Daytime Sleepwalking

[Childhood friends | He has a secret crush | Bittersweet push and pull]

A schemer who keeps a straight face while doing her laundry × a slow-on-the-uptake chatterbox who makes things up as she goes

Shen Youyi is a longtime admirer of handsome men.

Ever since she was old enough to remember, every good-looking guy who crossed her path had been the object of her loud, joking declarations of love.

Except her childhood friend, Zhou Yujue.

Shen Youyi figured it was because she had known Zhou Yujue from such a young age that their friendship was too pure for her to develop a crush on him.

In Zhou Yujue's first eighteen years, only two things had ever bothered him.

First, Shen Youyi had gotten tired of looking at his face at such a young age, so he never made it onto her list of crushes.

Second, he'd been given a name with “sun” in it, which meant Shen Youyi, who loved sunsets, was never going to fall for him.

But when Shen Youyi mentioned her 101st crush, Zhou Yujue finally couldn't take it anymore.

“Am I ever going to make it onto your list of crushes?”

On a day of torrential rain, Zhou Yujue arrived at Shen Youyi's door soaked through.

His damp bangs hung over his forehead, hiding the murky look in his eyes and making him seem a little aloof. His slightly see-through T-shirt clung to his body, outlining his lean, youthful build.

Shen Youyi looked once, then looked again.

Zhou Yujue acted as if he hadn't noticed a thing. “Got a lazy eye?”

After Zhou Yujue had made one too many conspicuously casual appearances in front of Shen Youyi, she finally realized something was up.

“Are you trying to seduce me?”

Zhou Yujue wasn't annoyed at being found out. He bent down and brushed a kiss against Shen Youyi's fair cheek.

“Did I succeed?”
