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

The next day after work, Liang Zhouyue drove to the supermarket alone. Jiang Li hadn't returned from the training ground yet, and they had agreed to meet at her house.


Recently, her younger brother, Liang Xingye, had been living at school, leaving the house temporarily empty. Mainly because Liang Zhouyue felt it was somewhat inappropriate to invite colleagues over for dinner at her boyfriend's place.


At five o'clock, just as she had neatly arranged the groceries, the sound of unlocking the door echoed. Jiang Li tossed his car keys at the entrance and bent down to change his shoes.


"Why are you alone?" Looking at the two large empty shopping bags beside Liang Zhouyue, he continued, "If I'd known they weren't going with you to the supermarket, I would have picked you up from the TV station."


With her slim arms and legs, it wasn't easy for Liang Zhouyue to carry two heavy bags upstairs.
