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

Regarding her pregnancy, Wu Tong's recent behavior had become subtly different.


Initially, she disliked the idea of pregnancy, even believing they would not keep the child, but after over three months of personal contact, she had to admit she felt emotionally attached to the child.


She had never told anyone about her anticipation for this little life, not even Jiang Yun. She'd harbored beautiful fantasies about the child's birth.


It was only when Jiang Li asked that he realized how unusually thin Wu Tong was. It was nearly four months, and she hardly showed at all, only slightly fuller around the waist than usual.


"Is Jiang Yun mistreating you? That's why you are so thin?"


With the elder brother not around, it was a great moment for Jiang Li to tease.


At these words, Wu Tong's eyes momentarily glazed over, her deep brown eyes narrowed slightly, as if recalling something, she slowly shook her head, "He's been unexpectedly good to me."
