Seventeen Vine Moon

Jiang Li first met Liang Zhou Yue while she was uncomfortably dressed in a gown, hiding in his resting room to adjust her attire. 
Seeing him, she became so nervous that she couldn't pull up the zipper, her embarrassment palpable. 
That day, Jiang Li felt an unusual tug at his heartstrings and helped her with the zipper twice. 
Upon their next encounter, he was the campus prince, and she was everyone's darling. 
He played basketball on the field, while she, in her flowing dress, sat in her boyfriend's passenger seat. 
It was then that Jiang Li understood he had to see things through to the bitter end. 
To seize love forcefully, to take advantage of her vulnerability. 
After all, such a beautiful woman should naturally belong to him. 

Liang Zhou Yue never thought she would be liked by a man five years her junior. 
He was rebellious, cold, proud, and remote, but he always responded to her every request. 
On a hot summer day, Liang Zhou Yue was stopped by a downpour at the entrance of the teaching building, with swirling filthy water and sludge on the steps below. 
As she worried about how to return to her dorm, a man's rigid spine bent in front of her. 
Jiang Li's tone was always so languid, casually stirring distress: "Sister, I'm afraid you're scared. I especially came to carry you home today." 
In that moment, Jiang Li, who had never gotten close to a girl before, submitted to her before everyone.

Deliberate Infatuation

Liang Zhouyue ultimately didn't need Jiang Li to come in and rescue her, as the bathroom was fully equipped and many items were still sealed and unused, so there was no need for help.


She washed up quickly, cleaned the bathroom, and then came out drying her hair.


Jiang Li hadn't left, he was sitting on the sofa looking at his phone. Hearing her coming out, he looked up at her.


Liang Zhou Yue had already changed into the new dress he had brought for her; overall, the size was quite fitting. But the process of coming out of the bathroom after a shower was strange, giving her the feeling of a boyfriend waiting for her to try on clothes in a shopping mall.


Liang Zhouyue walked slowly, trying to use the hair-drying act to avoid the possibility of eye contact, saying, "I'm done, your turn to shower."


By the end of her sentence, she almost bit her tongue.
