, “Just sell me one. One, that's all. Please?”

He says, “I'm afraid I really can't.”

She falls silent at once. Her instincts tell her that pleading won't help.

[Dating]

On the third day of their relationship, she still has a slight fever, but wants to see the Dong New Year tradition of pounding rice cakes.

She says, “Wu Yu, I've never seen it before~”

It's so cold. He really shouldn't let her go out, but what he says is, “All right, but promise me we'll only stay for an hour, then head back.”

He is her mountain, and she is his little storm.

Together, they sleep beneath the spring mountain, listening to the rain.
